If anyone deals with Citgo, the credit/debit cards probably won't work. I'm heading to our sites and am opening a ticket with the payment processor (ControlScan -- fna EchoSat).
Windshield time and it's 9 degrees. Sheeez

And it looks like it just came back up.

Anyone have screen shots on how to make a local account during log in with Windows 10? Got a user trying to set it up and all it will do is offer them online accounts.

Choose to setup on domain. At least that's what I've done.

So you choose the opposite and it gives you local?

Choose domain account and you get the 'older' style of account setup. After you get a local account, you'll be joined to workgroup in workgroup mode and then you could join a domain if desired.

Go figger

To clarify, this is during setup, not login after you've created the online account

Yeah, I'm in setup stages over chat.

Dunno if this helps but, once you get a desktop, open file explorer and you can right click on this pc and get manage, properties, ... It's my 1st goto if I need to setup old school

On the way to the store to get gas. We're due to get a foot of snow by tonight. Gotta fire up the snowblower

It's supposed to hit us tomorrow and Monday. At one point the warning was 20 to 60 cm (8 to 24 inches if my mental arithmetic isn't too far off)

It doesn't look like it's going to lose strength as it moves east. Good luck.

The wintry mix that was supposed to stay south -- didn't. I ran the snowblower this afternoon when we had 4 inches of snow. I went outside around 7:30 tonight and there was another 4 inches of snow turned to slush. It's still drizzling cold freezing stuff. Fun times tomorrow.

I just setup MeshCentral2 on Ubuntu. It's amazing. Blazing fast on a LAN. Gonna test over VPN tomorrow.

@nadnerB Photocopy machine, really?

You've never setup your copy machine as a DC? Well, you sir are an amateur! Amateur I say!

Yeh but, Deadpool

I mean... yeah but he's basically just playing Ryan Reynolds dressed up as a super hero. I really enjoy the Deadpool movies don't get me wrong... and frankly I enjoy Ryan Reynolds as an actor... just as long as you understand he doesn't have the range that some of his contemporaries have.

Oh, I'm not suggesting that he has range. It's a signature role for him. If he wan't<<wants to drop the stereotype, he'll have to show his chops or make Deadpool 3

@scottalanmiller said in pfSense vs OPNSense - Fanboy fued or real differences?:

pfSense's maturity and market presence definitely make a big difference. And they have that add-on UTM deal.

I have both running in VMs and am exploring.

Sorry. Was at a site meeting a vendor for an installation. I'm catching up.
