Reciever

There all bottom tier systems, none are worth producing in the first place let alone expect it to replace a traditional education system. Even when I went to vocational school I used my own system as theirs was garbage. I learned later I could've had the same education for 1/10th the price. But yes, Dell has some huge contracts with schools now. Medical, defense, government and now education.

If I remove details that skirt the rules to keep your post intact and find the redacted bits returned I will default to the efficient solution.

@ryan Post it again without the expletives. There is a reason why I edited the post.

I think it will remain higher, a lot of schools started adopting chrome books for class work and many of those contracts are still being filled.

I am aware, all I will say is that I have tested our functions and automated processes, all perform as expected. Outside of that we do not perform manual resets.

It's good to stay active :)

@ryan Its best not to rip off scabs if there is no reason to.

If you lean all the way to the left and touch your back with the top of your wrists you get pretty close though :D All that's left is to mimic your favorite dinosaur

If it helps we could have a banner made to shame you upon purchase, I wouldnt mind even getting commentary from @Clamibot articulating just how much money was wasted like those one liner quotes that OEM's like to use from Product reviewers. Here to help, after all

Jaybee keeping me busy I see lol I'll add it to the list this weekend :)

Not that I am currently aware of, but its worth digging into. I'll spend some time this weekend looking into this and some other things that have been eluding me.

Just gotta wait for some unfortunate fork-lift driver to hit one and you may see it in the for parts or not working part of ebay :D

Setting the typical deflections aside for those that like to defend it to the death (lol), the choices they decide to commit to in the second reminds me (not 1:1 mind you) of TellTales The Walking Dead, where they spend a great deal of time and energy getting you to care about Clementine only to go out of their way to 180 on persuade you to betray her at any given chance. John Wick except instead of a puppy and cool suits its the main characters daughter and the basic idea of zombie ants making its way into humans.

Dont remind me lol There are some things I wanted to have done before the 1 year mark and that is looking to be increasingly more difficult. Just mostly recovered from a cold, hopefully this weekend I can get some stuff done.

I have that same chair I think, gets the job done lol The monitor is still pretty cheap @ 160

Thats where a lot of my systems come from right now, out of warranty decom. I am currently sitting on: 5820 Precision w/ i7 9800x 4x 7810 with 2x 2650v3 (20c/40t) (some of which have 128GB RAM) 3x optiplex 7060 i7's optiplex 7070 w/ i5 6x HP t630's Probably over a TB of ram One of the other reasons I was a bit disillusioned was due to super low bids I kept getting. I used to sell Optiplex 7040 micros for 100 and people would still shoot me offers of 40 lol. I was thinking of building my own SCCM/MDT server to make the process of clean slating PC's more automated.

I have been debating it to some degree but of my experience of late is around sccm/mdt deployments and such. I think I have hit the ceiling at my current employment but I do have too much hardware at home for my own uses its really a waste to let it be. Me and Hiew debated it several times since we essentially do it already for all our friends and family and do have a genuine interest in the space. Then we needed a forum lol, so that took front seat and then work ramped up for both of us pretty significantly.

That is an automated process, which is not what is originally described. What you describe is for me to personally reset a password based on request. I have no way to guarantee you are who you say you are, which presents other repercussions if we were to engage in that scenario. I have tested the automated reset system and it's email functions, everything appears to function as desired. Perhaps your email service may need to be re-evaluated?

Would be nice in the laptop space though.

buyers remorse is why I never attempted to start up a business in that arena. I dont have the heart to turn away a sob story and would likely just implode as a result. Much easier for me to curse Dell and HP to the high heavens for their inept and lately lower product standards. Though now I just have stressors in other aspects of my work.

Welcome back! We do not do password resets under any circumstance, for any member. 2FA like Authy and Google Authenticator can export 2FA credentials to a new device.

After using an LG v30 I had gotten from @Mr. Fox I have stepped into the Pixel 7 Pro. Its a nice phone, a bit discouraging that it doesnt formally support USB C to HDMI/DP via Alt mode. Going to see if I have any luck on that front this week with some Dell Docks at work.

Welcome to the Forums!

Since this is speculative, I have moved it out of the WLSIB sub-forum. In any case welcome to the forums! I find it odd that now that DTR's, MXM and SLI have been methodically killed off that we start seeing announcements of 18" chassis again.

Is it me or is forcing no support on sli/xfire part of the reason why the gpu market kind of sucks right now? What ever criticisms justified or otherwise of the methodology it did create a means for people clear out old stock and also for those that sold their gpu's second hand to help justify the cost of the latest and greatest. Wasn't as much of an issue before because we had crypto and pandemic to backfill and escalate the demand threshold. Neither of which is present any longer. Now we just have an inflexible product stack.
