Cool tool: [WayBack] Windows Services Dependency Viewer – Home:
Windows Services Dependency Viewer is a simple tool that provides the following information:
- Windows service dependent and antecedent services
- Services grouped by process
- Service details (from Win32_Service WMI class)
- Service process details (from Win32_Process WMI class
This tremendously helps getting an overview of which Windows Services to monitor for running state: if for instance you need monitor SMTP, then you do not need to monitor Event Log as that is a requirement.

Like any product documentation, Zabbix’ is shattered and terse.
So here is how I ensured a specific user could edit the items of hosts:
- Added new user group named
Administer Configuration Host Itemscontaining userExamplehaving these read-write composing permissions:
- Applicatie ontwikkel test
- Applicatie productie Approve demo VPN
- servers Dbases Kantoor applicaties
- Changed
User typeof user namedExamplefromZabbix UsertoZabbix Adminso access to theConfigurationtab is granted.See 2 Permissions [Zabbix Documentation 3.0] for
User typeexplanation; excerpt:
Zabbix Admin: The user has access to the Monitoring and Configuration menus. The user has no access to any host groups by default. Any permissions to host groups must be explicitly given.

For a very long time, gMail did nothing with Outlook Calendar entires.
So I had to view at the message source, then translate them to Google Calendar entries myself.
As of late, they seem to be processed into Google Calendar compatible entries. Nice!

[WayBack] BreedbandAtlas | Bekijk de consumentenbreedband dekking op uw locatie:
De BreedbandAtlas toont u actuele informatie over de dekking van consumentenbreedband in Nederland – zowel het type verbinding als de snelheid.
This is for consumer broadband connections, but for many businesses that is good enough (especially since players like xs4all and HeldenVanNu offer business plans like subnets, PIN-payment-over-IP).

“Bio can’t include ‘invalid characters'”
Oh well: some profile characters give you a “Bio can’t include ‘invalid characters'” error.
This is forbidden:

But this is allowed:

I solved it thanks to these links:

Last year I bumped into a great article about the state of the art on [WayBack] Micro SD Cards for Development Boards – Classes, Tools, Benchmarks, Reliability, and Tips & Tricks.
I wonder what has changed by now.

Most you probably know [WayBack] Professor Brian Kernighan or the YouTube channel Computerphile (sister channel of Numberphile).
He stars in about half a dozen of their videos giving a nice insight in his contributions to the field and how well he can explain things.
Full videos are below; these are the titles:
BTW: If you like those youtube channels, check out [WayBack] Brady Haran – Video Journalist who produces similar channels as well.

Both in %TEMP% and %Windir%\TEMP, a lot of log files named %COMPUTERNAME%-yyymmdd-hhnn.loghaving entries named Click-To-Run General Telemetry appear.
Anyone who knows how to disable this logging?
I think they are related to Office 2016 installed through Office 365.
Disabling the Click-To-Run Monitor scheduled task is not a good solution, as it will also Office disable update notification: [WayBack] MS Office 2016 – Click to run logs | MalwareTips Forums
