  1. Personally, I think any one who assumes he can grab a girl no matter where he is should be taught some truths.

    Even in the sleaziest bar, for someone to expect free "feel" is not on in my book.

    Had it happen me once, hang on that sounds odd it happened to my TGF. Was in Diamond Agogo she got up when to the toilet came back with a odd look. Asked her what happened turns out there were 2 older tourists with TG's sitting next to us as she got up one put his hand up her skirt sniffed his fingers and pulled a face. Waited for them to check bin and followed them out into Soi Diamond and calmly told the man who did it if he ever did it again he would regret it and he apologized but his drunk mate started getting in my face so I thought fuk it you both need to be taught a lesson. Went back into Diamond check binned as we walked out they were still on the floor.

  2. They want your data on the cloud because then they can watch what you are doing and control what you store.

    Aint that the sad truth. Five Eyes getting manufacturers to build back doors in for them. David Cameron openly saying encryption will not be tolerated with the recent threat of end to end encryption apps like WhatsApp being banned LINK

    “In our country, do we want to allow a means of communication between people which we cannot read?” said Prime Minister Cameron earlier this year.

    "My answer to that question is: 'No, we must not’.”

    Its no longer just about bad people trying to hide what the do but normal people demanding privacy. Democracy? LMFAO.

  3. No problem - I know I could always connect a media player such as WD Live, and may eventually do that, but what's the point of a TV having a USB port if it can't play the dämn videos, especially when the older model can?

    It's so frustrating when you buy a newer model expecting everything in the older model has been improved upon, only to find the opposite.

    I actually took a thumb drive with lots of different videos on it, each encoded using a different codec, to test the TV - the LG played the most, more than Samsung and Toshiba.

    Clearly, I need to add the .mkv with "16 reference frames" video to my thumb drive the next time I do that again. rolleyes.gif

    Cant you run an update on your TV it internet connected may be a new firmware will do it?

  4. High@L5 isn't a encoding format. Download something like Codec Sniper to find out the media encoding info.

    Your 47LB670T only supports DivX HD via USB.

    Have you tried using Smart Share to connect to a media centre/PC and pull the media from there as the 47LB670T supports H.264 one of the most common encoding codecs.

  5. Many thanks RichCor! didn't realise there were so many ways to connect.

    maybe one day, technology will advance to the point where all physical wires, cables and lines will be obsolete and wireless will be cheap and feasible for all smile.png

    Presume you are also aware there are different speed plan prices so even with the same connection you could have different prices?

    Agreed. I would be more concerned with the speed/data plan than the type of physical connection.

  6. I'm glad to hear this. It's sure a lot easier to have it fix itself. Did you uninstall the updates and either leave it or reinstall them, or did it just start working? I agree it was probably what you think it is and changes in startup services and programs are actually done by editing the registry but we often have a GUI that will do it.

    Once the machine seemed to return to normal after running "sfc/scannow", I happily left it alone. I figured whatever flaws the update had were pretty well fixed at the same time and that seems to have proven true.

    As anyone with even the most basic knowledge of computers will tell you. If it ain't broke don't fix it!

  7. Para, to answer your question, group policy, to the best of my knowledge, doesn't apply to a machine but rather an authorized user. Employees of our hospital could roam to any workstation and log on with their user/pass and get all of their files and permissions from the server. They were then responsible to log out when they finished. However I have seen a workstation want to stay logged onto the domain controller server after leaving and be in the same position that the OP was. Something corrupted.

    So it's all just curious and interesting is all.

    Cheers

    Absolutely correct. Its the profile (user account) that gets screwed up so when you log in and the OS tries to ensure all local GP's are up to date, fails and kicks you out. Problem is often your AD profiles becomes corrupt so stopping you roaming as every time you log in a new machine AD copies down your server profile and fails. You have to (in an AD environment) remove the profile from control panel, physically delete the c:\users\profile_name and also remove it from HKLM\profile list.

