I know I mentioned this in another thread but a few months back, I was driving in to work and had stopped for a red light. Upon the light turning green, I started out as did a pickup truck beside me on the left. This is a stretch of road that is four lane and then a right-turn / exit lane forms about 50 feet past the…

Thanks, again, for this, adatole! Looking forward to reading what folks have to say about the "Once And Future Self". And what would this thread be without another EARWORM ALERT!! Dear Younger Me | MercyMe - YouTube

Boy, what a bonehead move...thanks melonizame...not enough coffee this morning.

My late Mother-in-law used to pour her leftover coffee on her plants, and she swore up and down that it helped them grow. No horticulturally based facts on that; just the testimony of a good Minnesota-born, salt-of-the-earth, depression-era woman who loved her coffee cheap and black. She would actually make a game out of…

Yes, thanks Danielle! Nothing better on this site than MORE free points for MORE free stuff!!! But you know, I just couldn't help being taken back to the old school on this mission...ruh roh! Here comes an EARWORM ALERT!!! "The one and only D.R.E. and I gots ta..." Keep their Heads Ringin - YouTube Mos def NSFW!!!

Agreed, we lost John way too soon. I often "Imagine", oiram, what the world would be like were the lives of John Lennon and Jack Kennedy and MLK and Abe (ah, yes, Dion, sing it! Abraham * Martin and John *** Dion - YouTube) no been cut short. "They freed a lot of people. But the good, you know they die young." Glad to…

Sometimes it's good to overthink, like the decision of whether or not to get married or buy a house. But, overthinking can lead to the dreaded "Analysis Paralysis" that we've all (I'm sure) expreienced at one time or another. On several occasions so far this month, I have seen where the THWACK Geeks have made it so you…

Thank you, wabbott! You ROCK! Happy Friday to you, as well, and I hope you have a great weekend!
-
Thank you, Leon and all! These truly are challenging times but I appreciate how companies, industries, and people are "coming together" to help each other out. I have been on a WFH1 (meaning I work-from-home one day per week) for about six months and my wife was OK with that. Now, with me being home every day - as well as…

So Q17, again, requires a little sleuthing. The answers can be found both in the hint and the datasheet for SDD, which is here: https://www.solarwinds.com/-/media/solarwinds/swdcv2/licensed-products/service-desk/resources/datasheets/service-desk-di… Happy hunting! And while some are hearkening back to the Farmer's dog,…

Many international tongues pronounce every letter, but I think French takes the cake as far as dipthongs go ("eaux" for "o"). Nothing against the French language; I think all the romance languages are like that...just that French seems to take it to the next level!! My wife and I love going to Hawai'i and the Hawai'ian…

And, now you gol darn gone and done it! You've prompted another EARWORM ALERT!!! For all you "Deadheads" out there...and for those of you who don't know what that is, ask Alexa! Grateful Dead - Truckin' - YouTube

Careful not to let things go to your head, tk1271... Although finding the "source" of the issue was, indeed, brilliant.
-
Done and done.
-
OK, nevermind...that bug (or should I say "undocumented feature") went away on a new session.

My wife works in the financial industry and she just recently met with a person who is totally without technology. No cell phone, no email address. Trouble is that my wife cannot process an account application without an email address (vendors require it). So now, my wife's client must create an email account in order to…
-
Still going to disagree, Rick...the time stamp indicated in the "Hint" (17:15) actually falls around the time of one of the "incorrect" answers (which Thomas says, verbatim, at 17:22, to be exact). Now, I'm not going to get into an argument with you or anyone else as I went ahead and picked the "correct" answer. Just…

If that is, indeed, the case, robertcbrowning that "'ma'am' is reserved for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II", then someone needs to come across the pond and correct several million Southerners because in the Southern US (and probably other areas as well), one is taught from an early age to use "Ma'am" and "Sir" when…

smttysmth02gt, I am not a DevOps person but as I understand application dependency, it is not just application + node but also has to do with the systems/components on which an application relies in order to function. This could be a node, a building-block component (e.g. .NET), or other pieces. Also, the resultant text…

Ooh, ooh, Meester Kawter, Meester Kawter!!! Sign me up fer dat! Fosho! Hang ten, groovy, boss, bitc*in!! Now, if I put two and two together and added twelve and carried five (for thems of you what knows who C. W. McCall is, you'll recognize the cap doff to "Wolf Creek Pass" there...), I come up with the fact that there are…

Hey, spoonman, congratulations on the new arrival! So what is your take on early childhood developers (not developMENT), as in are you going to get your little one a tablet early or wait until he/she is a little older? No pressure or anything...just dumb curiosity! ;-)
-
My apologies, dive7; I certainly had no intention of misleading. I was trying to point out that the hint did mention "deprovisioning" but that it was not germane to the answer. I will definitely scrutinize my PSAs a little more closely in the future.
-
I applaud you, graeme.brown, for your honesty and forthrightness...definitely some running amok! And, bobmarley00111, you might be correct...Marcos might be AFK for sure. I just hope he's in a warmer climate than here (US).

pony10, from my POV, your comment about Q2 drives home rschroeder's point about those who are "[...]very literal and detail-oriented." Yes, there was a "truth" and a "true"; one was correct, the other was not. There was no spelling error, just a different word that was, if I understand the THWACK Geek's M.O., meant to…
-
It appears that the question test was corrected...just getting to this now and it says EASTEXMBX01v. Sometimes the GEEKS are stealthy in their solutions... ;-)
-
While you are correct, rschroeder, that it is easy to right-click, I was pointing out the change that had occurred. If this was an intentional change, I have no issue altering my processes. If not, well, I'd like to see things back where they were. And you are also correct (later) about "whatever floats your boat": new…

Rich, Question 7 asked: . Trying not to give away the answer, here, but the "servers" in that list you posted are virtual machines...with exceptions. There are a number (can't say how many) of ESX Servers, which is what they're looking for, that are associated with the cluster. All other "servers" listed anywhere in the…

I absolve you of your duties for the day! Now help me put on my straight-jacket....

To paraphrase "Blazing Saddles" "Patches? We ain't got no patches! We don't need no patches! I don't have to show you any stinking patches!" ...is what you're NOT supposed to say to your CIO ;-)
