My SWUG experience as a presenter in Chicago 2017 and just an attendee in 2018 were both great. The most valuable thing is the conversations that the presentations trigger among attendees. You have people with a myriad of experiences novices ask questions that experts have not thought of before and experts know tricks that…

Phishing vs Fishing?

Congratulates simpsodi​

1. Monitors, Laptops, and PC's go back to Dell at the end of their life cycle. 2. Servers, storage arrays, and printers get put into a bin and then get processed by a reclamation company. All managed by our Help Desk manager, so I am not sure which vendor he uses. 3. If the new SAN is large enough then it can go back to…

Congratulations to ned1! and mabernard!

It is wonter...sweaters can hide a shirt all day until the photo shoot.

Congrat am3!

Not Whining but just realized I got it wrong because of a dyslexic error, even after watching the video a few times. It is just a game and it is a very welcome break from the daily routine.

This is not the t-shirt you're looking for, but here is Thursday's picture. Didn'tget to it before thwack went down for maintenance.

So is the goal for jennebarbour​ to do at least 8 next year! At that rate she will be in competition with GrammarGirl Thanks Leon adatole​ and everyone else who contributed.

Done

I tried to step up to the game of @"KMSigma.SWI" and @"adatole" , but I totally neglected to mention the custom MVP Raspberry Pi case from SolarWinds on the top of my desk! Oh yes and the UX Bandana in front of the VCR. [View:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWXpB8Qb2LM&feature=youtu.be:200:150]

For those who did not catch it PI TRIO CURTSEY is an anagram of IT Security Pro. Best I could do in a short amount of time.

YA! All green this month. Happy #SysAdminDay everyone. [​My wife made these for our team at the office today. Black Bottom Cupcakes.​]

adatole What about phalange? As in the following: Thwack Annual December Writing Challenges, Puts much wear and tear on the distal phalanges, As I eagerly peck out each word, Trying not to sound like a nerd, The text looks like alphabet soup, And the critiques I do get from this group, The theme can make it a challenge,…

With all the complexity and difficulty these give all of you I can understand if you hate me for saying this, but it would contribute to the highly competitive nature of these missions to have a counter showing the number still in it. Something silly like this: $Mission[$CurrentMission].Counter = 0 IF…

Good week. Even if I messed up on one day. Of course it had to be on Patrick's question. I came so close!

I have seen a data ELF since Solaris 2.0.

@"dhaldeman" Spot on that! Interesting to hear when Brian Cox discussed time on one program that currently there is nothing in physics that says things can't happen at once or go backwards. But in our instance of the universe there are those pesky laws of thermodynamics that seem to hold and give time's arrow a particular…

Got distracted at the end of the presentation by some work issue and didn't catch who won the $100 today - anyone know who?

I got rid of ALL my old skinny ties! I had so many of them...

In the early 90's as I was working as an Intelligence officer and part of my work was programming and maintaining some local Unix systems. On day several members of my team had received a number of ruggedized laptops and storage units which they asked me to setup so they could used attached to the network and while…

There is a new free tool under the Customer Portal that integrates THWACK Contest/Mission results into NPM. It is called “Goody Goody” by the Thwack Pack.

Congratulations mimcginnis

Thanks

A gentleman that works with me wears a dress shirt and tie every Wednesday. We always joke with him when he would meet with an outside client that we didn't know what day it was because it was the second time in the week he wore a tie. I wear a shirt and tie very rarely but it does changes ones behavior slightly. Over the…

It is Friday so I would like to whine about today's question.
