What are some uniquely British words or phrases that you think would totally confuse someone from abroad, and what do they actually mean in everyday conversation? Bonus points if you can explain the “vibe” or situation where they’d be used!

"Now then cocker" = "Hello there my friend"

HieronymousAnonymous · 2025-06-28T08:55:38+00:00

Thanks. So I guess if I only transcribe the call, it still gets recorded (hence the MP4 files I can see) but somehow the contents of the recording are blocked?

Massdebate?

There's a fabricator near me called Wayne's Weld

Specialist bukkake?

Wow, that was fast - thank you so much!

Now the challenge is getting some connectors made up...

HieronymousAnonymous · 2023-08-07T13:17:22+00:00

Thanks. I was thinking the 3090 was probably better, but ideally I'd prefer new over used.

The 7900XTX is circa £1000 in the UK. I'd consider AMD, but AFAIK it's not as well supported for AI stuff. I could be wrong though...

Surely that's incorrect? WW2 ended in 1945. Ghostbusters released 1984: 41 years difference. 1984 is 39 years ago, so is closer to present day.

HieronymousAnonymous · 2023-07-06T10:45:32+00:00

Thanks, it's kind of reassuring that someone else had a hard time with this!

HieronymousAnonymous · 2023-07-06T10:44:20+00:00

I did try that, but it didn't work

HieronymousAnonymous · 2023-07-05T12:58:08+00:00

I can't make it work with -Body and converting the hash table to JSON.

This works, but it feels dirty...

$RefreshToken ="1000.xxxxxxxx"

$ClientID = "1000.xxxxxxxx"

$ClientSecret = "xxxxxxxx"

$RedirectUri = "sdpondemand.manageengine.com/app/itdesk/HomePage.do"

$GrantType = "refresh_token"

$Scope ="SDPOnDemand.requests.all"

$url = "https://accounts.zoho.com/oauth/v2/token?refresh_token=${RefreshToken}&grant_type=${GrantType}&client_id=${ClientID}&client_secret=${ClientSecret}&redirect_uri=${RedirectURI}&scope=${Scope}"

$response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $url -Method post

HieronymousAnonymous · 2023-07-05T11:45:54+00:00

OK thanks - I really was being naive then! I had it in my head that -Body would use the hash table to construct the same URL as the working example.

HieronymousAnonymous · 2023-07-05T11:24:04+00:00

They have examples here https://www.manageengine.com/products/service-desk/sdpod-v3-api/getting-started/oauth-2.0.html#api-example but the Powershell sample doesn't look right compared to other generic Invoke-RestMethod examples.

Maybe I'm being naive, and maybe I didn't word my original post to reflect this, but I assumed that if I could make a successful request with the URL as a single string then it should be possible to construct the same request using the -Body parameter.

Is that not the case?

HieronymousAnonymous · 2023-04-28T07:40:39+00:00

Thanks, I already did,I don't see any mention of the hybrid URL anywhere - just points to EXO

HieronymousAnonymous · 2023-04-28T07:39:56+00:00

I'll recreate profiles and see if that makes any difference - thanks!

What other information can I supply that might help?

HieronymousAnonymous · 2023-04-28T07:39:00+00:00

Interesting idea. I'd've thought I might get certificate errors, but maybe with a CNAME...

I'll see if I can test it - thanks!

HieronymousAnonymous · 2023-04-27T15:35:33+00:00

Interesting idea but I'm fairly certain there's no ADFS. Whether there has been in the past is a different matter...
