I'm flooded with help desk call because of this. As others have mentioned, most organizations disable location services on desktops and laptops. What is ESRI's specific reasoning for not allowing users to surpress this warning in settings?

Ultimately, XEON's can run at wide open throttle for longer and not overheat. So if you're processing 20 TB of Lidar data over a weekend, the I9 might throttle itself, and the XEON will be done by the time you get to work monday.

The latest Chrome update breaks Ad Blocker, which blocks AGOL and Portal. Whitelisting both fixes it:

Good idea, but don't hold your breath on Apple letting developers have access to the sensor API. Reading a few reviews and that's the top negative point: only Apple can access the sensors.

When I find time! Rona shutdown really threw my projects into a time crunch. Logging into Dell and specing a new system does take some time!

As far as we can tell, no you can't. Same issue. Map tab and window blacks out, regardless if just Pro or entire desktop shared. Makes help desk operations, especially during these times, impossible and we have to go visit the user in person. Worked with Google Hangouts.

In the interest of trying to not open up any TS cases unless related to critical ops, as I'm sure ESRI employees would prefer to stay at home, I offer this possible very minor bug? Pro 2.5, when attempting to "Upgrade" a SQL 2014 Annotation Feature Class, where the schema is DBO and the authentication is Windows Only, AND the feature class is registered as versioned, and it's in a feature dataset, get the following error. The error is expected behavior, but, the "%" symbol is not. What I expect in the error message is the name of the dataset. Minor issue.

I see that there is a lot of EDU resources top-posted for educators dealing with e-learning and the current crisis, is there a list of resources for parents with kids at home where their school district is not participating in any ESRI program? Thinking something simple and easy that a parent can understand to get their kid learning about GIS for a few hours.

I know there's some sort of AGOL EDU program, but with millions of kids suddenly at home now, potentially for a very long time, thinking ESRI can step in and FAST TRACK some some sort of program where kids can get an AGOL account and access to some age-appropriate online training thingy. Was thinking of doing an online GIS thingy for my community, but ran out of steam when I realized kids at home will have no access to online GIS resources unless...... (Edit I know there are free AGOL accounts, I'm referring to something where they can do some spatial analysis, create some content, etc..something where they can roll up their sleeves and do more than "free" stuff).

I get the same error you do, and cannot get the original data. Suggest tech support on this one.
