AN APP? Yes

A USEFUL app? Well...

Hmmmmm, getting into console repair, was thinking creating an app or Web app thingy I can host somewhere to track jobs inventory costs etc etc
As this is just a "hobby job" don't want to pay for a solution. Thought make one that I can make it work how I want

None of the free ones seemed usable to me or to limited

Create an app/Web app/Web site with zero technical programming skills.... Doable???

Question/recommendations
Looking for some games (xbox one) that are just open world driving games, like GTA but without the violence

Don't mind them being mission based as long as the kids can just drive around. Guess something like MS flight sim but with Cars

What hardware we talking about? Manufacturers models etc

You mean the one that always seems to get longer?

Well mine was getting shorter but now growing again lol

@dafyre said in What Are You Doing Right Now:

You should!

You can monitor network switches and link usage (great for monitoring uplink ports)... which then leads you being able to build and see a live map of your network at a high level.

You can also monitor CPU Usage and Network Usage on Windows, Linux, and Mac systems. It really is quite powerful. I haven't done anything with it in a while though. I need to set mine back up again, lol.

Yeah really need to look deeper and read up on it more, another thing on the todo list

Requirements and how to deploy it. That’s the next thing I want to stand up in my little lab.

I've got it "Deployed" with a few agents on VM's for disk space usage, and then just pinging and checking response times for our connection.
But feel we should be using it for more stuff

@eddiejennings said in What Are You Doing Right Now:

Reading about Zabbix

What you reading about it?
I always think it's a bigger product than what I'm using it for but never not around to checking

I know you "Anti" Windows people won't care about this
But something new about the Windows 11 OOBE
Based on your feedback, we have added the ability to name your PC during the setup experience too

Getting ready for holiday

Think some people need a time out, and go in the corner to think about what they say

Maybe have a look at the Decrap script
https://community.spiceworks.com/scripts/show/4378-windows-10-decrapifier-18xx-19xx-2xxx

Been a while since i've used it

More of a Rant.
Just watching the news about puppy smuggling.

But also about the increase in demand for dogs/puppy's with cropped ears as celebs and "influencer" have them.
Like WTF!!!!! Why would you want a dog that someone has simply mutilated the poor thing.

The world is so messed up!!

I use MSPaint if I screenshot something and just want to circle something in big red pen/brush

Greenshot, and now even snip & sketch or whatever the new built in thing is called.
