  • Sounds like you have difficulties of your own that you may want work on before concerning yourself with others.

    You can’t help another sailboat if your own boat isn’t stable.

    I highly recommend some Cognitive Behavioural Therapy - recognizing your own anxiety shows you at least have that awareness. Learning to reframe it will go a long way.

    Going through life “as an anxious person” as if that’s unchangeable, is no way to live.







  • To add - by doing pulls the backup server uses different credentials to run than the credentials used to perform pulls.

    Backup server has it’s own credentials database, machines being backed up have their own database. Backup service in backup server uses appropriate credentials from machine being backed up to access the data there (shares, etc). So credentials from compromised machine are unrelated to credentials for backup server.

    And if backups are done properly (full on a schedule, daily incrementals, or something similar) you should be able to revert to a known-good state with minimal data loss.


  • I have a 10+ year old 10" photoframe with wifi and Bluetooth - I’m surprised how much I like it.

    It rotates through hundreds of photos - each photo has a name with a date, so they serve as reminders of places we’ve been, things we’ve done.

    On a good day it simply shows what’s in a network share it has access to. Sometimes it pukes and I have to reset the wifi on it.








  • We often are.

    I’ve had great leaders, and they really can be a force multiplier, by allowing experts to focus on their area of expertise.

    Good leaders promote cohesiveness and keep a team pointed in the right direction - much like a team coach. They focus on strategy and smoothing the rough edges between players.

    Until you’ve experienced this it’s hard to see - and I say this as a rough-edged expert who’s experienced both excellent and mediocre leaders.
