There is nothing you can do about the unsuccessful logins to your email address. My original email address has been in so many hacks and it’s always being brute forced by hackers outside the US.

You already have MFA, so the only other thing I can think of is to have an incredibly long random password on your account and make sure the “forgot my password” recovery flows don’t have any easy way to bypass. Things like another email address as a backup that’s less secure, being able to guess your personal details based on past hacks, easily guessable/researchable security questions (make these random or nonsensical if possible, or don’t put details from security questions in social media) could be used to gain access, even with MFA. And finally, secure your password manager in a similar manner.

It’s definitely not the latter. It’s a fancy antivirus known as an EDR - Endpoint Detection and Response. Purely security software for defending against cyber attacks

If it’s any consolation, this is the first issue of its kind in the multiple years we’ve been using CS. Still unacceptable, but historically the program has been stable and effective for us. Hopefully this reminds higher ups the importance of proper testing before releases

This occurred overnight around 5am UTC/1am EDT. CS checks in once an hour, so some machines escaped the bad update. If your machines were totally off overnight, consider yourself lucky

I’ve personally had better luck with the Litter Robot 4. We started with the 3 and had some issues with the bonnet getting “unseated”, among other things. The 4 has been more stable over the year we’ve had it. The base being narrower but taller lets us get away with an extra day of not emptying.

I’m not OP, but I recently rewrapped my cat trees and used a staple gun to tack it down. Close to the base, I wrapped the tail vertically a little upwards on the pole, stapled it to secure, then ran it down to the base and started winding over the tail. This causes some bumps in the snaked look, but isn’t too bad from a distance. Plenty of staples keep it in place up the pole in case the cats cut through it from sharpening.

I’ll be the naysayer and say you should not do this.

From an IT perspective, it’s entirely unnecessary. You are potentially tampering with company property by destroying user data and files, even your own. What you make and do on this computer belongs to the company, so deleting your user folder could violate contracts you signed in onboarding. Say you neglect to upload a file to a shared drive and your boss needs it after you leave the company. If IT already wiped the computer, that’s on them and not your fault. But if you proactively deleted these files and IT hadn’t gotten around to giving the laptop to the next person, that could be actionable even after your employment is over.

From a practical perspective, your company’s IT team should be wiping and reinstalling the OS in between users. Even on Windows and MacOS, this is standard practice and a non issue to anyone who has 30 minutes to spare during onboarding computer setup. If your company isn’t doing this, that isn’t your problem because again, this is company property. Don’t use personal stuff on the laptop if you’re concerned about the next person getting access to those files.

Excessively buckled boots are depicted with heelys (skate wheel embedded in the heel). The they/them refers to the fact that only enbies (nonbinary people) would wear them and thus have too much power

Hell yeah, I’ll be cool again when that gen grows up

Here in Texas, my grandpa used to participate in these when I was a kid. He would set up a tent in the main camping area and chill out with everyone else partaking. When the event happened they would go act it out, but otherwise it was one big camping day/weekend at a park.

Cam cam with the cancan song took me by surprise

Mine is already talking about this news in a negative light. Makes my life easier to bring in opentofu

This is a really great thing. My town doesn’t do ewaste programs and we had some UPS batteries to get rid of a few months ago. We ended up giving them to one of our parents in the city to take to their program

I assume it’s supposed to be menopause

Laptops that businesses used are pretty good value for the quality. My SO gets Latitude 5590s from eBay that are in near pristine condition and are workhorses for everything he does. They work great with Linux too.

The order of the comment headers is the other way - above the comment it goes with. If you scroll to the top, you can see it better there. The Microsoft person is Zied Aouina

Most formal cleaning companies will do a deep cleaning to form a clean baseline, or let you add on extras per session to address when you need. Usually it’s hourly based with a minimum time requirement. If you don’t need them to do something, it might work out to be cheaper if doing it would have put you over the minimum time.
If you find a self employed cleaning person, they are more likely to be more flexible and able to handle the odd tasks like tidying up or handling laundry. Maybe even help organize or do other routine tasks that you don’t have the bandwidth for.

Sorry, I don’t really have any for PC, we played Pico using remote coop

Pico Park made our group rage in the best way. It’s a cute and fun game

Actually a great idea, considering how expensive rims and wheels can be
