All of that crazy traffic brought in a big boost in unique users for the day. Up several hundred users over a typical day!
-
I'm looking at all of the hot topics on ML and I was surprised by the ones that make the list, like this one.
I never even realized this was such a popular topic. Granted there are others with way more views. But damn that is impressive.
-
@DustinB3403 oh yeah, that one is crazy busy. Just not all at once, slow and steady, you know.
-
Updating our MeshCentral install.

Well - FFS....
We have identified your trouble to be affected by a fiber cut that our crews have been working on since 8am this morning. Work needed is advised to be in a swampy area where they need to replace a few poles and approximately 1200 feet of cable. Crews remain on site at this time but we do not have an estimated time for repair yet.

I need to make some coffee. I keep writing instead of making it.
You both don't use that ******* coffee script of legend? Why not!?
Doesn't it need to be updated for 2019?

I hate when people report an issue but hold back the OBVIOUS necessary information to help. They always do it via chat and make us do 10x the work to pry the info from them as it takes to fix it.
In this case, someone with an email problem we can resolve in seconds, if only they'd tell us the email address in question rather than stating the generic "someone is having an email issue" and not ever telling us who. Intentionally cryptic just to be a pain.

Are we talking about Microsoft? Because they've done messed up enough today already.

Is there something special about how she does that? And why is Rose not yet on ML?

Chicago River when I was walking to the station

Cold. Tomorrow even colder, plus wind from hell. Not sure if I am going on site yet or not.

watching the weather and my stock tanks. Hoping my heaters hold out.

Updating our MeshCentral install.
I'm either getting updates applied emails because of Fedora installs or updating MeshCentral.
I wonder if there's a way to check for a new version and if available, run
npm install meshcentral
and then send an email of the results? -

We will continue to work as safety allows and provide next update in about 2 hours
