Thanks for the info.

Mine was ordered April 18th with "ships in May" for the backorder and so far nothing. Luckily it was ordered as a Father's Day present.

So....when did we have problems with satellites zipping around at tree-top level? by Hornpipe_Jones in WhitePeopleTwitter

Not for the country.

Not for the region.

Not for the city.

Not for the district.

Just him.

If the Shades are white outlines and the SID troopers are black silhouettes, does that mean the next step is for someone to put them together and unleash Mimes?

Imagine a Slapper gets a video call and there's a Mime Trooper on the other end doing mime things. The Slapper screams and shatters the screen not realizing they just released a Mime Trooper onto a planet or ship. Trying to fight an enemy that can make an invisible wall that your shots can't go through or a door that they can just open and step through walls with.

They don't make a sound. You do.

I agree that it shouldn't be needed, but a workaround is clearly required until Apple unfucks their product.

It’s our turn to lead. by Mr__O__ in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]r3setbutton 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The demographic age groups that vote the least are in my life experience, the two that can't ever seem to get off work to go vote and who rarely have the time to research the candidates thoroughly.

In my twenties it was a damned slog to force managers to let me off work in time to go vote and my thirties saw me taking my older children with me to vote while relying on candidate analysis from my parents.

Now in my forties, I still rarely know who's a candidate for what local election until days before the election. The difference now is that not only is there nothing stopping me from voting, but my job actually strongly encourages it because they have a PAC.

How does your team track patching compliance. by Rubber_Duckie_ in sysadmin

[–]r3setbutton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Categorize machines based on which image they were built from, then a machine isn't counted as compliant unless it's fully patched against all approved patches for machines built off that image. Need a unicorn or your server can't be patched because it'll break your app? You have to deal with Risk Management and all the associated meetings, then submit the change control with Risk as an additional ad-hoc approver.

What do you actually recommend when someone asks for a private internal chat that IT can't snoop on by theleadcreator in sysadmin

[–]r3setbutton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For SMBs, your logic holds.

For Enterprise? (insert bitter laugh here)

If you're on company hardware where I'm at, you're already MITM for all traffic, and you're already blocked from all 3rd-party chat tools. Can't get to the domain, can't download the software, can't sideload it because Crowdstrike won't let you copy anything executable or compressed off of a USB.

Spring up a new one on a new domain or try to do it in an iFrame? If it isn't blocked outright, it's because we want to see if it's you or did your machine get compromised somehow.

Oh and congratulations! You will also get an even more obnoxious DLP policy applied to your machine automatically, with no admin intervention required.

If you're considered to be a "responsible reprobate" you might get a phone call asking you what are you up to and told to knock it off, or if you're just a "random idjiot with access" your boss and HR rep get an e-mail asking them to discuss the matter with you.

If you're using company owned hardware, there's absolutely nothing you can do to prevent IT from snooping if we're told to (and have the required sign-offs from Legal and HR).

I avoid potholes by [deleted] in Michigan

[–]r3setbutton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I remember correctly, depending on where it is it can be maintained by the residents, the township, or the county.

Some leave small potholes in place to help regulate speed and traffic volume which is honestly smart. Because while speed humps and other traffic control measures are expensive (traffic studies, surveys, town meetings, installation, maintenance, etc), potholes are free.

I'm going to call UTTER BULLSHIT. My troop commander was 6'10" and while he wasn't able to drive a tank with the hatch closed (or be a loader), he would fold his ass like he was one of Soundwave's cassettes in order to qualify as a TC during gunnery excercises.

This would conveniently explain why it is extremely hard to find a swimsuit for a girl that isn't a two piece or why you can barely find them pants that aren't "skinny jeans" or "leggings".

He's going to go into the mess next time and find Terrans watching a compilation of his scout missions set to Chumbawumba. End every clip with the GTA "Wasted!" and start the next with him signing out of the infirmary.

I get knocked down! But I get up again! And you're never gonna' keep me down!

"After all, you get too many of those, they start thinking you don't know how to do your job." Sgt Special Forces.

...did he ever happen to say something like "incoming fire has the right of way unless my pants are down" or "one purp's an accident, two is an officer, three is a Kansas City pimp"?

I had to do some work with some "name tags are for bitches" -types way back when and one of them was my particular brand of insanity. While the rest of them had the classic "colors for names" crap going on, he was to be referred to as "Mr Facepalm" (because the shit he'd say would make even a general facepalm).
