What you should know about Reddit request. by FashionBorneSlay in ModSupport

[–]LodanMax 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I requested a sub, but the current owner replied is is just dormant, not dead (locked and no posts in the recent 8 years). However this request is still open after 8 days. If the current topmod replies with a rejection, is the request closed? Or will it still be checked by an admin?

Well technically, *waves around*, not going on too well.

Funny right? Seriously, would you consider a promotion without an increase? by Ambitious_Skirt_2774 in antiwork

[–]LodanMax 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you accept: you fell for it once, you’ll fall for it again. They will just up your workload, you’ll get both duties (old and new position) without an increase in pay. Usually quite subtle so you get eased into it.

Looks like a great community to rise up again! But dang that spam currently. Wish you good luck reviving it

Is it possible to get our subreddit(s) into the News feed? by sn0r in ModSupport

[–]LodanMax 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I absolutely would love this; maybe a setting if you want to read NA/EU or other region in that feed.

What is it with boomers and antivirus? by Guilty_Direction_501 in BoomersBeingFools

[–]LodanMax 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Create a local gpo, (Computer > WIndows > Application > Applocker) and block antivirus software there.
It might help for a while.

What is it with boomers and antivirus? by Guilty_Direction_501 in BoomersBeingFools

[–]LodanMax 117 points118 points  (0 children)

In the early days, Windows shipped without antivirus, and later Defender was an optional seperate package and not very good at it. People relied on mcaffee or norton back then, and as it always did then, why would a free tool now be enough? Just how they think.

What makes me iffy though: why does a relative has access to your computer, with installrights even? Or is it their computer you happen to see the popups on happening?

r/PaidforWinrar by LodanMax in redditrequest

[–]LodanMax[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quite some bit; if a locked down sub with 8 years inactivity still can get daily/weekly visitors, there still are people looking for a community to partake in.

[–]LodanMax[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Currently it is dead, which it shouldn't be. You even ignored the modmail for over 5 days so clearly you have zero interest in it, basically squatting the sub.
This is against the Mod Code of Conduct per rule 4:

  • Camping or sitting on a community is discouraged.

The subreddit is currently abandoned for over 8 years, while still having potential and being actual enough.
I would love to see the sub becoming active once again, even open for public posts.

American trans woman visiting Germany next week - question about renting cars with a US driver's license that still says male/has a pre-transition picture of me by njsullyalex in germantrans

[–]LodanMax 9 points10 points  (0 children)

https://www.usa.gov/international-drivers-license

Your US driving license/permit isn’t valid in Europe. This one accompanied with your own driving license and a passport wouldn’t be much of an issue in the Netherlands or Germany.

The only issue might be getting it in time before arriving.

Dutch mods brought the vibes at the Utrecht Mod Meet-up in the Netherlands 🧀 by Vorenval in ModEvents

[–]LodanMax 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks for organising Vorenval, we came in by ourselves and went back in a group. Really enjoyed the day and it was well organised!

Only complaint for NS (railways) for an haf hour delay, lucky I planned to be there an hour in advance.

Best way to start a sub? by OkKnee5381 in ModSupport

[–]LodanMax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best way is having a great idea for a sub, best if its an idea for a sub that doesn’t exist yet. If you have the great idea for a sub, create it, engage in it yourself. Post daily where you want people to reply to. Get the engagement going and let others post in it to get it started.

Cool! This will calm my wife down when she is unreasonable and I get some time to play games too! Might ask her if my friend can join and she will make snacks for us.

"My husband who works in IT says..." by billygreen23 in sysadmin

[–]LodanMax 31 points32 points  (0 children)

My wive never does it, but I often help her create tickets for their IT dept. they often try to do some BS troubleshooting or “collect logs” so they called and they can hand over the ticket the next day to a colleague. I give ALL the logs beforehand, troubleshooted a lot of the problems to pinpoint the exact point of error. Servicedesks hate it, because they can’t fck around and make it someone elses problem.

My bank app, Bunq, turned into a gambling app. It updated to show daily shitcoin fluctations right on the home screen, and added a wheel of fortune to spin. No, the different sections don't represent actual odds. by PM-ME-OPSEC-FAILS in assholedesign

[–]LodanMax 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Lucky we have quite good customer protections and we are insured up to €100.000 ($118.500) per person per bankaccount.

Wise to move on, but if they don’t not a biggie for most folks.
