we have an incredibly mundane, low-stakes Mystery going on in our little apartment tower
Someone keeps breaking in (the lobby door is locked) just to sit in the stairwell, eat fast food and smoke wee...
@nprofile1q... Maybe your theory is right, except that they live in the building. Or are they actually breaking in?
Lots of things are popping up as sovereign alternatives to M365. Very few of them seem to focus on the things that lock corporate users into the M365 ecosystem. For anyone looking at these things, her...
@nprofile1q... I'm with you 100% BUT: In discussion about change, I am constantly met with a specification of the desired system that is effectively just - the current system. No two systems are 100% alike, nor 100% compatible. If you are unprepared to move unless every single feature of the current system is present in the alternative, you will never move.
Related, people will allow an assumed flaw to be treated as an actual flaw. "Sometimes I need to exchange documents with people who can't read an ODF file". Ok - how often? Quantify it. Give it a value. Compare that value to the gains that change would bring (also quantified). And if the former is smaller than the latter - it's not a showstopper.
All too often the debate just stops because a loud voice says "nup" and is not challenged.

@nprofile1q... So you do. I didn't notice. I don't pay attention to tags unless I'm deliberately using them to filter or find, but I suppose I should 🙂

Gonna take the old Linovo in for repairs at a place Linovo sent me to called Micro center but they don’t have homebound options. Where I pay to ship it somewhere for repairs. Linovo won’t do it si...
@nprofile1q... It depends on the repair needed - what's broken? Is it just the keyboard? Literally any computer shop should be able to do that for you.
And any shop should be able to take delivery and post it back - it's even easier if you still have the box it came in :-) I'm surprised Microcenter won't, but maybe where you are works differently to where I am. I just use stupid amounts of bubble wrap and make sure the shop does too when they send it back.

Ugh! So a few days ago my keyboard on my laptop, my trusty Lenovo I had for over 1six years, it’s finally malfunctioning in multiple ways, and I don’t think the hardware is easily replaceable so I...
@nprofile1q... Don't be too sure that it will be too hard to replace the keyboard. I've replaced three Lenovo keyboards on three different models, and you generally just need a small phillips head screwdriver, a plastic lever (or good fingernails) and a little patience. Most (all?) Lenovo models have a hardware manual available online, that takes you through the process step by step. You don't need to be technical. You do need to get exactly the right replacement keyboard though.
Depending on your preference of course, I've also found that an external keyboard is a great stopgap (and in one case a "replacement") for a defective keyboard.

Yuckie ... There's a trans on the bus
Giggles
Hugz & xXx
@nprofile1q... Do the trans on the bus go up and down, up and down up and down? Or do the trans on the bus go round and round, round and round, round and round?

@nprofile1q... it was a private place, but not a cardiologist, not a hospital. They do all sorts of scans, ultrasounds etc. I made an appointment, it was in maybe a week, rocked up, and they did the echo and bulk billed it.
