I prefer a 12 month or non-expiring password but at least 16 characters long. Complexity can go fly a kite. Those only cause users to write things down.

Finally! For a long time I thought I was the only person who enforced this policy. Even as a part of GPO on our domains I set it as minimum of 12 (due to the entropy at the time), but basically turned down the complexity. Even some of the more non-technical users have extremely complex passwords now that they don't need to write down, because I encourage four random words with maybe a number or two between them.

And hey, if you wanna get inventive with the spelling, go ahead, if it's easier for you to remember, helps against broad dictionary attack as well. More experienced people will try cracking passwords with multiple words and even numbers, especially these days, but obviously even some crap like (3fOe38!45b is not only easy to crack, but also hard to remember, and I'm still baffled as to why this is encouraged. I'm sure you're aware of this, but I'm just saying it for people who may not realise that complex to remember does not mean complex to guess.

I'd also like to remove the free consoles for Android...my phone uses the paid one.

Can someone go back and drop in a tab or 4 spaces in front of the lines to get the auto code detection to format those.

On a related note, there must be a plugin for code inserts because I noticed some nice inline code formatting over on the nodebb forum.

Unfortunately, the phone is a Lumia 920 and not on the list.

Nope, I wasn't thinking about it like that, thanks for pointing that out.

If it was purely hosting on its own, then your staffing concerns would certainly be correct.

Part of this is not correct. RHEL releases as often as not do not directly correspond to a specific Fedora release. I stumbled upon this myself when I tried to use Fedora packages in RHEL for some things (using packages for the same release of Fedora that the RHEL release was based on). Neither RHEL6 nor 7 was based on a single Fedora release:

https://access.redhat.com/articles/3078

True, they are starting to base it less closely now that Fedora has some additional testing that RHEL doesn't want to role in. SystemD is part of what caused this to change in RHEL 6. It's basically the same, still. Even if they based off of Fedora initially, it eventually skews as Fedora stops getting updates many, many years before RHEL does.

Port parameter wasn't introduced until PowerShell 3.0, so you'll need to make sure you're on at a minimum of that before this will work. PowerShell 4.0 is the current version and 5.0 is coming out SOON. So if you're still on 2.0, upgrade now!

I have a similar thread running around somewhere.

Thanks for this I'll be running it on Monday.

Woot! Woot!

Timely article, thanks.

yeah I jumped on the Echo bandwagon as well. In light of the Samsung TV thing, I'm not really keen anymore to having a device around whose job it is is to listen to me talk...

That's why I specifically pointed out in that other thread why a device from Amazon would be of no concern.

There are 2 transfer keys (well one actual key and one for an option on the screen). Could one of these be configured for BLF?

That sounds neat. I wonder what we will see come of that.

bsouder thank you for providing links on the educational part. I really need all I can get. I really do appreciate that!

Given that Imgur and Gravatar already function as CDNs for nearly all of our content, there isn't all that much value in CloudFlare here anyway. The ML engine itself is pretty much producing nothing but text.

Windows 8 suffered from the "we know what's best for you and we don't care what you want" mentality, otherwise known as hubris. With Windows 10, I feel like MS listened to customer demands - for example, bringing back the start menu button, and shrinking the Windows 8 start screen down to a less annoying, and user-friendly size, cause let's face it, everything popping up full screen is frustrating, especially when it's not what you're used to - and delivered, at least in the tech preview, a snappy, intuitive, just plain nice to use OS.

soooo you're talking about robocopy instead of DFS?

I don't believe the file in my question to be static.. it needs to be changeable by all parties.

Micrsoft recommends during a robocopy before you turn on DFS. That way there isnt files replicating like crazy when you first turn it on. There will only be a few files which need to be updated.

OK sure, but he doesn't need whole folders to be replicated, he only needs single files for that outside the norm access.

Right. I was just trying to think of an outside of the box type way to do what he accomplished. When I saw it was only specific files, I realized it wasn't the right solution.

Let us know if you make it into the program for the Preview - I heard that it was closed to new members./

Very cool, thanks.

Might as well be you!
