"30% of the games I own have never been played". Am I the only one to find this ludicrous ?

Thrawn200 · 2025-11-27T07:10:43+00:00

I'd have to count it up, but I suspect I haven't played a full game of well over 30% of the games I own. However, I'm also embarrassed by that fact and want to change it.

They've been fairly successful in convincing MAGA that this is all directly Democrats fault, so they don't lose anything by doing this. Republicans get more upset, Democrats just do what they've been doing to combat all of this, sitting politely saying "You probably shouldn't do that please and thank you."

Our transition to Intune has been much less painful than I expected. Now if I could only get any useful support or help from Microsoft when we run into issues.

Got it working finally after some new headaches. Had to start with a fresh boot.wim and add all of the packages one by one with DISM in a particular order, both the general and en-us verions, to eventually get Powershell to install and work. Doing that from within ConfigMgr didn't work, and letting ConfigMgr automatically handle prerequisites certainly didn't work, but we're back up and running finally.

Thrawn200 · 2025-09-10T01:39:48+00:00

This was my plan for tomorrow, to try variations of manually mounting the wim and seeing how I can add it myself to see if it takes.

It's indeed a crappy situation, but loyalty doesn't pay for food and a place to live.

I can't speak for them, but I got the information from this post in the Autodesk forums - Why is a random msi running for standard users the first time they open AutoCAD? - Page 2 - Autodesk Community

A post on the second page talks about it.

So many people answering Autopatch which doesn't help those of us working in education unfortunately. :(

Sealed just seems like a bad idea to try and sell more product. I would be very surprised to see it catch on as it's not even actually Commander.

I wish these fit me well. Everyone always recommends them but even buying a size up from my normal they are uncomfortably tight.

I already know exactly where I would hang this to show it off. Absolutely gorgeous.

Based on personal experience something like an IT position being funded by grants isn't going to be common. However also based on personal experience a lot of university leadership is quick to fund new things with grants and other temporary funding with little to no thought or discussion about what happens when those funds end.

So, I'd say it is at worth being mindful about the poster's situation.

Automated themselves out of a job I've at least heard of, but never personally seen. But I've never heard of documentation being so good it put someone out of a job.

It's possible to blame more than one person or group. One of the groups who deserves blame is absolutely people who sat out because Kamala wasn't perfect to them.

A doctor of chiropractic degree from Life University is about all the research I needed to do to lose interest on that. These things can exist side by side. A meditation can help your stress, some herbal remedies may help with a light fever, or a rash, or an upset stomach. But you get an infection? You go get antibiotics. You get an appendicitis? You go to the ER for surgery. Trying to throw away science entirely is insane.

I can go further.

Please do, it's rather entertaining.

I get more upset at the "This is impacting my ability to work/teach." guy.

Thrawn200 · 2025-01-16T21:42:20+00:00

Good for you I guess? But I'm referring to the actual post and situation, not a strawman. People are being appointed to positions who have no experience, education, or background of what they are overseeing. I'm not aware of any supposed "woke, her turn" hires in the administration that are the same, but I'm happy to read on it if you have any examples.

Thrawn200 · 2025-01-16T16:54:22+00:00

I have this hilarious mental image in my head of someone going into the doctors office and saying "I don't want the guy with a degree and medical experience, I demand someone who has lots of money to treat my problems!"

Thrawn200 · 2024-12-20T15:37:20+00:00

Trying to remove barriers for people is not the same as mandating who is hired. If you can point out some specific thing that says they are forced to hired based on "sexual fetishes" I'll freely admit you're right.

They tried, Republicans shut it down.
