Happy Birthday to @NerdyDad

Thanks. 35 doesn't look too bad on me.

Still setting up my Varidesk. Will post pictures once all is setup and cleaned up.

Migrate our test ERP environment into production. Saturday morning, flip handheld scanners and terminal stations to the new environment. Migrate the changed data. Monday morning, arrive on site at 0500 local time. Its going to be a really short weekend.

Dealing with yet another Comcast outage.

One of my favorite questions from On High during a Comcast outage was "when will it be fixed?"

Been on a lot of calls this morning.

Been on my feet all day.

I'm Sorry to hear about that.

Ehh, about typical. When you're the only IT person in the entire facility, it comes with the job, along with ~200 computers and keeping production going.

Listening to Du Hast - Ramstein. Everyone needs a little Ramstein to star their day off

That's kind of like waking up to a brass-knuckle punch in the face.

Oracle charging money for Java SE going forward.
https://www.java.com/en/download/release_notice.jsp

That might not be the final nail in the coffin, but it sure leaves a big gaping bullet wound.

Maybe more of an incentive to get rid of Java. That may be Oracle's end game.

ALL FREAKIN DAY!!!!

That looks like a lot of boss/employee relationships around here. Boss being the pinata and cat being the employee.

Working on my vacation.

That's not good for you or the company

I had updated Veeam B&R to 9.5U3a and am having problems getting consistent backups ever since. I've tried calling support and they never got back with me as to the problem. So I am reverting back to 9.5U3 for the time being. 3a is not really needed for us right now as vSphere 6.7 is not in production for us.

@scottalanmiller said in What are you listening to? What would you recommend?:

Just me or does Nine Inch Nails sound way too much like middle schoolers.

That's really the only time I ever listened to NIN. Middle School

@jaredbusch What do you mean by this?
Take away their tax exempt status? Take away their members' right to vote?

He means that, if people will quit giving the churches power over them, then they would dissolve away.

@scottalanmiller said in What did you have for lunch or dinner today?:

Fuzzy Tacos tonight.

Sounds like a Strippers bar.
