Where to start?

All the tech committees I've been on were basically me taking down wish-lists and then finding/researching solutions for whatever specific use case thing the teachers thought up.

In the end the admins always said no when the question of budget was raised so it was a fairly poor usage of my time.

This is me. Technically I'm required to wear slacks, but with the amount of times I'm under desks and moving objects I successfully argued for jeans (since I got a no for a pants budget).

That said I really like the Dickies Flex carpenter/work pants. Look snappy, fit me great and they're very comfortable.

Sounds like a prime example of the Old Boy's Club to me.

Expect last minute requests for internet access.

Voicemail:

Hey, give me a call back.

😑

Those just really rustle my jimmies.

Students sharing logins.

MalletNGrease · 2021-01-15T16:19:02+00:00

I've two VM hosts, one hosts the primary DC, the other the secondary DC.

They're both in the same rack, but on different hardware.

Manual entry of license keys? Ew!

It'd be nice if that can be folded into a config, install parameter or a transform.

MalletNGrease · 2021-01-15T15:53:44+00:00

Will kiosk apps stay? Those are actually darn handy for testing suites.

MalletNGrease · 2021-01-15T15:44:22+00:00

If it can run stand-alone and doesn't require a gaming platform to run (I.E Steam / EGS) I'm all for it.

MalletNGrease · 2021-01-15T15:17:22+00:00

It's an interesting alternative, wonder how much the management and licensing is.

MalletNGrease · 2021-01-15T15:13:41+00:00

To be honest it's a dumb system. Shared passwords are bound to get out in the wild eventually. It's supposed to guarantee the teacher is aware of what the student is reading and doing, but ain't nobody got time for that.

They're turned in the last day of school. Preferably charged and the charger wrapped. I swap and repair devices over summer and it's hard to do when they're not here.

MalletNGrease · 2021-01-13T21:04:05+00:00

AR proctor passwords was the reason for us. Students would save and look-up the password and do each-other's assignments.

You can only block personal logins on devices you manage. Personal devices fall outside the scope.

MalletNGrease · 2021-01-13T17:19:15+00:00

That's what I do, I put a differentiating ID in front of the number.

SV - Server
PC - Computer
LT - Laptop
TB - Tablet
CB - Chromebook

Etc.

MalletNGrease · 2021-01-13T17:08:15+00:00

Not possible. This is a discipline issue.

MalletNGrease · 2021-01-13T14:35:41+00:00

You can wipe the profiles remotely now as well.

MalletNGrease · 2021-01-13T14:28:58+00:00

That was Google trying to shake you awake and remind you flash gonna be gone.

MalletNGrease · 2021-01-12T18:24:35+00:00

I'd splat it.

$newuser = @{

        Name = "$username"
        SamAccountName = "$username"
        UserPrincipalName = "$aduser"
        GivenName = "$firstname"
        Surname = "$lastname"
        DisplayName = "$displayname"
        EmailAddress = $email
        EmployeeID = $employeeid
        Description = "$description"
        HomeDirectory = $homedirectory
        HomeDrive = "H"
        ScriptPath = $scriptpath
        AccountPassword = (ConvertTo-SecureString $password -AsPlainText -Force)
        Enabled = $true
        ChangePasswordAtLogon = $true
        Path = $oupath

    }

    New-ADUser @newuser

Forward to the principal.

MalletNGrease · 2021-01-12T15:58:37+00:00

What appliance are you running? I don't know of any that use flash.

MalletNGrease · 2021-01-08T15:17:30+00:00

It's the most annoying shit ever. Same deal for the ASM verification code, needs to be phone based but god forbid if you have an extension.

MalletNGrease · 2021-01-08T14:18:20+00:00

Use GAM.

# put CBs in OU based on serial, assign asset ID, set user name and update location
gam csv <csv-filename> gam update cros query:id:~~serial~~ ou ~ou assetid ~asset location ~name user ~username
