  1. non-article really, of course pointing a camera at your neighbour's house/garden is a gdpr breach!
  2. I'll start before Win10 is EOL, but will wait for 11 to have matured, even though it's basically 10 with a reskin.
  3. My beer arrived this morning, but I'm now working until 6, so having pies ready at 5:40 will be a challenge!
  4. Only LG are making 48" currently, so you can get a 48" monitor, but they aren't cheap! https://www.overclockers.co.uk/gigabyte-aorus-48-fo48u-3840x2160-4k-120hz-1ms-freesync-hdr-hdmi-2.1-kvm-oled-gaming-monitor-mo-00p-gi.html?__cf_chl_jschl_tk__=pmd_1_xJloLSnLKG8A2hyGbmKJkEO8wSUw7gVmpaNf8Jixs-1634121786-0-gqNtZGzNAqWjcnBszQl9
  5. Pies have just arrived, hopefully the rest arrives before tomorrow!
  6. Hi, are these still available? I sent a pm a while back but no response.
  7. Just logged in to my twitch, it made me change my password straight away.
  8. Someone tried to log in to my account earlier, thank goodness for mfa!
  9. My understanding is that the range flag specifies all ports between the given port numbers.
  10. They are probably chunks of system files. Looking at the numbers you previously posted, your chunk store size matches up with what I'd expect it to be. if you have 1.9Tb of savings with 50% deduplication, you'd expect around a 1.9tb chunk store.
  11. Deduplication will split files into chunks, it doesn't just work on the file as a whole. Also, saying something is like compression, isn't saying it is compression. From https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/storage/data-deduplication/understand#how-does-dedup-work (an interesting read into the processes behind the system)
  12. So does treesize, which they're already using.
  13. You done this? https://kb.smoothwall.com/hc/en-us/articles/4407518085394
  14. Dedupe is not a part of VSS. dedupe is short for deduplication, and is essentially a compression method. It is very common to use on storage servers, but if you have a lot of files that are already compressed, like videos and photos, then you can end up using more space. Treesize doesn't understand dedupe, which is why you get bad readings. The size on disk will give you how much space is used on the disk, whereas using the regular size and temporarily excluding the dedup will give you the actual data size. Just seen your edit, yes, you would need an extra 1.92tb on that drive to store everything without deduplication.
  15. It sounds like you have file deduplication enabled?
  16. Did you set the "exclude simple hostnames" for both the http and https proxy?
  17. Thanks, blocked! *EDIT* Fortigate has already classed it as phishing.
  18. I have 2 27" 1440p monitors at work, and a 27" 1440p monitor and a 24" 1080p monitor at home. The extra screen real estate is a godsend!
  19. Our core switches are Aruba and they've been rock solid.
  20. The domain registrar's abuse contact is [email protected]
  21. At a previous school that used SIMS, we was looking at writing a script to disable access to SIMS until the update had completed, because several staff members would try to open SIMS mid update and break their install. Unfortunately I left before the thing was written.
  22. If you launch the windows installer again, is it picking up the partitions and/or the windows install?
  23. Yeah, you need to run quick assist as admin in order to get UAC prompts. In this situation I'd be using the runas command to bypass the UAC prompt.
  24. Didn't Smoothwall move their support forums away years ago? They can still be found in the firewall and filtering forum.
  25. Registered, hopefully the beer turns up this time!
