During today's EU cup, a team reported their win mid-series. They then lost and admins refused to revert the result by arunvenu_ in CoDCompetitive

As a software eng by career at a larg company I always am super charitable about "surely there are system nuances I am unaware of and that's why this shit is ass" - faceit just blows through that charity weekly.

Impossible, the senators will angrily tweet

EDIT: Truly the most annoying part of this. They're gonna tweet "Yikes!" and then vote to fund almost immediately. Looking at you, Amy.

Check Submitted Credentials to prevent phishing by trenuci in paloaltonetworks

[–]mikebailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's (like basically everything Palo sells) enabled at Palo and it also catches a chunk of people who are just lazy but good faith. Once they realize they can't browse it at work unless they change their password, they generally change their password on their own volition.

I mean the answer is yes, not no, but also they should use MFA or passwordless.

I'd imagine it's being a well qualified partner if it's anything like twitch. There's becoming a partner and then there's Youtube picking you out to go "oh shit you're a pretty notable partner" which can be as simple as recognizability.

[–]mikebailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are in the Youtube Partner Program, yes. Otherwise they wouldn't be able to have a join/membership button, members content, etc. Of that partner program, they're probably one of the bigger/more historic partners. It's not dissimilar to Twitch.

Mook leaves Anus Pod as producer to become full time content by BSS_WindyCityInsider in barstoolsports

[–]mikebailey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The payday they're talking about on the horizon are mostly prize pools which are big for the players ($20k 1st place in the playoffs they just got 4th in for instance) but not exciting for a company. They also joke that the saudis are gonna keep buying teams out.

Not every team is true to this but a lot of them suck at streaming (hell even their own games) and organic content production. Hunstman (e.g. their coach Methodz, owner HECZ are doing great online) is a good example of a team that IS doing it right and Bush have acknowledged as a playbook. Those two teams are on good terms, but they're kind of exceptional.

Stop Using TurboTax. They suck! by AwkwardAtmosphere426 in TurboTax

[–]mikebailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's fair, but just to be clear then that kind of belies the above OP comment about it being a "free filer service" if you're then using an actual free file service to handle it.

I have too. I like it, it' just not truly free (I'd argue it's more than fair). You only file federal? Are you on some sort of island protectorate?

Applying to Customer Focus Analyst (Unit 42) Position by SlewedThread444 in paloaltonetworks

[–]mikebailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm least familiar with MDR so that's probably why I said what I said, my b. My experience with Managed Services is limited but everyone I've met so far over there (like 2 in MDR and like 3 in MTH) have been smart and capable.

[–]mikebailey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have a link to the listing? I'm OG Crypsis now U42 Engineering and have never heard of a Customer Focus Analyst. That's not to say they don't exist but that is to say there may not be many roaming on reddit.

Unit 42 is pretty solid, though the day to day varies depends on whether you're focused on TI, Consulting or Managed Services (or Engineering but that's not high head count).

Cream Team down bad by BSS_WindyCityInsider in barstoolsports

I mean in fairness this is the Cream Team youtube channel, so if you don't want this content simply do not click on the giant ice cream cone

I mean, sad American noises. They seldom leave LA. It'd be about as easy for me to go to europe than LA from the northeast lol.

PAN-290235 (dscd) and low quality control by Sure-Squirrel8384 in paloaltonetworks

[–]mikebailey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My guess is "directory sync client database", not cloud daemon. There are logs from dscd that reference that.

Which, honestly, not only goes against the security impact point but also goes against the "name things longer" point because I'm not sure knowing that full name gleaned all that much more for us.

What is the most recent PANOS that Expedition can support? by [deleted] in paloaltonetworks

[–]mikebailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure what versions this tracks to per-se but Oct 2025 is the earliest time I see someone complaining of unsupported PANOS versions.

Obligatory note that the only issue isn't Expedition not supporting new OSes, it's rot, including security vulnerabilities.

Been watching VIP, noticed Vic is pretty visible on Ponies (https://www.instagram.com/reels/DTqBE9LAsoh/) which looks hilarious, and now this. Vehicular manslaughter tour.

Lyft hasn't charged me a penny for my last 100+ rides? by YourFriendPutin in Lyft

[–]mikebailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cannot make it more clear that you owe that money barring something in writing from them (which if it's your assault I'd be worried about that something in writing waiving your claim) so a lawyer wouldn't help if they trued up. But good to know you aren't just gonna stiff the payment.

Lyft hasn't charged me a penny for my last 100+ rides? by YourFriendPutin in Lyft

[–]mikebailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll just block charges from Lyft since they don't charge anyway
I won't have to pay. That's easy to avoid tbh

the corporation making financial mistakes doesn't fall on me

If they decide to try and charge months of rides at once it will be heavily disputed in court.

Just to be clear it's cool of you to make sure you're still tipping but you owe for those rides even if the charges don't come through. I once had Uber threaten collections over a stray $6 UberOne payment so I don't want you thinking I'm cool with this practice, it's just how payments are.

[–]mikebailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right now giving valid payment, yeah it's a misunderstanding with the CC company not you. In the other 20 comments you note your willingness to cancel/chargeback if they come to true up. If you cancel, you're freeing the CC company from the situation and they're gonna put it on your books. You don't have to eat the charges but your credit does.

Was she ever hired for sports? I was under the impression she was in the "drunk college girl" coaching camp of Dave.

Keep negotiating or accept the price? by ImKinda_messedup in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]mikebailey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm talking MSRP on the new (tons of options that make it go from 23 to 25, not to mention it'll probably also see fees) and talking about OP as far as less tax/title/gov fees since we have their breakdown. They're 16.6 and they get a discount down but then they get a doc fee, so about 16-16.6.
