I see Raised by Wolves is back on HBO this week. Does anyone know when season 2 is going to be on Sky?

I saw an article a few years ago saying that Netflix's rise and ubiquity led to one of the biggest drops in p2p video sharing. You wonder if the fracturing of streaming services will lead to a rise p2p video sharing.

In addition to the stock safeguarding question, we always say to expect a data protection/security question. For a tech I wouldn't expect anything too in depth. Being able to demonstrate an understanding of what is personally identifiable information (AKA what shouldn't be shared without consent), and the basics of password security, and knowing to take any concerns to the Data/Data Protection Officer should be more than enough. One of the best interview tips I've heard (although I've not had a chance to put it into practice) is to tell stories (real stories, don't just make stuff up). We all know lots of interview questions are frames as "tell me about a time when ...", so go through and try to pair your experience with an interesting engaging story. Best of luck.

But the moon's always above us! (...I'll stop now)

How does observing the projection of a "moon" onto Earthdome disprove fact that we all live on a disk.

The point is that the govt (rightly or wrongly) is trying to move into a long term/post pandemic solution. I don't see a U turn on policy. Rather, the response would be that if illness related staff absence is effecting the school, then it's up to the school to decide on and enforce appropriate mitigations.

We've been looking at https://locker.co.uk/ for our Teams management (and putting student timetables in outlook). It can do end to end user management from your MIS.

This spits out tomorrows date for me. $RestartDate = [DateTime]::Today.AddDays(+1).ToString([font=inherit]"dd-MM-yyyy"[/font]) Is there any reason you don't just use the task scheduler?

I find that hard to believe, every time my parents talk about golf, it's about how bad they and their friends are. Anyway, back on topic. We finally got a new shipment of LFD's yesterday. So maybe the shortage is easing and testing will start to go up again.

Has someone famous done something silly again? I thought you had to isolate for 7 days after a positive test (unless it's gone down to 5 already).

As I understood it, the control line will "catch" the pigment particles (which are pulled across the test strip by the osmotic diffusion of sample). In which case you should be able to get the control line to appear with most liquids.

Started happening on my home PC (Win11 pro) yesterday. Hopefully the reg fix works for me too.

You say IT literacy isn't high on the list of requirements, yet primary teachers need to know every subject. But basic (and even some moderately advanced) IT is on the primary curriculum, so by that notion they do need to know basic IT, or at least be comfortable enough to follow along with the online resources.

I think you'd need to use a script of 3rd party utility to make sure the authentication happens before the drive is mapped. We've always used DMS's OneDrive Connect app, but for a free solution I'd probably just look at a way to automate IE running and either a gpupdate or map the drive by script as the last thing during logon (maybe from the start menu>startup folder).

Isn't the worry that the sort who haven't been vaccinated are the sort who would rather just go into work regardless and spread it around?

Hi all, I'm struggling to get an old Sage client updated. Does anyone know where I can get the installer for Version 22.1.10.394? Thanks!

It's the same thing they did with nurses last year.

If historic data was accessed was then I would expect there to be some sort of audit logs. But that wouldn't cover anyone watching live monitoring stations. For example, our reception have monitors showing the access controlled carpark gates so they can see who they're letting in. Any logging for that would, at best, show the viewer was connected between 6:30-22:00 every day. Also, going by some threads on here, be prepared for any FOI regarding specifics of CCTV (especially coverage) to be rejected on security grounds.

Or omicron peaks in a couple of days and drops off as quickly as it spiked, and everything's back within "acceptable limits" by Christmas. What! a guy can dream, right?

It has to be a week so we can complete our phased return and test all the students before they go home again.

What did they do for the first lockdown? I know our teachers eat headsets or something, but shouldn't they have some of this stuff already?

Do they work over network or is it just a straight cable run with converters on each end? (We've used the HDMI to Cat5/6 converters in the past, but they get flakey if you use terminated cables with patch leads)

It was mentioned in passing during our staff briefing this morning (between staff leavers and apparently it's going to snow next week), but I'm pretty sure no-one really took it in. TBH the idea is that the staff should be doing it all the time anyway for isolating students. - I've been trying to push the whole "build your in-school lessons using Office 365/ online resources and then it's no extra work" idea. Does anyone know what the official stance on LFDs over the holidays is? Our Testing Manager told everyone we didn't need keep up regular testing over the holidays (just test if you'd need to for going out like everyone else) and test before we come back. Then in the briefing this morning we were told to keep twice weekly testing as normal.

Just one more gen1 LFD left, then no more gagging! (because we've moved on to the newer ones) ANM here managed to get a walk-in booster with only a couple of hours waiting time.

If your PCs are USFF enough (we use the Asus mini PCs) then they can just be tucked behind the screen with maybe a bit of Velcro to keep them in place. Most of the time, they perch pretty well on the wall bracket.
