What Are You Doing Right Now

Okay, so I'm timing this. I went to look at a thread on SW some time ago. I had a dozen ML posts to read. I clicked the link to SW and went back to ML. I did some posting, read some threads... and then realized that the link had not opened yet. So I checked the time. That was four minutes ago. So it was probably four or five minutes before I noticed that it had not opened.
So we are now on ten minutes that the thread has not opened. TEN MINUTES. And no progress.
I continued and was able to completely catch up on ML while waiting and write this full post and still ... no progress.
Another minute just ticked by. I'll keep you informed...

I don't have these kinds of problems. SW has always been relatively snappy for me... On the East Coast US.

I've heard of a lot of people having these problems. And it is constant for me. It will be snappy once in a while, but days at a time with five - ten minutes to open any page.

It fully timed out and failed at fifteen minutes. Got in with a reload. I wonder if one of their servers died.

I wonder why the difference?

I'm 50% sure that the difference is a load balancer doing round robin and sending me to a working server.

We've heard rumours that they have been having physical servers dying a lot and that can cause this kind of problem. You get long delays with failed resolution when the load balancer has not pulled a failed one out of the rotation yet.

We have this issue here with our load balancers.

I am thinking how liberating it was back in October to go platform agnostic in my gadget world...and this is me when I finally made that decision after being way too patient with Microsoft:

My executive director just told me a story of how they caught an overnight watching porn one time. The old IT guy they had was this russian guy named Boris. I know Boris. Imaging him having to explain this to my executive director is so funny i literally can't handle it. GOD.

I've got some awesome porn at work stories. Well, two, anyway.

I have several stories of emplyee's watch porn at work, none of which end well for those employees.
But pretty funny to talk about....

SW Moderated David is deleting my replies to much of the bull-crap that Robinhood2 has put up... along with others.
Granted the back and forth was a heated topic, I wonder what replies of his he's deleted.

Pun intended, yes I think it is.
Might go and get a work out in first, burn some stress and then get drunk off my ass.
That sounds like a plan...
