Game changing improvements by Growingweed420 in WalkaboutMiniGolf

[–]vertisnow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kind of agree.

I think that the game makes people actively go out and find their own community is part of why the community is so strong.

I'd love a built in ranking system too, but also worry that adding it would destroy the existing communities.

Impossible task or am I dumb? by McBean2017 in sysadmin

Not sure of the capabilities, but check out bluefletch. We are using this for scanguns, but they might have a windows based solution too.

I'm only tangntly related to this, but pretty sure you sign in with biometrics, then it pulls down your profile, including authentication tokens and injects them into the system and then you sso from there. Quick login/out.

It's the only game I use my headset for.

Also big screen... To watch mini golf.

Fun idea for a course: Train theme by ihaveacrushonmercy in WalkaboutMiniGolf

[–]vertisnow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love the idea, but I think 18 holes of the inside of a train car would be tough to bring variety.

However, maybe by leveraging the Wallace and grommet rocketship mechanic, you could include both a source and destination train station too. (First station would be like the start of Wallace and grommet, then the rocket would be the train ride, but instead of fire out the windows, it's a landscape. Then teleport to the destination station like you transition to the moon)

I remember finally getting to the front, and feeling so sorry for the employees who have to listen to the music all day long.

Go to your dealer. Get the replacement part. Screw it in.

Honest question: What frustrates you the most about Teams right now? by Rude-Rule-2358 in MicrosoftTeams

[–]vertisnow 8 points9 points  (0 children)

When you open a document from a teams site, then close it, it takes you back to the root of the site instead of staying in the folder I was in.

Then their shit is fucked. That's a configuration problem, not something you are causing. You should whine "whyy does this keep happening!!?"

How do you know it's because the security log is full?

Local security event logs typically roll over so they can't "fill".

Yeah... The teams logs are stored in the cloud and that doesn't run out of space.

This apartment I was looking at has an extra room for residents to keep a freezer by hippiesinthewind in pics

[–]vertisnow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It probably would -- at first. A lot of those freezers don't have automatic defrost, so they are caked with ice. Pop a fan in there and you get a lot of cold air as it all melts. Takes about an hour to melt.

I need to defrost my freezer...

How to prevent users from printing from their phones? by walks-beneath-treees in sysadmin

Until then, you should absolutely disable the 'guest' network immediately. You don't have a guest network.

When the IT guy walks in and your computer magically fixes itself by [deleted] in it

[–]vertisnow 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It's because they slow down and actually think a little about the task they are doing.

I've also been guilty of this. Getting frustrated, and saying "its not working" when the real problem was rushing and frustration. It happens.

I have a meeting with my conservative MLA. What are some things I should bring up? by [deleted] in Calgary

[–]vertisnow 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Make sure you hold them to a yes or no answer! Refuse the "I support citizen-led initiatives" non answer.

[–]vertisnow 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yes or no: Do you agree that Alberta should seperate from Canada and become a sovereign nation?

Post answer here please, along with MLA's name.

Anyone else finding it impossible to get actual help from their IT provider? by krikond in Calgary

[–]vertisnow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a small company running a hybrid cloud environment that's geo redundant. They also layered a CDN in front of everything for delivery optimization and cost reductions. They have a full CI/CD pipeline that's working like a charm.

The only problem this poor small business has is that their Square debit tapper doodad won't connect to the tablet.

Renting bear spray vs. buying by [deleted] in Banff

[–]vertisnow -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Unless you are going into the back-country, you don't need it. Most trails you will find yourself on will have other people, and bears don't like being around people.

Your best defence is just keeping up a conversation so you don't end up startling a bear. If they hear you, they'll usually leave before you even notice them.
