Your Own Fault NVidia

You gambled with Crypto and got burned. I have no sympathy for you since it was us gamers that got screwed in all of this.

it is still horrible with false positives. someone decided we need to use the product and I have NO confidence in this product... it fails all my tests and has only picked up false positives for legit products that I have installed.

I know they like having no signatures, but how about cross checking the hash values or something..... all my test files went ignored by Cylance....

It was the movers fault! That's my story and I am sticking to it.

Nope, still not interested

Offer it to me for free, and I will still say no way...... Seagate, a great drive to give to your enemies mwhahahahahaha

On behalf of the rest of Canada, I'm sorry!

Please don't judge us based on Quebec.... *whispers* they're a bit crazy...

Like every other time a large company buys a successful smaller one, HP will hose this product.... We have a small network compared to an enterprise, but Veeam has been a rock solid product since we started using it. I've even had to use their support a couple times and they were amazing. At no point during the support did I feel like they were trying to "rush me through the door" and were genuinely helpful in resolving my issues.

I really hope HP does not try to mess with the software, it's a great product, please don't screw it up. I been so much happier since I left BackupExec in the past :)

Because Licensing EACH CORE is awesome! /s Here's a performance boost, but oh yeah... it will only use a single core unless you pay us.

Feels like what they did with "upgrading" hard drives back in the day.... snip a wire or move a jumper and magically your disk doubled in size...

NOPE!

Nope, i've lost all trust in MS after the windows 10 fiasco. That was just really bad business the way they pushed it out.

Why would I give up a solid hypervisor with excellent management and services for their free and crippled version of a hypervisor.... it's barely a virtual platform with clunky tools... i'll stick with what I have thank you very much!

Happened to me once

I didn't realize it at the time, but I had a job that did this to me. They kept increasing my work load. When I finally broke and said "This is too much" I was told "We'll deal with it and see what can be done"

Things were OK for about 2 weeks, then it started all over again... only now it was "Your the best we have, you HAVE to take this, no one else will take it!".

Anyway, in the end, I broke, I burned out and walked away from the employer mid work day. I walked into my bosses office, said "I'm fucking done with this job, here!" handed in my laptop and phone and walked away, without a single word and went home. I spent the next 3 months healing and trying to cope with what happened. It wasn't until I got a new job that I realized it was the job, not me... with a new employer I fell right back into IT and loved it again!

I was fortunate in the way that I had established a solid reputation as a tech and a few months later a few of my old "Contract" companies called me to offer me a job.

The take away for me, I now know my personal warning signs of burning out, and I am able to better identify bad employers. In the end, we have to stand up for ourselves.

Malvertising

Malvertising is the sole reason I block Ads. After getting hit a couple times from infected Ad Networks I had enough and started blocking them... My Web experience has been better for it and my computer runs better for it.

I recommend everyone try out OpenDNS... you get a free account for home and just block malware and ad networks.. works a treat for home use. Also have a corporate account with work... great service!

BUE is a dying horse

BUE is a nightmare long behind me since our environment went virtual. Sorry Symantec, but BUE just does not cut it anymore.... Veeam is a backup dream come true and I sleep much more easily at night with it taking care of our backups.

Per Socket licensing and a feature rich standard edition, now with encryption, just can't beat that.

OMG, this is such a dark place I am in. I need to stop using this encryption.....

oh wait *click* i just needed to turn the light on!

ROTFL

"Customers and partners are concerned. They are concerned about what the future will be for them – not only in the product but also in support and services," claimed the exec veep and GM of the Enterprise Group.

hahaha, that's rich coming from HP considering their recent changes to support.

Uplink Established

Orbital ION Cannon ready... Please input target location....

Agree with Woz

Gotta agree with Wozzie on this. I own an ipad and was considering upgrading, then i saw the specs and the price for the new devices.

The new devices do not offer the storage i want, nor are they really offering anything new for the price point... sorry Apple, but if you want to keep charging premium prices, you need to give us premium hardware.

If they at least offered a microSD slot i would reconsider, but i just don't see that happening in Apple's world.

Not Funny!

Start Menu!?!?! I have upgraded. what they call a start menu is just a link that takes you to Metro (or whatever they call it)

If this is a joke, I am not laughing.... I use the windows key for that function.

Here's a tip:

On your task bar right click -- Tool bars -- New Tool bar

select the start menu folder located in programdata\windows\start menu

done like dinner and no 3rd party app required.

Half Baked Attempt

Half baked attempt in my opinion. IMHO they should be offering security key tokens (Key FOB?) Even Blizzard offers these. I would pay a decent price for the token... they could even offer an app for mobile phones that accomplishes the same thing... although if all you have is an iphone it gets difficult, but having the physical token option would negate that.....

Come on Apple, try harder
