Hello all, again..

My name is Will, Im 19 will be 20 in a couple months, I took a class in Middle School based on Cisco. So I have a basic idea on It, but really nothing further. I have a almost 2 year old son who loves to sit in front of the computer with me as I work, I think ive watched the minion movie on Netflix at least 100 times since my son became obsessed.

The start of my day included Coffee and ML is more or less my newspaper every morning reading forms.I was asked to join ML by My Uncle, who you all know as @Dashrender
Im learning everyday and the more I read, and take part in conversations and the hands on experience I feel my skills improving little by little.

Not to mention making sure I use the right terminology

edit Im interested in sever OS operations as well as Networking ( blame it on Cisco class from middle school) have a little practice in writing HTMI, which has to be my least favorite thing in the world of Computers. One day im hoping to have a job as network Admin or something along those lines.

Me: No we cant see your site online. . .

Customer: But we have internet.

me:Yes I know you have internet. but you are still running Windows XP, and Windows XP doesnt support net frame work 4.2 or higher which is what is needed to run the Command Center Agent (our Remote desktop software) .

customer: what am I paying you for then ? arent you guys supposed to notify me.??

Me: Yeah, and we did.. multiple times actually . however we don't upgrade the OS for free ( not my policy).

Customer: What am I paying all this money for then?

Me: For me to tell you you need to upgrade your OS, and for us to fix your many issues you've had . Everything is well documented and what you are paying for compared to what you get is actually really fair based on your call loads.

Customer: Can I speak to someone else?

Me: they will tell you the same thing... but sure, here's My Boss.

Im ready for tequila.

Update - No one in the house is showing symptoms. No fevers or anything - Doctor said if we dont show symptoms by friday (this week) we can end our quarantine.. SO far So good.

any veterans here?

If so Thank you for your service and happy veterans day.

Made it a year at my new gig 8/9. Amazing how much you can learn and get your hands on when you're not confined to a box your (old) boss tells you to stay inside!

My son's playing in 2 different football leagues - So far they are undefeated -

Today I'm consulting with a customer about upgrading their phone system and fixing online ordering issues -

Happy Friday Eve!

Back to the original Thread -

Heard from the Network company - they also agree 2 APs are too close together and could be causing a lot of the issues here. They will be doing maintenance next week about this to get it resolved for testing purposes.
He is building a map and looking into other solutions, and he talked with the owner and let him know he was engaged and that we were working together to get this resolved.

So we had a meeting to discuss moving forward and my boss made this comment :

"Guys, Dont be afraid to get on to the forum and list servers via email and ask questions. Will, You are really good about getting the question out there and asking questions giving information. Keep that up and dont be afraid to use it as we move forward."

SO Thank you ML for teaching me how to ask questions in an open forum such as this one

@WrCombs That's so awesome!

It is! she loves running away and laughing about it now- easy way to get a smile out of mom and dad

In a customer + vendor meeting (as a consultant) where we are launching 3rd party ordering on a new platform- there are nothing but issues it seems - going to be a long day waiting for them to fix this

Canceling PT for my daughter (19 months old) for tomorrow -

The whole reason is cause she's been slow to walk and was on the outside of that "normal range" - Thursday last week after we confirmed the appointment she stood up and started walking all over the place - There is no stopping her now! She's a walking machine.

Here's how to create a TOTP for a password item in your LastPass vault:
Find the password entry for the site you want to use in your vault
Select Edit
Copy the TOTP from the One-time passcode fiel

Actually this looks pretty easy to set up- after some research

Anyone know if Lastpass allows you embed TOTP to passwords?

anyone know how to if they do?

Today marks 2 years with my current company - Crazy how time flies

@Obsolesce said in Outage 7/19:

This is something a single test would have caught prior to releasing the update...

You'd think more would be implementing automated testing... apparently, some do no testing whatsoever.

Testing is overrated apparently - lol

Y2k in 2024, 24 years after it's finally happened.

@WrCombs Some janky Crowdstrike thing BSOD'ed a shit-tonne of windows machines, from what I read.

That's wonderful - so def not foreign hackers? lol
