Bookmarked. Thanks

Got to give them the time frame or tell them "If we don't reboot and do X, then Y could potentially happen and will affect your production by affecting Z". If you can tie it back to business and dollars, then typically you will get a go-ahead for the time frame you requested.

Getting Chromebooks ready for tomorrow. Rolling over peoples 401k's and they don't even own a computer. <smh>

Thursday ends here for me. See yall on Friday.

Or to future proof it all, just run fiber now!

Running of the fiber isn't the issue. It's terminating it that is the issue.

And for a residence. . . really just go WiFi since 802.11ax is on it's way.

If we're so concerned about future-proofing, then why don't we just put in LiFi?

Does it mean full on browser the Android / Google app store and download/install anything you can get on Android easily through there?

That is exactly what they are claiming. Anything in the Google Play store is up for grabs and running on the Chromebook.

I feel the ~not getting home til 12:30, not falling asleep until 1:30 am Getting up at 8:00 am and getting to work at 9:00 am ~ today .

(apparently I wasn't expected to be in until 12:00 N - So when i walked in at 9:00 my boss was both surprised and concerned..)

Oof... If that was the case, I'd go to my office, turn out the lights and sleep for another 3 hours...with bosses blessing of course.

FTFY

Even for those that aren't familiar with Nashville, this is funny.

I am drinking some delicious golden milk

Um.... I'm worried by that name.

@valentina You're going have to enlighten us as to this golden milk you speak of.

Starting the year off right with a few KnowBe4 phishing campaigns. I'm taking over security training from the boss so he can focus on other tasks.

Huh...this sounds familiar.

Just to vent a bit, what the hell is with restaurants having menus without any damn pricing. . Seriously who the hell is going to say "I'll that the whatever" and have no idea on the final bill?

Someone rich like me.

JK I'm cheap as hell and wouldn't tolerate that. I'm a good tipper though.

Let's not start the "tipping" topic again.

My son got Spiderman with Venom for his 6th birthday. Took most of Sunday afternoon to get all 604 pieces together.

Hello,

Our engineering team is continuing to investigate a node failure that is affecting the listed instance. We have attempted extensive recovery efforts to restore your cloud server to normal operations and have determined additional time and resources will be required with no certainty of a positive outcome. You may deploy a backup or snapshot on a new instance to restore service.

If you have any questions, please contact our support team at https://my.vultr.com/support/

Regards,

Vultr Support Team

In other words, its broke and we don't know how to fix it. Its best if you just restore from backups.
