Without straying into "P" territory, disinformation isn't solely spread by nutters acting alone. Various factions and even states use it. $8/pop will be peanuts to such entities.
-
Whilst this business model seems legal (IANAL) surely profiting off the spread of disinformation is immoral? Plus disinformation has caused deaths.

Bullet Train (Rental most places) A bunch of criminals find themselves assigned various tasks on the eponymous train. Brad Pitt and the sort of cast you will recognise from other shows (plus a few cameos) punch, kick, stab, drug and shoot their way through a highly entertaining 2 hours. Lots of darkly comic fun, but very violent and very bloody. Well worth a look if that sounds your kinda film.

Because they haven't seen through the lie that we can all be that successful if we only work hard?

Backup GPO's and install new Windows ADMX templates
LeMarchand replied to Sonic007's topic in Windows Server 2016
1) Go to the main GPO screen, Ctrl + A to Select All, right click and backup to a location of your choice. 2) That's what I'd do; just add it into the central store. I'd wait for a cleverur person to answer that one though, as I have a nagging feeling there was some sort of gotcha with the new releases. -
The icons are really faint; if her monitor isn't great or properly adjusted they may just seem to have disappeared. The "3 dots" menu allows you to customise the view. The drop down at the end allows you to choose between "Classic" and "Simplified" ribbons.

How do you work out why you're receiving an email?

Some long-forgotten auto-forwarding rule in Exchange (if you use it)? -
Parking a car inside, let alone upstairs, in a terraced street would be an impressive feat!

Active directory tool for adding users
LeMarchand replied to steveo2000's topic in Enterprise Software
Hmmmm... Not likely to have time this week, but will try to create a fake user via Solarwinds when I do. Our home folders are \\SERVER\Students$\StudentName\Documents. You can select all newbies and map to \\SERVER\Students$\StudentName and Apply then append the \Documents. Doesn't help with the passwords in your case, though. -

I use Solarwinds here and set up the new intake this year with passwords and home folders. -
It may be an urban myth, but allegedly there was a local case where someone got done and assumed he'd been "grassed up" (no pun intended). He didn't seem to think that the wire leading from the street lamp outside leading to his house may have tipped the police off.

So much for November: http://www.edugeek.net/forums/tv-movies/230264-carnival-row-season-2-a.html

I was wondering why there had yet to be a trailer for the alleged been-and-gone Nov 4th date. Hoping the extended post-production period means that they have a proper conclusion.

Isn't that a "New Paradigm"* Dalek? Though IIRC there was a minion off to the left. There was probably some yellow wool left over! *AKA "Buy some more merchandise".

Put my meter readings in last night - one day I'll get "smart" ones - and decided to check usage against last year, which we had been doing well on. Almost had a heart attack when I saw usage had skyrocketed. Then I realised that I was looking at £s, not kWh.

Enola Holmes 2 (Netflix) Enola's detective agency seems unable to attract any customers and she is about to give up when a case involving a missing match factory worker comes her way. As the investigation continues, it seems as if her older brother's current case and her own may be entwined. If you enjoyed the first film in the series, you'll enjoy this one too. There's a mid-credits scene that sets things up for part 3 and you'll probably also end up searching to see how true to life the historical event portrayed at the end was.

Forgot my Halloween watchews (both on Disney+). Hocus Pocus 2 Never seen the original, and this distinctly average kiddie-friendly romp didn't make me want to seek it out. Both the ladies of the house (who wanted to watch it) fell asleep. Werewolf by Night A curious blend of (mainly) black and white "early horror" styling with some modern sensibilities, this was much more fun. Not a "must see", but if you have Disney...
-
Maybe you could both compromise? Saw this in someone's window in town. It's more space/partner/wallet friendly, but still not tiny.

Season 2 is ago. Hoping this will include "A Midsummer Night's Dream".

What is this "buy" thing you mention? It must be something that you can do when you have a budget .

Cheers. We've always paid extra for server licences, so probably not able to upgrade unless in place upgrades are allowed.

Finally got all functions migrated off our 2008R2 server over summer and turned the box off. Realised today that it was also being used as on site backup for our file server - don't worry, the off site backup also covers this! I was thinking it would be good to get this running again and was considering updating the OS to whatever it will take or at least reformatting and removing its ability to reach the internet. So a few questions: Would our existing licence on the server allow this? If not, would leaving it only able to connect internally and leaving 2008R2 on it be bad? (Could always FreeNAS it, but suspect it probably doesn't have good enough specs for a recent version) Data is priceless but, given that we have another backup solution in place, is it worth the electricity costs of an ancient server that is within 20m or so of its source, albeit on a different floor (but not an enclosed one)? The data being backed up is home folders and file shares, which we are trying to push to the cloud.
