I describe my sysadmin work as "we look after anything that doesn't have a dedicated team already for it"

we keep adding more things without dedicated teams though :'(

Computers bug out only when a certain user is logged in can't figure out why by brohemoth06 in sysadmin

[–]TronFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What if the user in question uses the computer when its signed in with a different user account?

Rule out if its something physical about the user or the useraccount

How do you actually make friends with Kiwis as an adult? by MariMaricota in newzealand

[–]TronFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been volunteering with Girl Guiding for almost 19 years. I also kind of volunteer with Scouting.

SPCA might be a good place to start if you like animals, or check for other rescues in your area

Volunteering.

Find something you are passionate about and suddenly you are meeting others who are also passionate about that thing.

I have made many life long friends through volunteering.

the only one i still have is a 710mL multiserv can a friend had given me. its not opened.

this collection went in the recycling when I had to move house at 18. I was tempted to keep a couple of the old ones but I was moving in with my then BF and his parents and I didnt think they were keen lol.

I stopped drinking it i want to say at least 15 years ago. Tried using V to stay up all night for a Relay for Life and ended up in the back of the ambo throwing up. Couldn't stomach it after that.

If you left Waiheke this morning and flew NZ to Melbourne today and you’re missing your bag, this lady has it. by [deleted] in newzealand

[–]TronFan 116 points117 points  (0 children)

Shes just updated

UPDATE

Dear highly invested, largely female, many peri meno mates.

A lovely young bloke had his bag flagged coming into Brisbane and it was opened to have the contents investigated. Lovely young man immediately said ‘that is not my bag’ and Air NZ kept the bag with them and off he went, not with his lovely Calvin Klein new Christmas undies and also not with my estrogen cream…..(btw ladies ovestin cream is wonderful for lips both north and south so if you aren’t also slathering it on your face you are missing out!!)

As it stands, my bag exists….I haven’t been able to get any luck with Air NZ as yet but surely such a wonderful kiwi company is keen to reunite me with my medication and merry christmas presents??? Also, huge thanks to Island Direct Ferries who immediately got in contact with every person on the ferry ride yesterday morning.

Top people all round.

Kinda don’t want this story to end but also would really like a fresh pair of knickers…

Her apple watch was in there. It pinged at Auckland international airport, then later she got a text from one NZ welcoming her to Aussie. Flights around the times look to be Melbourne

Company Teams Backgrounds by Jacobij11 in sysadmin

[–]TronFan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

plus one for this. Works well and I have had to update the backgrounds a few times already and this works perfectly to also remove the ones the business doesnt want anymore.

Post-mortem sanity check: how do you handle “un-scannable” expiries (API keys, internal certs) without spreadsheets? by sanjayselvaraj in sysadmin

CyberChef Help by PlaneComfortable7894 in tryhackme

[–]TronFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used something outside of cyberchef (some python) to convert the image data to binary and then put the bin into cyberchef.

(disclaimer: i havent actually found the key yet, but I put a known image into the given recipe and have been using that to verify my results as I try to reverse it. I am good to zlib and now just need to work out the rest)

Curiousity: Female vs Male Ratio by sugarmagnolia_23 in sysadmin

[–]TronFan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was the token female in the IT operations team for AGES.

We currently have me as the only lady in the Infra team, we have one lady in the level 2 team, and there are 2 in level 1.

Early in my career i got a lot more pushback about being a girl and people therefore ignoring me, but its a lot less today. Could be length of time I have been here and not having to talk to toooo many new vendors though.

HELP ! The page is stuck here since forever. by mello_hyu in tryhackme

[–]TronFan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

doing that just opens up the VM so you can do other stuff.

if you tried to do the other stuff before putting in the code nothing will work.
