What I found and read -though short- implied the person is making things up out of total misunderstanding.

I’d have them provide examples

@strongbad said in Windows 10 Odd Desktop Behavior - No Links Working, No Settings:

User confirmed, it appears to be working. Edge isn't working, but it's not needed. Just made Chrome the default and everything that was remaining was fixed. Thanks everyone, looks like it is good now.

Awesome!

@StrongBad said in Azure AD Open Source Alternative:

Samba 4 does what AD does, for free. But I'm not aware of anything that does what Azure AD does using open source software that you can host yourself. Does anyone know if something exists?

I guess what are you looking for? Azure AD is basically hosted AD with some limitations as to client management.

It's a totally different technology. Azure AD is a competitor with hosted AD. It's not AD in any way. Very different technologies. One is a LAN design and one is LANless as well.

My guess is that this won't stand up. Implied contracts and all of that.

@aaronstuder said in Vultr Adds a Free Firewall Service:

Is it just me, or is Vultr killing it recently?

Are they? With Linode's improved pricing, Vultr still is trailing for us in most use cases. It's a bit too costly and a bit too slow. We just get way more bang for the buck with Linode and Linode has load balancers which I think are a bit more important than firewalls. Vultr is doing well, but killing it seems a bit far as we are migrating off in several cases because it just isn't the best value compared to it's more mature competitor any longer. It's definitely doing better than Digital Ocean these days, though.

I use Hubspot and like the interface. It's a great source for sales, but more for marketing. If you work in one of these spheres I also recommend you to try these apps in addition to Hubspot => http://bit.ly/m1mapps

That would be good on a case by case basis, but I assume he wants this for all services. If he had like fifty pay walled sites that he never wanted coming up in searches, it would be cumbersome to have to add that in for any given search. You could store that on a notepad somewhere to copypasta but would still be a big pain.

We only started using Yoast SEO recently.

Thanks for the link.

Thank you, just bought it. Will give feedback once I get into it.

@bigbear said in Anyone Looked at HubSpot CRM:

@rojoloco Yeah I mean the fact that it had MangoLassi in the bit.ly link, which was picked by the creator. But the Ghetty Images use for profile pic probably did it in.

Can't blame anyone for hussling. Just make a post "Please try my product" and maybe pay for an add on the ML sidebar rotation.

I will always publicly call out these secret vendors/marketers/sales d***. Every time I see them. F*** that noise. They can peddle their bullshit elsewhere.

I'm ok with peddling, just be up front about it. Doesn't serve them when they get called out. Everyone has to make a living just hate when someone tries to deceive me.

@StrongBad said in Query OneDrive:

Awesome, thank you very much. That's what I was looking for.

We're griping about $600-800 for this form factor, but people are paying $700+ for iPhone? huh.

I need a good phone, I don't need a little gaming rig.

You would be the #1 customer I thought of for this. Business traveller.

Oh I like the idea 🙂 If I didn't already have the laptop, I might bite.

Wheren't you looking for this type of solution last year? I understand that you've solved it with a laptop now, but you were looking I thought.

Yup, but moved on.

@JaredBusch We keep the lids down.

As a single guy with no kids, I literally can't even.

I have a 65 Pound Pitbill and she would drink the toilet water if I didn't.. I don't care to get any licks after that so it stays down.

@scottalanmiller Something tells me that it isn't a lack of funding that is causing their issues.

All of my Commodore gear still works. Those things are tanks.

Except for the power supplies. Those things were almost literally bricks and died often.

External at least, easy to replace.

@Jason said in Blackberry is Done, No More BlackBerry Phones:

Say what you want about their outdated OS And methodology. But their BES was one of the best MDM solutions, iOS and Android MDMs aren't near as powerful, and they are much easier to bypass.

I was really rooting for the z10 when it was announced. The hub was really cool. Sadly, it didn't take off.
