All I can say is that I will be very disappointed if there isn't at least one question about Rob Boss.

Your addiction to thwack points is only slightly healthier than meth or heroin.

Looks good to me. Thank you for fixing these, DanielleH‌!

Dino was great. Protector for the kids and I remember he was a great lie detector for Fred too. Kept him honest many times.

Oh well. I didn't really want to be in the running for a really awesome portable HDD! I needed to make sure to give the rest of you guys a better chance to win.

Congratulations winners!

I predict demand that, in 2016, the thwack store have bacon! Bacon bits, bacon in a can, Bacon Of The Month Club...

Nov 26 is weird. It totally depends on the tomato or is it the potato? Or maybe just the developer. I've never heard a consistent answer from anyone to say it's authoritative. I'd like to see a citation, so I guess I'm going hunting for one on da interwebz to see if there really is one. App-ee, or eh-pee-eye spelled out.…

IT JOE, the REAL, REAL AMERICAN HERO! Now IT JOE needs an anti-virus battle tank, complete with assorted selectable computer guided rockets, specifically for HIPAA, JCAHO, PCI, and FERPA compliance! Tank also includes powerful main cannon cable management cablethrower (effective kill radius to 400 meters), a universal…

Aww, who needs a silly little Loot Crate anyway </facetiousness>? With all the points I've been racking up on missions and contests lately, the whole store is my prize box to choose from! <seriously> Congrats to the daily winners!

I think education is an important part of employee retention, but the emphasis is on "part". Those who are frustrated with investing in an employee can choose to be frustrated or they can re-evaluate their investment in another person's education and edification. Having been a post-secondary educator for the better part of…

And you and Flipper have balanced the Congressional budget and planned the next 10 episodes for the studio already? Way to go!

I didn't actually see hardware or physical security mentioned in this article. That's why I got the red "X" of death. I respond to healthcare compliance audits annually. As the article says: * “Compliant” does NOT equate to “secure.” * simply applying one or more security solutions to your IT arsenal will not inherently…

Love the animated logo change!

Well, I didn't rush through it. I just don't really know what I'm looking at here. I am new to this whole subject. I've been immersed in learning enterprise backup (NBU) and am a hardware guy mostly. I'm only now getting into the software, O/S, services, VM, storage side of things, so it's a lot to take in. I use NCM and…

Dog can hit delete and confirm it with a swipe of the tail, eh?

Or not permissible in your environment

Let's run a pool then. 2,000 Thwack Store Points to the closest without going over. In the event of a tie, first one to post their answer wins. I say four times.

They had a few at CES about 3 years ago. Very cool. I wish they would have come to market last year. I would have bought that instead of my 2008 Impala.

Congrats to all of this month's winners!

And that amount of work is very appreciated! She's very responsive to requests for help!

You are welcome, but I don't understand why you are calling me the object of a geologist's affection. That's what my wife calls me, although I suspect she thinks I am that dense.

Not inappropriate for Q.10 either. :-)

I'm by no means a dinosaur, but my first experiences were in the 80's. My first work on a computer was my TI-99/4A. Then in '87, in the school computer lab, we had some IBM computers with no hard drives. You had a 5.25" floppy drive and you had to switch between DOS and your program disks because the computer would forget…

wbrown - Looks like it was in how I was wording my search. DanielleH - Thanks, I found the right freeways to Fargo ;-)

If that's the CIA's predecessor, yes. She said it was a very boring job.

Woohoo! Only 61,000 points to go until I can get a Solarwinds mini fridge!

wabbott​ and Thwack team, I just wanted to say I'm very impressed with the prize packages! What a great start to the New Year!

Bwahahahahaha!!!!! maria.bungau‌ DanielleH‌

Oh yeah, Don't forget, Dungeons and DNS, and Chutes and Spanning Trees, and SysAdminOpoly!
