@nadnerB damn...he was more restrained in his language than I'd have been...

@dafyre As in it doesn't really matter? This person is now telling other people to do it as standard to get a bit more processing power for stuff too...like, if your CPU is that bad...

Seems like such a waste of energy - I don't care how much you dislike the other person.

There are spiteful people out there. I think part of it has to do with people getting caught up in other peoples drama. I try to have a good sense of humor about everything and just mind my own business most of the time. I wish I could say all of the time but I'm not perfect. It's tough to not call people out on their BS sometimes (character flaw).

Nothing wrong with calling someone's BS - in fact I think it needs to happen more - if for no other reason than to get people more on the same actual page.

Yeah, currently having a discussion with someone that force closes explorer.exe through task manager constantly to (and I quote) "not get distracted while writing some stuff in a word document" - like;
A. How would that stop you getting distracted.
B. Why do you get distracted that easily anyways, have some self control.
C. It's really not advisable to just force close a process like that repeatedly...

Or is that just me being overly cautious?

I've never had good things happen after force closing explorer.exe. What is the thing causing the distraction? (I can't believe it's actually explorer.)

Yeah, I asked that but not replied yet...

@wirestyle22 Yeah, I love it...my cpu usage etc seems much lower than before, which can only be a good thing as far as battery life is concerned!

Just span up a new win 2012 r2 server to try and break it.

I generally have to listen to something all day. I prefer Music over TV/Netflix. Video just tugs my attention to much. And for some occasions, the music helps me cope with the day (stress).

I'm about to turn on NPR just for some news and the Market / Tech Reports. From there it goes to Pandora for any number of channels... Slam, Techno, Daft Punk, Lindsey Sterling, Maroon Five, and some others..

100% - If I'm watching something (like the DefCon vids yesterday) then it takes all my attention...but music helps me clear my mind and focus more...

@hobbit666 hah sadly yes

anyone a whizz with Pi's?

Cheese Whiz doesn't go with Pi so well..... ok, now that that's out of my system.

I wouldn't call myself a whizz, but I've gotten sensors and LED blocks running on them before. What project are you wanting to work on?

Trying to get my TriPi working on my Pi3, but it's not playing ball

Boots on my Pi1 (and then errors because the retropi is the pi2/3 version) but my 3 just sits on the colour splash screen...

I'm gonna have to check out TriPi. Has it been updated for the Pi3 yet?

Officially, not that I can see (last image I can find is 4.0 - released before the 3 was...)...but I'm thinking it SHOULD work because it's the same base surely..? Just with extra features...

But yeah, it's nice, Kodi, RetroPi and Raspberrian all in one...

My experience with Raspi's tells me it most likely won't run well anyway. Not to ruin your hopes and dreams or anything. I think Pi's are really good at keeping specific things cost effective (like honeypots).

It does run well I've had it working on my 1 and 2...

Oh I missed that, my bad. I'm surprised but happy that's the case. I'll try it out

Yeah, it's nice, basically a Triple boot, but you can switch between each one easily, with native xbox 360 controller support...so you can switch from old school games to new movies etc easily and effortlessly...and use a desktop when you want to...

@coliver If some random person wants to see my junk, they just need to ask...

@Ambarishrh my friend tagged me in that on fb last night :')

@nadnerB http://store.steampowered.com/app/239030/

I've already fixed various printer errors (can we all agree xerox are the devil?)
Setting up a PC for a user after FINALLY getting the list of software they want (just a week and a half after I first asked)
Got a laptop returned by the police and I've got to clean it (physically - fingerprint dust...) and re-image it to get it back to the engineer...
Fix various login issues some of the new people are having (always fun)...

And anything else that breaks during the course of the day...

@scottalanmiller and reduces funding for other more sinister stuff.

@RojoLoco I was once on patrol at 3am...to keep me awake I had my mp3 player (sony walkman) playing loudly to keep me awake...that song came on and I burst out laughing, had to stop and calm down :')

back in work this morning - had a fall yesterday off a ladder (my own fault entirely) so had a trip to hospital (head injury, yey)...but back in today, much ribbing has already taken place...

nearly home time for the weekend!! Can't wait, it's been a long week (and eventful too) and I cant wait to relax and chill (and hopefully the headaches will go away)

Good afternoon America

@DustinB3403 said in What Are You Doing Right Now:

I'm sure it's on the unit somewhere, but I don't see a LAN connection to actually connect to the network.

Just the PoE ports.

It must be hiding.

nope, it's just a multi-poe injector...we had one at the last place I worked.
