interesting approach...

Most techs would agree that device patching is a pain in the butt...you never know if your system is going to come back up or not. But you need to compare that with the potential for hackers to gain access to your systems and do even more damage... What's the worse conversation: Hey "Boss", remember when you told me to…

I too am looking to add my IDENTITY to ACCESS the word a day challenge. I will INSPECT each word carefully and ensure there are no IMPOSTERs. I will CODE my FUDs in a semi-circle PATTERN, VIRTUALly. My BINARY FOOTPRINT will LOOP in an OBFUSCATE BOOTSTRAP COOKIE ARGUMENT, but my BACKBONE and CHARACTER will not FRAGMENT into…

well, we don't allow byod devices on our network, and we limit the speed on our guest network to 1 mb/s; on our corp. network, we implemented quota time on our web gateway so you only get 1 hour of "free browse time" if the site is not related to work.

yeah, i received no question text as well and got it wrong! Maybe they're just going to give us all Plants vs Zombies swag!!!!!!

to sqlrockstar​ 's comment - set up DRS rules (if you use vmware) to ensure equal distribution of your intensive sql servers (or any other servers) to ensure they're on different hosts.

No...all Canadian Gov. locations only.

No Cloud (at least not public)...

and everything was coming up at the wrong price! I remember too

it's really too bad that manufacturers create products that have an end of life...why not create a reliable, outstanding product that lasts for 100 years, and sell 1 billion of them, instead of a product that lasts for 3 and sell 1 million?

I miss being off...can I have another holiday?

and definitely base-lining is important...I don't know how many people say OMG, we've had xxx phone calls today, to which I say, well, what's a normal volume - the response is invariably, "i don't know"

rschroeder​ has some great questions...custom and complex environments would be tricky without assistance.

i did the LEM course yesterday - really good class - I learned some new tricks and features...

gotta love thwack...where else can you start a serious conversation about silos and communication, then end up in sand storms and tornadoes...

at a previous company, the IT Director at the time told me a humorous (now, not then) of somebody bending over to pick something up, and bumped the power kill switch with their butt...shut down everything including our AS/400 system...for those of you that may remember, they did not like to be just power killed.... that…

i think the best feature is visual mapping...we customize views for each area/district and each office. it helps us at a quick glance, to see what offices are having issues...and now that we have npm 12, we combine these graphics with netpath services.

Nintendo was my first console gaming system...

wabbott​ hey Wendy, can you reset the survey under my name - I was kicked out during the first page, and now it say's I've already taken the survey... Please and Thank you!

Yeah, their netflix streaming isn't working worth a darn.

Not only is it tricky, it can be disas if you don't pay attention

yes, yes it was...

how come no one said happy birthday to Canada?

at least it said upgrading windows...it could have said "Initiating DDOS attack on EVERYONE" or "Resistance is futile."

I've never seen it...but i like it.

yeah, I got it wrong the second time too...

a very restrictive firewall in front of them should do the trick...

i've tested DPA, and I'm hooked...I just need a few thousand dollars...does anyone want to make a donation?? :-)

i'm jealous...I haven't been out fishing yet... :-(
