      @Dashrender They're also doing a live action of Mulon, but not with Ghangis Kahn as the villain.

      I've heard there is a live action version of Lilo and Stitch coming.

      Doctor Who already did that. Its called The Tsuranga Conundrum

      Rachel just showed up, she is moving back in today.

      Like for good or just over Thanksgiving break?

      Pretty much for good. We are expected to be "away" almost solidly until MangoCon, and then gone again right after MangoCon. So she is here probably at least till 2020, as we aren't here in 2019 much.

      Wow. Okay, send pictures. 😉

      @scottalanmiller No money, everybody is in debt, the person with the most debt starts the game. Instead of buying properties, you buy experiences and that is how you gain points. The person with the most points wins. Places like Chance and Community Chest allows you to interact with other players. The hashtag/pound sign, emoji, and something else are some of the tokens.

      I was told that there would be warm?

      Last reading was at 7:30. It was still below freezing at 7:30. Try updating your phone.

      What does this do that my normal desktop does not? Or is this for people not on Cinnamon who wish that they had chosen Cinnamon?

      If they wish that they had chosen cinnamon, then just install cinnamon.

      @scottalanmiller said in What Are You Doing Right Now:

      OMG, just had a long confusing conversation with a site about "where is our router." Apparently the AT&T tech was there trying to hook up service and install their router. Except, they didn't bring a router and no one shipped us one that we know of.

      Hours of follow up later... router was shipped long ago, to a different company. Oops.

      I don't order AT&T routers with fiber service. I specifically decline them.

      I didn't want to, but there was no cost savings to skipping it.

      No but you would have probably had more control over what's going on in your network.

      @scottalanmiller That sounds like AT&T to me. I'm currently sitting on (not literally) 3 or 4 routers that belongs to AT&T, but they have never sent correspondence asking for them back. We would kindly give them back if they would just give us some information.

      @JaredBusch - Well, it didn't work when I used the first 2 together. At least, with the syntax I had. Also, it would be nice to know how to do it. But, I would settle for getting the display name Jon Doe with a space in it using the 2 existing variables.

      $DisplayName="$GivenName $SurName" ?

      This would result in literally being given $GivenName $SurName whenever you ask for $DisplayName.

      What about creating a new variable by combining two existing variables? (For the display name)

      $displayName = join ($GivenName," ",$SurName)

      -EmailAddress $GivenName + "." + $Surname + "@email1.com" `

      Here, I think you're going to want to try something like:
      -join ($GivenName,".",$SurName,"@email1.com")

      You're going to need to do some concentanation on your usernames in order to get the period included in the spot you want. Take a look at my script. There is a place where it is concentanated for the first name and last name for the email address and last name + first initial for usernames.

    • RE: Is the Physical Thin Client Era Dead?

      @scottalanmiller said in Is the Physical Thin Client Era Dead?:

      @NerdyDad said in Is the Physical Thin Client Era Dead?:

      Maybe so, but I can only justify thin clients in environments that would call for security and limitation of the user. Something that even the rpi could do without much effort. Otherwise, there is really no need in thin-clients anymore.

      Is there any thin client that provides additional security over fat clients today? All thin clients of which I am aware offer so many additional things, and all fat clients can be locked down so thoroughly, that it seems like a wash (when the fat client is used in a thin client architecture.)

      Would you use any particular type of software for the fat client or would you lock down the OS (Linux or Windows) with something like Group Policy or Salt?

      @DustinB3403 Yes, the physical device that would take the place of a full stack computer, but only provides the user with a physical monitor, keyboard, mouse to a VM operating somewhere else.
