Got today's question wrong (I, too, was lead astray by the "[...] you can extend you (SIC) protection [...]" comment so I guess I need a bit of help here. Looking at the "Your Breached Asset Types" screenshot, what is meant by this: Consumers, I presume, are customers but if this is not referring to their email address,…

melonizame, the answer is not in the PDF verbatim, it's true, but it is there. A little paraphrasing has been done in this case.

Before there are a lot of jeers and boos, you need to dig a little for the third correct answer today (10/16, Q12). It is not on the "hint" page verbatim but there is something near the bottom of the "hint" page that, when you search for a certain keyword, will lead you to the answer. That's all I can say without giving…

Amazing that Sir Patrick looks as good today as he did almost 35 years ago. That man got good genes! 1984 as Gurney Halleck in "Dune": At the 2018 Oscars:

Oh, rschroeder, you just had to do it, didn't you? You just had to invoke another EARWORM ALERT!!! Paul Simon - Kodachrome (Audio) - YouTube As I have mentioned, my wife worked at "Big Gold" for 31 years so there was a lot of sadness on her part as she watched the great company being dismantled...literally! I remember…

Thank you for resetting, Yum. And to your request: we don't bite...at least not really hard! ;-)

Shortcut taken and I have to say, mighty impressive! Got a little hung up on the install of the client, though...until I realized the password it was asking for was established during the "Add Device" process. :-P That's that whole "If-it-was-a-snake-it-woulda-bit-me!" type a thang! Boy, howdy is it a Monday!!!

I've seen you mention the Bonny Libations in other threads, RT, and I keep meaning to grab a snort of the Bunny but have not yet. My personal faves are "The Glens" (Livet 12 & 18, Morangie) although I have not tried Goyne yet...definitely need to add that to the shopping list! I'm with you and acmtix in as much as…

For home, it's a new laptop for my wife...you know the one, husbands: it just works, all the time, with no latency, no errors, no issues, no problems...EVER! And, yeah, if I find one, I'll let you know. ;-) Also want a NAS, Windows 10 Pro upgrades for all my home machines and a shiny, new Windows 2016 Server. For work,…

Since we're picking nits, here, might I point out that "used" is also the past participle of "use", not just past tense as in "work that has already been done", which could imply that it is still being used. <SOAPBOX> I know that my replies are unpopular but it bothers me seeing people who get questions wrong crying "foul"…

ebradford, while I hear what you're saying; that "trickery" is somewhat contrary to the learning process as you are describing it (being able to use the tools to obtain a solution), I have taken several tests where it is not just enough to know the content but you must also pay close attention to detail. The FINRA Series…

Congratulations to all the winners!!

Done, Done, and Done!

And, clearly, you missed your calling as a Bard!

Hey, marcoswithanoh, I have a question on Q3 (trying to catch up from being gone). What am I missing here: And yet the answer is not two. Obviously there was something I missed here so I would appreciate any clarification you can give. Thanks.

And I just noticed, in keeping with the Japanese theme, we have a number "6" (Roku) as the first prize. When I was studying martial arts many, many moons ago, my Senpai had us memorize the numbers 1 to 10 in Japanese so we could count off our stretching time appropriately. Still remember them to this day. Now, much beyond…

“The Grammar Police” (sung to the tune of “Dream Police” by Cheap Trick) The Grammar Police they live inside of my head The Grammar Police they mark their comments in red The Grammar Police they are coming to correct me Oh, no!! Because they are waiting for me To make a mistake Every single word They are driving me insane…

Not the first time, trf , and probably will not be the last where an answer is correct but not factually accurate or factually accurate but not correct. For those who might be new here (or anyone else who is interested), you will see this occasionally, especially with subjective answers that involve client requirements /…

You bring up an interesting point to ponder: do C-Level execs hang out here in THWACKland? I agree with you that there are several levels of "geekness" to any conversation about the technical, and the level depends on the person/group to whom one is speaking. Having been a BSA, I fully understand and appreciate the, how…

Congrats to all the winners!

Unlike yesterday, knucklebusted, the answer is there verbatim...you just can't search for it. Read the entire article and you will find it.

Hi, geosca. My guess is that DanielleH is waiting to clear up the SNAFU that happened last Friday with question 10: For anyone who is not showing question 10 has been completed, can you please reach out to me? We've identified the issue and I can hopefully help fix your question 10 status so you're included in Week 2's…

Well said, Rick. I work in the O&G industry and in Colorado, as in other states, we have the dialing shortcut 811, which routes to a locator switchboard for OneCalls. If people are going to do any excavating, they are encouraged to call 811 beforehand and have the locators for the various and sundry utilities (phone,…

I was totally blown away when I took my 86 year-old mother to the doctor's office and there, right before my very eyes, was the all-too familiar "rolling green" background of...you guessed it...Windows XP! And the sunset on that O/S was like, what, eight or nine years ago? It's sad when companies like Microsquash run their…

Speaking of our DoD peeps...question 10:

Thanks, wabbott. For grins and giggles, I used SolarWind's new, whiz-bang utility TracerouteNG (which I LOVE, BTW!) to see where the issue might lie between me and it, and here's what I got: FWIW...

Right you are, rob.collins! In keeping with last month's mission theme, a little "sleuthing" is definitely required today.

Great point, trf. I was merely taking a trip down memory lane. We had a "Hi-Fi" system when I was a wee lad, a Montgomery Wards number I believe, and I remember spinning vinyl on it for many an hour. Your comment is well taken, and while I believe there is great merit in the synonymical substitution, it's simply that I…

Underpromise, overdeliver! That's the way to becoming known as "a miracle worker"! Trouble is, we deal with bosses/superiors/managers/VPs/others who do the exact opposite and "overpromise", and then we are expected to live up to the already superinflated expectations. As mentioned elsewhere, I used to be a BSA and it was…
