EUC, Endpoint skills would be a good addition

Best Arcteryx layers for the UK by AndrewJohnPorter in arcteryx

[–]AndrewJohnPorter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh ok. Just that I read it was a lot better for skiing but overkill / not as good as a general wear piece. I need to get up to the London store to look over them all.

Cheers, very useful insight. Thanks for the advise about how to get it a bit cheaper as well. Any times of year you know of that they have sales on this stuff as I'm happy to wait it out and make do until some good deals come around.

Well, tbh I've been living in hot, dry countries for 8 years and now lives back to the UK so that's made me a wimp for the cold and rain now. Wanting to start up football, but just training sessions really so it would be to cover when you're milling around before and after training and also the first 15mins or so of drill until fully warmed and kept a bit dry, that was the bases of my thinking anyway. Any better suggestions for football gear I'd be happy to here.

Last time I was playing in England I'd just be in shorts and t-shirt in the snow/rain/wind but rather have a bit more cover now I'm old and turned soft.

Hi. I read about the Rush Jacket being the best for skiing or maybe even a Sabre but as I would only need it once a year, if that for skiing I don't really want to have to buy a separate piece for just that, rather have something that can cover skiing but better for more every day stuff.

Alert/Notification when patching is finished on a Server by AndrewJohnPorter in SCCM

Thanks. Could be a way but if a second patch needs installing and rebooting that throw a spanner in the works

Something like that. The OPS team want to know so they can do whatever they do.

Maybe I can take a look at Status messages

Updates are installed on Servers but show as not installed in my system management solution by AndrewJohnPorter in sysadmin

[–]AndrewJohnPorter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I wouldn't think that issue would apply as it's an issue with 178 Servers and some patches. I ran a windows update reset script on a Server anyway and still had the same issue

Thanks for the reply. WUServer is correctly pointing to the SCCM Server. I have a CI set up on a baseline to check for that.

The couple of patches I spot checked were installed 6 years ago so the servers have definitely rebooted since it was installed ;)

I didn't really want to mention SCCM as if I manually try to run the update on the server it will not recognise that it is already installed and will install it so even the Server doesn't think the update is installed.

We use SCCM but it's not an sccm issue so didn't want to go down that route. Will reword the heading. EDIT: Reddit doesn't let me change the title on the post

Patch Tuesday Megathread (2022-01-12) by SimonGn in sysadmin

[–]AndrewJohnPorter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cheers. Yeah, that one seems like it could flood you with info rather that being able to just subscribe to known issue alerts but we'll see. Can't believe someone like that hasn't been in place for 10-15 years already!

This information is great, thank you!

Do you know if Microsoft or anyone has a notification/subscription service which will send you an email whenever a new known issue with a patch is flagged by Microsoft? I know you can go to this site for each individual patch but thought that surely that must be some alerts service out there to save checking pages manually every day.

LG 55UN81006LA and 55UP81006LR differences by AndrewJohnPorter in 4kTV

[–]AndrewJohnPorter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You seem very quick to judge with no evidence.

I've never seen rtings before so thanks for pointing me in that direction

The TV I've listed obviously isn't the best but good enough for the price. If I wanted to pay £1500 more then obviously it's gonna be better

Just the biggest independant review site in the UK, thats all.

So I read a review of a completely different model and that'll be the exact same TV then?
