Setting tiny mailbox sizes and restricting attachment sizes is so last millennium. Outsource your issues until you can get off such a crap platform.

Nice work. People don't consider this as often as they should.

Yup, that is a problem. The last time I was dealing with Exchange I had a mailbox corrupt itself before reaching the official limit, ended up having MS deal with it. They saw the mailbox size (smaller than yours) and admonished me. When I mentioned that I was under the limit they said it was...

Haven't used it. Swype and Swiftkey are the two I use on my things.

Indeed. It seems that Lead-acid or flooded batteries are the better option. And as always, having more capacity is good for a bunch of reasons. 1. Charge/discharge rate per battery is lower for any power level 2. Charge level is easier to maintain away from extremes (batteries don't like being...

I'm sure there are now better ones, but I'm still really happy with my EagleTac Link: http://amzn.com/B00H1IK6JY

What I find interesting about that is whether the codes have always been able to be used repeatedly (never tried), or that they are now handing out special codes that can be used repeatedly. If the latter, that means that they had planned for this since the beginning.

There are better keyboards out there. It also depends on whether the company that makes your product decided to replace the stock keyboard (which normally has an enter key on it) with one of their own.

The only time I've seen something similar was when a previous update failed/crashed/corrupted. The fact that you've already tried a System Restore means that that probably isn't your problem.

Truecrypt does support a mode where you could plausibly deny there was any hidden data at all. I'm grateful I don't need to worry about that one. The main mode is just making a bunch of stuff completely inaccessible to anyone without the password. Of course, with the internet and VPNs being what...

Nope. 7.1a is the same as 7.1a. The assumption was that you didn't have it installed and that is why you were asking. It you already have TC 7.1a, there is no reason to believe that any other product out there is more secure.

We use Google to run our e-mail system, and they have a 20MB limit. We also have DropBox Corporate, and they have a Google plug-in that embeds an interface that supports 10GB attachments though their service.

Indeed. Same with Corsair.

I still trust Truecrypt. Specifically version 7.1a available here.

We use Konica Minolta. And I did end up configuring an FTP server on the Synology box that holds the scans to make that work. No security, not happy. HR has a desktop unit connected via USB for privacy issues.

Haven't used eBay in ages. Every once in a while I'm tempted, then someone posts something like this. Occasionally I'll take my chances with with someone who isn't at least "fulfilled by Amazon" on their platform, but that is as risky as I'll get.

Xerox bad, Konica/Minolta a known evil (their networking is just a bit less reliable than I'd like, what do you mean you can't scan to a windows network share reliably?!) No experience with the others.

I want to replace all but one of the other computers in my house with locally connected virtual machines (as shown in the videos above). Besides by main workstation, there are 6 other computers in the house constantly running. Replacing 5 of those with one (even if it is a dual-Xeon) is going to...

What you really need is for your NAS to support iSCSI and those 10Gb connections we were talking about...:diablo:

Seriously, if this had existed when I owned the LAN center I would have been all over it.

...and it was only for the USB devices. If you didn't see it, here is when he scaled it to 7 gaming machines. https://youtu.be/LXOaCkbt4lI

I believe it is so that you can easily identify the devices by description and sort them out. I'd bet that some trial and error would also suffice.

The build I have in mind is an older dual-Xeon with 128GB, 6x8TB, 4x512GB SSD, Intel 10GbE, some low-end Quadros, and maybe put a Titan on one of them. I'll start a thread on the project this afternoon.

An inch in 30 minutes probably counts as "getting rain". Looks like another inch at least today. The storm was bad enough that it snapped two power poles in half at the country club; one across the parking lot and the other (transformer and all) onto the roof of the cart barn. Had to wire in a...

I'm putting together an UnRAID system to run 3 clients and my NAS at home. Similar to this: https://youtu.be/LuJYMCbIbPk

Interesting weather data from here last night. https://www.wunderground.com/personal-weather-station/dashboard?ID=KCASALIN15#history/s20160228/e20160306/mweek Notice how right at midnight the pressure started to rise, wind basically stopped, then the clouds effectively fell on us, then...

I was just talking with my dad about a similar architecture he's implementing for a machine control system (biotech). Keeping the code as light and as close to the hardware as possible allows them to iterate individual components without having to recertify the whole thing. The recent crazy...

I haven't seen it, but I only have ~40 machines on Win10 so far.

$5k a house would be pretty cheap for that, roads are crazy expensive.

This is why they wanted to break it into two sections, so they can be argued independently in court.

Indeed. I suspect it has to do with the size of the part compared to power consumption and how isolated it is from the rest of the motherboard. When those same chips are mounted to a 2.5" drive it isn't as big a deal.

Yup. I've had exactly one HOA, and they had my car towed from in front of my house twice, cited me for installing a hot tub in my backyard, and prevented me from installing double-pane windows to replace the ancient aluminum ones.

I suspect he is simply omitting a step titled "go to court, win right to modify contract" in between "remove protections" and "further modify contract". I wouldn't be surprised if the whole thing ends up in court several times. Contracts that prevent use of the legal system are very often...

FLIR One, not that expensive. ($250) Easy work justification. AC in server room wasn't keeping up, and the thermostat was giving poor readings. Turned out to be an air circulation issue. Also good for identifying hot spots in computers for instability or failing components. For example, the...

Just a warning for anyone looking to run M.2 SSDs, they get hot and will thermally throttle if you don't cool them. I even went so far as to use thermal epoxy to attach large heatsinks to mine, and the base of the drives is still the second hottest thing in the computer.

Merc nailed it. Also, when you get it running, take another image of your 7 system ;)

I don't know of any way to measure capacity or (by extension) power draw or charge rate. I'm sure there are industrial-level tools for that, but I know of nothing in the consumer space.

SD@8K! Sweet.

Pis and no programming means implementing some of the existing builds. Arcade? Home Automation?

If disk backups are failing, you need to pull them. I might try to pull these, erase them every way you can think of, and then restore back. Or just replace them and hold onto these for a less critical project in the future.

Should be able to. I'll be visiting the fab shop early next week.

RED Scarlett with a walk-around fit and one lens was still ~$2.2k to rent for a week.

RED is too much for me, even just a week rental would be thousands. 5DsR and a 35/1.4II? Not sure the 17-40/4 will be sharp enough, but the 24/1.4 should be, no? And the 100-400II should be fine as well?

...or maybe a RED?

I don't plan on buying anything for a while, but I do have a vacation coming up in a month, and it would be nice to play with some fancier gear to make the vacation more interesting.

Which camera rental places do you guys have good experiences with? I'd love to try out the 1DX II...

Unfortunate. Though I expected anyone actually trying to profit from DRM defeat to go down eventually.

Speed might be ok but the bandwidth would be too expensive for the security camera streams. Razzolink is a local wireless ISP that I have a really good relationship with. They have 500Mbps+ of internet at the top of a local hill and would let me buy some. I've attached images of both runs for...

Yup, using Ubiquiti gear. The relay down into the quarry will be a sector antenna, probably one of these, to feed the different facilities (gatehouse, scales, processing, haul trucks, etc). I'm currently evaluating different options to get data in there. Ideally it would be a direct feed from...

...and 2x 10GbE, and IPMI...too many thoughts...
