Did not know that.

Bah! Wales were rubbish for fifty minutes, then they were decimated physically for ten, and then they did what the English never seem to do: they changed their game plan. Losing at the scrum? Losing at the line out? Then bloomin' well avoid them and go for a different approach. We English seem to have a game plan from kick off and doggedly stick to it come what may. Frustratingly, these English game plans often seem to include "continue to push boundaries at the breakdown even when it's clear that the ref is having none of it". The English forwards are like toddlers in a game of hide and seek, thinking that if they can't see the ref then the ref can't see them so I'll just get this hand in here... Fair play to the Welsh to come back from a ten point deficit, with all those injuries, in the enemy's home ground, and win like that. Stuff of legends. If we've learnt anything, though, it's that the Welsh starting line up should be replaced by the bench you bring on for injuries. Clearly they're the better players

If money is tight then 120GB SSDs will make a world of difference, and then you can pull them out again when you replace the machines and re-use the upgrade elsewhere There's nowt wront with the Core2 era CPUs, the only problem is how old they are, and at what point you decide you're living on borrow time with the kit.

You need to click More options... at the bottom of the Rules window to allow you to add two conditions:

I wondered why Sky Map was all sorts of funky. Cannot get it to face some directions at all. Grr! 5 years I've had that app on phones, and it's only as I start to get into astronomy and going out with a telescope that I get a phone that breaks it. This is stock CM12S, not rooted, CyanogenOS version 12.1-YO4PAS1N0. All sorts of jittery in Sky Map and won't face South at all.

The Romanians had a good run at it, the scoreline was a little unfair in the end. It took them losing a man before the French could win. The smaller nations are as close as they've ever been this time out, just by doing simple things will. When the French get the wind in their sails, though, they look dangerous. Could be a contender.

I don't have figures for actual sheets printed, only how many impressions, as my figures are from the printers - so duplex would count twice there, I'm afraid. If you look, my total figure of 708694 is just the mono + colour count. Looks like we have a higher proportion of colour than others, but our volume isn't unreasonable. Good to know.

Oh the temptation to troll @Joanne...

+1 that. We wallmounted a cheap 42" 1080p LG TV in our meetings room. Damn sight tidier with the cabling, looks posher, easier to see (don't need to close the blinds), and cost probably a third of what mounting a decent projector would have done. Buy a wireless keyboard & touchpad (£33 from Amazon) and you can plug a laptop in by the TV then control it from wherever you're sat. Works a treat

I thought Scotland played well; it wasn't just a case of Japan being tired, the Scots were genuinely stringing together some good play. It's heartening to see after so long, they've always had good players, they've always just struggled with playing as a team. No bonus point for Australia either, what a shame

You're looking very feminine there, @DaveP. I like the hair colour. This is my end user face (and assuming I've had a shave, which isn't likely, but there's no beard options):

Some further updates from my testing... 1) The *.*enc* entry in the File Group just triggered a false positive for a user who opened a PowerPoint, and when Windows tried to create the Recent Document link, it picked up %appdata%\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\4. Ageing Population and Dependency ratio.lnk - the 4. fooled it into thinking the extension was Ageing Population and Dependency ratio.lnk, daft as that is. Computers! 2) The PowerShell scripts aren't firing because of the ExecutionPolicy - if I set the following arguments in the Command tab -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -command &{C:\Disconnect-SMBShares.ps1 -username '[source Io Owner]'} then it fires fine and works a charm I'm going to leave it just firing emails for now, not triggering the script, so I can check for more false positives, but all in all it's a great system - cheers @halbaradkenafin

Further to the Software Restriction Policies, once you've blocked %appdata% you need to unblock %AppData%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\StartMenu if you want Start Menu pinned items to still work. Otherwise it blocks them completely - to the point you can open a shortcut from the Start Menu fine, then right-click>Pin, and it'll then immediately stop working. EDIT: %AppData%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\TaskBar for your taskbar as well. I hadn't set that because we don't pin anything there for users (didn't want to have to explain the difference between open programs and shortcuts when we switched from XP), until I tried to open something from my taskbar and realised no-one else has them, but I have 8.

So if you just add the folder path - e.g. %appdata& - it automatically disallows all the executable filetypes listed in the Designated File Types?

Bloomin' forum... it's the same old problem of double clicking to change the size, then everything greying out and having to refresh the page, and when you do it looks like it's working and it'll show the image being posted, but secretly it's not actually there... I wish I could just work out the pattern of why it breaks, because it isn't consistent. Anyway. Yes. That was the picture. Cheers

Oh my word so much stupid in one page, and I don't even think it's a satire site. I especially like the diagram that's just low resolution enough that you can't make out any of the labelling: [ATTACH=CONFIG]32241[/ATTACH] I just, I mean, but, science!

NRS are pretty good, solid enough bits of kit and the software was more fully featured in the back end than Cunninghams or Gladstones (this was 2013 - I haven't seen either of those systems since then). Integrates well with FacilityCMIS & WisePay for us, and our VLE provider have a Moodle block that displays balance & transactions there as well. Client install is a bit of a pain (hooks into the local profile -_-;; ) but we've never had any major issues with it, and the tills are good.

Watch the Japanese try from the lineout at about 69 minutes as well - absolutely beautiful set piece.

Switches are switches, and communicate via standards - you can mix and match to your heart's content. Sticking with a single manufacturer just makes life easier with admin of them. The HP Comware switches are better value for money; to be honest, if you're not that big you can probably get away with something like an A5120, which is <£1500 for a 48 port. 24 port is half that. Depends on your network, though!

That solitary green patch in the East Midlands, one of the only inland green patches? I'm about five minutes drive from the edge of that patch

That was a hell of a match by the Japanese, the last ten minutes were utterly enthralling. It's quite depressing that I was left wishing the English played more like that - with discipline, courage and heart. Absolutely incredible stuff when that last try went over. I almost though the Pumas were about to do the same to the All Blacks as well. Loving this World Cup already, some real unexpected competition. The Tier 2 and 3 nations aren't just rolling over and showing their tummies any more. Anyone else checking their ancestry to see if they've any Welsh heritage and might get called up? Half of Wales is out with rugby injuries at the moment, it seems.

I don't know how or why it took me so long to find these, but they are incredible. http://www.nowmicro.com/recast/right-click-tools/ Using some PowerShell voodoo, these extend SCCM so you can manage client actions centrally. For example: right click on a Device Collection and Clear Client Cache. Right click on a deployment and Rerun Deployment - and then it asks you whether you want to run it on successful, in progress or failed clients. And loads more! And all free! I've had SCCM for 4 years and hadn't seen this, so I thought I'd point them out here for others, as I know there's a fair chunk of other people who roll with config manager as well. Which means this is the point where you all tell me oh my god I can't believe you didn't have these already, we've had them since about 30 seconds after setting up SCCM, you're so stoopid...

What have you got set up in Networking > Routing > Subnets? Do you have an entry for your internal network pointing to your core router?

Congratulations on another successful lap around the Sun. So close to a personal best! It's not your fault, though, it was that stupid leap second in June. I'm sure you'd have done it otherwise.
