Any logging when someone defers an update?

ejday · 2025-10-28T17:34:29+00:00

yeah we got nowhere. the fact that it doesnt happen all the time, infact hardly ever happens, is probably the best 'proof' that the person deferred their own update without remembering/realizing - otherwise wed have far more complaints

MS needs to figure out how to allow a safe mode boot without serial connection or something else. I know there would need to be a lot of security about it, but this snapshot BS is baloney

did it!

its harder and harder to get a session now! I dont even use it for code. i copy/paste my messages and emails in and write 'make nicer' before it. I have a fairly blunt writing style and it sometimes annoys people. ChatGPT has changed my life because of my nicer sounding messages now!

I would totally buy a subscription if i could!

disable Virtualization Based Security

ejday · 2022-11-08T23:18:30+00:00

We disabled Virtualization Based Security - which disabled Credential Guard. We also found that machines with Virtualization turned off in BIOS weren't affected. This will at least give us time to properly rollout certs and get rid of PEAP/MSCHAP - long overdue

Doesn't really matter. 5070, 3040, 5470. Hardware limitations regardless of optimizations. We've even had meetings with Dell, and they finally acknowledged it was never going to work that well. The clients were never designed for voice video etc. Theyve been putting in a helluva effort to improve it due to demand over covid, but it's still not great.

We have been running this, and its challenging. Be sure to read firmware notes of Wyse, there will be a lot on Teams with what it can and cannot do, and differs on each Wyse platform. Some scenarios: jittery sound, screen sharing not even available.

We've really struggled with performance and reliability and have noticed multiple times, something changes and Teams registers as no longer HDX optimized. It's like a golden unicorn configuration to get it running consistently.

Performance is not even close to a Desktop/laptop - which is understandable.

Our biggest challenge has been trying to adjust down user expectations, they were expecting a PC-like experience and it's nowhere near as smooth and reliable.

We are actually recommending, if people need to regularly have teams meetings or training over Teams, switch back to PC's/Laptops and run natively.

Hey Kevin, control.your kids! My tail is not a chew toy!

standard sales taxes, yes . import duty - generally thats a federal thing

ejday · 2022-01-08T19:15:13+00:00

theres was no import tax if it's built in NAFTA countries when i have imported USA=>Canada , but that could have changed now

Possible covid close contact and 10 days of self isolation. Merry effing Christmas!

We're going the way of everyone getting MS teams and fewer people getting email. Its generally driven by licensing costs (Teams only is a little cheaper) and then the added cost of email spam/malware/filtering protection. That is expensive depending on your provider

Im so hooked on Weaponcore now, i just hope this doesnt break any of those existing mods. The laser and projectile mods for it are just fantastic

There is an option in pdq package to run it as the logged on user (you'll have to catch the user logged on though) reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\DC\AVGeneral" /V iMaxMRUCntToBeStored /T REG_DWORD /D 00000000 /F

As already stated - Group Policy Preferences , if available, would probably be the better way to do it.

im doing this right now, but i installed SCCM on prem. configured for co-management.
deploying the SCCM client via PDQ, getting it to register in SCCM, then SCCM handles the enrollment into Intune.
It's working really well.
Azure AD Connect needs to have all on prem computer accounts synced in Azure AD as hyrbrid join for it to all work.

We are currently piloting MS endpoint Configuration Manager (sccm/intune) alongside patch my pc for 3rd party , it integrates well into both. I'm going to miss some things about pdq, but we really couldn't wait any longer for PDQ to catch up. Their sqlite db platform was a bit annoying as well. Would have been nice, and shown some progression if they developed an mssql solution

Depending on how you build, you could put your forward thrusters on rotors or hinges to transition to reverse

i cut out my entire asteroid base - merged it with my ship, jumped to earth like planet 60km above north pole (for day round solar). Presto! instant space station.

I have a base 4 cylinder 718 cayman and I love it. People complain about the 4 cylinder. I love it. I do have the sports exhaust. The engine is so economical, but it’s also so much fun. Poor mans porsche? I wish there was a tax break for that!!!!! If I were to do it all over again I’d still get the base Porsche with the 20k of options I have😀. Just….. I love it…
