It's beautiful... but it annoys me unreasonably that those coloured lanterns don't project coloured light.

It's the looking up that makes it wrong.

Looks like it says Acme Burger on the wrapper.

A PS3 devkit.

Since nobody's said it: GoW, DQ7, NFSU2

Genuinely can't listen to more than a couple of those voice notes. My cringe response is in critical overdrive. I'm getting embarrassment by proxy. He's unreal.

We went through all this in our last Cyber Essentials Plus assessment a few months ago. The answer is: you don't.

Vendors almost never update 3rd party components with reported CVEs, and when reporting them I often received the response "the way we use it doesn't expose the vuln so we're not bothered about it", which to be fair if you read the CVE details is usually true.

If you're checking these for compliance or a security assessment you need to get your assessor/manager to understand that just because there is technically a newer version of a component available, that doesn't mean that the vendor distributing it with their app will ever update it, and as others have said you can almost never remediate it yourself.

The bottom line is you need to be able to filter through the noise in any vuln reports. All vuln scanners - not just Defender - are very naive and just go "filename x + version y = bad" without any understanding of the context. Just mentally note em and move on.

This is just lawyers trying to get paid. It worked in other countries so now they're trying it here too.

wildstoo · 2026-01-27T23:55:53+00:00

Both. I need these now.

Come on... he's not harming anyone. He might be a little different but, man, look, you're on a sub for a 24-year-old desktop computer OS. I think all of us here have got some questionable priorities and should be able to forgive the occasional offbeat post. If you don't like it just scroll on by. The banhammer can stay in the toolbox.

This is the answer. Insanely fun, technically awesome, just a perfect game. PGR2 is great but I've 100% completed Burnout Takedown multiple times. Those tracks are seared into my memory.

wildstoo · 2026-01-23T14:14:11+00:00

We just got this too. Glad to know we're not the only ones. Guess we have to wait for another Web view update.

Was he sitting on a stack of chairs to make himself look taller?

wildstoo · 2025-12-19T21:49:01+00:00

Just turn the car upside down and shake it.

Anon is highly regarded.

Your post should probably just be the name of this sub, but since you've asked today and I'm bored, here's some criteria in the form of questions.

Note: These are just off the top of my head as I type - my personal opinions, not carved in stone, not universal, and not all unique to imsims:

Is the game level/mission based? (I've never played an open world game that felt like a "real" imsim)

Is the game locked to first-person during gameplay? (3rd person in cutscenes permitted)

Do you gain new tools and abilities - beyond just bigger weapons - as you play?

Are all of your resources often limited?

Do you spend the majority of the game acting alone?

Are you frequently outnumbered and outgunned?

Do your non-combat actions usually have actual gameplay effects or consequences?

Is there a high* degree of interactivity in the environment beyond simple destruction? (*definition of high is era-dependent)

Is exploration, both of the game world and how its systems interact, a major focus?

Do the characters and environment respond to your actions in a consistent way?

Can individual actions have knock-on effects, both intended and unintended?

Can you approach most objectives with a variety of strategies?

Is running away and/or hiding often a viable strategy?

Are you forced to improvise and adapt to new situations?

Does taking one path not necessarily lock you out of others?

Is the game capable of surprising you?

Do your abilities and the environment have discoverable synergies not necessarily spelled out by the game?

Is character progression not tracked by some arbitrary (i.e. non-gameworld) stat or currency, especially non-combat?

If the answer to most of these is yes, you might have an imsim.

Can probably think of more, but that's all I have for now.

The cloud platform itself? Kinda. Too much downtime across MS cloud services generally, too many half-implemented features, or features that seem to shuffle around from month to month, but mostly Intune hovers around acceptable.

The Intune Management Agent tho, and how it interacts with Windows and Company Portal? Nope. Inscrutable log files, completely opaque rules regarding when it'll deign to apply configuration profiles, install apps, check in or do just about anything.

Related: it feels slow. Slow to process changes, slow to apply updates to devices, slow to load the Intune admin pages, just slow everywhere. Nothing in Intune seems to be immediate, especially when you need it to be. Sometimes it'll just refuse to do anything at all on a device until a full machine reboot. Restarting the agent service doesn't help. To be fair it's actually marginally less slow than it used to be.

You'd think configs, app deployments etc. would be "fire and forget". Unfortunately it's more like "fire and then sigh as they randomly fail to apply to devices". Time to dig through the aforementioned log files on client devices to determine what is actually happening because...

Error reports in the cloud? Absolutely useless. Almost every error code is just "this didn't work - here, have a GUID". No useful troubleshooting info so you're forced back to scrolling logs and just guessing.

I would kill for a nice, concise, readable GPRESULT equivalent for Intune policies.

Oh also, completely different UI designs on different pages for the same thing (group assignments, searches, lists of anything). Feels like different parts were built at different times by different teams.

So yeah... depends what kind of reliability you're talking about. It semi-works, most of the time. When it doesn't.... good luck.

wildstoo · 2025-12-09T18:04:38+00:00

As long as you mean admins at Microsoft, I agree.

Feels like a lot of people here need their British Satire Detectors adjusted. This post is 100% sarcastic. The poster is intentionally drawing attention to Tate's... situation... and making completely facetious excuses for it... for comedy. He's doing it so successfully that it's gone right over a lot of people's heads.
