Thanks for reminding me about this!

We used to use that method for the company I was working for. We would setup laptops in advance and they were in the early process of setting up intune. Since we didn’t have a user account, we’d use your method to continue setup to get to the desktop.

I think we’d then run commands in pwershell to have the machine appear on intune.

It was a good few years ago and it was a very annoying, arduous time. They worked out the kinks eventually and that was no longer required.

In all fairness, I only know them as subs mainly because of Subway. Before that, I probably would have considered it a roll.

But I am Australian

You have more faith in me than I do xD

Appreciate the kind words

Often… I have sometimes spent hours trying to photoshop faces of my mates (with permission) on random objects or random scenarios, like a cat or kettle, trying to make it look as normal as my skills allow for a 1-off joke.

I like the idea to counteract the grogginess of the sleeping tablet, but I lack the knowledge to know if that would work.

I’m guessing it would have been digested by then, right?

I would love this so much right now…

I have this same reaction quite often…

This was my thought process as well.

I did consider whether making good art could help fund other global issues, but I think there’s too many variables. Whereas being able to make it rain would have an arguably more immediate impact.

Can we also control when to turn it off? xD

I’m thankful our HR gave us notice when I was in Desktop Support.

The rare occasion we received short notice from HR or the general exec of our tech division was due to an immediate termination, and that was usually due to people not passing probation, or for egregious behaviour like sending 100s of GB to their personal email after they resigned and we’re in their notice period.

Or we once had a guy who was completely off the rails… we don’t know what happened exactly, but a user called up and he was having a manic episode and was convinced someone hacked his account/phone and was listening to him.

We raised it as a concern and a few weeks (maybe a month or so later) we were asked to terminate his account.

I heard he had stopped taking his meds. Hope he’s alright now… he was a nice fellow usually.

Pretty big oopsie, lol

Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll try there!

I wish I knew, they don’t seem to know what happened either, unfortunately.

The Finals is a nice arcade-y feeling FPS.

I don’t feel like I’m very good with it either, but I still enjoy it. It’s a strange feeling, lol

I’ve also been meaning to get back into Minecraft…

I have sunk a lot of time i to Baldurs Gate 3 over the last couple of weeks.

Man, what a game.

I think it might be the best RPG I’ve ever played. But I’m struggling to place it amongst others I grew up playing, like Dragon Age Origins, Mass Effect, SWKotOR…

I 2nd this. I was playing CS 1.6 around that age. Although lootboxes weren’t a thing back then and you could download and use your own skins from sites like gamebanana and have custom sprays…

Sometimes, I miss the older days. Just with better internet.

I get that too. It’s a flaw of my character, I guess, that stems from past experience on other social media platforms I’ve used throughout my life.

But, I’ve been trying, but probably not as much as I could…

I got to play in snow for the first time the other day. It was fantastic :)
