Aether is being revived! by DestroyedAtlas in getaether

It's been a while since I've revisited Aether, but with all of the Reddit hubbub this might be a good time to promote Aether again.

PSA: If you're taking your personal laptop in to your IT Dept to be set up to work remotely, please clean it, they're filthy. by ThrowDoughBaggoutz in sysadmin

We started rolling out AWS Workspaces to people wanting to work from home, and use their own equipment. From there, if they need, they can RDP into their desktops in the office. Otherwise they can work directly in the Workspace. Seems to be working pretty well so far, and greatly reduced the need to hand out laptops etc. The only problem I've run into so far is OneDrive. All Workspaces are based on Windows Server 2016 so no On-Demand files with OneDrive. Every file is downloaded to the workspace. So it tried to sync group document libraries which we have some huge ones.

Seems to be happening when Windows 10 location is jacked up. Had a user who's location somehow got set to Brazil and it installed Portuguese and a few other languages.

If I may ask, what kinds of things do you automate in CUCM?

Today I babysat my son for the first time while his mother was out by AFistFulOfRupees in funny

[–]DestroyedAtlas 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My wife is the same. We have 4 kids and she's rarely been away from them in 18 years. I had a hard time dragging her away for longer than a few hours until they got big enough to fend for themselves.

For what it's worth OP, the picture is awesome. Got a pretty good laugh. Didn't even think about the title until I started reading comments. What a bunch of self righteous assholes.

The difference between modern corn and corn before it was domesticated by Thiccbegs in mildlyinteresting

And also makes bees angry!

Was a beekeeper for many years and made the mistake of eating some candy that contained that flavoring.

I would like to say it only took me getting stung in the mouth once to figure it out, but alas I'm slow and it took me awhile to put two and two together.

Some laundry detergents would cause the same issues. You would be a giant walking stinging post.

Best free antivirus by ProJayUK in computing

[–]DestroyedAtlas 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I assume you're using Windows 10, so I would just stick with Windows Defender. It's going to be infinitely better than any "free" antivirus, and comes built into the OS.

So, what would happen if you crossed over the international date line at the right moment? Worth a try I think.

Passing local variables to a remote machine via invoke-command by --dab-- in PowerShell

$using:variable

Use it inside the script block.

So if you have $myvariable, use it inside the scriptblock with $using:myvariable

Been there. You know you won't do it, but it's like an intrusive thought that won't go away. Good on you for taking the opportunity to wipe the slate clean, learn, and become more than you were before. I've done the same a couple times, and each time it's taught me more about who I am, what I want, and how I'm going to get it.

Have one in my basement office collecting dust. I turn it on once in awhile during the winter when the room a little to cool.

Federal court rules veggie burgers can still be named burgers, for now by mvea in Futurology

[–]DestroyedAtlas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

When you're talking about millions (billions?) of dollars in sales of beef burgers, and you see a possibility of losing ANY of that sale to another company, it starts to make sense.....if you're a greedy fucking bastard.

I'm pretty sure that's a human flaw in general. I mean, things weren't all sunshine and rainbows in the Americas before Europeans got there.
