We contacted Boss IT due to an IT matter that had remained unresolved for months. Jamie attended our site within days, identified the issue and liaised with our external providers to bring the matter to a successful conclusion. I valued Jamie’s quick service and attention, his clear reporting on the issue and the steps he intended to take to fix the issue. I highly recommend his services and will continue to use him in the future.

Picture this: You pull out a USB stick and, with a simple drill, you drill a hole in it, doubling its storage capacity. Well, not quite a USB stick, but back in the early days, we used a hack to do something similar with ordinary floppy disks.
In the late ’80s and early ’90s, floppy disks were the go-to method for storing digital data on personal computers. They came in various shapes and sizes, with the 3.5-inch floppy being the most popular choice, although the larger and thinner 5.25-inch disks were also in use. However, not all floppies were created equal.
-Single Density disks: 360 kilobytes (KB) of data
-Double Density disks : 720KB.
-Single Density disks: 720 kilobytes (KB) of data
-Double Density disks : 1.44 megabytes (MB)
So, what was this ingenious hack? It was as simple as using a drill to create an extra hole in the floppy disk’s casing. One of the most appealing aspects of this hack was the potential for cost savings. Official Double Density disks could be quite expensive, but with the drill hack you could save some cash.
Do you remember doing this?
Got any hacks for us to talk about? 🙂
In the heart of Orange, New South Wales, in Orange City Centre, lies an art display that’s as charming as it is unique. The “Our Orange Our Schools Art Program” is a celebration of youthful creativity, and it has inspired a crucial message.
Four unassuming panels greet you, adorned with black and white pencil drawings on their front. But the real magic happens when you walk behind them. Hidden on the back are vibrant, colourful images that paint a world of imagination. Why they hide the good stuff I don’t know?
In an age where conflicts continue to disrupt the lives of innocent children during the israel-palestine conflict, it’s important to recognize that any one of these drawings could have been drawn by an Israel or Palestinian kid, does their race or religion change the importance of their lives, the beauty of their art and their impression they leave on this world? NO.
Every young artist could be any child caught in the crossfire. As we admire the artistry of the “Our Orange Schools Art Program,” let’s remember the world’s children, acknowledge that every child’s life is precious, regardless of their origin, and renew our commitment to a world where no child, regardless of their background, deserves to live in fear or face the horrors of war.

In recent years, the software industry has undergone a seismic shift, with subscription models becoming the dominant method of software distribution. While proponents argue that these models offer flexibility and convenience, I firmly believe that they are a bane on the IT industry. Subscription models do not save users money in the long run, rely on people’s forgetfulness to extract payment, and are inherently dishonest.
Advocates of subscription-based software often tout the apparent cost savings as a key selling point. They argue that by paying a smaller monthly or annual fee, users can access the latest updates and features without the hefty upfront cost of purchasing software outright. However, this is a deceptive argument. Over time, the cumulative cost of a subscription can far surpass the one-time purchase price of software. It’s a cunning trick, where the software companies ensure a steady stream of income while the customer continually pays, often without realizing the true cost.
Once you subscribe to a service, it’s easy to set up automatic billing and forget about it. This hands-off approach may seem convenient, but it encourages a disconnect between the user and their spending habits. Users might find themselves paying for software they rarely use, or even forgot they had subscribed to in the first place. This convenient forgetfulness becomes a profit centre for software companies, as they continue to collect payments without delivering value.
Moreover, the subscription model fosters a sense of dishonesty in the software industry. Companies often use tactics such as automatic renewals, hidden fees, and complex terms and conditions to trap users into ongoing payments. It’s disheartening to see the industry resort to such tactics to secure profits. Instead of competing on the quality of their software, companies engage in a race to the bottom, prioritizing short-term gains over long-term customer trust.
But it’s not just customers who suffer from subscription models; the IT industry as a whole is adversely affected. Smaller businesses and start-ups, in particular, find themselves struggling to keep up with the ever-increasing software subscription costs. This hampers innovation and economic growth, as valuable resources are redirected towards software expenses rather than investment in new technologies and talent.
Indeed, as a seasoned player in the IT industry, BOSS IT has encountered numerous clients who have fallen victim to the subscription model trap, only realizing the drain on their bank accounts when it’s too late. However, we also acknowledge that subscription models can have their place if managed properly. It’s crucial to strike a balance and recognize that, just like managed services, they can be a way for companies to profit from the forgetfulness or ignorance of their users.
Managed services, when executed transparently and ethically, can be a valuable asset for businesses. They offer proactive maintenance, regular updates, and a support structure that can be a lifesaver for organizations with limited IT resources. However, when mismanaged or used as an excuse for lackluster customer support, managed services can indeed exploit the ignorance of clients, leading to a feeling of dependency that keeps businesses locked into costly agreements.
Similarly, subscription models can be a win-win scenario when software companies genuinely focus on delivering continuous value to their customers. Regular updates, improved features, and reliable customer support can justify the ongoing costs. However, when companies prioritize profit over customer satisfaction, they rely on users’ forgetfulness to keep the revenue stream flowing.
The responsibility falls on both sides of the equation. Users must stay vigilant, regularly reviewing their subscriptions, and taking control of their financial commitments. Companies, on the other hand, should embrace transparency, ethical business practices, and strive to provide tangible value for the fees they charge.
At BOSS IT, we firmly believe in responsible and ethical business practices. We advocate for subscription models and managed services that are clear, beneficial, and flexible to meet the evolving needs of clients. Our goal is to empower users with knowledge and understanding, helping them make informed decisions about their IT investments.
Unity3D, well-regarded for its prowess as a 3D Game Engine, has rolled out a revised pricing model that pertains to software installations. While Unity3D clarified that these charges apply exclusively to the initial installation, concerns have arisen, particularly concerning multi-platform deployments. This shift has ignited discussions within the Developer communities.
The decision to port some programs, from Unity to Unreal Engine 5 is a significant undertaking. Unreal Engine 5’s cutting-edge features, such as Nanite and Lumen, offer a promising environment to elevate the gaming experience, but how does that apply to 2 and 2.5D? This transition requires meticulous planning and resource allocation, thus we have requirement to reduce our Social Media Posts.
While Unity3D is not traditionally known as an AI development or 3D modelling platform, its capabilities in these domains have been continually expanding. Unity3D’s pricing changes introduced uncertainties and increased costs for developers. To ensure we maintain a sustainable approach in development, we have chosen to explore Unreal Engine 5 and Godot Engine for prototyping and smaller projects.

We have developed quite a few projects over the years, and Unity3D’s pricing shift has prompted us to re-evaluate our development strategy. While we transition our AI assistant to alternative platforms, we remain committed to innovation. Have you been betrayed by Unity? Please let us know.
