DJAdapt writes: Kronos Private Cloud (KPC) customers discovered that their Time & Labor Management and Payroll solutions were completely down on Monday, 12/13/21. According to a post on the Kronos Community Page, a cyber security incident due to a ransomware attack is affecting UKG Workforce Central, UKGTeleStaff, Healthcare Extensions, and Banking Scheduling. Although they are currently working with cyber security experts on the issue, they say that it may take several weeks to restore full system availability. This will cause many folks using their TLM and payroll services to seek manual alternatives in the meantime.

Who will be jumping on the new Pebble Time or will you be holding out for the upcoming release of the Apple Watch?

DJAdapt writes: "In a departure from Dell's approach of selling machines only directly to customers, a Dell spokesman said Thursday that the computer maker will begin selling two of its Dimension desktop computers in about 3,000 Wal-Marts beginning June 10. Dell spokesman Dwayne Cox said the Wal-Mart deal "represents our first step" into global retail. "Customers want more and new ways to buy our products, and we plan on meeting their needs on a global level," Cox said. "Offering Dell Dimensions in Wal-Mart is a great example of this approach.""

Bestbuy hires like any hack off the street for geeksquad. I've asked them questions in the past about mundane PC stuff and they'd blurt off random incorrect stuff. What gives?
