@scottalanmiller said in 3 monitor mount:

My brain saw "3 monitor count" and I couldn't figure out what the heck this thread was going to be about. I need more coffee.

I have only had coffee today. No food. I'm starving but I think I will just leave a little early from work and do early dinner and some beer.

@fuznutz04 said in 3 monitor mount:

Does anyone have a recommendation for a monitor mount that can fit 3 monitors? I built a new desk for myself, and I have 3 monitors. I would like to keep the desk clean by getting a monitor mount. Any recommendations?

What size monitors?

Feren OS: An Almost Flawless Linux Computing Platform

Feren OS might well be the Linux computing game-changer that lures you away from your current operating system.

Feren OS is based on Linux Mint 19 and the Cinnamon desktop environment that Linux Mint devs developed.

Anyone have thoughts on this?

What program is it that only comes in an EXE?

Lots.

I know that. I was wondering which program @scottalanmiller is dealing with in this specific case.

@wrx7m said in Wazuh - Agents.Error. globalAgent is null:

I didn't get the error when looking at the list of agents today. Looks like the update or reboot of the Wazuh server fixed it.

I know this is a necropost, but it's good to mention that mismatched version of manager and agent will almost always cause issues. It is recommended to comment out the repository until you are ready to update agents and manager at the same time.

That is interesting. I have been upgrading some of the agents on Linux systems when they are released, and later, upgrading the server side (I comment out/disable the repos for the server side, per their docs).

@JaredBusch Nice. I may upgrade from an ERX.

Nope. The ER-X 2.0 firmware has been recalled.

I meant upgrade the hardware. But, I didn't realize that it had been recalled.

@JaredBusch Nice. I may upgrade from an ERX.

I had no idea that this shit even existed. People fall for this enough for it to exist? Wow.

USG-XG-8 is the one that is getting it production halted at least from this: https://community.ubnt.com/t5/UniFi-Updates-Blog/USG-XG-8-Product-Status-Update/ba-p/2734268

That is the one I thought.

Amazon plans to make Prime shipping one-day by default

Still building up support for more products, ZIP codes before nationwide rollout.
Amazon's latest earnings conference call included the reveal of a major shift for the paid Amazon Prime subscription service: an "evolution" to one-day shipping as a nationwide default.

Now that they have more DCs than ever and are using their own delivery service, it makes sense. In some areas, does it cost more to store it than deliver it?

With subs, there isn't really any voice matching concerns. You would just make sure that the crossover was enough to compensate for the rest of the speakers' ranges. If they are small and have no mid, you would want to have a sub that can mostly fill in that higher range. Also, line (RCA) vs speaker wire pass-throughs.

SVS and Outlaw and even BIC would be good for budget-minded installs.

Some people, myself included, get nauseous using noise canceling headphones.

What does that have to do with the topic?

Isn't this a topic about headphones? Someone brought up noise canceling. How isn't that relevant?

Your motion sickness caused by noise cancelling headphone use is not related to what the topic is, which is "what should I buy".

LOL - OK, bro.

If he hasn't used them before, it could affect him.

I had a horrible cheapo high back chair at work when I first started here. I started getting numbness in my hands and feet and thought I was getting some neurological disorder. Once I swapped out my chair for a better one, it went away in a few days. I still have other ergo issues, but it is mostly my own fault. Keyboard and monitor placement are also big things.

Just upgraded MDT from 8443 to 8456. Testing it to make sure my older 1709 deployment still works. Then creating an 1809 deployment and testing that. From there, I will test an in-place upgrade from 1709 to 1809 via WDS.

I have it but only really use it to check drive status and for firmware updates. I did used to use the RAPID mode, but it essentially just fills up available RAM with cached files.

My stepfather has 4 that are linked to different machines via software the simulates the mouse movement across screens seamlessly. He likes having Fedora but also has to have windows for some in house applications.

I use 1 at work and two at home.

Syngergy?

Sounds familiar. It could be. I'll ask him.

I use it at home between the two systems.
