The question asked specifically for ESX servers and you can find that info by clicking the right stuff. Yes, you do need to know what a host is but that's about all. Er, at least in my opinion. I thought it was straight forward.

I'm not positive there's a youth movement here that's having any significant impact. Samwise beat Tina, Doc Brown beat Willow (not the peck, the girl) and the defining moment, I believe, is when Shaggy beat the insanely popular Morty. That's a nostalgia vote if I've ever seen one. Meh, looks to me like it's pretty even…

Someone mentioned it upthread but: Ctrl+f for some key words and then you'll have to click your way to the answer from there.

From my recollection, yes. I can't, of course, confirm whether I answered before or after you, however.

So ... I got it right the first time around and, since there was a mistake, I get to answer it again? Seems fair ... EDIT: In case the sarcasm isn't apparent, why should folks be penalized for someone else's mistake? 

This is what did display: The board wouldn't let me add this to my last post for some reason.

I thought there were some deer outfitters that made you shoot a hog before you could shoot a deer. Not sure, though. But yeah, if you want 'em gone don't charge folks. In most states they're a nuisance animal so there's no season or bag limit. It's really unfortunate that so many landowners have monetized hunting, though.…

The Hint clearly spells out two distinct penalties: Fines and Civil money penalties. Why make the distinction if the two are not, well, distinct?

I love the Custom Properties field. It's allows me to do some real tuning to ensure the right people get the right alerts and reports at the right time. 

... maybe. I mean, if you look closely you'll even see that the Xs are all lined up perfectly! So maybe not ...

People said they got it right (myself included, though, admittedly, in a roundabout sort of way). Meh ,whatever. Spent enough time on this today.

*sigh* If you don't know it's compromised and you still trust it, it's trusted. Once you know it's rogue it's no longer trusted. The whole point is that you think a device is trustworthy and it isn't. That's how a trusted device can be a rogue - you don't know it's rogue. It's, like, a reason to use the product or…

I literally guessed. Sure, it's one of the most common ways to increase performance but it was still a guess. And why did I guess? Cuz it was taking too long to click around and find the answer. I looked at the config and couldn't see anything. At one point it was telling me there was one difference. When I tried to click…

Man, I can't do IPAs anymore either, lol. I was into them before they got super popular and I burned myself out back then - and that's unfortunate because of all of the new stuff they're doing with the style. Now I really only gravitate toward porters, stouts, imperials and scotch ales. The occasional Belgian and wheat…

It almost got me but I caught it right before I submitted my answer.

I was able to get it correct but the answer can't be (exactly) found with Ctrl+f. Had to do a little reading, a little interpreting, a little extrapolation.

For the DoD peeps: EDIT: The demo requires some clicking to get the answer. This, of course, is the result of said clicking. 

After re-reading the question I have to disagree with the assertion that there is something wrong with the wording. In fact, upon revisiting it I found the answer to be readily apparent and I can only wonder why I spent time debating it the first time around. One of the definitions uses one of the terms. That, to me…

Ok, I've been defending the hints up to this point because, well, they were defensible. Today's is not. Just not a good question/hint combo.

Thanks. I was trying to explain what I found without giving too much away. Some folks really don't like it when you reveal too much. 

Can't believe I bricked the first question, lol. That's what I get for tackling it first thing in the morning, I guess. Oh well, if there was a month for me to miss a question this may as well be it. I am so, so not a Harry Potter fan. 

The answer is definitely obvious .... unless you're in the Finance department. 

See: * Civil money penalties Definitely a listed penalty, definitely doesn't appear as a specific answer. There's only one correct choice.

*sigh* One more attempt at a hint: If the answer is not somehow related to a Solarwinds product, it's not the answer. No matter how good it sounds, no matter if it's what you would do, it's not the answer. Remember where you are and what the underlying purpose of these missions is.

Absolutely. I verified my mouse-over by clicking the host. Definitely a good question cuz, for me anyway, learning by doing is faster than anything else.

Exactly! I'm actually engaged this month after a couple months of "oh well, I guess I'll look at the mission". It's a refreshing change.

Yep, it's there verbatim and right at the jump.

Trek. Any universe who's best heroes can be defeated by a Z-Pack and some OJ isn't any universe worth hearing about, IMO (srsly, midichlorians?). **This post was written for entertainment purposes only and should not be used to take offense.**

If only we could have both ...
