      You could hire a model and take some – ahem – mag snaps – might be best done in a studio though. 😛
      Oh, absolutely no problem with subs, just hanker for the human interaction, and the expressions on the faces of other customers when I go in to ask questions re MAD ETA. 😛
      Who’s Action?
      Currently streaming Wayward Pines, it’s rather good. Never realised it’s from as far back as 2015 though. What really curled the eyebrows was the link to Bloody Disgusting in that article about the trailer crashing in. What is really bloody disgusting is the number of spooky video box ads crawling all over the site. 🙁

        Turns out it is high on their priority list, no milestone yet.
        There is this, which requires Javascript which isn’t enabled at this time.

          Here’s piffle for sniffle! Light the fuse of the imagination and go with Rocky the Invincible! And yes, even our own HeyWire accepts entries, I just have to tell ’em I’m 16 going on 65! Meh, a bit past the old prime, and without bridle, saddle or spur it’s horses off courses, not running around in circles, but round in squares, blindfolded through mazes or frantically in all directions!
          Lovely, look after the teeth especially, you will be rewarded later.
          Yeah, all they had here was Phantom, used to like reading them, once had Phantom no. #32.

          Silly me, got a hefty parking fine, decided to take it to court, a bad decision as there is so much work to do for it. Pleading guilty, so consequently asking for leniency, but will any be given?

            Good one, yeah copy the whole lot, the sooner the better, as once we have the conversations tarball, it’ll be a great relief over here in removing NodeJs, PS7, and all the other things changed in this system in preparation to running the export script. And then finally uninstalling MS Teams, which will probably have to be done anyway, as it is now unsupported.

            The original plan of removing the mfa default temporarily so login can commence while we run the script, then turning off the default in real time can be really quick and easy. What about ten minutes? Have searched extensively, turning up nothing indicating any rational reason of why things would fail when toggling a default setting. But I do understand you are extremely sensitive about the possibilities of a BSOD or similar when doing something a Microsoft program does not recommend, even though their recommendation is to install their ridiculous 50mb Authenticator app which doesn’t work, and wears out the mobile battery whenever it does decide to work.

            As another alternative, doing things the longer way again, is it worth asking them if we can eradicate all traces of a user once he has left Teams? The idea is to log into Blanko, with the 30 day mfa limit renewed. We tried it before, as you know, without success, perhaps a critical step was missed?

            If these don’t suit, then it’s important to identify whatever is spooking our reasoning and rationale for the use of these workarounds. But hey, we all knew MS were never going to make their content exportable at the outset, because they knew of the coming slow dance of death around a certain class of disgruntled users, all banging against the Gates of coming Oblivion. 😛

              Thanks for the update. Certainly worth raising at WP then.

                The guys at discord are still hanging for my login. They are really nice and helpful, so we don’t want to end up as a bad taste in their mouths. Should I offer a sweetener as some kind of stopgap until D-Day?

                  Goodness gracious, it’s quite big. Is it going to be consigned to the garage?
                  Were you there to catch the tennis balls with a racquet – so the neighbours don’t freak, why not get it to blow bubbles?
                  On free to air, they seem to be in a bit of a time warp with the ads, some have been going on for at least a decade. 😛
                  Cool, which reminds me, the newsagent closed, how combining the reduced magazine stand into the tobacco shop over the road. Which meant no room on the stand for MAD magazine any more. 🙁

                    Done, although the forum pages don’t all update with the changes, so had to use the repair forum facility in Tools.
                    Some of these smilies don’t work in BBPress, hoping there’s something lightweight handy instead.

                      Asked at Discord. Pretty sure the script will work, with the caveat of being logged in to Blanko, so perhaps you have an idea?. 🙂
                      Or you could try the script yourself – from the Discord:

                      In order to export Teams (Classic Free) channel content this is the script to run:
                      https://pnp.github.io/cli-microsoft365/sample-scripts/teams/export-teams-conversations/
                      Install PS 7.3.4, NodeJS and npm (no extra modules) for CLI.

                      You’ll want to reboot, then login to Blanko at Office 365, and run the PS 7.3.4 script as Admin.
                      Good luck! 🙂

                        Now there is the bbp style pack on board, perhaps it has some goodies like that. Embedded HTML for post format as it is in Jive is also nice.

