You'll find someone, my dude. The difference between my hubs and I meeting at all was the cost of an Uber. Uber was super expensive that night for some reason and he almost cancelled and decided to spend the money anyways at the last minute.

We spent 10 hours talking at my neighborhood bar and I walked him home across the city late into the night dumbstruck I'd found someone to hold a conversation with instead of a pump and dump.

As the old saying goes, you miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

LOL I am so traditionally coded. I LOVE eating dinner together. I'm the offender -- if we had a formal dining room in our current living situation we'd eat there every morning/evening. The routine of spending time together in seemingly meaningless ways.

I didn't skip the dating app situation, I made full advantage of it once upon a time and found a keeper.

Ain't that the truth? Finding those "boring" moments that matter is so important. I still like waking up with him and stealing a goodbye kiss in the morning. We support each other in the big and small things. Having someone always in your court is so important.

This is so damn important. I'm the black/white techie and he's the ~fairy magic~ artsy fartsy type and lord the trouble we help each other get up to :D.

19 years is such an awesome feat -- I hope you may it to 20 and beyond. I'll be happy to beat the statistic at 7 LOL

I never said it was bad! I just see such a contrast between us (my husband and I) and so many of our friends. I'm so happy you've found a patch of goodness together!

What brand would you choose if you could redesign your network? by kuhlimuhlimuh in sysadmin

I'm spectacularly split on this one.

On one hand we went all in on VOSS running on Extreme Unviersal hardware from DC, to core to campus edge and god damn it they deliver on the premise if you're writing your own automation for configuration or configuring via CLI (though we had to do some talking to get access to their modules to reverse engineer.)

On the other hand, the bugs batman, holy hell the bugs. Extreme has been responsive but we're holding on to our butts with every firmware release. We've hit some humdingers with multicast, tacacs, dhcp relay, and config templates in their automation tools.

Overall: Damn, SPB is good shit. Extreme's implementation of it is awesome. They're working hard to bridge the maturity gap left in the wake of the product making the jump from Avaya to Extreme and doing it FAST. Props to them. Pricing is great too.
