Ok, I have to confess, I didn't count the gifs or any other visual expression of creativity.

The lucky winner of a Destroyer Bluetooth Speaker + iTunes gift card is ... isquish‌. Congrats!

Minneapolis/St Paul pre-reg returns a 404 error!

Room for a small one?

jeremymayfield‌, I like nuts. They're healthy!

This is exactly what I would like to be able to do as well.

ecklerwr1‌, you need to vote on which one you think will go to the next round, not necessarily which one is the best for you. As for the winning, it doesn't depend on the number of votes they get.

Hey John, You should have picked 3 possible ways to execute a script, as mentioned in the question. Your answer was correct, but incomplete.

stevenpurkeyitf​, welcome to thwack! I'm sure you'll find this community to be very helpful, and if you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me. I'd be glad to help.

designerfx​, thanks for the feedback. We'll keep this in mind for future missions. Happy Friday!

Elasticity, different pricing models (e.g. consumption-based), and self-provisioning seem to be the keys. Otherwise it's just same stuff, different shovel I do like the idea of automatically increasing/decreasing monitoring. Some cloud services, like Azure, have hooks to automatically provision things, but it's usually…

Robert Browning martinstenner, try again now. There should be only one question with ranking form 1 to 5, and no star rating. Let me know how it goes.

Exactly! We like to keep it festive

That's incredible. I wonder about all the small stuff, too, like all the creative ways it would kill hard drives that were spinning at the time. (Though if racks are just falling over, hard drives are probably the least of your worries...) This is why they build massive datacenters in places like Utah

Maybe this is a social engineering test?

Yes, it is. I wouldn't have assumed otherwise

Ghostbusters is just legendary. Nothing more to say.

Hey guys, Q2 of the Systems track is open again. Feel free to give it a shot.

Hey guys, Just wanted to let you know that I've extended the deadline for the first week's questions with another day, since there was a glitch on the platform hosting the mission. This means that those of you who didn't manage to answer them yesterday still have a chance today, and we will announce the grand prize winner…

interesting

Yes cureant‌, you're right. This is a nice opportunity to see how the product actually works.

I think the word you're looking for is Rogue.

every IT person should learn new one every time.

I totally agree. Many of our users have reported this to our ServiceDesk as an error when they see that the "Include password" option is grayed out. From a security perspective, it is not good practice to include the password and the password proted link in the same mail. Instead I would suggest that Serv-U automatially…

"All is fair in love and thwack missions!" >>I need to keep this one in mind. Priceless, yet not pointless! ecklerwr1​

tinmann0715​, you get a badge for every poll you vote on, because it's possible that some of you might not vote on each round.

Hi there! Great read on Discards! I'm still a little confused if I should be worried about my situation so perhaps you can help. We have two Cisco Access Points on one of our switches and about once a day for a minute, they get up to 2.5% discard rates. The rate seems low and short lived so I'm thinking it's nothing to…

I agree with some of the predictions, others are too iffy in my opinion to nail down right now. adatole‌ - I do think healthcare is an area security will have to become a major focus. Between digital filing, images, and sharing of information, it's a scary prospect. Security is huge in my industry and I'm not really sure…

I always include (*subject to consideration.) in my contracts and (*reasonable effort). If it isn't reasonable then, they have to wait.

Those of you having problems getting part 2 up and running in your work environment, have you considered doing it at home? Also, if you don't have access to the IOS images, send me a PM and I'll give you a hint.
