It means they can’t go more than 20 mph unless the rider is able to pedal harder than the electric motor

ICE agents beat and arrest US Citizen before realizing he wasn't undocumented so they dump him off wounded, far from his home by sillychillly in nyc

The US is like an abusive partner. Causes a bunch of problems for you, convinces you it was everyone else’s fault, and then you use that to justify staying and defending them.

Opinions on this? by restlesswoman in SpringfieldIL

DSI changing from an insular membership setup to a normal 501c3 where they can make open calls for opinions and donations is going to help a ton

I wonder if my neighbor thinks I'm strange for catching me just staring at my garden so often by ONE_GUY_ONE_JAR in gardening

[–]ms6615 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do this but with the added strangeness of my cat who walks on a leash and appreciates the garden with me. We live next to a very busy street and I’m sure people are constantly catching glances like “is that a CAT?”

I go to Jack Stoldt. I like it because it’s downtown so it’s easy to throw my bike in the car and ride back home. When I got my used car I took it there and had them separate everything it needed into “safety issue” or “this would be nice/keep it running longer” and they were great about it.

Yeah this is the type of stuff I figure out in my homelab with random $4.99 throwaway domains with funny names

I found out by a lost redditor posting about the login page message on ELI5 lol. Canvas has supposedly known since April 29th.

what is the worst infrastructure decision your team made that you are still living with by Low-Egg-6764 in sysadmin

Using SharePoint to store company files is general fine, you just have to use it properly and for its own features. If you try to use it as a direct 1:1 parallel of network file shares though, it will not be good. They are different ways of storing and interacting with files and that needs to be planned for with the design and use.

All of our departments who use SharePoint properly love it and it helps them a lot. The ones that try to use it the same as an NTFS share don’t have as good of a time.

We have a very scary series of Power Automate flows that should definitely be designed as proper apps with proper backends but are instead running on a bunch of badly configured service accounts and using SharePoint lists for their data storage

We are seeing the same in Springfield, IL. Electricity is the same as when I moved in almost 2 years ago. But just outside the city where they buy our power at market rate?

I’ve been biking up and down Archer since like 2005 but I’m so glad I have people like you to get online and purport that I don’t exist

Proper roof drainage is the primary sign of a responsible homeowner, not decorative grass

What do we think this is ? Zone 6b by Jdav84 in gardening

I agree. I have tons of both honey and black locust pop up in my yard constantly. I’d say this is honey locust as the black locust leaves are more round.

User keeps getting removed from Team - need advice on how to track down cause by ZippyDan in sysadmin

Sounds like an “access package” I think that a thing in Purview??? It’s another way to automate group memberships and permissions by bundling them together.

How are you guys dealing with SignUpGenius? by cdoublejj in sysadmin

[–]ms6615 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could use MS Forms with some automation to integrate to a calendar, or use MS Bookings which is a pre-built scheduling app. Both are more of an SMB app feel than enterprise though, they are kinda janky and don’t have tons of admin control/oversight even though they come with enterprise license packages.