    I wonder if in this case its simply the Group Policy Client service is not set to auto start?

    We agree. I will say that it was hammered into me to never delete a profile but rather inactivate it. I don't know since I never did it but apparently there can be resources that belong to that owner that no one else can find. Again I don't know because that never happened due to inactivating instead.

    Thanks, It's been a good discussion after I got my nose into the right direction.

    Cheers.

    You must remove the profile from profile manager as that breaks the bound user profile and the SID (security ID) simply deleting the c:\users\profile_name isnt enough as the SID is still bound. Thats why you also have to remove from profile manager and the profile name from HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList.

    I hate corrupt profiles as creating a new one is as bad as installing all you apps and config again.

    A system restore could work as long as you went back past the date of corruption.

  8. Interesting as I'm considering the Note 5 when its released. Found this on a LG site that says their phones can support a max micro SD of 2TB! LINK its the formatting ability that seems to control it as in the PC HDD FAT/FAT32/NTFS all offering increased maximum capacity.

    As long as your device supports SDXC it can be formatted with exFAT (made popular by Linux) and 2TB is your limit. Working on Moor's Law doubling density every 2 years if 512 is available now the 1TB will be here by 2017 and 2TB by 2019.

    Don't hold me to that!

    As for what we will do. Have you downloaded any 4k stuff? a 22 minute clip comes in at whopping 3GB.

    With EE (in the UK) offering 4G EE Extra with a massive DL ability of 60Mps Moor's law puts that around 200+Mbps by 2019 so why use internal storage when DL sped will be so fast?

    The whole IT world is moving cloud based with Amazon as one of many now offering scalable AWS as a DasS the humble PC is on its last legs you just need a net connection and basic terminal and let you virtual PC follow you.

    Sorry if that went O/T!

  10. Group policy is part of AD. It's really slick in that the admin can make groups on the server and assign permissions to each group. Then all he has to do is join a user to that group and it inherits the permissions of the group. This makes it easy in a hospital to give nurses permissions to the patient medical files but not to payroll. Then the HR department bookkeepers get permissions to the payroll accounts but not medical records. Execs are members of both groups and can see everything. It can be as granular as wanted and have as many groups as needed and the rest is easy.

    Your group's policy is what is missing. Your computer is looking for that server so it can log on and get permissions.

    I think. Pretty sure, LOL.

    I am currently supporting a very large Windows environment and we often get GP log on failures. I simply remove the local profile whilst logged in as admin and then back onto the AD domain as the user which copies down a new profile. Never heard of it outside the Enterprise environment.

    What happens if you log in with a different local account?

  11. I think I can safely say there are more buddhists following the 8 fold path in India than in Thailand.

    Theravada Buddhism says only males can achieve enlightenment.. reality is anyone can.

    8 fold path says craving is why people suffer.. to not suffer in pain, you have to give up craving things. But most in Thailand crave about the latest motorbike, car and the newest iphone. When you've removed that part of the population, then you have the true buddhists. Compare that with those wanting to find enlightenment in Buddhist temples in India and the numbers will support what I said in the first sentence of this post.

    Hi JS not nit picking but I think you are referring to the 4 Nobel Truth.

    The Four Noble Truths are the truth of suffering, the truth of the cause of suffering, the truth of freedom from suffering, and the truth of the way to eliminate suffering, which is the Eightfold Path. Sadly consumerism has landed hard in Thailand and the old morals and principles are now not as respected by the younger generation who crave like most Westerners do.

    Found the above break down HERE and have to admit it surprised me.

  12. I spend 18 months as an ordained Monk in Thailand. The hardest part if finding an Abbot that can speak good English to help you with your Dhamma and meditation.

    *para* - by virtue of your obvious dedication, there aren't many robe doning local that could equal your questions with answers, even with the best of English. I'd love to hear more about those 18 months. Pm me

    YGM my friend......

    Odd when I try and PM it says you cant receive any?
