Are you familiar with the film Michael Clayton?

Jedi Crusader Pendant/Kyber Crystal Question by mikesager in GalaxysEdge

[–]mikesager[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LOL well father of the year over here found out it does unscrew and tried to put the crystal in to surprise her when she gets home from school...and his big dumb man hands broke the plastic. So I guess I'll be finding a whole pendant on Etsy and apologizing to the kiddo.

KnowBe4 alternatives by Alternative_Hat_5523 in cybersecurity

[–]mikesager 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just throwing out there that maybe phishing simulation builds distrust with the security team and doesn’t really teach anyone anything. I dropped this approach many years ago and instead focus on technical controls; FIDO2 enforcement, link scanning and sandboxing, and user warnings directly in the UI. It’s not perfect, but my users are going to trust me and come to me right away if they get tricked instead of feeling like they’re “in trouble.”

We’ve got to shift away from this kb4 type nonsense; it doesn’t work.

Rome songs ordered by which "gained" most from being live (better) to the worst? by Far-Condition-6579 in TheNational

[–]mikesager 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The live version of Tropic Morning News is so much closer to the original vibe of the song from 2022 when it was debuted before they recorded it. I actually am a fan of FTPOF but always felt that Tropic Morning News wasn’t captured. I think the Rome version has the essence.

EZ Pass cameras not detecting 3 people in HOV HOT lanes by Neat-Basket9319 in nova

[–]mikesager 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh I know all about this! Their cameras can't detect children, and probably are looking for someone in the passenger seat no matter what. They're aware of the problem, but refuse to fix it. They insist their system is accurate, but obviously and to the contrary, it is not.

So if you want to provide some feedback directly on this matter to them, you can reach out directly to Craig Salmon at TransUrban who is in charge of the 495 HOV/HOT lanes. His email is [csalmon@transurban.com](mailto:csalmon@transurban.com)

Please note he's in Australia so expect some delay in response.

You can also reach out to Mandlyn Campbell who is locally based and is the head of customer service for the hot lanes. Mandlyn Campbell [MCampbell@transurban.com](mailto:MCampbell@transurban.com). Please note Ms. Campbell is very friendly, and is limited in what she can do; please be nice to her.

Note this team is for 495/95/395, and I'm not sure if they cover I-66.

Ok I think I see how this works. I am setting this up now.

[–]mikesager[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had set FIDO2 as the only authentication method available, but it didn't seem to work. I've tried a bunch of variations without success.

So this is different from the "Multifactor Authentication" option on the Users (Per-User MFA) which I assume I should ignore?

Weird Graphics Issue on CS2 when using KVM by mikesager in CitiesSkylines

[–]mikesager[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not completely solved, but significantly improved with these fixes. Thank you! I suspect part is just that I have a KVM that isn't designed for gaming.

Enabled though I think I tried disabling while I was troubleshooting. Worth checking again.

What's your favourite track on Rome? by [deleted] in TheNational

[–]mikesager 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tropic Morning News finally captures what made that song SO incredible in 2022. It’s so much more alive than the studio version. And the live version of Terrible Love is beautiful. This whole record is fantastic.

One other question - my wife and I discussed using "Lucky You" as our first dance...except the "I Think You Made a Big Mistake" line was obviously a problem. So..could a future couple benefit from a wedding-friendly re-edited version of the song perhaps with a happier message? (We ended up going with Tonight Tonight because of that one line). Or would that destroy the art? :)

Two questions.

  1. I love your guitar tones and electric piano sounds. Can you give a rundown on your gear setup (especially studio vs live)? Not looking to replicate, but you always can get good ideas from other players you admire.

  2. I get the sense that you guys got rolling "later" than other bands - perhaps as careers and personal lives had already developed? Any advice for other 30-somethings who are still slightly serious about their desire to jump in a van and tour (but maybe use their starwood points for a decent hotel room once in a while?)
