Buy him a weekend pass for VDub @ the Pub?
-
I've always been a Bridgestone chap - BT45 and then the 0XX series. Currently running the VFR on 023 GT... The dual compound has always worked well for me. I've ridden other people's bikes with Pilot series on them and I've been impressed by their grip in all kinds of conditions, but those same people have also expressed disappointment at the wear rate... The road is better than the sport by some margin for wear. If you like the Michelin it would be worth seeing if the pilot power is available for your wheel sizes as they might be better value. Depends what kind of riding you're doing though as the pilot road are better in the wet. (I had a long term loan of a friends Guzzi Daytona 1100 while he was out of the country and I shredded a Pilot Sport almost to the canvas in a weekend... But that bike was a bit special and packed 130hp and nearly 120nm torque) LeEdit - You should definitely change those. As soon as they are starting to get close the wear bars it's time but when you add in the screws, it absolutely time!

[1803, au] Windows Firewall - Domain network detected as Private
Oaktech replied to DJ-1701's topic in Windows 10
A*se... Tried any of these? https://www.itechtics.com/change-network-type-windows-10/#Ways_to_change_network_types_in_Windows_10 -
I vaguely remember having this issue with word 2010, some people it was fixed by turning off graphics acceleration in the app settings, some people by a reinstall of office, but what ultimately fixed it was upgrading to 2013... https://www.apeswithcomputers.com/article/turn-off-hardware-graphics-acceleration-in-office

[1803, au] Windows Firewall - Domain network detected as Private
Oaktech replied to DJ-1701's topic in Windows 10
add the domain dns suffix to the connection details. Network and sharing -> ethernet -> properties -> click IPv4 -> properties -> advanced -> DNS tab -> add the domain suffix in the 'dns suffix for this connection' box. See if it helps. -
I've tried this, and it doesn't mirror the writing which is what @newpersn is seeing.

Office 365 - Print all emails sent from one user to another between dates
Oaktech replied to tj2419's topic in Cloud Services
This only works, I believe if you enhanced audit and logging turned on - which is available from the secure score sheet... Admin centres, security and compliance, search and investigation, content search, new search, set your parameters, run the search - this might take a long time and generate a lot of results. I've just run it between me and my tech for the last 6 months and come back with 1800 results totalling 4Gb! It can take up to 24 hours for the report to be available, then you can download it - the download only works in Edge or IE. You can print the contents of the reports using the app and the key in the export pane. Quick, no, sorry! The doing it manually option only works if they haven't purged! -
Pupil Data Collection and GDPR
Oaktech replied to sarahstacey's topic in Data Protection & Information Handling
We just send blank forms with spaces for all the required information and leave it up to the office staff processing to determine whether information provided is new/updated. -

Opting out of local authority internet provision
Oaktech replied to torgo_uk's topic in Internet Related/Filtering/Firewall
Didn't even think about, just did it. The figures alone were enough to convince us. In our locality we could get gig symmetrical internet and a PaloAlto UTM on site for only about a grand more than we were paying for a 60mb FTTC with not-fit-for-purpose filtering from the RBC. Then you have the improved reliability, improved SLA, likely the improved speed, the additional control... The list just goes on and on. -
I had this on the BM's PC which an 3rd gen I7 with 16gb ram and an SSD, so the machine spec doesn't seem to make any difference... I've done the following to fix this on a number of different machines: Kill the user profiles on the machines and try again... Turn on superfetch: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/msoffice_excel-mso_winother/opening-excel-file-directly-is-very-slow/788b0991-ad84-40bd-b5c1-21b7fdc8d2bf Or the good old DDEEXEC issue: https://www.tenforums.com/microsoft-office-365/12963-excel-error-when-opening-documents-problem-sending-command.html

That's swish, but as everything that matters here is turned on via WOL about an hour before anyone gets here, mainly so nobody ever sees windows updates, it's an unnecessary complication in my environment... I just turn off fast start.
-
We had the same issue, even with the first solution set up. Only disabling fast-start brought everything back in line again!

They aren't rocket science to do - I used to do it. You just need to find out who the UK importer are and get one.

Always on VPN migration from DirectAccess/VPN

Following... We rely heavily on DirectAccess and I'm struggling to follow anything about AOVPN -
Currently my experience too. 4yr old Genuine Cisco ones have been replaced under warranty twice, FS.com generics in a Zyxel Switch, carrying on, carryin' on for the same amount of time.

Paxton Access and unbranded Hitag2 Cards, Do they Work?
Oaktech replied to cooper549's topic in Physical Security
I'd just get a pack of 5/10 of ebay and try them, if they don't work you've got them as cards to print and hand out as 'escorted only' IDs to visitors. -
[sims] Data Manager questioning Server Performance during intake!
Oaktech replied to kennysarmy's topic in MIS Systems
I would point at SQL-disk performance - It was always that way with CMIS. Server would be sat 10% CPU, 60-80% ram, but 100% disk with a massive queue. -
Yeah - went to do a consumables and headphones order yesterday and got the permanently closed banner on Google... CPC is going to have to do.

Fresh eyes mate, that's what we're here for.
