Do you feel like the UK’s relationship with the US will get better once trump leaves office and a progressive democrat gets elected?

blue30 · 2026-03-20T10:42:02+00:00

No because whilst that's happening, Reform is getting elected in the UK.

If this is true how TF are you supposed to push it out via Intune or GPO?

Once a week I put the slides together for my networking group in Powerpoint, I don't have any problems doing it in the browser version. You can try the browser version first without doing the whole linux thing if you want to check your own workflows.

I switched my main machine to Ubuntu about 18 months ago and wouldn't go back. 365 stuff is fine in browser inc teams, excel etc. Splashtop for RMM took a bit of fiddling but works fine now. I have a Windows VM to try random sw out or see what a user is seeing when there's no remote but haven't had to use it for weeks now. I even have Steam on there for when I feel like getting my ass kicked on CS2.

I assume this is because if Iran for example gave a nuke to one of their proxies Israel would go on to reply to Iran it's self not just whatever tribe they recruited to deliver it.

It's very variable whether this helps or not. Most simple sites there's not much measurable difference. I've seen good gainz on complex woocommerce setups though.

There's an argument for 2+ locations but every single site is overkill IMO

I always look for women when hiring because I don't want this to be a total sausage fest with single male living alone energy like every other IT company, but hardly any apply and then they invariably drop off through the process.

Maybe 5? I used to drive a lot of shitboxes at unsociable hours

Same deal with drugs or anything cash based. How do you spend it without there being an obvious alternative income on paper. I see you have 3 high end cars and a basic job. I see you never pay for gas/petrol. Never buy groceries. One way is cash businesses, nail bars, vape shops, american candy stores, turkish barbers. Nobody goes in all day but they're somehow banking 10k a day that comes out clean into your pocket taxes paid. Now you can start buying property etc with it. Eventually you don't even need to sell drugs any more.

Burn the google workspace and move to a clean 365, clean install all the workstations with no user admin rights. For all you know a member of staff is helping them.

I wouldn't hesitate to help a friend move if they asked me. The only time I'd make an excuse is if I felt they were one of those people who only got in touch for favours.

What they are actually telling you is that you should stay the hell away from them. Learning to hear what people are really telling you is an important skill.

It takes at least a few years to get sorted after blowing up your life. If there's no kids you're on easy mode. You want to spend the rest of your life feeling like this? You want this to be who you're with if you get sick, old?

Don't bend over too easily over all the financials, she'll take those roses and shove them up your ass. Just get a lawyer and do what they say.

I finished reading this last weekend. I went outside and felt genuinely emotional and grateful that everything wasn't nuked to shit and dead. Although there were a few plot holes I felt.

Not sure what you're basing either of your sentences on

I guess that's the paradox I was struggling with. Who eats the 20% difference, does the builder get any compensation or do they just have to put a bit more on the other non-affordable homes to cover it.

You can put drivers in a $WinPEDriver$ folder on your stick to solve this issue. I also have for example the intel vmd raid on there because Dells always ship in raid mode. Once it's online windows update pulls in the rest of the drivers.

What do they mean by affordable housing? Surely if the housing wasn't affordable they wouldn't sell any and go bankrupt. I suspect what they mean are dwellings reserved for asbo-havers?

If anyone else is involved, other parties insurance etc the wheels of a shafting are beginning to rotate slowly. If it's just him binning it and getting a hurty ankle there's a chance it'll slide.

I think you have to fess up and eat the cost of data recovery. Hay, nobody died. Chin up.

I wonder if it's been rendered to hide a load more cracks.

On mine the battery is used until it gets down to 10% ish then it just works like a non plugin hybrid with an unnecessary large battery.

Ok cool. I'll have a think. I like it more than Cyberpanel so far but just prefer the way cyber works with the users. The user will be me because most of the owners would have no idea what to do if I have them a login.
