ReadOnlyFriday before March Break with the SO and kiddos
We do the ROF and ROM (Read only Friday / Read only Monday) here most of the time. Occasionally we'll have to do something on a Monday. But maybe 2x a year do we make any major changes on a Friday.

Reading about RHEL subscription management.

Unintentional post storm walk,… office I was at for training has no power, generator won’t start either… build been down since mid afternoon Friday now.
Walking the warehouse may have found previously unknown roof damage. That’ll add to the Monday stress…

Uhm yea…
They didn’t know. Flat roof issues. They have 50# bags of sand up to hold the membrane down until they can get more time on it.. it’ll likely go to insurance or the investment group … -
We did a show on Saturday with our new drummer... turned out ok. Here's a link to the 1st two songs.

Good news, bad news, good news...
Good news, I found the dea mouse that had been stinking out or storeroom
Bad news, it was in the box of HDMI cables
Good news, only one cable that wasn't still in its plastic bag had dead mouse sticky on it -

battling with my brain for control
it seems determined to just wander off and please itself
I on the other hand need to get some work done -

We ended up having to pay a little for Fed, and got very little back from state. All around close to even, but still enough to annoy the wife.

Refund.... she's used to getting a large refund.
Of course I think we came out real close to right.

My goal is to be even as well. I dislike giving an interest-free loan.

How's everyone doing?

need coffee #2

I've gotten to that point in my career and life that I'm past sugar coating the BS or looking the other way at companies. If your staff is openly incompetent or stealing from you (or the customers) or double dipping in the coffers, I'm just going to tell you. Don't expose your dirty laundry if you don't want it pointed out.

I had someone recently tell me that their CIO wanted to use Vmware over KVM because, and you can't make this stuff up, they liked "working with the biggest vendor."
Literally, they didn't care if it made sense for the purpose, they didn't care if it was reliable or cost effective, they didn't care if it was secure. They literally only wanted to know which product was made by the largest company. No IT factor considered.
And then, as incompetent as that is, with only a single thing to research; with no need to check on features, cost, licensing, support, price, or other complicated factors; they got the ONLY thing that they were considering wrong.
KVM is made by IBM at about $63bn USD. VMware is made by Broadcom at about $21bn USD. IBM is roughly three times the size. And IBM is the KIND of company that should make hypervisors, Broadcom really isn't. But that aside, no matter how insane it would be to consider market cap or revenue of a vendor as the determination of product applicability to a company, they got that one, insanely simple task, ass backwards.
When you are THAT dumb, it is pervasive. If you are dumb enough to think company size matters in some significant way, you are also so clueless as not to be able to determine company size.

I've run into that attitude a LOT.

Yay, Tuesday. That is all.
Things have been crazy around here with Vendors being stupid, and higher ups knee-jerking about "major security vulnerabilities" in apps that we don't have available off-site.
Finally got all the fires of the last week and a Monday put out.
