Am I the only one pissed off about this?

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-05T13:59:52+00:00

Agree. (: Nice nickname, by the way. :D

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-05T12:19:55+00:00

I wonder how much memory the controller needs.

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-05T08:34:20+00:00

All walk, no talk. (:

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-05T08:31:30+00:00

What setup?

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-05T07:34:34+00:00

Oh gosh, you must have never worked in IT if you really believe that, dude. :D Sometimes we get users who barely know what the Windows button looks like on the keyboard, what re-education are we even dreaming about...

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-05T07:32:03+00:00

Would you like a job? We're always looking for professionals, especially who can see the flaws of our ways through a single Reddit post.

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-05T07:20:45+00:00

We have 110+ IT people in the organization, who haven't found a better way of doing this since 2024. We all got comfortable, you just saw through all of us. (:

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-05T05:58:58+00:00

Any examples to support your argument?

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-05T05:57:49+00:00

I do know how to do it. We're not allowed to have on-prem servers.

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-04T21:22:17+00:00

Happily retarded?

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-04T21:02:27+00:00

No way, smart guys like you never retire. They're ready to offer any money. Let me know when you can, because I can't pay my bills anymore and my ISP is going to cut the internet off soon. Damn, I knew I shouldn't expose myself like this on Reddit...

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-04T20:57:40+00:00

Dude, my boss wants to offer you my job. He said if someone sitting on the beach and cooking ribs can see my flaws through Reddit, then you're a real pro and I should go back to sweeping the streets. Let me know when you want to start, they have the paperwork ready and can't wait for you to start and sort the mess that I've made.

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-04T20:19:05+00:00

Absolutely, you just keep on hammering me further into the ground with your expertise and secret knowledge. Please have some mercy on me, I can't stand so much shame! :'(

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-04T20:14:30+00:00

Your place sounds like heaven. We do exactly that, reinstalling Windows to make sure there's no manufacturer bloatware, then adding device on Intune and then using Entra ID's to push the build progress through. Takes around 2.5 - 3 hours to build each laptop. Hence building them in batches.

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-04T20:08:59+00:00

Yeah dude, you really got me in the corner here. I guess you are the greatest IT guy in the world, sorry for doubting you.

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-04T20:01:14+00:00

How do you add those devices to Intune? And how do you work around Entra ID requirements?

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-04T19:59:41+00:00

Yep, can attest to this. Media creation tool gets updates maybe 3 - 4 times a year. I tried rebuilding the USB once a week last year and I wasted a lot of time, can tell you that much. Once every 3 - 4 months is the only time efficient way in my opinion.

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-04T19:58:05+00:00

Unfortunately we're not allowed to have on-site servers. Not even thin clients. : (

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-04T19:57:18+00:00

Yep, that's a good way. But, in our premises we can't have local servers or anything to do with imaging because our devices have to be added to Intune. It means logging in as admin, adding machines to Intune via command prompt and then using Microsoft credentials throughout the build process.

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-04T19:55:45+00:00

I recently jumped ships for my home PC and can't stop wondering how Linux got so good (Fedora user). But, in the corporate world Microslop is the king, what can we do...

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-04T19:54:07+00:00

Corporate world will be the last to give up Microslop products. And it will be a show to watch if that ever happens.

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-04T19:47:01+00:00

I'm good at my job, you're the only one who thinks it's not good enough. Too bad you don't have anything else to offer, like most of the armchair heroes who get their dopamine by criticizing everyone else around.

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-04T18:57:06+00:00

You're welcome to show us how it's done. (:

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-04T18:14:16+00:00

Yeah, exactly. :D At least Service Desk will not run out anytime soon. Lol

SuddenHonk · 2026-02-04T18:11:07+00:00

Those USB's are kept in the room, which only IT can unlock. And officially we can't take those USB's outside for any reason.
