Protect data on an unmanaged device
For various reasons my employer wants to allow people to access their email (on prem right now soon to be exo) from a personal hone with absolutely zero management of that device.
Access can be granted easily enough but if that person leaves how do I deal with the emails sitting on the device?
Do I ban the native mail app and only require Outlook app? Only allow email from Outlook if the devices unmanaged or some combination of using the Outlook app, CA policies, mobile device mailbox policy in EXO etc. allow me to prevent access to the Outlook app and therefore downloaded emails if their account no longer exists.
I don’t care if they add their personal emails to the outlook app and then can’t access it, they can just delete the app and reinstall it and add their personal email again.
Any ideas?

MDE extension getting pushed automatically but failing
Hi members,
My tenant has Defender for Endpoint already for cloud-native devices and at the same time, I have Defender for Cloud Plan 1 enabled for my Azure VMs (Windows 11). These machines are also reporting on Defender for Endpoint but the MDE extensions keeps failing due to unsupported OS. I did a workaround and turned OFF Endpoint Protection from the Plan 1 and the issue is not occurring anymore.
My question: Should I deploy MDE from Defender for Endpoint for these machines and keep “Endpoint Protection” turned OFF from Defender for Cloud? It seems it is conflicting.

Propeller Connetion to Motor
Hello,
I am trying to model the propeller + ship resistance and connecting it to a motor.
As shown below.
I got the resistance and propeller from the "Ship Propeller" example in Simulink.
My question is the following:
how do i connect R1 output of the propeller to the motor?
What does R1 represent? Will it be propeller RPM?

Why do the visually output results from stereo calibration not match the T value of PoseCamera2?
I want to estimate the positions and orientations of two cameras, so I captured images of a checkerboard, created 27 pairs, and performed stereo calibration. The distance between the cameras is approximately 4.5 meters, and the checkerboard was photographed from various angles at distances ranging from 1 to 6 meters from the cameras. The overall average reprojection error during this process was 0.28 pixels.
The results of the stereo calibration are shown in the attached image. To make the issue more understandable, the image is displayed in the x-z plane. Below, I will list the ‘data from this image’ and ‘PoseCamera2’s T’ obtained from the stereo calibration.
Visual data: approximately [-2700, -500, 3500]…①
PoseCamera2’s T: [3540, -734, 2748]…②
When comparing the results of ① and ②, it seems that the x and z components are reversed. I would like to know why the results of ① and ②, which are supposed to be the same, do not match. Additionally, the actual positional relationship between Camera 1 and Camera 2 nearly matches ①, so I would like to understand the reason for this as well.
Regarding the cause of the discrepancy between ① and ②, I have considered the following points, but I have not resolved the issue:
Differences due to coordinate systems:I think the results’ coordinate systems in ① and ② might be different. However, since PoseCamera2 output by stereo calibration uses the optical center of Camera 1 as the origin, it seems that the origin of the visual data should match. Therefore, I believe that the coordinate systems of ① and ② are the same.
Misunderstanding in handling R and T:PoseCamera2 represents the relative pose that transforms Camera 2’s pose into Camera 1’s pose. If we represent the pose of Camera 1 as [R1, t1; 0 1], the pose of Camera 2 as [R2, t2; 0 1], and PoseCamera2 as [R, T; 0 1], the relationship [R1, t1; 0 1] = [R, T; 0 1] * [R2, t2; 0 1] holds, leading to: R1 = R * R2…③ t1 = R * t2 + T…④ I was previously informed by a STAFF member about this relationship. Here, even when considering only the position and ignoring the orientation of R, substituting ② into ⑤ does not align the pose of Camera 2 with Camera 1. Therefore, I suspect there might be a misunderstanding in my handling of R and T.
As a supplementary note, the values of R are [0.051, 0.085, -0.99; -0.31, 0.95, 0.065; 0.95, 0.31, 0.075].I want to estimate the positions and orientations of two cameras, so I captured images of a checkerboard, created 27 pairs, and performed stereo calibration.

