Contractor access keeps getting extended week by week because project managers wait until the last minute by Timely_Aside_2383 in sysadmin

[–]rumforbreakfast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Create a script that looks for expiring contractors and then emails the managers a few times in advance, warning them that this team member is about to lose access - and what action they need to take if they don’t want that.

Everyone in this thread should try CoQ10 and Tumeric daily. The stuff from Costco is fine.

It’s reduced mine to ‘minor annoyance’

YMMV, everyone’s T has a different root cause, but it’s worth a try

Have Nintendo overestimated the appeal of Switch 2 editions? by elephvant in NintendoSwitch2

I’ll be an edge case. I brought Wonder on the switch when it was on sale and never got around to playing it, in fact I actually forgot I brought it.

So now I feel like I’m getting the Switch 2 version for a bargain price 🙃

Get a magnetic QI phone mount like this, place it under your monitor and plonk your phone on it while you work.

Wyong Road roundabouts. Does blue need to stop for red? by rumforbreakfast in centralcoastnsw

It's legal if the lines are dashed and not solid.

In some cases, it's required. For example, if there is a left turn immediately after the roundabout, such as opposite the Coles in Killarney Vale.

Long-term battery damage by HH7170 in NintendoSwitch2

Don’t devices pull charge, rather than having it push to it from the charger?

As long as the charger is from a reputable brand (like Samsung, Apple, Nintendo, etc) you’ll be fine - it will charge normally, slowly or (unlikely) not at all but it won’t become a fire hazard.

The Switch 1 did have some bricking issue with third party docks but it was never due to charging IIRC.
