  1. Bombshell #1 Last Man on Earth has been cancelled The Last Man on Earth Cancelled at FOX | Collider (Even bigger) bombshell #2: Brooklyn 99 cancelled. Yes you heard right. 99 cancelled! Cancelled!??! https://edition.cnn.com/2018/05/10/entertainment/brooklyn-nine-nine-canceled/index.html
  2. https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT201275
  3. Personally I would lean toward something like: Using Hyper-V: unless you really, *really* want those extra VMWare feaures you will save a ton of cash that can be spent elsewhere. No SAN x2 servers specced to cope with your entire VM count with replication between them. Veeam to backup.
  4. If starting from scratch then yeah avoid .local but to be honest we have a .local and it hasn't caused us any issues, the Apple stuff isn't an issue these days.
  5. Binge watched the first two seasons of The Good Place on Netflix. Very, very good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RfBgT5djaQw
  6. Just to expand that out a bit Seems pretty clear to me that putting up monitors with plain view of live streams is against the CCTV code of practice.
  7. Sure, but that applies to any of us, even with brand spanking new hardware you could be vulnerable to an unknown threat. You can't base purchase decision on this else you would never buy anything.
  8. Got to agree with above, no need to replace that spec, you will be fine with win 10. Again, an SSD upgrade would be a great investment. Personally I think 120gb is a good balance of price and space. And I wouldn’t be that concerned about RAM upgrade, I mean more is always nice but if you are strapped for cash I think that the SSD is your priority.
  9. ...How?
  10. We moved from Schoolcomms to PS Engage In our opinion its offered a lot more for significantly less cost and have been very happy with it.
  11. Very specific, love to know your reasoning.
  12. 1) Sounds like bunkem to me. Reading clocks is still part of the primary curriculum and all our school clocks are analogue and the kids seem to cope. 2) Why the ire? I fail to understand why reading that teenagers struggle with clocks prompts people to run to a keyboard to bash out and expletive strewn, doom laded post about how the world is going to Hell in a handcart and we'll soon be fighting each other for resources in a Max Max style post Apocalypse dystopia. I mean, its just clocks
  13. In our house the topics are picked by the WiFi don’t always agree though...
  14. Are you siri-ous?
  15. Agreed, moove it to the puny thread
  16. Close thread; the suggestions have been made and the advice given but lack of listening/acceptance means we are locked in a spiral and nothing useful will occur from this point.
  17. Sheesh I am not sure about that link... Completed. Thanks for the demo
  18. Short off arranging a meet up so we can role play both scenarios I am not sure how much clearer I can make it.
  19. Ok here's a thought experiment to walk you through it. Scenario 1 Member of staff responsible for FOI requests gets a FOI request asking for responses to be submitted at https://www.anunknownwebsite.com "Hey," they think "I'm not supposed to click unknown links due to our IT AUP, so this can be rejected due to safety concerns as confirmed by that recent ICO appeal ruling" Scenario 2 Member of staff responsible for FOI requests gets a FOI request asking for responses to be submitted at https://docs.google.com/someFOIform "Hey," they think "that's a Google Docs URL so its a reasonable assumption that its safe so I will collect the data and submit our responses as per our responsibilities via the FOIA"
  20. Then I suggest you are expending your effort in the wrong direction. All that effort has been to produce and defend a system that resulted in an invalid request for data. It would have been more productive to listen to what people have been telling you, produce a valid request and expend your efforts in analysing the data. It suggests the finer point of the collection mechanism is more important the point behind the collection in the first place. I fear that you are now heading off in exactly the same direction that will result in the same destination. People are trying to help you here
  21. PDF forms, for reasons outlined above, will mean we are going round in a circle and doesn't seem particularly productive. Anyone engaging in a large scale FOI request needs to be prepared to put in a bit of the legwork. Anyone who genuinely cares about the issue they are investigating would be prepared to put in the legwork.
  22. I have to completely agree with @elsiegee40 - a member of my family is in this position, the legal title does not match the gender that they identify with and assumptions cannot be made on title or appearance.
  23. Agreed. The ruling is clear and, as far as I know, there is no recourse to challenge the ruling. Endless debate is fruitless. How about we discuss and more constructive path to getting to a point where we are actually addressing the core point behind the FOI request?
  24. Supernatural S13 starts tomorrow night! *squeal*
  25. But then you have to think of the average user. Yes we might know ways to find out if a site is legit but would (and no offence intended here) the average school secretary receiving an email with a link know how to check this?
