  18. #SPDRstatus: Updates are complete for Sunday 2026-02-22. Mars is in the middle of its weekly RAID consistency check and is not rebooting. Since it's not doing anything of particular importance, I'm inclined to let it go and reset it Monday.

  36. #SPDRstatus: If Zoom seems like it's not starting for you, it's probably already running. Look for the icon and right-click exit. Verify with "ps -ef | grep -i zoom"

    It seems less likely to get stuck if you use the "back" (left-arrow) button and begin with the "sso" button (where you specify uiowa as the domain).

  39. #SPDRstatus: By October ITS will phase out use of SMS and phone calls in two-factor authentication. If you can't use the DUO app on a smart phone, you may be able to get a hardware token from the ITS help desk. See me if you need help.

  42. #SPDRstatus: It looks like we will have to individually buy a license for OWL, a commercial plugin for Thunderbird. See the instructions at beonex.com/owl/. I used my [email protected] as both username and email address and things appear to work. In tests, "From" still shows [email protected].

    10 Euro/year ($10.85 when I did it)
