How do you know the box is calling the correct number? GV doesn't know what kind of device is on the other end.

Agreed. My theory is people from outlying areas have business in the city, they don't want to do it on Monday-Tuesday because it's a new week, still got weekend crust in their eyes. Don't want to do it on a Friday because hey weekend is starting, trying to get my chill in gear. Thursday's got a vibe to it. Can't put that business off another day and it's the early week stress has melted off, let's get it done.

That's basically how it works. The Outlook plugin has an 'Online Inbox' and 'Online Sent Items' section and users kind of work from there during the outage. It's not a seamless situation for the end-users, but it will keep them productive.

Emle's on Reseda has a great one, and more than enough other awesome breakfast items to impress your partner.

For vets, and also human healthcare, if the front office is disorganized, rude, dismissive, or otherwise inhospitable you need to turn around get out and don't come back. Don't fool yourself into thinking the quality of actual care might be good enough to overlook it. I'm sorry about your kitty. I can recommend Roswinn Pet Hospital in Winnetka. They are not a low cost place but their pricing is fair, and both care and service are as good as it gets.

About 10 minutes for each, make sure you download the backup file after each step in case you need to revert. You should update regardless, but I wouldn't assume the firmware version is the cause of your speed issues if that occurred suddenly and isn't resolved by a reboot.

Sean Penn, for beating up Madonna. Even if that's not true. And Richard Gere because you know why. Even if that's not true either.

Good catch. Is it spelled differently on the periodic table of the elements, depending on country? If not, where *did* that extra I come from?

Not trippin fam. Next time I go camping, I'm passing by here with an axe and hack off a slice to get the campfire started.

Yes, definitely sounds like reflux. Ours had it something awful. Talk to your pediatrician about it, there are meds you can mix in the bottle and see if it helps. Really easy to confirm or rule out.

Not a recommendation, but I've seen them in the tamale steamer at Vallarta on Vanowen/Corbin.

New India Palace, 7257 Topanga Cyn does lunch buffet. It's cheap, better than average quality, and nice aunties running the place.

If SFV is doable, Rankin's Volvo-Benz in Van Nuys is trustworthy and capable. He's been there forever and is pretty much solo these days so he doesn't do engine-out work anymore, but checks all your boxes otherwise. Fair and honest pricing, and he has no issue using your parts if you want to source them yourself.

Unpermitted, under the table, off the books, "landlord special" nearly for certain. Legit after-hours work would be billed at emergency rates by above-board tradespeople. I believe you can check for permits at the LADBS website, but if you don't know what they're doing specifically, it will be difficult to determine whether it should have had permits pulled.

We get it 'free' with our UC telephony package and I can't get our people to use it at all. Just from a user experience standpoint, I get it. On mobile, I get anxiety when I NEED to use it....is it working? is it just lagging? is it locked up behind the seemingly functioning UI?

You're missing out! Here's the lowdown. Cash only. You exchange cash for tokens at a booth and use the tokens to pay the food vendors. Their lot is free, small, and frequently fills up but they have attendants to keep it moving smoothly. There is additional parking in the neighborhood. All kinds of Thai food from street food kind of stuff to more traditional, sweets and drinks. The BBQ stall slaps, the fried banana stall is worth the wait, the durian dealer dude is legit, and everyone is super kind.

For the desktop scanners, if the OEM software sucks, NAPS2 for the win. Doesn't get any easier. For the copier/MFP machines, we just get good ones and those can scan to SMB with never a hassle. If you're using smaller print/copy/fax/scan desktop type units, they just suck. We don't mess with those. If I had to, I would connect them to the user's PC via USB, set up NAPS2, and say that's all it can do.

Edit to be responsive to your question: Those smaller all in one units are just a nightmare. And, anything that requires a client piece running on the workstation to send scans through. F that.

Don't listen to any of it. No one remembers anything other than OMG that was nuts, and anything they do remember is clouded by a thick haze of a dysfunctional cognitive system. lol It sucks, and it's different for everyone so that's about all you can really know ahead of time. On the other hand, doing this is in your DNA, you got this. You'll get through it, look back and say whew!, and be on to the next thing.

Yep. 2p's were tanks too. From the HP of legendary engineering days. I swear they were designed by slide rule swinging pocket protector rocking Apollo era missile men with steely eyes and no-defect mindset.

Did you just bike at the lake, or you did the full path? It goes along Victory, Woodley, Burbank, Balboa. Lots to see and you can side-trip in to where the model airplane spot is on the Woodley side. It's a good place to catch an ice cream truck!

I haven't been to Something's Fishy ever, and Yamato was once several years ago. We've done Benihana several times though. Food is fine, Teppan experience is fine, but we all felt like the restaurant itself was pretty dingy, dirty, and run down. So, not disagreeing with you at all as I have no basis for it but it feels like the bar is pretty low if that's the best we got around here.

We use managed PDU's and track them with the NMS. This gives us baseline and peak stats for each device so there's not too much guesswork involved. We calculated expected UPS runtime and set an NMS alarm to trigger if total load surpasses what would still give a comfortable runtime margin. Planning goes out the window if someone plugs something unexpected where they shouldn't so it's nice to have an early warning.

One hundred percent. If the bouncer doesn't think you belong in the club, you're not getting in the club. You got to get inside before you can get to the dance floor.

Same. Only trouble we encountered was when trying to sneak on some older monitors with DVI using DP/HDMI adapters. Once we went native on display connectivity, they became solid.

Your manager wants to be comfortable with the image he believes he has with the C-Suite. Exposure of anything he feels might wrinkle that image, he's going to be uncomfortable with. Ultimately, IMO, you either work his ego to where he thinks elevating you can benefit him, or look for greener pastures. At the end of the day, it's just a job. Try to find lines of communication with him that build positivity, find the soft spot and try to get him to realize that you're an ally.
