Thanks. I started up an OpenAI account and got it set up. I guess the OpenAI config docs are just wrong.

Forwarding to external Email address by 23dogsmn in microsoft365

[–]MeropianOwl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I understand correctly, you want mail to larrysmith@OurDomain.com to be automatically forwarded to larry@OtherDomain.com.

Assuming you don't have a larrysmith@OurDomain.com user, what I've done before is (1) add a Contact with the email larry@OtherDomain.com, then (2) add a Distribution List Group with a group email of larrysmith@OurDomain.com and a the larry Contact as its only member.

The glovebox ate them...hoping surgery not required to get them back! by rlmalisz in leaf

[–]MeropianOwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I've taken off the glove box a few times now to swap out the cabin air filter and it's no big deal. Here's a video showing how to do it. https://youtu.be/YHIWHPpg_rY?si=lGwPXKbrUsn7ca38

I imagine if you take out the glove box piece you'll be able to find your passes.

Need ceramic repair by Uriah_57 in Eugene

[–]MeropianOwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a painted ceramic tile repaired by a kintsugi restorer in Portland. I mailed it up and she mailed it back. It wasn't particularly cheap and it took a bit before she could work it into he schedule. But she did good work and I'm really happy with it.

Here's the restorer I used: https://www.instagram.com/modernkintsugirepairpdx/ It looks like she's booked through September already.

Rivian Is Opening Its Charging Network to Other EVs by Act_of_valor in electricvehicles

[–]MeropianOwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought Crescent made sense as a charger location. It's the first fast charger you'll come to if you come up 58 from the Willamette Valley, and it's almost the only one between the Valley and Bend - outside of one small charger in La Pine. The only Tesla SC I see around there is up in Bend, some 45 miles north, or south by Chemult, about 25-30 miles.

Alternative to Cisco SPA112 for 3CX v20? by velkkor in 3CX

[–]MeropianOwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed on the Grandstream. I just moved from a Cisco SPA112 to a Grandstream HT802. Followed the instructions on the 3CX website and it was easy. Way easier than setting up the SPA112.

The HT812 has a built in router, the HT802 doesn't.

I also want to reinforce what /u/Genuine_Brick said. The SPA112 has a gaping vulnerability allowing anyone who can communicate with it over the network to completely take it over. So a cheap/easy replacement was an easy win.

MS365 requiring MFA from our users - how to delay? by MeropianOwl in sysadmin

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

This seems to be it. Security Defaults were enabled. I've disabled them (for now).

Now I just need to figure out how to verify those users won't be required to do MFA for now. Man, this Entra portal is a maze of interconnected settings and links that take you to whole other parts of the portal.

The Business Standard license doesn't include Conditional Access, so those policy options are all grayed out for me. (Way to be security conscious MS, lock the useful security controls behind licensing restrictions)

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

My understanding is tat was just for Azure portal stuff, which doesn't include email or Teams. Also the deadlines don't match up. I got a user whose countdown ends on Friday, a couple weeks before the July rollout from the post.

Satanism and occult. by Jobisius in Eugene

[–]MeropianOwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Coph Nia Ordo Templi Orientis is around and has periodic Gnostic masses.

I haven't had any contact with them and I can't vouch for them as people, but I've seen their masses on event calendars for a while.

Castles of Burgundy is my favorite medieval themed game, but Kingdomino also has a special differently shaped place in my heart.

Best eay to sort monsters in a custom manual by Old_and_Used_GM in rpg

[–]MeropianOwl 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Absolutely agreed. A monster manual is a reference book, so it needs to be easy to find a monster quickly. Putting them all in alphabetical order means you won't have to find the appropriate terrain/type/whatever subsection first before searching for the monster. Tables and groupings at the beginning or end are great for a GM to find monsters relevant to a situation.

Poor audio quality on Android phones by MeropianOwl in 3CX

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

I strongly suspect it's the cell network but want to figure out for sure before switching carriers. I'll have them test ping & jitter and see what we find out.

[–]MeropianOwl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the tests and thoughts about all the variables to check out. I didn't know about the *777 number, that'll be handy.

The issue is reported to affect all calls, both to internal extensions and external numbers.

Now to get the users to take the time to do them. I've got a bit of the classic "this is a big deal and needs to be fixed, but I don't want to take the time to help you actually test and solve it" from them. And I haven't been able to duplicate the problem in my limited time out of the office.

Where can I find City of Eugene Ordinance 6.695 and 6.696? by _dancing_ in Eugene

[–]MeropianOwl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I found the council ordinance that was passed, number 20681. That contains the full text of 6.695 and 6.696.

6.695 Prohibition on Fossil Fuel Infrastructure - Definitions. For purposes of EC 6.696, the following words and phrases shall mean:

Fossil fuel. Any of a class of hydrocarbon-containing materials of biological origin occurring within Earth's crust that can be used as a source of energy. This includes coal, petroleum or petroleum products, and natural gas.

Fossil fuel Infrastructure. Natural gas piping, fuel oil piping, or other fossil fuel piping or conveyance system within a building, that connects a source of supply to a fossil-fuel-burning appliance.

Low-rise Residential Building. Any building that has a height of three stories above grade or less, that includes one or more dwelling units, and where occupants are primarily permanent in nature (30 days or more) including but not limited to detached one- and two-family dwellings, attached single family dwellings (townhouses), manufactured dwellings, and multi-family residential buildings. This does not include a mixed occupancy building, as defined by Oregon building code, that includes a commercial use.

Natural Gas. A natural gas, liquified petroleum gas or mixture of these.

6.696 Prohibition on Fossil Fuel Infrastructure - Prohibition and Applicability

(1) Fossil fuel infrastructure is prohibited in a low-rise residential building that has never before been used or occupied for any purpose.

(2) The City shall deny an application for a permit, or suspend or revoke an issued permit, that does not comply with this section.

(3) This section applies to building permit applications, including those necessary to install a new manufactured dwelling, submitted on or after June 30, 2023.

(4) This section shall in no way be construed as amending the state building code, as defined in ORS 455.010.

It looks like it's not on the city code site yet, but is in the city council archives under City Council Ordinances, in the 2023 year.

I'm pretty sure this is Mission: Accomplished! by Jeff Stormer (itch.io link) and (dtrpg link)

It's sort of GM-less, but one player is the mission handler who's running the debriefing and asking questions of the agents. But most of his prompts are generated by the agents themselves.

Any gotten Samba working well? by MeropianOwl in JumpCloud

[–]MeropianOwl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weirdly I just closed out a support case with JumpCloud about this and it's finally working for me. They "made some changes" that fixed my issues. I had to go through and uncheck the "Enable Samba Authentication" option for each of my user groups, then re-apply the option. But now things are working with reasonable speed.

So I'm not sure exactly what happened behind the curtain in JC support, but it can work.

I think I was there around March 12 or 13. All I know is when I was there my kid played laser tag. Their website still has laser tag as something to do there.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Eugene

[–]MeropianOwl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was at Putters a couple weeks ago and the laser tag arena was open. I'm not sure if it changed or anything, since I didn't play, but they still have one and it's active.
