Anyone heard of or used tptg as a supplier of laptops or anything?

How did you get on with OnShape? We've just started looking at it. Any pointers, costs? How's the account management now? Thank you Stuart

Anyone know if you can get a trolley which will move the TV from vertical to horizontal? I'd like one in art, and they might like to trace from it or use it interactively as a table.

Just looking at some new TVs. We have a bunch of promethean boards, so obviously ActivInspire software and what-have-you. I assume the licensing goes with the board, so I can't buy other branded boards and use Promethean's software with them? Stuart

If this is one where you can't remove the battery (like the G4 450 we have) then unplug it and press and hold the power button and mute button for 20 seconds, then plug it back in and try powering it up again.

I heard someone a couple of years ago say "I Googled them on SIMS", so they obviously know Google isn't the Internet but apparently it is a word meaning "to search"?

You certainly wouldn't want to get hit one more time by one of those!

Oh that's why I can't get it to work!! Grr......

I can't even get it working. I've got a couple of test accounts which I'm sure I've set correctly, but everyone can still message everyone.......

My USB -> Ethernet adapters are Lenovo, so you could be right. I got mine from Stone.

What makes you think they won't work? We have 130 Lenovo laptops and we built them all using USB3 -> Ethernet adapters.

seti.org isn't blocked and he's using that too. Just found it funny it was classified as "Occult". I've told him that is correct and I've been trying to get the moon landings classified under "Conspiracy theories".

Thank you, but I don't specifically need to get to that. Our science teacher just noticed the entire site was filtered out and I wondered if anyone else was getting it filtered?

Just digging up a slightly old thread as setileague.org is filtered here. It's classified as "Occult", so I searched on here and found this thread. Anyone else getting it blocked? SchoolsBroadband and Netsweeper.

The free cloud server I started (This thread) I have setup as a Minecraft server running the Season 7 download of HermitCraft. I've upgraded it to 1.17. If anyone is interested in having a look around it, or adding their own builds, then PM me your Minecraft name and I'll whitelist you and give you the IP. The only people on it ever will be me, people from EduGeek, and possibly my son. It doesn't load chunks fantastically fast if you're flying around, but it's good enough. Stuart

*bump* anyone please? Someone must have done this?

Have they said why?

Hi all, I have a Yubikey to test. Got it all working fine for my AD account, but the OWA and the email client on my phone wouldn't work, which made sense. I had a Google and found this; https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/Lync/en-US/f7e6b14f-e751-4083-a7e9-70ed031969ad/exchange-ecp-and-smart-cards?forum=Exch2016SD But do I want only Windows authentication, or is that going to break something else? Or is there another (correct) way to make my account work fully, and require a card. The Yubikey I have has NFC in so should work with my phone. Thank you Stuart

I used to work at Felixstowe and we had a point to point link between two sites. I believe there are two version you can get, we got the cheaper one which every now and then would drop off for a minute or two because we were near the docks and theirs had priority for comminucating with the ships. This is what we were always told anyway! @Net-Ctrl may be able to help here. They put that link in.

He has with one he particularly wanted, but he got it about six months ago and has only just had his 15th birthday!

Always annoys me that so often the free games are 18s!! My son, who has to buy games out of his own pocket money usually, can't get the free ones.

Is there a straight forward way to setup 2FA for staff but not students?

My backup server has a script which enables the NIC just before the scheduled backups start, and another to disable it at the end.
