They really need to change the name the name to SHELL or do like InDesign and change it to PARENT.WELCOME to my hell!!!
Trying to explain big data concepts to people is killing me ... I do NOT know them but have seen so much this year, I pretty much have the Parent/Child/Master thing for printing sorted out, to where it hasn't failed after multiple challenges.
I may be wrong, but until someone can show me that ...
I hate people this week ... maybe next week I'll hate them more/less.

Last post by Joe - May 07, 2024, 04:58:48 PMQuote from: DigiCorn on May 07, 2024, 04:30:56 PMIf you're that stupid to fall for, "buying gift cards," then you deserve to get swindled. Let's think about this logically... you know you didn't do anything wrong, and let's say someone did remote into your iPad... what site were you on that allowed the attacker to gain access? Maybe you're NOT so innocent after all...I wouldn't say they are that stupid but they just don't understand how things work. They got the guy by claiming:
$15,000? Hell no. I'd take my iPad to ewaste for shredding, and for $600 I'd buy a new one.
If I were really paranoid I'd go buy a new router with a VPN and configure my devices to connect through the VPN. I do that anyways so I can get out of market sports, or watch local teams that got blacked out.
"They have downloaded a $15,000 charge for a child porn site out of China. That immediately got my attention," said Mandle.
Mandle has no criminal record and says he didn't have any pictures or videos like that on his iPad. Mandle did not want that on his computer or record.
"I could get in a lot of trouble. That's what still sucked me in," he said.
Just gullible.

they changed our titles to Supervisor because of the word "Man" was derogatory to women.
this was back when sexual harrasment was all the rage (it was the anti programs we all had to go through for our Management Training).
Very similar to what you are having to sit through Digi.

Last post by Possum - May 07, 2024, 10:36:31 AMUsually if you stick to well-known vendors, they don't play dirty with their customers' info, including e-mail, although customer lists are a legit way for them to make more moolah. I very rarely deal with a new company I've never heard of for that reason. Sometimes, though, you just can't stop the crap. Spam is the least of the damage they can do, so it's just having common-sense vigilance.
I once had some company charging me around $7 a month for some subscription to some diet program of theirs I never heard of. It was obviously crooked, as each month the charge was listed under a different category, such as florist, books, etc. I guess they depended on getting a lot of card numbers and charging a small amount they hoped nobody would notice. I got the charge removed each month until they gave up.
