If you get these types of error running pacman update
error: failed retrieving file 'mingw32.db' from repo.msys2.org : SSL certificate problem: self signed certificate in certificate chain
one way to fix it is to replace ca-bundle.crt with the self-signed certificate.
This works for us going through netsweeper.

How to add the pupils to existing empty teams with powershell

Not being overly familiar with powershell I keep this list to remeber how to do stuff and help do new stuff.
I reproduce the list to help anyone else looking for the right command

It's taken me 3 hours to figure out that the scheduled task command
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -file .....
No longer works as intended. Although it allows the powershell script and by extension ninite pro to run, something is getting blocked.
If I run the ninite command on the command line it works fine. If I run the powershell command on the command line, the script runs
So it was always my impression that one of the benefits of virtualization was less disasters and easier recovery. And practically the only way to loose a virtual server would be either accidently broke windows or the SAN broke. In any other circumstance the VM could be recovered from the SAN. We have a backup NAS for the most important VMs as a means for fast recovery in case of accidental breakage. Important Vms like print server or Domain controller. Other things It wouldn't be disaster to h
There's 2 ways to connect to office365 through powershell.
MSOL
Exchange online.
You can add members to a security group using MSOL but you have to use EOL for distribution groups or mail-enabled security groups.
At this juncture I only know how to get user data using msol.
(we use -like @ domain because pupils have a different subdomain)
#connect MSOL
connect-msolservice
get-msoluser -all | where-object {$_.userprincipalname -like "domain"} | export-csv -path "d:\staffe
Word is that Haven Protocol (XHV) is a decent CPU/GPU currency to mine at the moment. Cryptoknight.cc reports it's profit as around $2.60 KH/$/Day but you have to remember Haven uses cryptonight-heavy which means 1KH is 2-3 times as much power as normal cryptonight coins e.g Monero.
Also worth a look is a Brazillian cryptonight coin called Niobio, although I haven't managed to find a remote daemon link for it as the wallet itself had a problem downloading the blockchain. But you can sell i
What I need is a company that comes to school and says.
We want to rent some of your computing power to do "work", you'll get a percentage of the value of the "work". Due to the market the value of the "work" changes but you'll always get more than you would spend in electricity. All you have to do is install our client on your computers. We'll send you a monthly report of how much "work" your computers performed, the cost of the electricity and how much we'll pay you for the work. It

My email is [email protected]
Occasionally I get mail addressed to [email protected]
i.e. no dot
As it happens, gmail accounts with dots in also have an alias of no dot. So [email protected] is a legit alias of my email.
So the strange thing is the mail i get to the alias is someone else's mail.
My email is def not compromised and I have 2 factor authentication.
The mails I get are typically signup mails where the signup mail is
Every month I ponder whether I should make myself a new computer; since I've had this one for 5 years. I think I can put it off till Fallout 5 is released. The last time I replaced my PC it was so that Final Fantasy xiv would work.
I still plan what I would buy if I were to do it.
My Budget is usually around £800 but I got some extra in lieu from a long service award. My ideal pc has decent quality components, best performance, quiet as possible.
Also I'm "attached" to certain brands.

I just discovered you can't install Office 2013 or 2016 32bit on Win 10 version 1703 64bit. I suppose it makes sense to keep all the bits the same. Still it would have been better if there was an actual error message rather than the installer just exiting.
the main error seems to be related to ExcelMUI.MSI.
Of course the 64bit version of either works just fine...

If you 're thinking you could do with more income, might I suggest taking up "Dropshipping". It's a method of selling online whereby one holds no stock. Ebay call it "Product sourcing" and describe it thus: "Sellers using a product sourcing service never handle the item—instead it is sent directly from a warehouse to the buyer." The "warehouse" is usually an online wholesaler or other retailer.
The good thing about Dropshipping is that it takes little to no money getting stated, and later
My home computer, which is 3-4 years old, every year has a weird error between the months of November and May.
It stalls on boot with CPU Fan error. Wait 30-60 seconds, reboot, and it works. Today it started happening again.
I know that the cpu fan is powered on an auxiliary fan power point and not the labelled cpu fan point. It didn't seem to be a problem when I first built the computer (probably because it wasn't between Nov and May at the time)

I fully expected outlook 2016 to automatically pick up my office 365 group memberships.
But it doesn't.
It finds the ITSupport group in "search people". I subscribed even though I'm a member.
Still nothing in groups section under mailbox :-(
this is a disaster as I told the deputy head that outlook 2016 would solve all our groups problems. The main one being people want to stay in OWA where the groups are, and not use outlook 2013.

Owen Jones looks very young; but he has a lot of clever things to say; that make sense. I always did wonder how politicians and big business get away with so much. Here's some answers:
This talk is based on a book of the same name. Apparently he's on TV a lot, political debates and the like.
Jon Ronson, author of books like "the men who stare at goats" and "the psychopath test" talks about his new book "So you've been publicly shamed".
It's about the stories of the people who have been massively publicly shamed online.
Jon Ronson has a lot of stories... and a wonderful way of describing them and events that have occurred to him or people he met. Funnily enough I've never read his books but I like listening to him talk about stuff.
If you like that; definitely check

Hit on this through a friend and made £100 in a month. That was being cautious with it and only doing 1 bet at a time.
It's called Profit Accumulator, which is a sytem for doing "Matched betting". From what I can see, matched betting has been around for years, but not as simple as this.
It takes a while to get your head around how it works.

For the first time I've had to install debian from the DVDs. Usually I use the minimal ISO and update from the internet.
I need a machine to install FreeRadius on. Using debian on a hyper-V virtual machine on win 2008r2. It installed Really fast
So what's a mystery is after switching the sources from DVD to the internet ones in sources.list, only 3 mentions of radius can be found. Unlike the 63! in the wheezy repository site.

This is strange.
Set up 2 dhcp boxes on the guest wireless to replace proxies. Proxies no longer needed, only dhcp to hand out county addresses.
First one works fine. Its a debian base install with only isc-dhcp-server, dnstools, ntfs-3g, dhcpstatus & ssh. It's super quick on a dual core HP workstation!
the second one is a failover handing out the 2nd half of our allocated range. I was writing the documentation whilst I did that one. Sort of a record of how to set another up if so
