networksecurityprincess​ in many cases companies need to check a box and/or want a specific tool for "image" purposes. I agree many SIEM tools are big, bloated, require many resources both in infrastructure and administration. As bspencer63​ mentioned, finding the one that fits your need can be tough. Based on consumption…

While automation has helped us, it can also harm us. To use an old phrase "To err is human, to really foul things up takes a computer". The automation is only as good as the design and the input...garbage in, more garbage out. Automation can be very detrimental in that many virii, malware, bots, and such are all electronic…

not the first time an 7 year old posting has broken links...

sqlrockstar Excellent writeup with links to more info on particular points made !!

Agreed on points made by others...be non-disruptive to the business/environment, verify your backups are good and you can restore not only a file/dataset/filesystem, but an actual system as well.

Survey completed!

Agreed !!

Well put datachick​ ! The cross-platform/cross-team mentions are very important in many of todays complex environments.

Ooops...now you've done it. We are Geeks, nerds are a different class.

Agreed, @"superfly" the best thing is to scroll down to the bottom and read through the transcript.

Monday afternoon in need of more caffeine bump !!

Don't forget you need baseline data to make the comparison against to see if you are improving things or making them worse.

Pretty cool ! I need to get down there... I went to Disney Land in the LA area back in the early 70's. Things have changed a bunch.

except that the AI mentioned is not truly Artificial Intelligence as they purport. Granted it is using metrics to help advertising and such and yes it is artificial, but it is certainly not intelligent.

Excellent list a usual. The ad blockers item is funny. Some sites don't work if you have ad blockers...I no longer do business with them.

Too bad we don't have a way to export our contacts and bookmarks.... even better would be a way to rte-import them after the migration.

Completed as well...

I am as well still waiting for my aircar. Although, I suspect the proliferation of quadcopters, LiPo batteries, and smaller/faster processors will make it so much easier. I have considered a gyro-copter as an alternative. But then the amount of controlled airspace I'd have to thread the needle to navigate (3 airports, 1…

Thanks, gives me some stuff to refer to regarding VM performance.

Sometimes I feel that I have to choose something to forget in order to make room for new information...in other words at times I feel I am at capacity and need to clear space within my head to learn new things. Clearing cache isn't enough anymore.

agreed...

congrats pacmanfourtwenty‌ !!

4 minute reflection bump

I recently came across a set of 3.5" NT install diskettes...I thought, "I wonder ?", followed by not gonna do it and tossed them.

silverbacksays​, send me your email address and I'll email it to you.

I would also like the ability to "freeze" the current screen while trouble shooting...

Interesting...I must have missed this 3 years ago. Need to check to see what it works with these days...

I overheard a conversation in a local Best Buy between 2 of the phone reps that Samsung is going to provide a kill option to all the carriers to basically brick the note 7's forcing people to replace them.....

Orion is a timer based state engine. This idea fits into the concept and provides many options to further extend polling windows, maintenance windows, notification windows, etc. Having to create multiple rules for alerting just to account for a number of different maintenance windows (1 for M-F, 1 for Sat, and 1 for…
