I no longer belive in those crap articles, its all the same Scandinavian countries.
I read more about it and apparently they have huge dept per person, the amount of productivity is low, and not much sun light, and high rate of women suicide + xenophobia like crazy. I am not saying my country is perfect, but I feel the best countries are the hidden ones, like those Baba new Ganeh (yes that is how it is spelled) or morroco, or maybe even egypt if you can have high income from outside

I've not seen that. Stockholm is actually 2nd to silicon Valley. And for good reasons.

It's been pretty good here so far in most aspects.

Most people live in Southern parts of the Scandinavian countries, like in Canada, which is also in the list.

Okta

Mostly want to make sure upgrading will not affect the sync portion.

AADC you can use if you have AAD. I don't think it depends on any user licenses specifically.

Heh, was talking about calls, on email.

@Scott said in Best way to provide remote access for home office?:

I have a client whose dad helps him with the books in his home office once a week. They would like to set up remote access for the one day a week he does this so dad does not have to drive 2-3 hours.

Log Me In and TeamViewer seem a little pricey to them for something used a few hours once a week.

Are there any recommended similar remote access options that do not require replacing routers, static IPs and the like?

Thanks.

If they are using Windows 10, the built in Quick Assist works awesome. I used it to help my dad across the country a few times, zero issues, full control.

It literally does not get any easier than this.

Anti-vax parents sue to keep unvaccinated kids in school during outbreak

County fiercely defends restrictions amid measles outbreak that has sickened 145.

As New York’s Rockland County grapples with a large and lengthy outbreak of measles, a group of anti-vaccine parents sued officials for temporarily barring their unvaccinated children from school—and the county is not having it.

So... If most of the kids in school are already vaccinated... Why is there public outrcy over unvaxxed kids coming to school? Just curious...

[Full Disclosure: I am not an anti-vaxxer!]

Because the kids should not have to suffer due to parent's stupidity. If there is an outbreak, the unvaxed kids could die. It should be the parents, not the kids. But I'm sure the parents are already vaccinated.

Generally speaking, you should almost never use the console of the VM to gain access. Using RDP is the better option for security and compliance.

What is that based on? I've never heard that before.

The same general security practice that you should never use the local console if you have other, more secure options to login to the machine.

RDP is preferred over the console.

The console should only be used, if the other options are not working.

Enhanced console access in Hyper-V is via RDP.

I was really surprised by the editor change too. Dislike it at first, but it works.

Yes. It happened at the hospital.
