I'm not sure anyone really knows what Alt Gr is supposed to do. It seems to change based on whatever window is active at any given moment for me.

Arquinsiel posted:I'm not sure anyone really knows what Alt Gr is supposed to do. It seems to change based on whatever window is active at any given moment for me. AltGr does three things: Push and release acts as the left Alt key. Combined with a key that has a third graphical character on it in the current layout types that character. Combined with any other key acts as Ctrl+Alt+key. Of course some games handle it specially, treating it as "right alt", the same way they distinguish between left and right shift/ctrl keys.

nielsm posted:AltGr does three things: Push and release acts as the left Alt key. Well, only in things that explicitly treat left alt and right alt as the same key. Whether it's labeled AltGr or just plain Alt, it will still send a different scancode, and poorly written software often ignores it or behaves bizarrely. This is also why the games you mention are able to receive it as a separately bound key, though it's interesting that there's no rhyme or reason as to when a game will treat both alts the same or whether it treats them as distinct keys.

An older lady came in to wire money to (if I remember correctly) a "nice minister in Nigeria". While there is a chance it could have been legitimate (at least, a better chance than sending money for a lottery or an inheritance fee) it still sets off a lot of alarms for me.

A user isn't a property of an OU, it's an object within an OU. But the directory is a hierarchy, so the parent OU of an object is a property of the object itself.

tehloki posted:it's the nigerian email scam page I used to work at a call center for a bank. Had one lady call up and ask about the process of sending money overseas, fairly typical stuff. But then she asked if it was strange that this Spanish lottery had said she had won but she needed to send some details to them first. I immediately told her it was a scam, no one wins a lottery they didn't enter etc, but she ended the call saying "Well... maybe I did enter something..." That was depressing. But I've managed to save others. Had another caller who was a hotel owner, claimed he had someone in Africa wanting to make a booking, they had a cheque they could transfer over, but it was for too high an amount, so they wanted the hotel owner to deposit it and refund them the extra. Guy called asking if that made sense, I told him right off that 1) overseas cheques take weeks to clear, and 2) That cheque was probably from some bank in the middle of nowhere, Africa that will take even longer to reply back to us to say it's bogus and to bounce it, by which point he's sent his 'refund' by far more legitimate means. I credit that job with me now finding scams fascinating, and I love to read scam emails to see what angle they take. Worst ever attempt I had to deal with: "Hey my name's Steve, this is Bob's account number, Bob owes me money so please transfer $100 out of that account to me. What do you mean you can't do that?"

Maybe all these people storing "do not delete" items in the Recycle Bin/Trashcan/Deleted Items Folder/Godzilla's Flaming Anus just need to be educated in how to create an entirely new folder they can name to "Do Not Delete"? Or maybe that folder should be created on install, I dunno.

I'm working on a simple script to use Robocopy to move files older than 60 days to a variable created folder, then delete the folder. Even if I use /sd:%_robodel% it still lumps the source and destination folders into the source. Here's what I'm trying to do - anyone know what I can try? Or even better, an option that doesn't require Robocopy? Powershell is out, I don't want to futz with code signing or changing execution policy - optimally I'd just like to run this as a scheduled task. code:[code] C:\Users\mpadmin\AppData\Local\Temp\2\~robodel>robocopy "D:\Program Indexing\T rips\Processed\" %_robodel% /move /minage:30 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ROBOCOPY :: Robust File Copy for Windows ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Started : Wed Nov 19 11:37:55 2014 Source : D:\Program Indexing\Trips\Processed" C:\Users\myaccount\AppData\Loca l\Temp\2\~robodel \move \minage:30\ Dest - Files : *.* Options : *.* /COPY:DAT /R:1000000 /W:30 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ERROR : No Destination Directory Specified.

What's this, an alert for low disk space on a terminal server? Well, I'll go take a look see, it can't be that low- Oh.   Jesus Christ, Dept12...get your God-drat poo poo together. And in case the chart on the right didn't clue you in, yes, most of the files in all those loving temp folders, after you drill down even further (since each folder contains Appdata\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content\Content.IE5\[random folder name]) are video and flash files:  It didn't look to be porn at first glance, but I wasn't interested in wasting time scouring through them.