                        Beautiful! Give some a try, for a lightweight vibe, an image can be less than around a megabyte, thus a large image need not have a high dpi. For users with huge resolutions, image tiling is an alternative to stretch as well. 🙂

                            Dang it, raised an issue, they may be familiar with this stuff. Edit: Can’t help, I suppose I could as at Stack Exchange. When we talk about Apache Server – is this the one being used, or something else?
                            Sorry, brain_fail, who was Jack?
                            Definitely, perhaps we should just have a private forum, and another public one, – else it’s going to get very higgledy piggledy. 😛

                              Googling doesn’t turn up too much, it may be an Apache ModSecurity generated thing shelled by Cleantalk, the incident Ids are very long, however. More like an Azure ID.
                              The last comment to this SO answer has a number like your 16 digit monster, but less in value.
                              The file “cannot be downloaded securely” and this is explained a bit here:
                              https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/586004/how-to-avoid-the-file-cant-be-downloaded-securely
                              Looks like Edge hooking into Apache ModSecurity rules.

                              Also, the Cleantalk summary for yesterday:

                              That gives daily info, for history, go to their site. That one looked okay for you – so if it wasn’t the Pradesh Bob Marley, perhaps it wasn’t picked up at all?

                                Nope, still can’t get in as before. That link just defaults to the Private Enterprises account, which btw has those warning alarms in the Azure Portal, and everything is working perfectly for that account. For now, that is, – who knows when MS is planning to blow it all up, though. 😛

                                  The length and frequency of moody episodes decrease over the years, for me at least, it’s also a nice cheat to have a little brood, and call it meditation. And so it is good ho for the thread – in fact, it has turned out to be a rather broodiful idea!
                                  As it sounds like the reading of these well written books is helping in a good way, then how about a continuation of the writing? If not teeing-off with a full sized novel, instead, try brainstorming for a rollicking short story. You know, a good short story can leap over all the starters and perform cartwheels before the others even find their feet (metrical or otherwise 😛 ).

                                    Unfortunately, still got the “Your organization needs more information to keep your account secure” message.
                                    Signing in, it still wants the authenticator app, choosing the “use another authenticator app”, it presents a QR code (which my mobile can never scan from this monitor – refresh rate?), and we are going nowhere.
                                    Perhaps you could try turning the default mfa off temporarily, so at least I can login to add the phone number? Before we do, does the phone number work for you?
                                    Fine in this thread, as we are leaving Teams after all. 🙂

                                      Did a modification on Twenty Twenty Three (see this comment at github) by copying the content of that to index.php in the theme directory.
                                      If this is affecting BBPress in some way, then perhaps more modifications are in order. 🙂

                                      Might also include a snippet of the user section of the wp-config.php file:

                                      /* Add any custom values between this line and the “stop editing” line. */
                                      //define( ‘WP_DEBUG’, true );
                                      // Enable Debug logging to the /wp-content/debug.log file
                                      define( ‘WP_DEBUG_LOG’, false );
                                      /* Memory */
                                      define( ‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ’64M’ );
                                      define( ‘WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘256M’ );
                                      /* Multisite */
                                      //define( ‘WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE’, true );
                                      /* That’s all, stop editing! Happy publishing. */

                                        It’s an idea, there is sure to be a workaround with Twenty Twenty Three after a little digging, give me a bit. Hmmm, there is a similar issue with BBPress? Might be a topic for a new thread, then.

                                        Created a new topic for Teams content recovery, did a search for “BBPress” in Teams, the only jump link relating was this one:

                                        Creating Content


                                        Created a topic for Teams, just as I was doing it, Quadri from MS support Nigeria phoned again. The line is bad, so he comes across as something intelligible, yet I thanked him for his help in winding up the issue. An issue which, although not solved, has certainly provided some insights into the workings of Azure. 🙂

                                            Yeah, did all that. Can change the template of the page (Blank, Blog (Alternative) – the welcome text and consequently none of the comments appear, looks as if some more research/tweaking is required. OTOH, some of the wp setup here is fragile, and prone to break if we start fiddling too much, although modifying the templates shouldn’t harm too much. What do you think?
