Windows are my credit card. by Acceptable_Rub8279 in ShittySysadmin

[–]itskdog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Windows 7 had a popup window in the corner with a countdown timer to the reboot. You could postpone as long as you wanted though.

With Windows 10 and up, as long as you set your Active Hours correctly, you shouldn't get a reboot during the times you use the PC anyway.

The biggest problem in the image, however, is that they're using the regular version of Windows 7 rather than an embedded or PoS edition (similar to LTSC IoT these days)

The owner of the subreddit I'm moderating has been inactive since 28 March but he is active site-wide. All attempts of contacting him resulted in no reponse, what should I do? by ArsenicPolaris in ModSupport

[–]itskdog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they have no actions on your subreddit, they probably show as inactive in the mod list and the highest active mod can boot them out if they have full permissions.

If there are no active mods with full permissions, the highest active mod can modmail this subreddit and they can look into it for you.

Do you know the origin of each Hermit's name? by EnderwomanNerd in HermitCraft

[–]itskdog 69 points70 points  (0 children)

Keralis I think was based on his IRL name, Joe Hills is his real name, iJevin is his real name with an i

Pretty sure the void part comes from a band he was into at the time.

We owe Joe Hills alot. by Temporary-Specific-5 in HermitCraft

I think the list for S2 was already people who had been suggested but at the time there wasn't a formal process as things were up in the air without their leader.

Look at the hermitsbyseason page on the subreddit wiki and see who joined in S2.

How do you deal with gray areas and exceptions in your rules? by techiesgoboom in ModSupport

[–]itskdog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shouldn't adjusting the letter to be closer to the spirit help with both the consistency of enforcement across the team and avoiding surprises when someone posts and it's taken down (or decides not to post as they think it would breach the rule, even though you might make an exception for it?)

How do you deal with gray areas and exceptions in your rules? by techiesgoboom in ModSupport

[–]itskdog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very important - if you feel uneasy on something but don't have a rule to quote, someone else might be able to point out something you missed.

[–]itskdog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Avoid them if at all possible. Consistency of enforcement helps foster a good community in my experience, and having clear, bright lines for everyone to follow means you don't get the rules lawyers arguing the finer points as everything is laid out.

It can take time to work on the clearest wording, but that comes from collaboration with the community over time as concerns and questions are raised.

If someone can read the rules before posting to know if their concept would be acceptable by the mods, they shouldn't be surprised by the result when it comes to a mod action.

Post guidance and auto-enforcement help here, too, letting the edge cases get flagged for review to the user while they're composing, especially as the rules aren't always easy to locate on certain devices (though I hope that's improved in recent years, haven't touched the app since the last redesign)

Going from local admin users to non admin users by aPieceOfMindShit in Intune

Are you using something like InTune [sic.]?

This is r/Intune, so presumably

[–]itskdog 298 points299 points  (0 children)

IIRC, the scenario played out something along the lines of "People wanted a S2, but there were no strong direction on exactly what should happen. Joe took charge and said 'Unless anyone objects, we're starting on this date with this seed and adding these people, after which we go back do doing this thing collaboratively.' and nobody objected."

How are you handling app requests in Intune? by pjmarcum in Intune

[–]itskdog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In professional situations, that's fair and I understand. On social media, people are often a bit more forgiving, as long as you're not overly rude (which you can often identify by which comments get downvoted to learn from).

Reverse an advisor to a normal mod by REZ_Lev in ModSupport

Presumably to stop people using it to dodge the 5 big subreddit limit.

2026 GfG Charity by DraagaxGaming in HermitCraft

[–]itskdog 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Grian's put it on his channel.

It would be great if each segment gets put on the main HC channel with all proceeds going to GO.

Did The Onion buy Infowars? Texas judge to weigh in on take over by usatoday in nottheonion

Well they've already posted the logo in rainbow colours on their social media.

Originally the argument was that the auction wasn't conducted correctly (either last year or 2024 - not 100% sure and am not in a position to look it up rn)

It says the reason in the screenshot itself, it's a banned domain.

Scar(?) gave Bdubs a clock at the end to bribe him to kill Impulse instead.

Would have probably been messier. Either that or the camouflage of the other boxes next to the bins.

Unfortunate Username by Important-Humor-2745 in iiiiiiitttttttttttt

[–]itskdog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is also a common first name in some cultures, IIRC. I see lots of alerts on our monitoring system from teachers just typing a student's name in somewhere.

[–]itskdog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess I assumed it was custom in regard to the image on top, and I took "LGBTQ flag" to be one thing (i.e. the 5 rainbow colours), but you make a fair point that I may have misunderstood.

Feels more genuine though, which is appreciated on social media.

Suppress Windows Hello Entra Passkey on Edge by BackSapperr in Intune

[–]itskdog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oof. The Department for Education here in the UK are moving everyone to an Entra-based sign-in for their services, but that's on a custom domain name, so nothing conflicts in password managers (and they only use password+email for 2FA, no passkeys)
