^ One of our heads of science was offered a sizable graveyard and de-consecrated church for £1. It was next door to their house, they knew the landowner and the cost of restoring the church (listed, not in the best condition) wasn't something the landowner wanted to deal with.

Stopped communicating? Or gave up waiting on BCC to get their backsides in gear? My money's on the latter. Interesting decision to libel someone when you've been squatting in their property for 13 years. Bet someone didn't get media trained.

When you're rolling out EAP-TLS to fix this (unticking MS-Chapv2 in the radius server conf may also give you a stopgap fix) make sure the device cert renewal window is longer than your summer hols.

We also push the "if you've been teaching Geoff for 3 years and you think that Geoff didn't write this, you're going to have a higher degree of accuracy than an AI tool" line. With an "unless it's an EPQ (or other independent project) and Geoff has picked his specialist subject of Pokemon" caveat.

What's the torque like? Enough to do the job, but not enough to strip the heads? Or......?

I refrain from commenting (and just note the employer isn't one I should ever consider). But the commentary usually isn't that "the wage for role X is low compared to private sector". Instead it tends to be "even for a school, that takes the mickey" or identical roles at schools 5 miles apart* are being offered at significantly different wages with the same intake demographics. *yes Lincolnshire, I'm looking at you.

https://admin.cloud.microsoft/#/users One of my team reported they couldn't switch user on the M365 admin portal(s) and the 3x3 menu in top left also didn't work for them (works fine in Outlook though). A short time later it's stopped loading for me and (using developer tools) we're getting a 404 when it tries to load headbundle.js from https://res.public.onecdn.static.microsoft/admincenter/admin-pkg/14.0/en/jsc/headbundle.js and the searchbar, option to switch tenant and the cloud shell buttons have also disappeared. Can anyone else replicate this? We're not using the new dashboard and we're seeing it in Chrome (current) and Edge (current stable). cheers Pete

We support both, though email lives on 365 for consistency. IME neither have particularly good documentation once you get into the weeds and need accurate info on specific niche things because how the thing works/is configured changes and the customer-facing documentation isn't updated at the same time. At one point I'd have said we'd lean more towards Workspace if we went 1-2-1, but given the price of hardware at the moment that's not going to happen for a while.

That's how I read the notification to us, with the number in brackets following the Bromcom instance / school name being the number of affected accounts identified. Schoolname (32) Otherschoolname (123) etc.... @Bromcom_Alastair is that the total number of affected accounts (you've checked all of the accounts on an instance and only those are affected) or the number you've confirmed so far?

Looking at the school <> number of affected people counts for our schools, they're very close to staff Bromcom user numbers (albeit with one that's quite out of whack).

I'm going to gloss over the "I'm sure Dave can sort you with a tax-deductable and younger-than-11-years-old refurb for a reasonable price" element of this post..... But if you've missed a few BIOS versions, what happens if you try an older update first?

We found user-defined flags were triplicated in teacher registers at one school, refreshing the system cache resolved it.

Would you mind logging into the Sage webclient and then going here: https://app.sage200.co.uk/Sage200SelfService/Workspaces/my-budgets-overview (or via the menu route Nominal Ledger > My Budgets Overview) and time how long it takes for "My budgets" to populate and the "Nominal Account Budgets" list. For mine (single budget, 202 nominal budgets beneath it), it takes 12-14 seconds to fully load from a refresh. It's noticably slower to load this term, both in-school and working offsite. For our finance manager and CFO (~100 top-level budgets) it times out and falls over both onsite and working offsite. 36 seconds to timeout on the web client. On the desktop it doesn't timeout (we got bored after waiting 5 minutes). It last definitely loaded reliably for them on 3rd August. All the Sage domains are exempted from HTTPS interception and filtering and I've double-checked to see if Sage snuck anything new on there and didn't tell anyone. cheers Pete

Guessing there weren't any comms to customers about this choice between security updates or functional backups?
