My name is my name

RecursionIsRecursion

Nobody gets me

RecursionIsRecursion

I'm sure they sent him the questions ahead of time!

He means to rotate your phone so you’re taking a “wide” picture of a “wide” monitor so we can actually see everything

OK, that didn't work, but maybe we're getting somewhere.

On my local computer, when I run "nslookup facebook.com", I get a result from 1.1.1.1, my preferred DNS server.

Once I connect to Tailscale, running the same command yields:

Disabling MagicDNS doesn't actually change that, though...

Let me know if you find a good conversion tool - I found a few free ones but they had limitations like not respecting folders and instead dumping everything into the inbox. I didn’t try any paid ones because I ended up using BitTitan to do the migration from the “live” account.

We ended up on both platforms pretty much because of “shadow IT” for a small group that ran fairly independently. Right now we use M365 for everything (email, Office, SharePoint for file sharing) and have a bunch of security things (like you can only log on to your email on corporate devices, etc) so the decision was made to move the ~20 active users on GW over to M365 with the rest of the users, and apply the same security measures. They don’t really need historical email but it’s a nice-to-have, so I’m moving it over in the background while they’ve started to use their M365 accounts. No budget for any additional tools for this one.

We’re leaving the other users up but in a suspended state for a while for legal compliance reasons, although we’ll eventually do a full backup and stop paying.

RecursionIsRecursion

Manual is how I’m doing it - it’s just not a big enough project to pay for an external service. Back up the users, restore elsewhere. I just have to back up ALL the users, I guess.

RecursionIsRecursion

I’ve used it before for tenant-to-tenant migrations - I’m just amazed that there’s a full-fledged service that limits its choices to “one, two, or infinity”

RecursionIsRecursion

Yes it was technically there, but only if you knew to click it!

Around 2012 there was some kind of effort to update degree requirements Rutgers-wide, I don’t know much about that effort. The degree navigator tool would display your degree requirements based on your graduation year, and anyone who already declared their major didn’t need to switch to the new requirements.

However, if you switched or added majors as a junior or something, you’d be on the new requirement track, but because you still planned on graduating at the same time, it would show the old track. So when you went to apply to graduate, you’d get told you weren’t eligible and actually needed some new classes that you’d never seen listed before.

Happened to two friends of mine, they needed to push back their start dates at jobs to finish summer classes in order to have the degree.

I have a recursion joke, but it’s a recursion joke

RecursionIsRecursion

Thank you!!

RecursionIsRecursion

Understood - thank you!!

Looks like this was it! With EXPO disabled, it's running at 4800 MT/s, and appears to be solid. I'll leave it at this for now and see if I can tweak it up to 6000, which is where my older RAM was by default and was solid for years. Thank you!

To be clear I removed the 2x16 and put in the 2x32, so it’s only on 2 sticks, not 4 - does that change anything?

RecursionIsRecursion

I can get into the BIOS, to be clear. Can you help me figure out what RAM is compatible with this motherboard? Do the websites usually list out SKUs or just timing information?

RecursionIsRecursion

I do actually need the 64GB, but 6400 vs 6000 doesn’t matter so much to me. Is 6400 incompatible?

RecursionIsRecursion

Exactly what *WE were referring to

By “functionally blocked”, I mean that scraping the entire site is not possible because of limitations listed here: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Robot_policy

Using wget will work as long as you follow the rules they list above.

However, limiting you to 25Mbps means that trying to scrape the entire 90TB at that rate would take almost a year (>333 days).

RecursionIsRecursion

If you want to download the images from Wikipedia Commons, you can do so via this link. The total size is 90TB. Previously it was possible (though extremely tedious) to download via a web scraper that would visit each link and download each image, but that’s now functionally blocked.

I actually made a post about exactly this 10 years ago - https://www.reddit.com/r/talesfromtechsupport/s/OfykKFq4F2

I automated a woman’s job and it turned out she didn’t have any skills aside from the job itself and she couldn’t (or wouldn’t) be trained on anything else. I felt pretty bad, but I was totally blindsided by her firing!

RecursionIsRecursion

I like to add things to my homelab that are fun, useful, or that I might use in a workplace. Proxmox takes the lead with the first two, and given the price of VMWare, they lost the last one. I just don’t have any use for it now.

That and the recruiter rarely has any actual insight to verify. Sometimes old job reqs are copied and pasted, but not fully updated, leading to a situation where the new programmer you’re trying to hire is required to have 5 years’ accounting experience like the last position your company filled, and the recruiter doesn’t know that that’s weird enough to investigate.
