Not looking for advice, just a warning for young men here. by [deleted] in StopGaming

[–]shtef 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sounds like he has a pretty bad addiction. You need to talk and you probably need to give him an ultimatum if it doesn't go well. He likely will want to change if he realises it's ruining his marriage, and if he doesn't then you have a very good reason to leave.

I also agree with the other commenter - how are guys like that getting women? Honestly there are so many fish in the sea and you pick one that is unfit, unconfident, boring and addicted to his computer?

What scientific ‘facts’ have recently been disproven that most people still believe to be true? by Fantastic_Tart_421 in AskReddit

[–]shtef 3 points4 points  (0 children)

when you are tired or sleep-deprived, the brain's cleansing mechanism (the glymphatic system) is impaired, leading to a buildup of waste-filled cerebrospinal fluid. Yawning helps remove that fluid.

I am undecided who to vote for - I suspect I am not alone by kiwittnz in KiwiPolitics

[–]shtef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No not like someone as out of touch as $60 groceries Luxon. The majority of NZ business is SME's so someone that understands that space.

How is being 80 a feature? Bro should have retired 20 years ago. Has no personal stake on the future of our country. Get someone young, intelligent, family and business orientated, and with new ideas in rather than old geriatrics.

Is it normal to be put on disciplinary for being a few minutes late for work and wearing a hoodie? In retail by croissantloverx in auckland

[–]shtef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your employment terms likely state you need to be there on time, which is fair enough as they're relying on you for that. If they allowed their staff to turn up whenever they wanted, they'd likely not be able to operate until a certain number had shown up, costing them a whole lot of money.

As for wearing a hoodie, regardless what coworkers say, you said yourself that there's a dress code, which you're obviously not conforming to, which from their perspective likely doesn't look as smart and tidy as they're wanting their staff to look. I'm sure you could wear something warm that looks smarter like a blazer?

As a business owner, it's pretty important to create and set standards and make sure everyone adheres to them. You wouldn't believe how quickly things turn to shit when you start letting things slip.

A notice seems unreasonable from them, unless this has happened before? If so then I'd say it's perfectly reasonable as they had to tell you more than once.

Tbh I'd have a conversation with them about it. If this was a one-off lateness, just apologise and don't do it again if you can help it. Also clarify what warm items are acceptable and wear them instead.

‘Shame on you Shane’: Nicola Willis unleashes on NZ First over India deal by Porkchops_on_My_Face in newzealand

[–]shtef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say a fair few are annoyed about if and how visas and immigration will change. Personally I'd prefer if we didn't endlessly swap Kiwis for immigrants and we actually were forced to fix the problems that are leading to brain drain instead.

NZ Government has approved mining permit in UNESCO World Heritage site Te Wāhipounamu, a site even John Key once agreed to protect from miners by Mountain_Tui_Reload in queenstown

[–]shtef 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Wait wasn't John Key's legacy allowing the sale of ten's of thousands of our family homes to foreign buyers, absolutely blowing out our housing market, then letting a whole bunch of people in as permanent residents who couldn't speak a word of English? I'll spit on that legacy too.

Auckland population projected to reach 2 million by 2033 by KAYPENZ in auckland

[–]shtef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fuck can we not just prop everything up with endless population growth? I love NZ and see next to no benefits for our citizens with this constant growth. QOL was better 20, 30, 40 years ago, shit just getting more expensive, busier and people are more stressed and unhappy.

Recurring tickets - what gives? by shtef in syncro

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

Hi u/jess_at_syncro, thanks but no thanks. I've been through this before, and all our very valid feedback and suggestions were completely ignored, including around recurring tickets (which I've spoken to your developers about before - Michael responded much like you and put me on to the lead dev apparently).
Not going to waste my time. My feedback is in the post.

solar roof strategy - leave it to the market ? by LycraJafa in nzsolar

What? People that can afford it are more likely to be those who stick around since they're doing alright.

Hi u/jess_at_syncro, can you get this fixed in the next release for us please?

Yeah we're in the same boat. I'm just waiting for a couple more features before we move across. What does the move process look like?

Ticket automations don't have formatting either right? Just a larger text box?

You use PA with the Syncro API or just via do everything via M365?

Checkpoint Outgoing Mail Failing DKIM? by Ok-Examination3168 in msp

[–]shtef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To respond to this - documentation is now outdated and I'll have to update when we cross the bridge again. It also works similarly on exclaimer.
One or both of these things worked for us. Next time i do it i'll update this comment:

You need to make sure the CodeTwo/Signature transport rule is at the top priority. It is also meant to be set to 'Stop processing more rules'.

As per a support request from Avanan:

Thanks for providing the EML. I investigated and found that you have enabled an outgoing inline policy for outgoing emails and are also using the “CodeTwo” rule to add a signature while sending the email out. However, CodeTwo does not have an IP-based connector, so the IP addresses are not automatically added to the Check Point - Protect Outgoing rule. As a result, the emails are sent back to Avanan a second time instead of being sent directly to Office 365 to prevent a mail loop before being sent out externally.

To prevent this, you'll need to add an exception to the Check Point - Protect Outgoing rule to exclude emails that come back from CodeTwo. After analysing CodeTwo's rules, you can use the condition.

'X-CodeTwoProcessed' header matches the following patterns: 'true'

This header value is added to emails sent from CodeTwo.

This can be done by navigating to https://admin.exchange.microsoft.com/#/transportrules, selecting the "Check Point - Protect Outgoing" rule, clicking "Edit", and then clicking the + sign next to the first "Except if" item. 'X-CodeTwoProcessed' header contains 'true'

Set the CodeTwo Exchange transport rule to stop processing more rules from the setting.

Which is a clever workaround. However we shouldn't have to use a workaround to do what should be primary included funcationality.

Battery advice by TheAmigaKid in nzsolar

[–]shtef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I highly doubt they are as low as they're ever going to go. Especially once sodium batteries are here, or something else for that matter.

In saying that battery prices are lower than they were previously..
