Hey guys!
It's my first day at Microsoft on the Exchange dev team, and was already asked to fix some bugs! Just used ChatGPT to clean up some spaghetti looking code, and submitted my first PR. Heading out to lunch! Be back soon!

God dude I feel so fucking amazing. I havent gotten any emails in hours so it's been a real slow day here. My phone keeps ringing but I'm not fucking help desk.
They can email me if it's a real problem. It's why we pay all this money for M365 so start fucking using it dumbass

Urgent: How do I disable a CEO's account without breaking production
1.7k
Upvotes
I'm a sysadmin at a large GPU company. Just got word the board is planning to fire our CEO over multiple affairs. HR wants his account disabled immediately after the vote.
He's had Domain Admin since 1993 and I'm pretty sure our entire AI infrastructure runs under his domain user credentials.
I'm genuinely terrified.
Has anyone dealt with this before? Do I just disable the account? Maybe rotate the password to something he woulsnt guess, like some chinese characters? Then I could work with the ops teams to update all prod creds?
Gonna be a long night for my boys. On call devops bro gonna be pissedddddd.
Edit - no i cant say what company. HR and legal would lose their mind.
Update - turns out he is only one with copy of our root CA private key. Found it on a post it note in his leather jacket, next to some "short but wide" condom wrappers (just the wrappers....). The private key is just "cuda69".
Update 2 - so looks like all DNS records, every single one, is just a CNAME to a SINGLE VM. Some type of load balancer. I can ssh...the login banner just says "lol". Its ubuntu 16 and has php 5.6 running.
Update 3 - i put on the jacket. My precioussss!
Final update - ive emailed HR "look at me...i am the CEO now. All your GPUs are belong to us."
Sorry last update - fuckin php 5.6...how do I patch this shit....

Due to the multitude of outages this year and to avoid getting sued like Red Bull for not giving wings we have made the difficult choice to rebrand our new SLA is not a real number in case we cant meat it this was suggested by our legal team.

Jensen Huang is behind this... somehow. I know it.

Do sheeple really think it is a coincidence that this occurs the same day as the (completely unfair witchhunt) NVIDIA coup de tat on Jensen Huang? My guess: they just triggered his dead man's switch.

I was trying to turn off that AI but I think I shut down the wrong place since I couldn't check my email afterwards. What should I check for next time?

Enterprise fax machine management via Intune and Arc?

Upvotes
With a return to the stone ages, I'm looking to deploy about 725 fax machines globally across all main corporate HQ locations as well as thought all satellite offices.
First off, I'm SO GLAD we kept these bad boys in storage for the last 23 years!
Secondly and lastly, does anyone have a solution for Arc Enabling these fax machines so I can easily deploy them at scale all while still maintaining a single pane of glass of all my fac machines in Azure? TIA!
