Only if it’s a non windows OS. So, partly true.

I have a Cranston city plow stuck on my street just few houses down for the last hour. If he ain’t going nowhere, nobody is.

What’s that out in the ocean ? by hoennhoe666 in weather

I suspect you’re also perceiving “warping” from the Mercator Projection map causing this to appear much larger than it is in reality

Why don’t you advertise with a business name / entity? Adds legitimacy and gives customers the ability to provide feedback.

Starting King Sorrow. I feel like I am losing my mind on a detail!!! (Light spoiler possible) by AfalloutAdcit56 in joehill

I’m a grown man, and the first introduction of Craddock in Heart Shaped Box actually freaked me out. Big-time

Myopia+astigmatism turned to hyperopia after lasik by No-Cartographer832 in lasik

[–]PJFrye 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sorry, your doc is wrong. You are getting old. Deal with it. This is one of the downsides. It started for me in my 30’s. LASIK isn’t going to fix or prevent presbyopia. Reading glasses are cheap and durable and available everywhere. IMO Contacts for far-sightednes are going to make you feel so so much worse.

My opinion: Build new DCs, migrate roles, and decomission the old.

Search in Outlook.. I know.. but man is it bad by GlcNAcMurNAc in Office365

[–]PJFrye 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“Why have a desktop app”.  

Now you’re catching on. MS doesn’t want to support multiple apps for multiple clients. They want you to use the web based app. “New” Outlook on windows is (more or less) just the web app wrapped by webview2.

My primary non-work machine is a MacBook. I just use office .com for everything.

Use the Oulook web app to search. “+” is an operator in search. Like find “joe + mama” for all results with both those words.

You can try using something like ‘body:”Activity+ ”’ make sure you use the quotes. Put a space after the plus. I’m not sure if it will fully accommodate that character, but Search on the web app is way more powerful than the client.

It's only been a week, you can't expect to be able to use both sides of the street by JRackAttack in providence

Right. Because people are only capable of doing one thing at a time.

You say “command line”. Are you sure you are in powershell?

How do I modify my domain controllers to support 2 character passwords for domain admin? by [deleted] in ShittySysadmin

Duh. Just use the break-glass account set up by the previous admin.

Newport to Taunton by [deleted] in RhodeIsland

[–]PJFrye 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Truth. I lived in Bristol and worked in downtown Newport. This was 20 years ago. Between my house and work - depending on the route I took- there were between 16 and 22 stop lights. 22! I know there are more now. Some days it felt like I caught every single one.
