They've been much better than the trailers suggested, better resolved storylines not over-complicating matters too much (not that I mind the complex arcs but Moffat doesn't finish them off very well). A couple of the ideas are slightly rehashed from other episodes but more than watchable.

FYI, tried this last night and it appears on Ubuntu 16.04 you need to upgrade Snap in order to get this to install otherwise you'll get a "snap not found" error sudo apt-get install snap sudo apt-get install snapd sudo apt-get install snapcraft Now trying to get the daemon to run correctly but at least the installer command went through

Does anyone use the O365 version of the suite on their images vs. Office 2016 from VLSC?

Wondering if anyone else is doing this right now - would be useful to have some input... We have some Surface 3 and Dell Venue 11 Pro devices that we're issuing to staff to use as a 1:1 device. We expect them to be used off-site as much as on-site so makes little sense to join them to the local domain that won't be contactable half the time. Instead we'll use the connect to School or Work feature to "join" the devices to Azure AD and use Office 365 account to log in. That's neat as it gives SSO to O365 services then any further management would be more in an MDM model. Microsoft keep bringing out new scenarios and naming conventions so I think I've got it down to these choices... machine stays in WORKGROUP but joins to Azure AD (as above) machine gets joined to AD domain only machine gets joined to AD domain AND Azure AD via Azure AD Connect If the first option is the route we want to go down I basically need to make a tweak to MDT to stop it auto joining the domain as part of the Task Sequence. Seems like editing unattend.xml is the preferred method but has anyone done it a quicker way? As an aside we need the domain join in a different TS for networked machines so wondering if to use two Deployment Shares or mess around with customsettings.ini and TS changes, any preferences \ feedback on either method?

You'd hope that with the money we're paying for "support" these suppliers should be doing the R&D work rather than us but good suggestion nonetheless -

Hit F12 on an affected machine then go to Security tab. You will see what certificate is triggering the error. Also what build of Chrome are you running? Seems v57 onwards are causing issues by some of the SSL changes that have been implemented. -
@Arthur perhaps one for you... Did I imagine it or did Microsoft announce that at some point they were changing Windows 7 to have Cumulative update Rollups like 10 etc. receive? I know we have the monthly rollups but still in theory need each one to get a machine that's further behind back up to speed (as I understand it anyway) Getting bored of random machines' WSUS breaking and would make life a lot easier to just pop on the most recent Cumulative update then get going again (the Convenience Rollup only gets to April 2016 and there's been a fair bit of change since then)

What Wi-Fi system are you using? -
Probably the most random request of the year in here, does anyone have Win98SE install media floating around? Need to reinstall an old bit of hardware as a retro gaming machine for a friend but only have Win98 original release, which won't install on faster CPUs
-
If it works as described it'll be a nice truly open alternative to the Chrome method of running Android apps on desktop OS
-
Urgh yeah I'll pass on that system then. BT product winning at the moment then...
-
I know they do this for students via Imagine Academy but is there something additional for production websites too?
-
Was expecting the UAP disc designs in a mesh product not those big ugly things, shame

At £250 for a 3-pack the BT version looks handy - BT Whole Home Wi-Fi | BT Shop

What's the thoughts on Google Wi-Fi? Was just about to do a new place with homeplug extenders but this looks interesting although expensive.

Personally I found ITIL rather useful and taken some of the concepts like Change Management with me wherever I've gone since. Makes you think about how you run your IT service and can pick and choose the bits that work in your environment. I've stayed away from any qualifications that are product-specific or need renewing every couple of years, seems like a money train for MS & co.

Wow someone has actually gone out and done it, best of both worlds for Office 365 users. Pricing doesn't look too clever though. That said if you pin the Microsoft apps via Chrome Policy and have SSO on your O365 and Google tenancies you could get a similar effect
-
Still waiting to hear back as well
-
About time too, don't worry MS I'll come up with some more ideas to improve your services soon, how about getting that Explorer \ placeholder \ OneDrive system sorted out in the next Win10 release

Office 365, which apps did you rollout to your staff and faculty?
gshaw replied to disk's topic in Cloud Services
All of it except Skype for Business initially as pre-Compliance Center there was no auditing of IM conversations. Now it'd be the whole lot, just need to go back and enable the S4B licenses at some point. -

Very interesting, finally a solution to bridging the desktop and cloud if this works as promised. Microsoft have had long enough to get something similar in place with OneDrive but still no joy, seems Google have stolen a march on them with this.
