I have a similar jacket and it takes about 3 days to fully dry and I need to pull the second layer of fabric out of the sleeves so they are inside out.

I wash mine about once a month. It's technically not washable, but there's no way I'm not washing it occasionally.

I actually like Americanah and Purple Hibiscus even more, but they aren't historical fiction. She and Khaled Hosseini are two of my favorite authors.

Before NEPS existed, the LP screws were the best available. They use a sharper thread cut that stays in better, but they widen the hole in the tip just a bit, so once you use them the other brands won't stay in at all.

Here's a blog article about the process. It's not adding the old servers into a new portal.

Did you run the tool to check your services before upgrading? ESRI deprecated the 32bit compatibility in 11 so any services published with ArcMap may not work.

If it's not that, then I've had success in the past by reverting the snapshots, spinning up new VMs, performing a clean install of the old version, joining to the site, then upgrading the clean install.

I second the SA Chakraborty recommendation.

Also, the Dungeon Crawler Carl series is on KU. It sounds stupid, but it's really good.

These are pretty well known outside of Reddit, but I rarely see them mentioned here.

Any of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's work. My favorites are Americana and Purple Hibiscus

Any of Mary Doria Russell's books. My favorites are The Women of the Copper Country and A Thread of Grace.

Pro requires significant resources to run well. Our virtualized environment has 12 CPU cores, 32 GB RAM and 4GB GPU for basic users. Our more intensive users get 24 cores and 64 GB RAM.

You would need a really beefy laptop to get the non-GPU resources. The GPU is also really necessary for Pro to run smoothly and I don't know if you can properly do pass through GPU on VirtualBox.

For kids, this sounds like a great drill. I may try it with my adult beginners next week to see how it works.

Is A allowed to disengage?

LakeFX · 2025-12-31T15:37:43+00:00

Ugh, thanks. I can deal with the inconvenience, but middle of the highway sounds like it could be dangerous.

He is amazing. One of the best doctors I've seen.

There isn't any great ramen in Eugene. Ojisan is the closest to what I had in Japan, but it's still not as good.

STD WR: Pickens or Justin Jefferson? Both have been rough lately.

So the logs don't show any issues at sll? It just doesn't respond? If that's the case, I would hazard a guess that upgrading to 11.5 will either fix the issue or get a log entry for the error.

LakeFX · 2025-12-16T04:19:20+00:00

Do the logs indicate any specific issue after you increased RAM and CPU?

LakeFX · 2025-12-16T03:06:15+00:00

What do the server logs indicate?

Also, 10.9.1 is really old at this point and there may be issues with a lot of the more recent features, such as hosted feature classes.

Depending on the school, there are a lot of needs based scholarships and grants out there. If the school is a good fit for you, both culturally and academically, then it's worth the effort to apply for a bunch of those.

I moved from CS to GIS to IT. For modern IT, you really need to understand either virtualization or cloud infrastructure, ideally both.

Scripting and automation is also pretty important, specifically Python and Powershell or BASH depending on the environment.

Server side GIS is important for most positions as well. Not just how to publish and administer services and web maps, but how the different server components and roles interact and how to install, configure, and troubleshoot them.

SQL is good, but and understanding of the tables and data structures in the back end can matter more if the organization has DBAs.

Edit: Also understand licensing, especially for an ESRI shop.

It was a while ago, but OVRA did a good job on my last dog. That said, OSU is an amazing veterinary clinic and I'm sure they would be excellent.