Troubleshooting by windows server 2019
Hi Community,
I need your wisdom to stop windows server 2019 from rebooting on its own.
I believe that the reboot is caused by windows update because I saw the following code in the logs
Service pack (Planned)
Reason Code:0x80020010
I reboot once every two weeks using task-scheduler.
But the day after the reboot, it rebooted itself again!
I checked the GPOs applied using gpresult /H and found the following
Specify an automatic restart deadline to install updates
Quality Updates : 14
Feature updates : 14
Configure Automatic Updates: 4
Installing during automatic maintenance
Disabled
Allow automatic updates to be installed immediately
Enabled
Is there any setting that is missing?

iCloud sync solution for 32-bit Outlook (incorrect password, default profile error, iCloud repair)
As of version 15.x.x, iCloud for Outlook appears to be permanently broken when synchronizing contacts and calendars. The previous steps posted in “iCloud for Outlook Incorrect Username or Password” no longer work. As per a comment by @MarMD in that thread, 64-bit office is the solution.
Some people are able to fix the issue simply by upgrading to 64-bit office.
If that doesn’t work on the first try, the solutions below include additional steps to make it happen.
(We had one PC just work, one required a few additional tweaks in Solution A, another required the full battery of steps in Solution B).
Please note that both lists below are solutions, /not/ recommendations — please decide for yourself.
– Mike
——————————————————————————————————-
SOLUTION A: 64-BIT OFFICE — WITH A FEW INSTALLATION TWEAKS
This usually works, and ran fine the first time on one of our PC’s.
1. Back up your current contacts and calendars from Outlook and from iCloud in Outlook to .pst files
2. Remove all 32-bit Office installations, including msAccess runtimes
(msOffice installers insist upon 32-bits if there are any 32-bit Office components installed)
3. Reboot
4. Install 64-bit Office including Outlook
To force this, you may need to specify a config.xml file
See the attached .xml and .bat files show examples on how to specify the bits for the
installation, as well as how to exclude specific Office applications like Lync and Groove.
Note: these are examples to play with, not a full tutorial
5. Reboot.
6. Install iCloud, but do NOT enable any features yet
This includes Outlook/Calendar/Contacts integration in the final step of the installation wizard.
7. Open iCloud.
8. Turn on Calendars and Contacts
9. Follow the steps in the wizard
10. If there’s no error, go to step 12.
11. If there’s an error, including any of the following, go to SOLUTION B.
– Setup can’t continue because outlook isn’t configured to have a default profile
– Incorrect username or password
– iCloud outlook repair required
12. If you open Outlook at the iCloud ribbon section shows on these ribbons, click Refresh
– Home ribbon
– iCloud ribbon
13. If refresh works, celebrate, you’re done!
14. If the iCloud ribbon sections don’t show, continue.
15. Go to File -> Options -> Add-ins -> Manage: COM Add-ins -> Go…
16. If iCloud Outlook Add-in is available, but un-checked, check it.
17. If the iCloud Oudlook Add-in does not show, click Add… and pick it from:
%ProgramData%Apple InciCloudOutlookaplzod6432.dll (generic path, should work)
C:ProgramDataApple InciCloudOutlookaplzod6432.dll (typical path, might work)
18. Enable the iCloud Outlook Add-in
19. Re-start Outlook
20. If all works, now enable iCloud Photos, Drive, and other features
(waited until now for other features just in case we had to sign out of iCloud while
debugging, which removes all iCloud content and settings from the computer)
——————————————————————————————————-
SOLUTION B: 64-BIT OFFICE — WITH ADDITIONAL FOLDER PERMISSIONS
This was required on a PC that just didn’t want to cooperate.
It’s not pretty, and requires admin privileges, some freeware, and some tech experitise. But it worked.
1. Go through steps 1-10 in Solution A
2. Install Nirsoft’s Advanced Run utility and 7-zip multi-archive software, both non-adware freeware
3. Run Advanced Run
4. Choose 7-zip’s file manager: 7zFM.exe for Program to Run
5. Run as… TrustedInstaller
6. Navigate to the iCloud master folder in %programFiles%WindowsApps
As of the date of this post, with iCloud 15.0.215.0:
C:Program FilesWindowsApps
AppleInc.iCloud_15.0.215.0_x64__nzyj5cx40ttqa
7. Right-click on the iCloud folder and choose properties -> security -> advanced
8. Add localPCAdministrators to permissions, full control, for this folder, subfolder, and files
9. Add the current user to permissions, full control, for this folder, subfolder, and files
Note: step 9 is required even if the current user is an admin. No idea why.
10. Apply
11. Close iCloud and reopen
12. Turn on Calendars and Contacts
13. Follow the steps in the wizard
14. This should now work, in which case go to step 12 in SOLUTION A above
If not…
15. Close iCloud
16. In the iCloud application subfolder, manually run iCloudOutlook64.msi
As of the date of this post, with iCloud 15.0.215.0:
C:Program FilesWindowsApps
AppleInc.iCloud_15.0.215.0_x64__nzyj5cx40ttqa
iCloudiCloudOutlook64.msi
17. Run iCloud again
18. Turn on Calendars and Contacts
19. Follow the steps in the wizard
20. This should now work, in which case go to step 12 in SOLUTION A above
If not… I really have no idea

