If the clients are part of a domain, then all clients can be configured using Group Policy. Add the configurations to the master Windows image deployed to all clients. There are several options for organizations to configure the WMI firewall exception for computers: To discover VAMT-manageable Windows computers in workgroups, you must enable network discovery on each client. Limiting the range of dynamically allocated ports is useful if, for example, the hardware firewall only allows traffic in a certain range of ports.įor more info, see How to configure RPC dynamic port allocation to work with firewalls.Ĭreate a registry value for the VAMT to access workgroup-joined computer The following Microsoft knowledge article discusses how administrators can limit the range of dynamically allocated ports. By default, the WMI port is a dynamically allocated random port above 1024. Administrators must ensure that WMI (which relies on RPC over TCP/IP) is allowed through these types of firewalls. In certain scenarios, only a limited set of TCP/IP ports are allowed through a hardware firewall. On the Advanced tab, verify selection of all profiles that are applicable to the network (Domain or Private/Public).

11/14/2023 0 Comments Dragon eye user access control msi![]() ![]() Who cares about any iGPU when we are building gaming rigs, right? Since the price is much cheaper than the i7-4770, the decision was very easy to make. The Xeon E3 1230V3 is practically an Intel i7-4770 sans the iGPU. In the first place, I don’t overclock and during the time I transitioned from AMD to Intel, I needed a processor with a good price-to-performance ratio. I’m using the Xeon E3 1230V3 for several reasons. But personally I found the default LED lighting to be just nice.įor this review, the rig specifications are listed below. You can personalize the GTX 1080 Gaming X with RGB effects through a software with millions of colors available. The GTX 1080 Gaming X also comes with a memory cooling plate for higher video memory overclocks. The Twin Frozr heatsink is equipped with six 8mm thick copper hear pipes, and I especially like how the heat pipes peek out from under the shroud. This is where the MSI Airflow Control Technology and Twin Frozr VI heatsink work together to dissipate away the heat. More heat is produced when the card is overclocked. Theoretically, this card can consume up to 300 W. With the MSI Military Class 4 certified components, it promises better and more stable overclocking performance. The GTX 1080 Gaming X needs a 8-pin PCIe and an additional 6-pin PCIe for more juice when overclocking. On this side we have the SLI fingers with MSI Dragon logo which can be personalize with RGB LED. Perforations improve the aesthetic value, not to enhance cooling.įor display connectivity, MSI stick to NVIDIA’s reference, with a total of three DisplayPorts, a HDMI port and single active DVI port. In addition the MSI Zero Frozr also eliminates fan noise completely by stopping the fans when running under 60 degrees.Īt the back we have the matte black metal backplate, with the MSI Dragon logo. MSI also packs its new exclusive TORX 2.0 fans, designed to produce 22% more air pressure for lower temperatures without the subsequent higher noise levels. The GTX 1080 Gaming X looks more aggressive with a refreshed Twin Frozr shroud design. In the box we have the GTX 1080 Gaming X itself, driver CD, some stickers to decorate your case and also the usual documentation. For instant overclocking tweaks and LED controls, MSI’s gaming app is supported on both desktop and mobile. MSI’s Twin Frozr VI cooler is used to cool down the card, along with many other MSI’s cooling technologies. The GTX 1080 Gaming X lets you personalize it with RGB LED effects to match your build. ![]() The GTX 1080 Gaming X is a factory overclocked card with MSI’s custom cooling solution, the Twin Frozr VI.Īt the back of the box we have we have more details about the card’s features. On the front, we have a picture of the card itself with a red background. The GTX 1080 Gaming X comes in a pretty compact packaging, instead of the humongous packages its competition come in. ![]() 11/14/2023 0 Comments Linux lite review![]() ![]() With great support and documentation along with all of these other features, Linux Lite is a distro I would recommend for older or low spec hardware. There’s some Lite apps specially designed for this distro which makes customisations, notifications and software management easy for users of all levels. ![]() The XFCE desktop environment is slowly becoming my favorite for low spec hardware and Linux Lite makes use of it well in it’s distro. There’s plenty of software pre installed that should meet most users requirements and being based on Ubuntu LTS this distro is solid and has access to a wealth of software from the Ubuntu repositories. The default install only used about 4GB of disk space and the iso download size it just under 1GB. My Intel NUC with it’s Pentium processor works more like it’s got a i3 or i5 processor! Linux Lite easily fulfils it’s aim of being for the user and being lightweight enough for even older hardware. The developers behind this distro have again maintained their promise of a user centric desktop OS. As I point out in the video above, the list of free software as it corresponds to popular commercial software is a very useful resource for users coming from Windows and Mac OS. The information is categorised well and the information is straight to the point with enough info that newbies will be able to understand the content well. So it’s no surprise that Linux Lite provides great documentation on it’s website that’s a great balance of substance versus information overload. Linux distros have come a long way since the 1990’s and in 2017, easy to follow documentation should be the cornerstone of any self respecting distro. The Lite Software app is one that just wants to make life easy and the simplicity of it is appealing but more experienced users will miss features that apps like Gnome Software have. Their are lots of variations on software management apps out there, with some emulating the Apple store and others being terminal only. Having apps packaged and configured ready to be used without any head scratching and cursing means another thumbs up for this distro’s user friendly credentials. The available software in the Lite Software app is plentiful including non free software like Skype and Dropbox. As mentioned already, boot time was fast and navigating the XFCE 4.12 desktop environment was quick and intuitive.