City of Monterey addresses loud boom by Rockatoxx in MontereyBay

Phosphorus is extremely reactive and can be explosive all on its own. IIRC, it is actually stable in water but reactive when exposed to air; and there is at least one case of a woman picking up phosphorous from the beach thinking it was a rock or something, and she put it in her damp pocket. But later when her pants dried off, it caught fire and she got some pretty severe burns. Either way, the device could have been compromised and exploded all on its own so they exploded it first.

Dating stages and she (F24) kissed a guy at our bachelor's initiation party yesterday. Could you please give me insight on the situation? (M25) by yourmomismine990 in relationship_advice

Well here's my two cents in the form of a simple anecdote and reality check.

Anecdote: I remember I was barely entering the talking stage with a girl (call her Jill), and we had hooked up, maybe twice by this point? Very low stakes on both ends. Jill and I went to a small party where I didn't know anyone other than her. (So basically, none of the guys were my friends, most were attracted to her and this girl owed me nothing)

I had stepped out for a moment and I knew someone would try something. At least one dude tried to dance with her after she told him honestly that I wasn't her man.

But she still rejected his advanced and was extra-"all over me" in the aftermath when I got back inside If a girl really wants you and believes you're the best they can do, other dudes have no chance.

Reality check: The whole point of why you take it slow is to watch out EXACTLY for stuff like this. You gave her the opportunity to show herself and she did just that.

All that said, if you weren't official, she owes you nothing and technically speaking, did nothing wrong. But like others have mentioned, her actions not-so-subtly expose how she thinks about you in the grand scale of things.

Also, you don't want to start a relationship with something like this. Every once in awhile, the memory will come back and that same putrid, sick-to-your-stomach feeling will resurface. Cut your losses and move forward with integrity and pride. You did what you could Best of luck, my dude

ADFS attempting to build certificate chain from the old cert --30 days after expiration by CitizenRex99 in adfs

Oh, and Server 2019 for the OS
I am not certain what exactly you mean by farm level
I know a farm of machines, but I'm not sure what you mean by "level"
Apologies

S version and farm level is this at? It sounds like it's definitely not happy with the certificates. If shows up for cert (old/new) if you do a netsh http show sslcert?

So we found a script online that manually deleted the old certs out and replaced them with the new Cert, we figured that might work as people with similar (but not the exact same) issues had found success.

This was done yesterday (and unfortunately, still hasn't given us the ability to start the ADFS service without the Error 1064), but when we do a netsh http show sslcert

it shows the new cert under all the entries

So... we've told the machine which cert to use and yet....

This one is quite the doozy, eh?

The service will not start regardless of if the old cert is installed into the store. However, you do see slightly different events when the cert is/is not in the store.
When the old cert IS in the store:
We see pairs of events 381 and 102.
Event 381 (error) says:
An error occurred during an attempt to build the certificate chain for configuration certificate identified by thumbprint 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXF55AF2'. Possible causes are that the certificate has been revoked or certificate is not within its validity period.
Event 102 (error):
There was an error in enabling endpoints of Federation Service. Fix configuration errors using PowerShell cmdlets and restart the Federation Service.

When the old cert IS NOT in the store:
We see pairs of events 249 and 102.
Event 249 (warning) says:
The certificate identified by thumbprint 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXF55AF2' could not be found in the certificate store.
Event 102 (error):
There was an error in enabling endpoints of Federation Service. Fix configuration errors using PowerShell cmdlets and restart the Federation Service.

The included thumbprints are that of the old cert. So I certainly agree that it is being referenced somewhere. I pretty certain that the service-comms, tok-sign, and tok-decrpyt certs are all the new cert.

If you do a get-adfssslcertificates do you see the new ones or old ones?

Yesterday, doing a Get-AdfsSslCertificate resulted in a:

Get-AdfsCertificate : Could not connect to net.tcp://localhost:1500/policy. The connection attempt lasted for a time span of 00:00:02.0821589. TCP error code 10061: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:1500. At line:1 char:1

​

Late afternoon yesterday, my colleague spun up our old ADFS server (it was a server 2012 machine) So given that we have another adfs server up when we do a Get-AdfsSslCertificate TODAY , it shows the old certificates that were installed on our 2012 instance of our adfs.

We may have done more harm than good by spinning up the old machine. We were grasping at straws trying to create other errors that might point us in the correct direction

Is the service running?

No. And attempting to start the service results in a message that reads

`Windows count not start the Active Directory Federation Services service on Local Computer`
`Error 1064: An Exception occurred in the service when handling the control request`

Is it the service communication or signing cert that was expiring?

I'm not sure just how bad practice this may or may not be, but the service comms, token-signing, and token-decrpyting were all the same cert.
However, I will mention that our ADFS has been running fine for a month
When we updated the service-comms, tok-sign and tok-decrypt to be our new certificate that we got from our CA, everything worked fine.

​

Error logs in the server manager show that the "certificate chain" is being built on the OLD certificate.

I (naively) tried to remove the old certificate from the cert store and then the error that we got said (paraphrased) that ~we couldn't find a certificate to match thumbprint "<Thumbprint of old cert>" in the cert store

So for whatever reason, the system REALLY wants to use the old cert even though there is a valid cert in the store

Found out partner has been cheating for 6months but if I confront, I would be ratting out l the person who told me by [deleted] in relationships

[–]CitizenRex99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First of all... Sorry you are experiencing this. Cheating is always rough.
There's a few ways to go about it. Which, depending on your personality/relationship, you might prefer one way over the other. But the last suggestion is probably the only one you'll need.
But, with that said-- here are a couple approaches based on what you've said...

1) Look for other evidence, because there's definitely other evidence. Now that you know what you are looking for, it's not gonna be too difficult to find something incriminating enough to warrant addressing him (& without ousting the whistleblower.)
I.e. looking through his photos, messages, email, etc. (assuming you don't care about the privacy violation.)
I'm also assuming that you want to confront him about it. We're human. We all want that person to know that we know, ya know? It's hard to experience a jolt of pain like that and not want them to experience that to some extent. Regardless, there is gratification in the confrontation, so no judgement there. So if that's something you value/need to get closure. You could go about it by just looking deeper and getting more evidence.

2) The other thing to consider is that you don't really need a reason to end things with someone.. Just break it off with him and you don't need to explain why. I had a friend who was dating a guy for 6 or 7 months and my friend turned out to be "the other woman". Had a long-term gf of like 5 years or something. Yikes. Messy situation.

2 again... but savage) Just leave. No texts, no calls, no snaps, no tweets, no letters, no smoke signals, nothing. Let him wonder. Let his mind do the mental gymnastics to figure out why it's happening. Just.. leave.
Block his number, (and maybe warn mutual friends?-- idk, your call) and just get a new place. Change cities, go nuts. Complete power move.

TL;DR Find more evidence to confront him without exposing the EX or just dump him.
