What Are You Doing Right Now

General best practices anywhere in IT.... avoid spurious capitalization. It matters in a lot of places that people do not realize (like any website running on anything other than Windows.) Good habits are to always be consistent and not to add capitals in names where not necessary (especially URLs, file names, SSIDs, etc.) because it can add confusion when copying names and can cause interaction problems between different systems. Windows people often run into habit issues when moving to any other system because they are used to capitalizing carelessly - files names often can be "close enough" rather than the exact of other systems. But always working consistently (most UNIX people use lower case exclusively) allows you to move between case sensitive and non-case sensitive systems transparently.

Good morning people!
Coffee time

Hey Joy!
I hope you had plenty of time to drink your coffee!
I had a nice long weekend of waging war with my laptop. Upgraded to Windows 10, then heard about Fedora 23, so I went and downloaded Fedora 22 and played around with it. I couldn't get the NVIDIA Drivers to play nicely on Fedora, so I tried Mint... I was able to ge the NVIDIA drivers going, but the laptop kept hanging... so I switched back to Win10 again, lol.
Note: Veeam's Endpoint Backup apparently does not support Windows 10 right now. I wasn't able to re-install it after I got 10 reloaded.

Now to get on with the rest of the day.

Went back to work today after three weeks off. I remembered how to get there.

Phone call from a client at 7am to start my day. Ended up having to reset 80 phones to default immediately this morning.
Just finishing up breakfast with the kids now.

Nutella for the win!

I think Murphy may be on to something here...
Trying to get Ex Libris Voyager 9 to install on Server 2012... It is not liking it one bit... (odd factor: Works fine on Windows 8.1).

Back from the weekend in El Valle. Getting caught back up on stuff at home.
-
Windows 10 Pro ISO download to USB complete. My three computers don't show any update options yet, yet I know several people who have it already. My dad's computer has it, but fails to install. My brother will have to address it now.
Also downloading an update to my Garmin Nuvi 760,.. huge update compared to previous updates. Needs a 3GB min SD card now, and of course I have a 2GB and a 16GB,.. wow..
About to haul Milo off to the vet,..

Sitting in El Valle, at a table with Paul Chiodo, texting with Scott Alan Miller, wishing I was taking a nap. Scott - good thing you left, Mami made us eat a bunch of food. We begged her to not make us eat dinner. No mas!
