@scottalanmiller do you notice any stuttering while scrolling on mobile (be it Android or IOS)? Randomly sliding out the right panel while scrolling..

Damn, I was in class. I would have totally watched it!

Got it solved. I started pointing them at a new server (basically starting from scratch). Still got some inconsistencies but that was resolved by toggling the agent to the new server (after I already pointed it at it). Then I fixed the last couple with a disk allocation mod. What a mind-blowing, super frustrating piece of software.

I read that it was expected to be up before about 30 minutes... Reading news articles about it being down for hours.

I am Jack's skepticism.

I'm digging the cowboy hat and the 37 pieces of flair.

A guy is having issues with his recently ordered server, and xbyte is replacing the whole thing.

Exactly the reason why you don't go with some janky reseller.

@scottalanmiller Seeing the wheels turning. Then seeing the wheels completely fall off...

@scottalanmiller It must be regional, as it's fine here in southern Idaho. Yahoo could be down for a month and the only way I'd know, is from seeing it in news articles. lol

@BBigford Ender's Shadow is fantastic! I've not read the rest of the series because I've heard it is a bit of a disappointment. I've read a fair amount of Orson Scott Card, and his Mither Mages series are decent. "The Lost Gate", "Gate Theif", and "Stone Father" all take place in the same world, with "Stone Father" being a short novella only slightly related to the plot of the others. I've still yet to read "Gate Father", which was release this last October and the third book in the series. His Pathfinder series is also supposed to be a great read.

I was hooked on Ender's Game early. Speaker for the Dead got a little dry, so getting distracted was pretty easy but I want to finish. I heard the series kind of drops off though... I heard Ender's Shadow was out of this world amazing. I also had heard mentions of The Lost Gate. I'll have to check that out.

Has anyone else had issues with the Mango site on their smart phones? I took a screen cast from my phone (OnePlusOne). The site goes crazy sometimes and I can't scroll, it just auto scrolls all over the place. Using latest OS and Firefox.

Wow, that dashboard is sharp!

Plot twist: Someone calls Drobo, saying they've spilled a Dobro on their Drobo and now feel like a chomo from drinking around their Drobo.

@scottalanmiller Seems like more has happened with Hyper-V in the last 12 months, than it ever has in development. I'll be excited to see what happens in the next few years, especially with RemoteFX and VDI (setting up some Raspberry Pi 2's from Amazon for $70, and Raspberry Thin PC download). Tried it out over this last spring in a VMware Horizon View environment, and all I can say is wow. That install has pretty much every remote protocol. You can harden the client by locking out the docks/settings/etc once you're all done setting it up. Not perfect, but nearly there.

Here's what it looks like now. Ignore the eth dialog box, it was stuck there for some reason. The second image is the wizard you run through. It's really easy to set up.

What OS distro is that? Looks good.

@scottalanmiller said in Happy 16th Anniversary to the NTG Waste Watcher Team:

It is a SaaS application used by research hospitals for high accuracy medical and infectious waste tracking, reporting and reduction.

I was thinking of "waste management" like some type of network clean up service... install it as an add-on for Outlook so the user can get a notice "You haven't opened this email in 3 years, get rid of it or have it at rest, you hoarder! Your profile is 50GB."

Hey everyone,

I was doing a test in SCCM and made a piece of software available to all systems. I went into SCCM and removed it from the "deployments" portion of the task sequence, found in the bottom section. After removing it from "deployments", it still shows up in user's Software Center as available software. Any way to force it to remove from user's Software Center so they don't accidentally install it? I've already sent out a mass email saying we're doing some testing, disregard the notification, and don't try to install it. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Yeah, the GNU/Linux people seem to have died off long ago. It was one of those big trends once upon a time.

Richard Stallman died off? .... (joke)

I swear, in EVERY conversation I've heard him engage, he spins the conversation into the naming (GNU/Linux... NOT Linux). I think in the flick Revolution OS he talked about it no less than 60 times.

Man, I would love to go to this. But I don't get PTO, let alone paid travel to super awesome conventions.

I have not had a NEW desktop in well over a desktop

Guessing you meant decade, haha. Not a bad build! I'm very curious to see how the controllers hold up. Reviewers were complaining that the concave shape made it awkward instead of filling your palms like an Xbox controller, feeling very "light and hollow", andbeing pressed into using the iconic D-pads falling a little short, making the experience a little off-putting since you can't use dual sticks (great for FPS game obviously when going sideways/diagonal). Preference though, of course.

That movie also hinted at what a total psycho Eric S Raymond also is with his bizarre explosive behaviour. He's also pretty... pretty extremely sexist and actually not even really that technical, he's more like Stallman. What I do like is him complaining about Stallman, sometimes it's pretty funny what he writes and calls him out on.

I don't remember him being explosive in that movie. Got any examples to refresh my memory?

Well when the interviewer brings up that some people compare open source to communism, something that actually almost never happens in real life, his face turns bright red, he flips out and gives a very 1950s ice America view of life under Marxism. As someone from such a country, it was really strange. It did seem like he was trying to restrain himself.

Haha I forgot about some of those lines. Thanks for the refresh. Been a while since I've watched that flick.
