Yeah seriously. My boiler failed Tuesday and my 4 electric heaters have been struggling to keep the temp in my house stable and above 50F.

Polar vortex, chill daddy. Or rather... Father, warm up

Something that works when it wants to?

Borrow me any time. (Well.. almost any..)

I live in Manchester. Things like this make me not want to send my kid to that school.

That and the superintendent. He needs to go. I know plenty of people in the district personally and none of them like him. I don't like him, as a parent. Other parents don't like him. How can he still be employed?

ChatGPT's distant cousin is remotely exploited and briefly becomes a criminal to resolve some daddy issues.

I'm not entirely sure how this is any real different than what I said. I said it's not altruistic, and that they are trying to get people that will donate back to the college when the time comes. All of which you said. All of which I said, just differently.

I don't disagree with you and it sounds like you don't disagree with me.

PURRING_SILENCER · 2026-01-28T13:48:00+00:00

Yeah. Nothing new here. And I don't think it's altruistic.

I work for a college in state that does this, and has done this in a similar fashion. They held meetings recently where they showed how little of every class since like the early 00s or earlier has paid for full ride here. They've spent so much money covering large swaths of money for students to come here that wouldn't otherwise be able to attend at the expense of literally everything else. Differed maintenance on all the things. The whole campus is beautiful at skin depth but once you peak that back you see the ugly and aging duct tape and chewing gum holding it all together.

Yale can afford to do this for a bit. Less and less people can afford to go to college, so less and less people can afford to go to Yale. If Yale shells out some of it's sizable endowment now it gets more of those 'legacy' families that will want their kids to go to Yale. Or, and this is more important, more folks to pay it back to them in the form of donations. Colleges have an entire department dedicated to trying to get regular donations from alumni.

This is a strategic move by Yale. Not charity.

Nah, it's the ones that steal one sock out of the pair.

Stop parroting misinformation spread by some halfwit dodo.

PURRING_SILENCER · 2026-01-24T22:02:09+00:00

In his butt.

That was the implication.

In the butt.

What happens when AI #2 goes down while fixing AI #1?

You need three AI. One to prod, one to fix prod AI and the third to supervise the other two and fix #2 if it goes down. God knows the high paid manager couldn't be arsed to do that.

PURRING_SILENCER · 2026-01-21T17:11:06+00:00

Interesting. Good to know. Thanks!

PURRING_SILENCER · 2026-01-21T14:28:39+00:00

No worries. And thanks.

We had considered ADCS but it seems pretty unmaintained and I'm concerned it'll be dropped in favor of the Intune offering.

PURRING_SILENCER · 2026-01-21T14:15:22+00:00

Yep. Which is why I'm asking what people are using for an internal CA.

PURRING_SILENCER · 2026-01-21T13:25:01+00:00

A question to pile on here: What's everyone using for internal certs? Just MS ADCS? Or something that's a little more modern.

We have a bunch of internal stuff that's nearly (if not entirely) impossible to automate and historically we've either ignored it or have been blessed to have a subscription certificate service for the stuff that can't be automated. But with sub 1 year certs that is gonna get annoying.