Announcing public preview for Geo-replication for Azure Event Hubs Dedicated
Azure Event Hubs is a fully managed, cloud-native, real-time data streaming service that enables you to stream millions of events per second from any source to build dynamic data pipelines and immediately respond to business challenges. It sits at the center of all the operational and analytical workflows for Azure’s customers – whether they are large enterprises or scrappy startups, enabling them to leverage their streaming data to enable new workflows, all in real time.
Data availability and service reliability are core tenets of a cloud-native service and today we are excited to announce the public preview of geo-replication for Azure Event Hubs to complete our story. Geo-replication builds on and fortifies our data availability and geo-disaster recovery story, by allowing you to replicate your Event Hubs data payloads across different Azure regions.
With geo-replication, client applications still talk to the primary copy of the namespace, but customers can specify a secondary region, replication consistency (synchronous or asynchronous) and replication lag for the data, and the service takes care of replicating the data between primary and secondary regions. When customers need to change the primary (for planned maintenance or forced failover), they can promote the secondary copy to be the primary and all client requests are then serviced by the new primary, without changing any configuration (connection strings, authentication, etc.) on the client application. The previous primary then becomes demoted to a secondary region, ensuring that both primary and secondary copies are in sync.
Geo-replication is designed to provide you with the following benefits:
High availability: You can ensure that your data is always accessible and durable, even in the event of a regional outage or disruption. You can also reduce the impact of planned maintenance events by switching to the secondary region before the primary region undergoes any updates or changes.
Disaster recovery: You can recover your data quickly and seamlessly in case of a disaster that affects your primary region. You can initiate a failover to the secondary region and resume your data streaming operations with minimal downtime and data loss.
Regional compliance: You can meet the regulatory and compliance requirements of your industry or region by replicating your data to a secondary region that complies with the same or similar standards as your primary region. You can also leverage the geo-redundancy of your data to support your business continuity and resilience plans.
Pricing
The Dedicated tier for Event Hubs is priced per Capacity Unit. With the Geo-Replication feature, customers must provision a dedicated cluster in secondary region, and the pricing is calculated over the total number of CUs provisioned. Additionally, there is a charge for the data transfer between the primary and secondary regions. During the early public preview, this data transfer charge is waived.
Which regions support Azure Event Hubs Geo-replication?
We’re rolling out the geo-replication feature across our entire fleet, but at launch you can get started by creating Event Hubs dedicated clusters in the below regions:
US
Central US EUAP
Europe
Italy North
Spain Central
Norway East
