@Mike-Davis said in Anyone have Fixed Wireless?:

I know a successful wireless ISP and basically in his part of the country it's cost prohibitive to get copper, let alone fiber, to his customers.

I have worked with a successful fixed wireless company in the past as well. it is most certainly a good solution as long as it is done correctly. Not really any different than any other solution. Do it right and it works well.

Exactly. It's almost all about the ISP in question, not the technology itself.

And to clarify for the naysayers. The ISP includes the installation.

Have you tried support.emc.dell.com?

Just kidding.

Good, that's those are the same issues I have with my pair.

Of the screen shots shown, I'm surprised to see the phone icon is missing - I guess you guys don't use the phone portion of your device much.

The phone icon is right on my home screen as well as my apps screen. Look at the first 2 screenshots.

Aww, it's on your home screen, but not in the dock (I'm assuming the icons down the left are sticky - i.e. always show).

The icons on the left are just categories. There's a category for communication, games, internet apps, etc.

These are the graphic designers and are Mac fanatics. I would have ditched them long ago if I could have.

Yeah, who needs graphics designers anyway.

Oh, did you mean the Macs?

It is something I looked at, but with no desire to try and enter an already overcrowded market, I passed on it.

Once upon a time, I know there was an A2Billing module of some kind for the FreePBX GUI for people to get info from their local installs with.

@scottalanmiller let's assume that we get direct application access from Word/Writer into SP or NC, how do you send a link to someone else so they know they have access? How do you register that 'link' in some way so that the correct application launches when trying to open the link?

How do you do it today? Why would it need to change at all?

Paying particular attention to Gene's wording, there would be no more files, only data in a DB. In that case, to send the information via email would mean extracting that data into some kind of usable format then emailing it.

So the contents of the file are simply sent as a file.... that's all a file normally is, a database holding text directly on it with a label on it with the filename. So.... literally nothing changes here under the hood. There is no more or less extraction than before.

You were weren't talking about getting rid of docx files and xlsx files, etc?

Yup, and still am. No files, but that doesn't mean that you can't have a file "view".

But OneDrive, etc still store those things as objects, I don't think you can edit the 'Word.doc' file directly inside the DB, you need to send that object of data to Word to edit it.

As objects, not as files. I don't need to pull the files from OneDrive to edit them. I can talk to the database directly with MS Office 2013 or later, even the online version.

Yeah Office is a bad example because of the massive integration.

Or a good example because it shows how easily it can be done and how well people can't even tell.

LOL - yeah, but you are limited to only MS based files, All other files are just stored as objects in the DB.

Are they? I'm not sure of that. But that's always going to be the case. File systems are for ad hoc, unplanned files. The real question should be... why do such files exist in your environment? When do you actually want ad hoc file types that you didn't expect?

Actually Sharepoint does not natively interface .doc files either. It only uses the new format .docx files in the manner you are saying.

Don't I know it.. I was playing with SharePoint and damn if I didn't have all kinds of problems with DOC files.

@JaredBusch said in Got a Pi:

So where does everyone buy their Pi from?

I'm a fan of Adafruit, Element 14, and Jamco Electronics, Mouser, and Digikey myself.

I believe the Pi is sold but adafruit through Amazon. Adafruit is so slow, because they get so many orders, but through amazon they offer prime shipping.

We have this exact setup at my office, works awesome. If the cameras are indoors, remove the plastic domes for best picture.

Aaron just decided to reduce his community profiles and remove his old stuff. He was never an official media rep for them, he just works as one of their sysadmins so I ping him when I see stuff that is relevant. Nothing awry at BackBlaze itself.

Well he's done it several times before so seems like normal for him.

He has? I've never seen him do anything like this ever. Or do you mean when he stopped working at SW? That's different, he changed jobs.

He's went through several different accounts on here as well as spiceworks before.

He did? Are you sure? I'm not aware of that ever happening.

Are you perhaps confusing him with @aaronstuder ?

Oh this isn't Aaron Studer?

No 🙂 This is Aaron that a lot of us know from his time in Spiceworks as a support engineer.

Kali is also designed to run from a USB.

I recommend tails if you actually want to use the OS rather than just hacking things.

LOL, well that does appear to be what it is 🙂

A little monitoring goes a long way 🙂

Cleaning up my old post and marking it solved. After taking options and cost to the business we ended up staying with the bundled music.

Thanks for circling back 🙂

@Dashrender I am still on-prem but plan on moving to O365 at the beginning of next year (If all things line up). I am using Barracuda's cloud layer, which takes the brunt of it and then have a local appliance that filters inbound and outbound.

Don't have a number at hand, but my pfSense is pretty chatty about rules being hit 😉 I'm using Graylog2 too.

Can't help with your spamming XS hosts but can't you reduce the log level or select which events are sent? rsyslog can be configured to just sent specific facilities and/or loglevels.

Sadly XS just does logging a little differently.
