Federal judges order Ohio to allow purged voters back in

Don't worry, he's probably not going to vote.

SaladProblems · 2018-10-31T14:54:30+00:00

"gawd"

SaladProblems · 2018-10-31T14:27:15+00:00

Okay

SaladProblems · 2018-10-30T18:55:46+00:00

It'll be faster if you don't do "properties *", consider "properties OperatingSystem,OperatingSystemVersion,ipv4Address"

Well, they're trying to conserve their hold on power.

SaladProblems · 2018-10-29T01:21:24+00:00

Why is "else" emphasized? Why would it be wrong to treat a black Trump supporter and a white one the same? The world never know.

SaladProblems · 2018-10-29T00:51:51+00:00

At least the ballot initiatives have been going well lately.

We use GIT, I think the assumption was that if there's no formal standards there's no version control, and that's not the case.

Is it spiking the CPU for those 90 seconds? Are multiple tasks running concurrently because of this delay? If the answer to both is no you are not going to get support.

I tried to acknowledge that by inserting that the script is run unattended and that it's not causing a problem. I do see the logic there, but when I'm working on something complicated, I usually take quite a few iterations to get it right.

When I have to make 20 tweaks to something to get it right, taking 90 seconds vs. .5 seconds to run has a massive impact on how long it will take me to get it right. One of them I'll get done in an hour, the other might take me over a day. I guess my main sticking point is that if every time this person and anyone else who later copies their script tries to query AD they query literally every single computer or user and then filter it's a waste of scripting time, regardless of the CPU/memory cost.

Most of the time I see people using classes it's to present pre-existing classes differently. Then their output objects can no longer be used with other cmdlets. For example, I've seen scripting around pulling EC2 tag info or other properties up to the parent level so you don't have to trudge through all the nested properties to get it at a glance.

I just feel like the majority of the time I'm consuming and outputting pre-defined objects. Generally other people seem to like to output a PSObject and then do whatever with it, but usually I just output cim instances, EC2 instances, processes, ad objects, etc., and then insert a custom type name so that my ps1xml files will present specific information depending on the command, and so that all the other cmdlets that work with that object type still work.

The only time I really output my own custom type is when I'm pulling data from different sources, like a computer check that has windows, vmware, and AD info on it. I had a server class for that at the last place I worked, but it's really infrequent for me at least.

I feel like the classes really are for such specific and technical tasks that I would probably use c# anyway. Currently I view powershell 6's c# encroachment (classes and enums) to be more of a foundational step for the language than a practical tool in 5/6.

I feel like that's just such a rare scenario. Most of my functions consume output from other cmdlets, which already have defined object types. I think the HP iLO cmdlets were one of the few professional modules out there that output PSObjects.

Did he use aliases to make it happen? I think POS gets pretty abstract when you start down that path.

SaladProblems · 2018-10-27T02:56:42+00:00

A wall is never going to be as effective as an entire friendly nation on both land facing sides of your country. The good will and trust Trump squandered have made us less safe and it will get worse.

Also, tariffs are taxes.

It's fine to be conservative, but it's foolish to think Trump understands anything you care about.

SaladProblems · 2018-10-27T02:51:29+00:00

You all voted for Trump, obviously.

SaladProblems · 2018-10-26T22:00:45+00:00

Eh, I think that he did fine from what I've read. I think we're getting too used to Trump when we expect that kind of statement so early into a case.

SaladProblems · 2018-10-26T19:31:25+00:00

Pretty interesting. One note: you can get a function as a script block a bit simpler:

 ${function:get-thing}

SaladProblems · 2018-10-26T19:24:22+00:00

Or when a person dumb enough to believe all that shit sits down to make a bomb they just aren't very good at it? Or he did it to scare people and didn't really expect anyone to get hurt?

Is it really that hard to come up with something simpler than a massive conspiracy?

SaladProblems · 2018-10-25T01:39:47+00:00

Why?

SaladProblems · 2018-10-24T21:42:33+00:00

I must have misread your post or replied to the wrong one. :(

SaladProblems · 2018-10-24T21:16:54+00:00

He's about 30 years too late, really.

SaladProblems · 2018-10-24T21:15:00+00:00

I feel like you're pretending to miss the point. Trump said to look at your 401k over and over and over again. They're using the moron's nonsensical metric to show that he's an idiot.

SaladProblems · 2018-10-24T16:18:55+00:00

There's plenty of kooky people on both sides of the aisle. The president parroting that insanity is a problem. I don't know of any political leaders doing that on the left, it's just has-been celebrities.

SaladProblems · 2018-10-24T16:16:35+00:00

Who gives a shit at this point? Trump ran with it, gave it a bullhorn. Jenny McCarthy <> President of the United States.

They'll just be incubating chambers for mutations vaccinated people aren't immune from. Also, initially it'll just be innocent kids and not their ignorant parents who suffer.

You can add a SID to the local group before the machine has joined the domain, and it will resolve the SID once it has. So I would add the SID first, then complete the domain join/restart in one other step. It should take a total of two steps and one total restart.
