I use Amethyst (like xmonad), spaces and set the dock to auto hide. Keyboard shortcuts for switching layouts and moving windows. Three finger swipe to the left or right to switch spaces or ctrl 1-4. I’m pretty happy with this setup. https:

It’s not terminal services. We are using VMware horizon. Printing is fine. USB scanning is a little slow but most people don’t seem to notice.

Been running a setup like that for over 6 years. It’s great. Support is ridiculously easy. Desktop refreshes aren’t bad either and that’s one of the most difficult projects for an IT department to pull off. We’ve done a couple of them now -

Off topic, but that link doesn’t work because it redirects through guce.advertising.com and I use a pi hole. I wonder if it was a deliberate decision to redirect traffic away from the site to an ad server to have it redirect back after trac

Agreed. That's around the time I started using some weird setup where my google searches would go through Tor and I was blocking their cookies. It was overboard, probably unnecessary and probably didn't accomplish much, but it was

And your case would probably be dismissed before it ever gets off the ground. That’s if you can get an attorney to take it in the first place. You could have an ironclad case of whatever and if everyone shows up to court and it’s the first

That's a complaint from someone who doesn't understand the function of HR. HR isn't there to protect the employee. They are there to protect the company while giving the impression they are there for the employees. Sometimes

Read "What to Expect When You're Expecting", looked around at the baby store, maybe did a little research if I saw something interesting, talked to other new parents, talked to the OB, selected a pediatrician prior to the due

Yeah, it wasn't the crazy part that bothered me. It was the dismissive, condescending, passive aggressive tone while acting as if it's purely out of compassion. Plenty of people would choose not to engage this Byrne character base

I think if it was that small, Google wouldn’t take an aggressive stance against ad blocking. They would likely retain more users overall by appealing to that small power user minority that converts others.

If you’re going to call someone crazy then just come out and say it. Don’t quote the guy and then chime in with your fake compassion and hope that he gets the help he needs. That’s saying the guy is batshit crazy while trying to look like a

I don’t imagine it would. It might be there already. The real problem was mentioned above. We risk a situation where each app has its own doh config and not all of them allow you to change it. There’s nothing necessarily wrong with doh. It’

It more comes down to the permanently installed crap software they bundle like it’s a 1998 emachine. And the lame Samsung account requirement. And Bixby. There’s that weird rewards program thing where you earn xp for using different feature

Caldera was the one with the graphical installer where you could play Tetris. I believe Mandrake was the one that was very similar to Red Hat (back around RH 5.2) but I remember it being a little easier to get working. X was difficult. I re

Another crap Forbes contributor article. The fix is to ban these posts. These articles have basically zero credibility because they are written by ordinary dopes who pay to have their blogs published on forbes.com. There is no fact checking

The contracts often say that. In practice, it's never used and vendors generally behave pretty reasonably. I work for a company that has made numerous acquisitions over the past few years. Sometimes it's not an acquisition and the

They will likely come up with more as the investigation progresses. Capital One only contacted the FBI like 10 days ago. This was enough to pick her up on and get things rolling.

How is it that much and where is it that much? I paid a fraction of that.

I paid a few hundred for an outlet in the garage and use the charger that came with the car. Really wasn’t a big deal. It paid for itself within the first 2 months.

The autoplay nonsense doesn't solve the first complaint and it's hostile to what I would guess is a significant segment of viewers which is why you hear the second complaint. The UI has written descriptions of content. I could be

We are on an EA. Annual spend is in the 200-250 range. We have pretty tight asset management so it’s not difficult to get precise numbers. We have grown substantially over the past 7 or 8 years and our license count has gone up accordingly

Mostly crap that was targeted at users via email. Weird droppers, infected documents, PDFs loaded with some exploit. Lots of stuff that doesn't show up on Virus Total. We see a lot of stuff that attacks unpatched software and there&#x2

You're in for a bad time trying to run Cylance or something similar at home. I generally have a positive opinion of Cylance having run it for 3 years. I think where those types of products shine is in larger environments where the end

How does that usually work out? Personally, I would throw out a vendor who asked me to disable my AV. I don't mind whitelisting a directory or making certain adjustments, but it's hard to take them seriously if they can't wor

I don’t know. I don’t think it’s that bad. I don’t put together the spreadsheet from scratch. Been doing it a long time though. We start with what I had last year. I just have to fill in my numbers for each license. Then they come along and

It hasn’t been that bad for me. I give them an updated user count and tell them what else I’m using once per year and they give me a bill. They’ve never pushed back on anything. We start with a conference call, I send over a spreadsheet and

The Prius succeeded in spite of itself. They are ugly as hell, didn't offer plug in capability for years despite customers begging for it, so slow you can barely merge onto the highway and not the most ideal family car. It's the k

I don't think he's a fraudster. I think he's a visionary who sometimes sees things more the way he imagines them than the way they really are. Things aren't as black and white as a bunch of people on here make them out t

Pretty sure you are missing something. We are talking about Costa Rica, not France. There have been protests in Costa Rica about a new tax. Truckers have been clogging up the roads. Costa Rica has high taxes specifically on cars. It’s a car

It's high enough that people are driving dirty old beaters instead of something newer that pollutes less. You could probably make an argument that it does more harm than good. I think they also have VAT or it's coming soon. There
