Hi r/sysadmin, appreciate you all.

Anyone happen to know if it's possible to disable billing for unlicensed OneDrive accounts after you enable it? We, of course, have an urgent need to access a single unlicensed OneDrive account but probably won't need to after this instance. We would prefer to enable it, get the data we need, then turn it back off and avoid continued billing. Is that possible? Thank you.

Hi friends! Looking for recommendations on bars and venues doing Star Wars day/May the 4th events. Been working hard on our Mando suits, so we'd love an enthusiastic spot to show them off! Thanks!

If you live here you know how gnarly that hill is. 15% grade. Took it super slow in elevated and it went up like a champ. Didn't even get any pushback. Took about 15% battery and I'm about 230lbs. Love this thing.

We recently stopped using KnowBe4 and upgraded from Barracuda's Cloud email filtering to the Total Email Protection package. Sales swore up and down it worked just like KnowBe4. It does not and the report button thing is very bad. I really hope there's a key piece missing here, please fill in the blanks where my logic and their support department has a gap:

The interactive email security part of TEP is called Forensics & incident response. There is a barracuda essentials button that reports back to the main message log and to Forensics when a user reports a message. The phish testing portion of TEP is Phishline and appears to be a completely separate product that's been bought and re

Majority of my experience is upper tier MSP stuff. Decided to take an internal role for better quality of life. Most of it's been great but the C-Levels expect me to drop what I'm doing and make a house calls. It's definitely out of scope and I clarified as much during the interview process but they really just don't care. Even things like Internet outages, they expect me to go on-site then call the provider on their behalf. They are not willing to work with me remotely, just want me to drive over and it's always immediately. Oh, none of this is COVID related and they still had similar expectations when we were locked down.

1. Do you make house calls for anyone in your organization?
2. If y

Dell sent us a refurbished part as part of a pro support warranty replacement. The part they sent was labeled refurbished and had the same problem. At this point, I think it would be reasonable for Dell to ship a new part instead of a refurbished part. Instead, Dell decided to sit and spin for 3 days and not do a damn thing, then come back and say the best they can do is try again or maybe send a refurbished part today, maybe. WTF Dell? Why in the hell are we paying for a warranty? With all the work involved in swapping this part twice we could have just purchased a new one. I am so sick and tired of under performing vendors. Vendor management makes me want to leave the industry.

EPO support has to be some of the worst technical support I've ever received. First off, grant number is meaningless. Stop asking for the grant number. I log in with my email address so use that instead. Second, don't ask me to log in to the portal on a computer with a security issue. Don't ask me to type any credential information on a computer with a security issue. Third, hire more people. Today it took nearly 3 hours to get a response via a combination of calling constantly, email my rep (shocker, she quit), emailing her boss, calling on my cell phone while waiting on hold on the office phone, getting hung up on at least twice, etc, etc. Every. Single. Time. Even Microsoft is easier to g

Hey, not sure if you remember me but we spoke a year ago (when I first told him I wasn't interested) and we are able to save customers 20-40% on their UPS needs.

I told him he needed to have better awareness and that this isn't an appropriate time to be bothering any IT personal. Sounded like started swearing as I was hanging up. If you're not calling to say you have 20 laptops ready to sell right now, don't bother. We don't need your cold calls when there isn't a crisis, we don't need them now.

Pi3b+ running OctoPi and a maker select v2. Never had issues with long prints until updating Octoprint. Longest print had been 48hrs+ and before the update I would never think twice about long prints. Not sure which version of Octoprint it was running but it was so old I had to run the update commands manually. Also updated all apt packages. After the update 4 long prints have failed right around the same time in the morning but not at the same place in the print (1 was a different model). 3 were the same STL and 1 of those was re-sliced but produced identical gcode. Yesterday I replaced the power supply cable with a brand new 3A one and replaced the USB ca
