Batch file 1, Me 0

As with all things recalled from memory, there may be some minor embellishments.

I was recently tasked with upgrading the Sophos console.  Simple enough right?  The directions insured us that there were no needs for Database work, it was simply a matter of downloading the upgrade file, unpacking it and running the update.  Ah, simple, the way I like my software updates… But, alas, it was not to be!

Windows, you complete me… 1327%

Just a short background and two images…  We received new IDs for work yesterday.  In order to pick them up, we went over to the Tech Depot.  While waiting for the IDs to be printed, I was looking at the laptops and noticed the first image, which I captured with my phone.  This morning, I received a text from one of the techs with a picture from the same laptop.  Keep it classy Windows!  Nice to know you give more than 100% on your updates!

Changing language setting on facebook

There’s been a couple folks I know who use facebook and have faced the issue of having their “language” setting changed.  There doesn’t seem to be anything they did, which makes think suspicious activity and I’d probably be changing the password used for facebook. However, before you can change the password, you need to be able to read the menus, and unless you just happen to read the language it’s been changed to, you’re between a rock and a hard place.

In an effort to help those, here’s the screenshots and where you should click in order to change your language settings in facebook.

Step one : Click on “Settings”, it’s the highlighted in the following image

Step four : Select your “Language”, from the drop down list. Luckily all the languages are localized, so you should recognize your language’s name.

Step five : Last, but not least, don’t forget to click “Save Changes”, the button on the left.
