BOB... almost forgot about that MS Boondongle.... I used to have the CD (might still be around) Yellow with a black smiling face.... glad that was not the future of OS's

I think someone does not want to give away this weeks Lego Mystery Machine...

You forgot the worst (Best) .. MANAMAMA https://youtu.be/9ytei6bu7kQ

That question you posed ended up providing a lot more intelligence about our fellow Thwackers on here. It added a depth to our numbers with such a varied background and experiences that attracted each of us to our field. It was quite illuminating. I have a whole new increased respect for so many here who took the time to…

Groundhog Week?

Running it on Firefox and it seems fine....

Privacy and the rights to control what is known and by who is key, although admittedly in the tech heavy world we live in is very hard to keep control over. There are some excellent points in this article, most i agree with, however I think one of the largest flaws today where personal data privacy/security is concerned is…

Welcome to the West Coast! Staying for our 150th Birthday? We love our Hockey - but it looks like Canadian's agree our most important symbol isn't hockey - It the Charter. Something to be proud of after 150 years....…

Nope it should take you to the second page for your THWACK name…. Logan Cadwallader Information Technology Support Analyst Township of Esquimalt | Information Technology Tel: 1-250-414-7124 | www.esquimalt.ca

To be clear, I am not a crackpot aggressive vegan, well I hope I am not..... LOL Your comments about Big Oil and Big Agra are right on the mark, you can also include a great many other big wallet lobbyist (who seem to have deep enough pockets to lobby both sides of our border), but I do have to say things are changing,…

That's Brilliant.... and definitely worth a chuckle. 

jkuvlesk​ Thanks for the information. Great to have it all in one spot I have attended a few of the LIVE courses and find them very valuable to attend. I was wondering if there are any movements to add other LIVE courses on things like * Engineers toolkit (use, deployment, troubleshooting) both standalone and built-in to…

Yeah, same for my environment. Fortinet/Fortigate support would take us to the next level.

French Fries - by the Bucket? I wish.

Xbox's for everyone who got #20 wrong....

That's an awesome tradition... perhaps it is start to my master plan Thanks for sharing

Valid point, being able to see where I get it wrong so I can read/learn more about whatever it is I got wrong. For that matter even at the end of the month long mission it would be great to get an email/webpage with each question and answers, then perhaps some links to learn more? Please don't take it that I am slamming…

Dez​ I think these Shields Down blog is a great addition and conversation starter around a key aspect of many of our Day-to-day operations. Thank you for starting it. It would be cool to have an organized library of security resources that all contributors and commenters have provided...

Think I needed something much stronger than coffee........

Yes contract language is very important, and you raise some solid points about it including the need to spell out responsibility and ownership where breaches, vulnerabilities, and security are concerned, but also other aspects like availability, support, and maybe most importantly an exit clause. I am not a contract guy,…

Until folks on here pointed out about the missing points I really didn't start paying attention, but I did today and am in the same boat.... I saw the email that Admin is going to enter them manually.

I was watching on Slooh the feed was from LA - Incredible. Sadly here in Victoria BC we were under heavy clouds and rain, but the streamers provided a fantastic show.

Dang.... found the only one from the answer that was listed and still got it wrong too... At least I am not alone on this...

I would have missed Q18 as well, if it wasn't for all the comments here. Thanks Gang!...

Not shocked at the training numbers. My experience both within a Municipal Govt and previously at a large international Corporation revealed dismal investment in training of all levels of Staff, and coupled that with weakened Policies that either are not enforced (nor lack any teeth, Management not willing to enforce,…

"Time-Off"? what is this Mythical term you speak of? 

I have a plan.... :-)

Commendable goals...like a shortened version of the "Digital Detox" many folks are practicing. By this time next week I will be in a place where literately 15 minutes out of town there is no Cellular signal and without a Sat phone you are out of comms signals.... Can't wait! Just me, my bike and the bears... :-)
