Supposedly it will be my turn in another hour or so.

It was short but intense. Doesn't look like there is any damage, but fingers crossed for your local power grid. We got lucky.

Edit: now there is about 6 inches of standing water on the bocce ball court.

CPU uptime metric on Windows 10 1803 task manager = incorrect or broken.
Just rebooted two computers, logged in, check this timer. One still says 3 days uptime.
One still says 2:21:xx:xx.

Could it be related to the fast startup setting?

I am pretty sure that it uses the hibernation file, so it being unplugged wouldn't matter.

I'm having fun dealing with billing and "office work" today. Very necessary, but not my favorite.

One of the golf courses we support had the kids working at the pool just leave everything open in the rain storms over the weekend. The magic smoke got released for a computer that got a good soaking. Somehow, the other one was still working.

Just finished softball game and now posting my small but useful powershell script for default Redirected printers in Server 2016, which if not done you get to use the Microsoft Print to PDF printer....

Thanks @wrx7m ever since my PC got 1803 it immediately goes into advanced diags upon boot up and I have to shut it down, then reboot it to start it up. Fast startup has killed it in the past so I hope this will fix the latest MS stuff up.

Wondering who the imbecile was that convinced the world to stop placing LEDs in Num Lock and Caps Lock keys was.

It's a toss up between intermittant mouse pointer movement & not knowing if your number / caps lock is on as to which is the most annoying thing.

Not a big issue for us, but just means we are about to get a lot of calls coming in once people get to site and start running credit cards.
