I reckon this. Probably not best practice, but the UPS software would gracefully shut the servers down, so risk of long term harm is minimal. On the basis it's quite a lot of hassle for me and the chances are it would be wasted effort and I'd had no warning, I'd let them take the consequences - and probably take it as an excuse for a quiet morning. I'd probably let the software take care of the re-booting too. Views might be influenced by the fact that I'm on holiday [emoji41]

Do you mean the users' individual OneDrive or the Files on Demand organisation folder? If it's just the individuals' accounts, then yes, we have it working and it works on any domain client they sign in to. If it's the organisation's Files on Demand folder, then no; once data has been synchronised from SharePoint on that computer, it stays synchronised and the user doesn't need to sign in, but it's not mapped.

Online file sharing between schools
jmak replied to Quatermass's topic in Data Protection & Information Handling
I'd restrict it to particular folders - we have a "Curriculum" library/team/folder which doesn't (shouldn't) have any personal data on it. I would allow sharing from the, but not from the "Staff" area. I'd say it's better than email, as you could restrict sharing in the future or set the links to expire. -

Is there a "must have" feature in this release? As 1809 will be supported for beyond 19H1. I don't intend to bother with spring releases in the future.

With Files on Demand it'll keep synching until the disk (or quota) is full, then it deletes the local copy of the least recently used file. Therefore it should never actually run out of space. We haven't had a machine run out of space yet, so I can't say how well it performs in production...

Has anyone managed casting to a Smart interactive TV?
jmak replied to TwistedHelixis's topic in AV and Multimedia Related
I don't have the newer smart IWBs, but I have made Google Cast for education work. This allows you to cast from Chrome (including whole desktop) on a Windows PC to a Windows PC that has the extension installed. I don't think it works from Android tablets unfortunately. -
Good news - for when I next re-image...

iPads in supervised mode? Or perhaps more usefully, Android tablets in kiosk mode (cheaper and don't need any MDM beyond GSuite admin device controls). AFAIK there's still no option for MDM or bulk purchasing books. If you're locking the Kindles to the wall you should be able to control what books are available in the archive - or if you don't enter WiFi credentials students wouldn't be able to download books other than the ones you store locally to the device. I think students would be able to connect them to their own hotspot and add their own payment details to buy additional books, or possibly change then to a different Amazon account, but if they're in a public area, I'm not convinced that's very likely. friends on how keen your students are on spending their own money just to be a pain...

I reckon there are enough points available to make teams and drivers care - it could be championship deciding. However the point is just to try and keep the TV audience watching until the end of the race, hence maximise ad revenue... The calculation will be very complicated because the engines essentially don't last long enough - Mercedes definitely took engine and gearbox penalties last year. So will they go for a big lap for one extra point, but risk having to take an extra engine.... Interesting, but a bit contrived IMO

I'll rephrase it for him: Taking vicarious pleasure in watching the exuberance of youth and the joy of being childish without any need to care about anything except having fun right now, for example....

Or ask another nearby school if they'll store one of your tapes and swap each week. But, yeah, don't take it to your house.

Do they need a Smarttech account each to do that and do they have to sign in every time they restart the computer or application?

Want..... But £10! What happens to the other £9.50?

It's supposed to be automatic. In my experience, it sometimes is and sometimes isn't.... I'm sure there's a solution, but I've read a lot people complaining about the same thing.

You definitely won't have permission to host it on your website - even if you bought copyright (which would be on a per song basis), it would need to be in a secure area as you wouldn't get permission to make it available publicly. Suggestion 1) Push back to the LEA - it's their event Suggestion 2) YouTube as per @3s-gtech Suggestion 3) Set up a Spotify playlist (for home access only!) Final suggestion: get your body armour out, as whatever you do, you are going to be public enemy number 1 and you're just bring a blocker again....
