But will it actually be available…

Supply has been so bad, I’ve moved things away from using one.

Preparing to drive and visit family in Virginia.

Now- every time I see or use “Prepare to,…” I think of two different movies:

“Down Periscope”
“Spaceballs”

Have yet more network drops put in,.. adding printers and troubleshooting scanners

It's Month end,.. It's Quarter end,.. and It's migration weekend from SL (Microsoft Dynamics) to SAP. .. so a number of things to be worked out between now and Tuesday...

I have to re-enroll all of our Zebra Scanners - not difficult... just a process..

I tell you, it took a while to get here,.. but I am glad I found it. I've enjoyed my job.. and it's crazy what I get to do and work with. It's a lot, but I'll take it.

Time to go play some Ghost Recon..

I just realized Proxmox supports Solaris VMs, so I'm doing this today. Talk about nostalgia!

I’ve been wondering what else I could move to Proxmox as well. Realize that I could also move my ReadyNAS to a Nextcloud install if I get a better machine, cpu and drives..

Been home just twelve hours now,.. unloaded and few hours of sleep finally - jeez it feels nice to sleep after the last week.

Now - Into pickup back up the Proxmox install I started.. Time to load an ISO and start migrating to it. While some of that runs - back into work with all the notes and follow ups. Whee...

Gonna need more memory - but I already knew this:

@gjacobse Yes, White Bear Lake. You coming for work, or vacation?

Work,… transition of the space from 3M,.. who apparently just pulled their gear when they left…

Traveled light- figures it would rain.

Packing for a trip… anyone in the St Paul, MN area?

Putting off the work I need to do for work I sorta want to do but really shouldn't be doing when all the other work needs to be done.

Dug up a desktop for testing - rather have something newer with a little more memory and CPU,.. but ProxMox is installed and waiting for me to work on it. SSH works,.. not done anything else. In theory, this will free up / allow for retirement of the current UI controller, rPi 3dprinter and allow me to add a SDR receiver / recorder...

Not looked at ProxMox enough to remember or know this answer. And before I dive to deep into this personal project.

Can each VM attach to a specific USB device for use?

Specifics, a raspberry 3D printer replacement

@nadnerB

MEMES!

I spent the last week cutting down/apart a tree that broke in half due to wind last week.

Hope it didn’t hit anything or anything important if it did. We’ve had quite a bit of systems come through here also..

Storm came through about 2:30-3:00am and was very active in lightning…

@jt1001001

Yes, ran 5A this year,.. and man I am struggling today.

Ran solar/battery/ QRP Digital and then moved over to the regular Digital station.

Not bad considering it’s an iPhone.

coffee number 2 on a reasonably sunny sunday morning.

went down the beach yesterday, lovely. still water, large waves for this beach gently rolling in evenly, very few folks around.

I know it may not be often but that is how I like going to the beach. Peaceful setting so you can enjoy the scene… not noisy crowd with people.

@JaredBusch said in Yealink T46U external ringer:

You could probably do something with the external busy light that Yealink sells, but no direct external ringer. It flashes when ringing and solid lit when on a call. So may not help.

No matter what you are going to have to buy something to make noise, so why hack something together instead of simply purchasing a device designed for it?

Oh - Not trying to "hack" anything together. The phone has TWO USB ports and was curious if they could be used for this,.. other than the USB headset, USB Wireless, or USB Phone charger. Yes, there are VoIP ringers,.. and YES I have looked at them. And NO I'm not terribly concerned over a budget issues. Simply curious if there are other ways to accomplish the task.

I mean - I "HACKED" together a solution to play music over the PA system,.. iHeartRadio from a laptop streaming the local stations. But I had heavy concerns over License issues,.. So we now subscribe to Pandora Business and I schedule genre changes during the day. We PAID for it over risky "hack jobs"..

In a warehouse setting, these phones just don’t seem to have enough ringer to be heard.

Without having to add IP device, could you add an external ringer via the USB port?

Been a trip since getting into this renovated building. Different challenges and new setups. Working on making adjustments to the new door access systems. Learning a decent bit on these new systems and been fun.

@WrCombs said in Reboot resets Desktop Win 10 -:

So found out the user is actually corrupt, this is the 4th time this has happened according to the internal IT team, and they're looking to get the PC replaced

It’s always best to replace a corrupt user. The can leave so much of a mess.

Is something like DeepFreeze in use? That could explain part of it at least.
