    No, its an off brand battery and I think that might be the problem. My OEM battery is dead right now though so I can't check.
    Aaron Parecki
    I was underpowering my GH5S with a USB dummy battery and it would shut off when I hit record. I used a bigger power supply and that fixed it.

    implicit is good to go ..query on password - If password flow is deprecated then how we achieve those use cases which this was addressing..like migration of legacy clients..which flow we can use for those use cases
    Aaron Parecki
    If you're really using the password grant for migration, you can always define your own extension to enable that same migration.

    In our experience, most implementations did not use it for migrations, and instead made new implementations prompting the user for their password.

    I actually labbed this type of environment for release testing at a prior employer. Drove the devs nuts, but reminding them they were building this app for their users in mobile environments was important.

    And this made our clients very very happy. It also became a key talking point for corporate sales of our service.

    That's so cool!

    The agenda for @Identiverse
    2020 is up! I'll have two talks, one panel, and one 2h masterclass this time around. Plus Cards Against Identity will return. It's going to be fun!

    I can't believe I completely forgot to submit anything for this! Somehow I completely missed the CFP. Any idea of they need any last-minute slots filled?

    Here’s my number one tip for anyone that wants to be a Youtuber/Online creator.

    Be nice.

    You never know what bridges you are burning by being a jerk.

    Word of mouth will both get you opportunities and keep them from you at the same time.

    I think this is good tip for just like...being a human

    Oh funny there's no "South America" shipping region like there are for everywhere else, but I just added Brazil manually so try again and it should work!

    Yeah this doesn't make any sense. Even if you want to force login sessions to last 90 days, you should at least not prevent me from editing the files that already exist on my device when this token expires.

    Apparently they use login tokens with 90 day expiration:

    Not sure why, it might be the most frustrating part of the UX.
    Aaron Parecki
    Nice find. That's ridiculous though. There's no reason I should be locked out of editing the files on my own computer. Like sure prevent syncing new content, but don't block me from accessing the existing files!

    @aaronpk Yes.

    I managed some computers remotely on a ship outside Africa once, they paid thousands of dollars equivalent per month for satellite equipment and internet, but only got 768 down and 256 up in kilobits.

    We used to split it up into 512/128 for the servers, and 256/128 for the few clients to browse the internet (5 shared desktop computers), both splits with sad attempts of QoS ontop of them of course.

    But after Windows 10 landed we just had to give up, one or two computers would barely work on 256k, but if we connected up all of them, the 256k of bandwidth didn't work. As long as three or more computers were powered on, even doing nothing, you were lucky to browse anything. With four or five machines powered on, you could just give up, nothing would ever load.

    Eventually we gave up, giving all bandwidth to the more critical servers and said "sorry, no internet". Leaving all outside-world communication to go via the server, in the form of things such as low-bitrate VoIP calls or E-mail.

    It's sad that 15 years ago, we were happy to finally get 768k broadband to replace our broadband, and I even downloaded torrents with that connection.

    Yet now, with only a few Windows 10 computers, that whole broadband line could be almost entirely spent on forced telemetry.

    @aaronpk Did you know that even though Windows 10 still supports dial-up, it doesn't really work.

    The forced basic Telemetry, update checks, internet connectivity pings, etc. alone use up the 56k of bandwidth, so browsing the internet mostly just flat out doesn't work, regardless of patience. If you're lucky, you can get some text content popping up after a minute or two, but even if you wait 15 minutes, most sites are likely to never load a single image unless they're small sub 64x64 pixel icons. 90% of your http requests are simply going to time out or die for other reasons.
    Aaron Parecki
    oh that is terrible! I'm so sad that so much software these days assumes that the user will have a perfectly functioning internet connection 100% of the time.

    In any case, airplanes are like 0.001% of the cases where network connectivity is bad, so websites should really try harder to fail better when network conditions aren't perfect.

    They may be simultaneous connections but you make it sound like a server farm. They are "periodic" demands for upload or download. Maybe 30% of 300 seats are connected, for 90 connections. 10% hit the return key at the same moment, for 9 hits to the uplink at any instance.
    Aaron Parecki
    They allow YouTube now, so that's not necessarily the traffic pattern anymore.

    But my point was that unless you actually have experience running these systems I don't think it's fair to criticize them.

    I hear you, but I wonder if you don't have it backwards. 2020 is the year and airlines WiFi is like 1995 dialup? Something is wrong and I think it may be in the sky.
    Aaron Parecki
    I don't think that's fair to say until you've personally had to maintain a wifi network that supports 300 simultaneous connections where the only uplink is an unstable satellite or cellular connection.
