Sorry I missed this earlier, but how are they duplicates if they don't have the same members? Same positions for different locations?

learning

Its called NPU, and everybody thinks (not the end user of-course) that it is half baked if not total gimmick.

Deep learning is shallower and more hyped than Italian television

I can't remember where is nabbed it from, but I use the following:

Function Mailer { $emailTo = "" $emailFrom = "" $subject="It's broken, damn it" $smtpserver="" $smtp=new-object System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient($smtpServer) $Message = @" Insert a useful/meaningful message here. "@ } Mailer

Last line calls the function (duh for you, but a visitor here might not know).

But hopefully adding thousands in a new office.

I would think this would happen due to restructuring, in anticipation of the new HQ. Have they announced where it will be?

I've not seen it announced yet. Seems like it would be big news when they do.

It has not been announced. A narrowed down list was announced in January I believe.

In Firefox, would adjusting one of these help with the timeout issue on SodiumSuite?

I just wanted to chime in and say sorry you have to use VNC.

Well,.. I don't have to use VNC. But VNC is native to the rPi distro installed. I could install something like x2goserver, but even that has given me some trouble.

I’d just use X11 forwarding.

I believe this is the first time I have heard of x11 forwarding - so while I google it,.. I have no ideas about it.

I assume you have been working a lot with Windows for this not to happen 😉

@gjacobse said in LINux: Comm port address changes:

As part of my use of *nix, I use it to access / control / program a few different radios. They use the FTDI chipset for serial communications. Generally I have no trouble, but every once in a while it seriously gripes my mood.

dmesg | grep tty

This will tell you the devices and the port to use. It's in my list of useful commands as I don't always need it, and I just haven't committed it to memory yet. But I have it -

So this week I have two devices connected, and I went in and found the one I needed to use with the radio I wanted to program.

TTY0 was connected to a radio that was off
TTY1 was connected to the radio I was working with.

Had some programming issues, and updated the software to the latest release using a different REPO, when I went back to program the radio - fails - repeatedly.

Reboots, updates, upgrades, re-installs later, I run dmesg | grep tty again and find that the port assignment has changed.

This is one of the frustrating things about *nix I seem to have, in that things don't stay where they where and where I expect them to be the next time I go to use them.

Is this normal for it to change, even though neither of the USB devices were not removed?

@scottalanmiller

Especially plugable devices (e.g. USB) tend to change names - if you plug them into other ports for example. But your example doesn't look like a USB serial adapter, they would most probably have a name like ttyusbN.

But like SAM said above, this is not only happening with plugable devices. Most modern distros will create udev rules whenever they detect new hardware (except for a few cases like USB devices). That's why you will (should) see a reproducable mapping every time the system starts.

Anyway. You could get more stable results using a udev custom rule for your tty problem.

@dbeato said in Flushing GPOs:

You need to setup the settings to Delete or changed to not configured, wait until it applies and then delete the GPOs after confirming they are not applied any longer.

Get-Content c:\temp\gpos.txt | foreach { Get-GPO -Name "$_" | Remove-GPO }

http://jeffwouters.nl/index.php/2013/08/remove-group-policy-objects-through-powershell/

I bet you could do something like this to set all GPOs to "on delete remove from client" too

This assumes a txt file with all GPO names. You could also just use Get-GPO

@jaredbusch

Installing maybe... But it's need to run the software

I saw that all the time with crappy proprietary video surveillance software. You had to have admin rights to run it. Ridiculous!

Is there any surveillance software that isn't crappy? Ever one of them I have seen is just junk.

As far as this thread, I'm in the same boat... Software written back in the early 90's that is STILL the leading software in the veterinary industry requires local admin to run it.

Usually this is just a matter of needing admin access to a few folders and files. Not the entire system.

That's what I said.

Were you able to test and get any results?

@gjacobse said in Ubuntu 17.10: lock with keyboard:

seemed to have worked... Though I would like to say I have tried that and it did not work. However the period of time since that happened has been long enough, I don't remember.

Yikes, glad it is working though.

Also Outlook for Android.

It's hard to beat a Chromebook/Chromebox

Two domains shouldn't be an issue. If both domains are added to o365, you can powershell the addition of aliases to the users mailboxes. o365 can accept email to either domain.

YEs it can.

Thanks - I re-installed webroot and was able to update.
