It's the only thing driving up their SEO. So they'll probably allow it. That and they don't have any moderators left. . . because they've fired everyone.

what? are you serious? no mods left? wow..

wait, I was rejected from being a "Verified Profesional" but in my alerts it says i earned it, and now I see it.. What gives? lol I looked back, and I didn't even respond to him. Wonder what changed their mind since I only got it 5 days ago supposedly. Whats funny is no activity is shown for the current thread we are blasting.. hahahhaa

Hi William ,

We received your request for verified professional status within the Spiceworks Community but I have a quick question about your business domain. It looks like you used a personal email address instead of your business one. Due to the way we've set this up, we're looking to validate where you work. If you can resubmit with your business domain, we can get that quickly approved. Just ping me if you do that and I'll go look into it myself.

Sincerely,

Sean

haha, I could care less about it.. I think its kind of stupid IMO, as you can tell by what level they are on, if they are worth anything lol.. I'm just curious why the out of the blue approval.. I hadn't even posted around that time, well I replied a day after I got it.. I just find it funny.

I'm guessing they know it behooves them to have more "verified pros" in their community. But yeah, they can get the bozac, I've been in permanent moderation for like 3 years now.

wow.. lets see, maybe they removed you from moderation and let you post freely. lol.. try comment on the post and see what happns.. haha

RojoLoco

@smartkid808 they haven't removed me from shit. I posted freely, and that got stomped out.

smartkid808

@RojoLoco just shows what they are... trash....lol..
The last straw that made me say screw them, was when I had a Spiceworld ticket, and they wouldn't refund me or at least move it to the following year. I got it during the $99 deal, so wasn't alot of money but still. I had to have surgery and couldn't go, no exception for that.. wow..

I still stay in touch with couple GG.. Some of they where great..

So many servers updating. And about time to go play some video games with the kids.

Decided to update my Fedora desktop to F30. But, of course, in the long update process, a customer needs to call me. So while my phone works, I can't exactly see my desktop to do anything while talking to them.

Corrupted database (not related to Fedora, its' an old CentOS 6 box) that I'm trying to recover.

P30 has a decent amount of true zoom, first one of its type to do it. It's a huge breakthrough. That's what put it on my radar initially.

Looks awesome. I told my wife about it. She's in need of a new phone.

Just been playing with setting up SSH access to my home router using SSH Keys, seems to work.
(Reason i need to play with some VPN and routing policies and the guides suggest using SSH commands to do it, not the GUI )

Also getting to grips with KVM now seems ok so far.

I have also been spending quite a bit of time with KVM. I have noticed a big difference in disk activity between 2 servers that have similar specs and the same workloads - one running KVM and one on Hyper-V 2019. The KVM server is using a lot less resources it seems.

Oh, PowerShell! How I love thee! Especially when you give me error messages despite having -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue specified in the command.

Yeah, that's to be expected. Hyper-V is way more bloated. But cool that it has been observed apples to apples.
