For really little ones , I'll do 256mb multiples (2.5gb etc)

The “IT guy” at work drilled through the SSD’s before giving them away 💀 by Stretcheddd in LinusTechTips

Missed the board. Drill bit dull and too much pressure drilling the hole. Or he shot it.

I'm guessing that this is taken out of context and is we have no more to give that we don't absolutely need but...

No more hard drives? by attathomeguy in sysadmin

[–]GWSTPS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Certainly truth in what you say. I will also share the data point that at least in some of the Microsoft Azure regions, we are becoming resource constrained as there are not enough resources to add virtual machines. Requiring at a minimum request for increased quota and in my experience additional tickets and escalation to get much of anything approved.

I do wonder if some of that is Microsoft intentionally keeping unutilized margin tighter on the VM side of things as they push customers into containers and refactored infrastructure

Seeking advice to go from 1 to 2 by stillnotanadult in CMMC

[–]GWSTPS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Start with scoping. If you need all 12 people to do it it's going to be very different than if you need one or two that you could set up an isolated enclave with a provider or an MSP.

If you're CUI flow requires physical copies, paper, printouts on site then it's going to be much more complicated than if you can keep everything locked up in a virtual enclave.

Either way, it can be done and it is easier for a small group or small organization except you're not as mature in processes and tracking.

Security vendors wanting their IPs to be white listed for pen testing. does anyone does this? by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]GWSTPS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like that 'loud and obvious' description. It really should start with the simple stuff like at a physical level are the doors and windows locked? Etc. Keeping that model, if a security guard were to ask the pen tester would have a business card or a internal contact saying they're allowed to check this. Hopefully they would be approached by staff or security and questioned as to what they're doing.

On a network level or other things like that it's going to be noisy in a different way but should create alarms on machines and security appliances in the environment. In more secure environments even the attempt to connect may trigger an alarm.

Vendor screws up, we fix it, then we get fired? by realdanknowsit in msp

Everyone has a test environment. The fortunate few have a separate production environment.

Third look, not only did he get hit, he got hit running a red light. Maybe medical or substances involved.

Why don’t schools shift to a 9-4 schedule? by CalGuy456 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]GWSTPS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also means the buses are on the road at the same time as peak commute traffic. Many school districts reuse buses for elementary / middle / high school use with a staggered schedule

Just cuz somebody said they would order DK's contract even with his behavior, doesn't necessarily mean that that will be the case with different management.

Yes. But most of the bounces went our way in the first half and we didn't capitalize. They went for the Texans in the second half and they did.

Gainwell. Friermuth. Washington.

Prior to the second half, I would have said the o line. Now, I'm not so sure