Īll my hardware was recognised and proprietary drivers were also available to use without having to hunt them down elsewhere. Linux Lite focuses on it’s two goals of being fast and working out of the box really well. Helping users out with simple things using UIs means they have more time to just start using their new OS and gives them the level of polish and user experience that we are all used to in commercial products. ![]() Some old school Linux users/developers may hate the idea of wizards and user interfaces for simple tasks but I think all Linux users need to realise that this is a desktop distro not a server distro. The welcome screen is a guide on important post install tasks and links to support and documentation. It’s a small thing but seeing a welcome screen on first boot bodes well because it shows that the developers are putting users first. On a side note I really think the feather logo looks dated and for a distro that started in 2003 a better logo is long overdue. Impressed with it’s speed, my expectations for this distro were starting to grow. Post installĪfter a reboot, I was presented with the log in screen which was very quick to boot (about 10 secs). I installed this installation on my review machine. I found the whole install process simple and straightforward and I could easily imagine a complete beginner being able to follow along and complete a successful installation. You can download the 32bit version or the 64bit version (recommended) and create a live linux USB drive. ![]() This distro is based on Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS which means it’s supported for 5 years and the install process is very similar to Ubuntu. “Linux Lite is fully functional out of the box…we take the hassle out of trying to find the right software from the start”. This distro covers both areas by being very lightweight and as well as being ready to use after install with minimal configuration this is what the developers of LInux Lite have to say: Linux is fast and reliable but can sometimes be hard to get used to, especially for beginners. ![]() 11/14/2023 0 Comments Android sdk manager gui![]() Continue to Step 2.īy default, the "Android Studio IDE" will be installed in " C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio", and the "Android SDK" in " c:\Users\ username\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk".

11/13/2023 0 Comments Customize mozilla firefox![]() ![]() Tab containers are some of the best tools to protect your privacy on the web. Safari users? Firefox has more privacy and security tools, like encrypting your DNS lookups and splitting off websites like Facebook into tab containers. If you’re using Chrome, you should definitely switch, if only for your privacy, but, also, for your RAM usage. In my testing, it was quick and intuitive. This works great for small text and images on pages. ![]() With a double tap of two fingers on the trackpad, Firefox will zoom into the content behind the cursor. This includes the “elastic” scrolling effect, the sort of “bounce” of a page when you’ve scrolled to the top or bottom of it. On a Mac with a trackpad, you’ll find a few more new features. It’s the primary way free websites make money. That’s because trackers are everywhere now. You’ll be surprised to find that it glows on most websites. When Firefox is blocking trackers on a website, it’ll show as a blue and purple color, rather than whatever you have the default set to (mine’s a kind of bright pink or cardinal color). Mozilla also added a new glowing shield icon to the toolbar. They’re now using macOS native menus, which seem to load faster and look more in line with the rest of macOS. Other Notable New Featuresįirefox 89’s main features include the simpler toolbar, floating tabs, tab-friendly full screen, and improved context menus. It’s as powerful and useful as ever, just a bit cleaner. In fact, your browser will still continue to feel like Firefox. ![]() Your old plugins will continue to work as well. Just go back in and tweak the look of Firefox as much as you want. You’ll be happy to know the old add-on still works with the new version of Firefox. I used Firefox Color to create my own menu bars, toolbars, and other accents. However, I still wanted my customizations. When starting, you can select whether or not you always want light mode, always dark mode, to use your system settings, or try out a colorful new design. This seems to only remove some padding around the tabs, but still leaves room for the same amount of text and icons. As for the “Not Supported” warning? That just means if you run into graphical problems with the tab bar, you shouldn’t expect Mozilla to fix them. It would make sense for tabs to be that huge on a touchscreen, or if you have accessibility features turned on, but without them, it’s just a bunch of unnecessary padding. Congrats! All of that padding just went away!.Select that, then select “Compact (Not Supported)”.At the bottom, you’ll see a drop down (drop up?) menu on the lower left side.Right click on the title bar and select “Customize Toolbar.”