    YouTube Recap

    Half of these in the screenshot are music None of these channels are finance related... And my music one!
  4. Have you been told why it doesn't?
  5. Anyone getting reports of it being broke this morning?
  6. Do they need to be video? if not plenty of Dictaphones out there that record to MP3 if its purely an audio issue, then webcams are likely to be worse that an external mic for the video camera (which are quite cheap). Also check that its recording settings are sensible We just have half decent camcorders and seems to be fine
  7. Thank you all, Have found the HDMI Setting and have the teacher seeing how it works for them now Still have touch dropping out if anyone has further ideas on that? FW: 202510131548 Model: TE7512MIS-B4AG SW: V1.36.2

    Stargate

    'Fun?' Fact, The stargate theme actually has lyrics
  9. https://www.amazon.co.uk/tcl-43pf650k-43-inch-4k-ultra-hd-hdr-tv-smart-led-fire-tv-dolby-vision-dolby-atmos-dts-hdr-10-alexa-built-in-airplay2-miracast/dp/B0D81MT2ZN/ Another Option, i think id class TCL as a lower end but proper company now adays £200 They do a 65" for £350 too
  10. 13th Gen and HDMI For the IWB Where abouts is the setting for this?
  11. I am talking with our suppliers about it, they are slow but somewhat helpful. I was hoping someone here would go "oh yeh there's this stupid setting somewhere" Dell 7010 MFF (the new 7010 not the old one) I Have updated sound/graphics, but not sure about USB, They were bundled weirdly
  12. Hitting my head against the wall with this one and i am not sure weather the issue lies with our setup or the boards. Have 2 new 75" Iiyama IWBs The computers for both the boards seem to occasionally stop duplicating, seems to happen a lot with PowerPoint, but will happen outside of powerpoint too and needs to be reduplicated. Sound quality is poor (Tinny) 1 Board seems to have a delay when the sound from (whatever) starts to play, in the sense you may miss the first word in a sentence, this has not been reported on the other board, but they do less stuff with sound so may not have noticed it. Sometimes when duplicating the screen, touch will randomly stop working or duplication will and the relevant USB/HDMI needs to be unplugged and plugged back in for it to work, shows as an "unknown device" in device manager What i have tried/Info: Its a new enough computer (I5 16GB, 256GB) Updated Graphics Drivers Allowed all the USB Devices in our Device List Up to date Win 11 Enterprise New Cables Cables directly from PC Into Board, bypassing what we have in the wall (which should be new anyway) Firmware/Andriod up to date on the IWB Lowering Refresh rate on monitor and IWB Unplugged everything apart from IWB, M&K usb wise from the computer to rule out USB Bandwidth issues Issue is regular enough to be disruptive, but not enough for me to sit in a classroom to watch it, or try a different device like a laptop HDMI/USB Lengths are reasonable, room layout doesn't give much freedom to move the PC to get it on super short cables PC Model: Dell 7010 MFF (the new 7010 not the old one) Pretty sure its not user error
  13. I Think Having a secure paper backup of all student contact details & some paper registers should solve 95% of the short term "we need to keep the school open" issues resulting from a total loss of IT infrastructure to a site (and it seems most MIS' go down enough to be able to war game it in a low stakes scenario). and is a rounding error in cost to implement, say 20 mins of time and £5 in printing a term. Teachers are supposed to be trained professionals so should be able to cope with not having IT Access.

    Its a continuation as well rather than a reboot/remake Am very excited
  15. If they want you to bring your own in, there's always the option of a nice wood stove... or campfire.

    If anyone wants a laugh the megapost on /r/cloudflare has alot of people to laugh at
  17. Whoops yup, my bad, remote ps doesn't work here so i forgot that bit i need to not PS when i am hungry i'd have to rewrite it to do that, but it should output in the terminal nicely if PS remoting is turned on in your site
  18. $Computers = Get-ADComputer -SearchBase "OU=School,DC=domain,DC=uk" -filter * | select -ExpandProperty Name $User = "Test" foreach ($Computer in $Computers){ Invoke-Command -ComputerName $Computer -ScriptBlock { if (Get-LocalUser $User -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue){ Write-host $env:COMPUTERNAME "Has account" (get-localuser $User) }else { write-host $env:COMPUTERNAME "Does not have account" } } } If you have PS Remoting Turned on this should be able to do it based on OU Adjust line 2 to your account and the search base to the OU You want to scan Edit: A note for others "get-localuser" has a username pass through as one of its arguments, so if you know exactly what the username is you can pass it through to the command, and not have to faff about messing with the output. "get account x vs get all accounts and filter by x"
  19. You really really want to go 16GB Ram and 256SSD (or even 512 if you use profiles) we have some modern gen I5/8GB And they struggle i also think Not usb-c only is a battle not worth fighting, if you can you can but if not don't worry. That being said most Dell Laptops seem to be able to do both. I Believe EICT's mark up is somewhere around 10-15% which may be why
  20. they have woken up
  21. Would Datadog Cover all you need? Use them for personal stuff and pretty decent product once you get used to it. Can do single pain of glass stuff too. Side note: Got a free shirt from them Many Many years ago (6-8) and despite almost weekly wear, the printing on it is still fine
  22. If you remove all printers and try adding them manually and see how long it takes? We haven't used Konica in a few years, but I do vaguely remember having to update a driver for speed reasons. Also, with it primarily being laptops, do you have "wait for network at login" turned on? From a practical point, we always have issues with printers just not deploying, do I built a bit of software that runs after the user has logged in which adds the printer. It basically runs the same windows thing scripting it would, but is just cleaner and can be silent.
  23. Whilst its expensive, I still think its pretty good value. But then I Can be very squirrely with what games i play, so being able to play whatever tickles my brain (or use game streaming to try something) is well worth it for me. Also games like OW2, I am enjoying my time but i am glad its on gamepass as i would not have been happy spending retail on it
