Would have been better without the "-ing" somehow: "Recovering strength" should have been "resting", not "rest".
Perhaps "Recovering strength without booze drops junction limitation. (9)"?

Microsoft has a cure for that.
It's called "creating an account."
I created an Azure account for my business a few months ago and added myself to the Azure AD (using an Azure-native account).
Now I want to buy Microsoft 365 for Business.
First, I get a notification that I already have it and it's managed by my company.
I knew nothing about that.
Also, I don't know how to manage it using "my company" and I am my company!
Apparently, I had to use the Azure-native account that I used to invite myself.
Alright, so I log in and indeed, I get some options.
It takes me to some admin center that I can't remember signing up for, but which I get for free, and I've got some Teams Exploratory License.
Don't ask me what it is or what it can do.
I'm completely puzzled.
What is all this stuff and what more do I have that I know nothing about?

Buy a Microsoft product, enter their eco system. You get a bunch of stuff that you don't need and you will find you need a vast number of "servers" to accomplish anything. And if you think the various departments talk to each other your nuts.

I don't care when I get things I don't need (as long as it's free), I can simply ignore them.
I would like to know that I have them though, and where I can find them.

That's probably the biggest issue with all this stuff

I had a similar issue with setting up a personal Office 365 account. Later I had wanted to add a Visio subscription but that required a "business account" and a business subscription to Office 365. So I made up some stupid company name and visio was attached to that.
So, for a while I had 2 separate accounts being used on my personal workstation and I could not remember which one was which.
I had the most difficult time trying to remove the Visio subscription later down the road.
major ugh session.

The personal/business account crap is the worst.
In fact, Microsoft messed that up so bad I had to address it in my upcoming book on Azure DevOps.
"Microsoft has really messed up account creation in the past. Personally, I still have an email address that is used for both a personal and a work account and I have no way of seeing in which account I am logged in to. Sometimes I have to switch accounts which is just logging in again with the same email address. To fix this issue, Microsoft has disabled registration with a work or school email address. In practice, this means any email from a domain that is configured in an Azure Active Directory (Azure AD or AAD). So, if you have an email address myname@mycompany.com and want to use it at this point [creating a Microsoft account], you may be out of luck. No worries though, you can still use it later. You can read more about this issue here: https://mspoweruser.com/microsoft-finally-blocking-users-creating-microsoft-account-work-email-address/[^]."
I was recently stupid enough to remove an email address from my Azure AD because of this.
I lost access to some (paid) services and I needed (paid) support to get it all back

So it is working as MS designed it, then.

It's another free Syncfusion Succinctly eBook

It's finally released! Free Ebook - Azure DevOps Succinctly[^]
You can read it online for free, but you'll need a (free) account for downloads (PDF, ePub and Mobi).
I already have an account so email me (by replying with "Email" to this message) if you want any of those (but don't tell anyone I said that  ).

Wow, you really need to dump CP.
A couple of years ago Sean and Chris totally abused me and blamed me for things I did not do, and was not the first time. So, I had finally had enough. I turned on an adblocker. I liked coming here to help people in QA but there was no way they were going to make money off of me anymore.
Sean finally kicked me off the site completely so this is just a temp email and if you reply, it may never get to me. But I saw Balboos post in the Lounge which is clearly a flagrant political post and you rightly called him out.
But YOUR POST IS LOCKED, NOT HIS!!!! Are you freakin kidding me?   
It's Chris' site so he can do whatever the heck he wants. I just wish he'd be honest about it and post something at the top that says anti-conservative viewpoints are welcome but conservative ones will get you banned. It's the dishonesty that Chris and Sean show that is disgusting, but let's face it, on par for leftists.
Anyway, I still come to the site from time to time just to hit their page and not generate any ads. But even though I was part of this site for so many years, it's actually been quite refreshing to leave it behind. I have never fit in here. It's too much of a click.
Just my 2 cents.
See ya.

I hate it when my administrator (me) does stuff without telling me (I'm also me)!

It is what they call 'the tip of the iceberg'...
All the cloud with all its departments is so tangled that hard to understand... We actually pay for experts to do simple things like assign roles and licenses - the right ones to the right person...

I've worked for a company who did that too.
Those experts are disgustingly expensive and their worth can be questioned.
We made a calculation and estimated our Azure environment to be around €300 per environment per month, so for DTAP that's €1200.
We got a bill of €2000 for production alone...
The fun part was that production was our least busy environment as it was a new product that was being actively developed and tested and hardly used in production yet.
When we asked our "cloud partner" for the invoice they had amazing stories of how that would be difficult and it wasn't that simple.
Anyway, I have just myself, so I'm not going to hire an expert to assign me one license

@DavidCunningham and myself discuss this a lot. It's an absolute debacle.
We feel your pain.

The T0 sensor is the thermistor at the hotend of my 3D printer. Usually that means that the thermistor is shorted out (0 resistance) or one of the wires has broken (infinite resistance). The problem is that the error only occurs now and then in the middle of a print. After a reset everything is ok again, but the print is ruined.
Most probably it's just a broken contact or wire that sometimes fails as the printing head moves around. That's a real pain to track down and I don't want to randomly replace parts and cables until it's ok again. Any ideas?
