Dang there a Yeti cooler that costs 1299$ o.O geesh! https://www.amazon.com/YETI-Tundra-350-Cooler-White/dp/B01BXA732S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1487946076&sr=8-1&keywords=yeti…

I concur... it's lower case (I think) and should be upper case to make it make more sense. This way it looks like the wrong letter.

I'm with you Rick... the best security for a system like this is to NOT use it in the first place!

I like the idea of coming up with an average for how long the LAN -> gateway -> internet-> Twitter REST service delay was going to be so you could send the tweet in advance to try and hit at the exact right time! Pretty crafty pHubb!

I agree there's something wrong with the question... it strictly stated outside of your network NOT inside. Outside it shows 2 on the list and inside 4. I know I'm not blind.

New headset in the thwack store is pretty awesome!!! I like it! One thing that bothers me is that the pictures from my new Google pixel XL 2 phone are too high of resolution to even upload. I have a bunch of pictures of the new headset in the thwack store and it won't let me upload them. I'll try to reduce the resolution…

Yes and I uninstalled the facebook application from my phones and tablets long ago... I hate that thing!!!

Getting rid of old unsupported hardware and software is a big one and also a challenge but we're all doing it... RMF mandates it finally which in the long run is helping improve our network.

Or some really bad BOTS... ie. botnets like the recent IoT cheap device botnet that caused the worst DDoS attack in history!

Just do not touch that cable on the w2k3 server over there o.O!

If it's a web app you can run WPM recording of actual user behavior on regular cycle from across your WAN. Many application are just html5 web applications these days. This will show you actual user perspective stats accessing the applications they use every day over time.

Since it looks like snmp is working maybe try status polling with snmp instead of icmp?

The new Google Pixel Stand 2 also does functions like the Hatch Restore Sleep Sound Machine. You can have it slowly lighten the screen up until your alarm goes off. It's pretty cool. Bill

WOW that was a fun one and it's hard to believe it's been 22 years here... I remember the original thwack! We had these little stick men like characters that more points/levels you had the bigger and fuller your little character became until it was a glowing bright stick man/woman! I wish I had screenshots or snips of some…

WE ALL hate dealing with licensing issues... but it's a fact of life now.

I'm using some of this info now...

I think some people may stay working from home now though. In fact some companies may look at this as a test for way to move out of some cities and have employees support their businesses remotely now instead. In this way it could be one silver lining in this disaster.

Some traps in the answers today but if you slow down you can get it. Bill

They are called a Haboob. It's not a good time to be on the freeway when they hit. That and monsoon rains in the late summer are the worse weather we get here. We're luckily mostly out of any earthquake zone too.

Every time DR/BC comes up I kinda cringe a little...

This works and I do the same thing with DirecTV... I just record everything to the GENI2 and then start streaming it off the Genie after about an hour or so... I skip commercials all the time BUT... get this... there are some shows that don't allow fast forwarding now... not pay channels but some free ones are now doing…

sqlrockstar​ always puts as nice comedic twist and some tongue in cheek subtle suggestion for you to read between the lines which I like!

This chart I found in a VMware doc helps to see some of the differences some is preference too though. Also Solarwinds covers some of things in other products that are also included in VRealize Operations. More can be found here:…

If you can't see the ebook go here: http://www.adatosystems.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/1703_SWI_monitoring-201-eBook.pdf Make sure you read the linux formula NOT the windows one!

Maybe Bill Gates will pop in for a visit!

I think Apple is headed for another fall again although this time it will be a slower crash than the last time. I'm talking about when Apple almost wasn't anymore... before Steve J. came back to save them. I wouldn't count on Intel going anywhere though...

Much better now! I totally agree SEM is much better with the HTML5 dashboard too!

I got the ISC2 book second edition I think.
