[Simon Stone] Gary Neville: "Embarrassing. But it’s what they have done, drag everything out, always in their best interests" in c/reddevils

[–] Mackerdaymia 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Sorry but sympathy with GNev's opinions only go so far with me. Never said a word until he had his career and investments away from United nice and secure. Once he was safe to start throwing muck, he started criticising. Look at Rio and others. Never say a word because they know how important their connection is to the club still.

Sensible Transfers: Manchester United in c/reddevils

[–] Mackerdaymia 1 points 2 years ago

I was really looking forward to this video this season as it really feels like United have to be proper sensible... and then it ends up being the worst video they've put out in a long time.

He's right about the age profile thing but then there isn't a position by position look at a few options like there used to be, just "what about Mohamed Camara?". Maybe their hands are tied by the takeover? Either way saying De Jong and Kane would be the cheaper options is just absolute nonsense.

Doesn't bode well for the future of Tifo if this is what McKenzie puts out on his own.

Defender for Business Licenses (SOLVED) in c/sysadmin

[–] Mackerdaymia 1 points 2 years ago

So the current setup has the 40+ computers being used to control machines or for simple admin - they don't require office programs or anything fancy beyond the occasional bit of industry software and cmd basically. The work is shared out among different teams and the computers need to be running 12+ hours a day constantly so having several users logging in/out, launching programs, forgetting passwords just holds everything up. Obviously it's a liability but they're heavily monitored.

So now we're in the situation where each computer needs a user with a license (due to the Defender licensing model) and I'm essentially being lazy trying to save myself a ton of work and hoping that I'd misunderstood the process, allowing a workaround of some variety.

Defender for Business Licenses (SOLVED) (self.sysadmin)

I'm wondering if anyone here can help me get my head around MS Defender for Business. We're currently in the process of switching over and have one month until the contract with our current AV Provider (Sophos) runs out.

So far it's been plain sailing with 100% of our standard users having an MS 365 License which includes defender. They all have "their own" computer so that works out nice and easy. The server licenses/onboarding has been working fine as well following the set process from MS (scripts etc.).

But we also have a few manufacturing departments where computers are shared for ease of use. Following MS's guide, we'd need at least one licensed user (i.e. the main one) per computer to get that working. We were initially hoping we could get away with onboarding the computers and using a single user for all 40+ of them but that seems impossible (MS wants to make money of course)

The workaround we've been considering was using a licensed dummy user per computer that we use to simply sign into MS 365 (for the license). So we'd keep our current structure but then have for example FactoryUserA1 etc. with the license. Simply creating the users would save us a ton of work and I'd rather not have to generate 40+ users in our AD and then painstakingly configure them all to fit our current structure.

Hope I'm making sense here and that someone can help.

Thanks for your time fellow Admins.

UPDATE: We've sorted it out. Our supplier neglected to tell us about the Defender for Endpoint licenses. We were under the false impression that the new licenses could oinly be assigned per user as they are included in the Business Premium package.

[ManUtd] 🇧🇷 @Casemiro believes modern football is all about the collective, rather than the individual 💪#MUFC in c/reddevils

[–] Mackerdaymia 3 points 2 years ago

He's right. And that's a shot across Ronaldo's bow. I'm loving Casemiro more and more every day.

[Nizaar Kinsella] Chelsea end Andre Onana interest to leave Manchester United in pole position in c/reddevils

[–] Mackerdaymia 2 points 2 years ago

I'd buy him in a heartbeat. Ten Hag knows him really well, he'd improve our buildup instantly and his shot stopping is equal to De Gea's. Not sure he's got the worldies in him like DDG but overall it's an upgrade.

[Simon Johnson] The expectation is #MUFC will bid for Mason Mount again next week after having a £40m bid rejected on Wednesday. All about the fee. United won’t match #CFC’s asking price of £70m+. in c/reddevils

[–] Mackerdaymia 2 points 2 years ago

Broadly agree but I'd go even lower. £50m take it or leave it. We need to grow some balls when it comes to transfers. Mount's key strength is pressing IMO. He doesn't stop running and like you say is an upgrade technically on Fred. He's an ideal partner for Casemiro as he gets older.

ALL The Goals 😮‍💨 | Man Utd 2022/23 ⚽️ in c/reddevils

[–] Mackerdaymia 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Watched this yesterday. Three things stood out for me:

Just how fucking great Garnacho is. Still a super-sub IMO but exactly the sort of player we want scaring the shit out of the opposition.
Sancho gets far too much hate. He looks slow and overthinks compared to our more direct players but you see in those highlights how important he was in the buildup/execution of some of our better goals. Amazing how much he features considering he was gone for 3-4 months.
It's really noticeable how few goals we scored post Barca. Think those double-game weeks started to really stack up and once Casemiro and then Martinez were gone, Ten Hag had to adapt and make us more conservative.

If they'd had a good season it might've happened. His next move will be Newcastle or City - no-one else bar a Qatari United will be able to afford him.

Nine Two UK Holdings Ltd., with Sheikh Jassim as one of the directors, is officially a company in the UK, starting today. in c/reddevils

[–] Mackerdaymia 2 points 2 years ago

I completely get wanting the investment. If United are to be competitive, someone needs to drag them out of the toilet. I realise how lucky I was to spend my teens and 20s watching the team I support win everything but some things are more important. I feel sorry for younger fans but for me personally, it's probably time to call it a day if the Qataris come in. With Ratcliffe I could just about carry on. Ineos are a horrible company but it really seems like he's doing it for emotional reasons as it doesn't make business sense. Better than the Glazers and Qataris IMO even if it isn't a high bar.

The reasons add up though. Like a dripping tap (faucet). Facebook died a slow death, Twitter is dying a slow death - even if Musk hit it with a couple of shots to the chest. Reddit could go that way too. When the good people leave, you're just left with scumbags on a scumbag platform and users aren't idiots and don't accept toxic places online anymore.