.Click Accept the Risk and Continue (don’t worry, we won’t be changing anything risky, unless you change the wrong thing…).So, to fix it, you’re going to go into Firefox’s secret settings. But the new floating tabs are g i g a n t i c. That was a creative way to increase the usable space on my display. On one hand, I liked the new option to only show the bookmarks bar when I open a new tab. The first thing I noticed was that the top of my browser was huge. With this latest update, its appearance looks fresh, designed for the future, and it’s as secure, private, and customizable as ever. I’ve used so many browsers, but Firefox has been tried and true over the years. ![]() On iOS, I experimented with the Dolphin browser and iCab Mobile. From Firefox to Safari to Chrome back to Safari, and eventually back to Firefox. I’ll go into details on how to fix that padding below. It’s too large! Fortunately, there’s still a fix in the original customizable browser. I like the sort of button/bubble-like tabs, they look cook and make it clear that it’s easy to reorder and rearrange tabs. Some, including myself, haven’t been happy with all of the new features. The update to Firefox brings a new, cleaner interface, a few privacy features, and system-based context menus, so your right clicks are more responsive and the menus look better on macOS. However, in pre-production, it was referred to as “Proton.” Firefox’s Proton design has finally gone public in the 89.0 version of Firefox. There’s a new Firefox in town and it’s well, it’s just an improvement on the old Firefox design. ![]() ![]() If you’re on a notebook, you’ll definitely want to make sure “Optimal power”, or at least “Adaptive” is selected in the global settings. You can then use “Prefer maximum performance” for only those titles. For demanding games that don’t play well with Optimal Power or Adaptive, find (or create) the required profile in the “Program Settings” tab of the “Manage 3D settings” page. The NVIDIA Control Panel allows you to configure profiles for games on a case-by-case basis. Unfortunately, this will increase the “idle” heat and power draw of your GPU, even when you’re not doing anything. Now, it’s tempting to hit up the driver’s global settings and set the power management mode to the aforementioned value and never think about it again. As the name suggests, this setting will run your card at its maximum clocks all the time. Newer NVIDIA cards feature several more options, such as “NVIDIA driver-controlled” and “Prefer consistent performance”, but the only other choice you need to worry about is “Prefer maximum performance”. However, Optimal Power adds another feature - it’ll stop the GPU rendering a new frame if nothing has changed on screen and instead reuse what’s already in the framebuffer. ![]() Both options will modulate the core and memory clock speeds and voltage of your GPU, increasing them during times of load and decreasing them when demand is low. Optimal power superseded the previous default, called “Adaptive”. ![]() ![]() This setting was introduced into the company’s video drivers with the GTX 1080, specifically version 368.22 release in May 2016. By default, NVIDIA sets the power management mode of your GPU (be it in card or laptop form) to “Optimal power”. ![]() 11/13/2023 0 Comments Firealpaca binary brush![]() See it looks much clearer and looks better. another thing is, notice that fuzz around the icon? it’ll look worse in a thread, so now we gotta go use our handy-dandy binary tool to paint over the fuzzed out part. the black circle will be the outer-most border. We’re going to make the redish circle the place to put the icons. **do whatever you want, i’m going to do something a bit different, but i’ll explain how to do the dashes and stuff with the square icons** ![]() See now it’s nice and centered, and it doesn’t touch the edges of the blank canvas. to be honest, i’m not going to change it that much, but this is what i’ve got: Next, we decide were we want the circle, and how big we want it. ( photoshop file ) so that you can keep all the layers when you want to make more icons**īut now that we’ve started understanding what to do, let’s start with the circular icons, okay?Īlright so it’s really tasking and annoying to actually make a whole circle by yourself, so i find a circle render and paste it onto the 100 x 100 canvas, just make sure to scale it: **a lot of these are cooler with transparencies, so it can show up on your theme, so make sure to save your icons as pngs ( will be further explained below ). please use that tool like your go-to man because there really isn’t going to be a better tool for icons. ( of course your clever mind is going to help you ! ) also, firealpaca has a different setup, however still has the binary tool. These are really all the tools you’ll need when making your fancy schmancy icons. another thing you will need to do is utilize the scale tool: it’s quicker and more efficient to use than the eraser, so don’t use the eraser for erasing things. This erases everything, but also in the brush setting. This tool is going to be your best friend in making formatted/bordered icons.Īnother thing we need to know is how to use the binary eraser, which is really easy, you just need to click this little box: My settings for binary tool are pretty standard but in case you want to know what they are if it’s set differently ( i think it’s the default though ), these are my settings: first, you need to find the binary tool ( firealpaca also has one, it makes everything look like pixels ). Since i use sai, i’ll just give you screencaps of my setup. ( you can also try this on photoshop, but i highly recommend saior firealpaca for the job. from what i understand, firealpaca is free. **but, before we do anything, we have to get the basics down.**įor this to work, you’re going to need either paint tool sai or firealpaca. you can get a 30 day free trial for sai, or pay for it ( it’s a really good art resource which i highly recommend buying and is definitely worth 67 dollars ). we’ll be using icons i already made of them, and putting them into a formatted/bordered icon holder.Īlright now let’s start with the circularicons since they’re harder to do. ![]() ( this tutorial is extremely long, and may bore you, but i’m providing you with as much information as you need, and i promise you it’s really worth the length ! though since this is too long, i will make a different tutorial for standard and square icons ! )Īlright so for this tutorial we’ll be using the fucks known as nagi kengamine and amamiya hibiya.
