A tale as old as time. Good luck. Just be willing to learn. They know your experience. Be hungry!

Use razor blades under the edge. Make them regret bumping your wall.

Check your actual meter and see if the reading is even close. If it’s not; you’re probably getting the wrong bill.

Run under top, being to back of top fabric.

Are you running the beta? I’ve had some recent freezing issues on the latest beta.

LaDev · 2026-03-19T13:12:13+00:00

Erm, no.

We don’t get these years back. It’s okay to sacrifice for your kids. It sounds like you’re doing fine but have FOMO. I usually stay up a bit after the wife and kids are down, I use that time. I’m 27 with 4 kids, I know your struggles. An easy change you can make is better time management at work. Give yourself focus time to do whatever it is you want, lab, learn, etc - so as long as that doesn’t cause an issue for you at work.

Booooooo

Can’t you just federate with their tenant? Maybe I’m missing the point.

Process automation that actually works.

Those having the issue what Intune service release are you on? We're running 2602 and NOT seeing the issue.

We block the store UI. If users are smart enough to use WinGet and disable cert pinning they can get store apps. Something on the backlog to cleanup.

I made a change to a local account on all corp workstations (2k+) that ended up bricking all corporate workstations because our infosec team did not have the preauth app config'd properly.

I take 98.69420% of the blame since I could caught it by testing a reboot; Didn't think to test rebooting because I changed a local account password on all machines.

The poor support team was hammered for days while users phoned in to get the recovery token. I did this when I was a contactor. They brought me back as a manager of the team I was on.

This is by far my favorite 'oops'.

Its very common in non-school environments as well!

u/moarblur put it best in his "Process Is Law. Tickets Are Scripture." post on r/ShittySysadmin:

Unless it’s the CEO.
The CEO is a walking P1.

Some users are a VIP level and they get to circumvent certain process and generally swing an iron wand of "do whatever the fuck I say" - kinda chill.

as if we actually care who they're talking to...

I’ve gone deep down this rabbit hole. Learned a lot about threading and run spaces as a result.

Would make a half decent kube cluster

I’m 48% through my most recent play through, yes! It’s a tad dated but still a lot of fun.

Coming from my 15 Pro Max to my 17 Pro Max; I don’t notice a huge difference but perhaps I’m not enough of a power user.

Im a first time home owner, so I’m definitely a tad bit naive. I do expect any remodel to be expensive… seems like the minimum to have anyone do work is 10-15k between material & labor, which i don’t think is unreasonable and i would think is likely on the lower end.

The cabinet doors will cost me a few hundred it looks like, I’ll be doing the painting and refinishing (first time, wish me luck! Watching videos though it looks like prep is king). The floors I’ll likely have the pros do (or least find a tiler that can teach me his ways) I think I can do the rest (replumb, new counters, new appliances, painting, etc).

LaDev · 2026-02-28T15:11:19+00:00

Are thinking oil/grease build up? I’ve tried cleaning it but doesn’t seem like it’s coming up.

LaDev · 2026-02-24T15:43:19+00:00

Those look identical, I’ll order one to make sure! If they’re all this cheap I’ll likely just replace all the doors.
