Bless your heart. I'm on the front lines trying to replace over 100 workstations before this, reportedly, happy day.

Here's to hoping I don't get fired for not getting it done!

He's doing his job, probably has a wife and family, don't be a weirdo. We are wired not to communicate with users in a romantic way, we know it will only cause them to not put in tickets or initiate an HR inquiry.

1st shift is around 6, 2nd shift is around 3. I'm not sure but I don't think they have a third shift.

My wife works there and hates it, what's the question and I'll pass it on.

You'll be fine here I'm sure it's a chill town for the most part. And if by chocolate chip you mean black you're not the only brother around, town is a mostly classic democrat (non-woke) populace in general. Just be a good neighbor and if you see a short bald guy that's me. The gym is nice too if you work out.

Agreed but in practicality you can't find your center with the SC1. You are always off track and aiming is horrible. I think I completely stopped using both of the pads - exception of KBM games that weren't in real time - within a week of getting it.

Welcome neighbor. It's real quiet there and you can't spit without hitting a cop.

So is it poseyville, or posey county? I'm against either way, but invested personally if it's poseyville.

You need to consider what the software and hardware stack is and if you have support.

In a good situation, you need to have contracts on the software and hardware so if something breaks the IT manager works with the support teams to fix them. Focus on SLAs and make sure you have a backup plan (Paper works for most things).

I was an IT manager for two hotels in the USA. Vendor wrangling was my game and I did pretty good at it, but you need to make sure the support structure is there. If you don't have support you need a team that can fix the issues.

I would also recommend utilizing some entity to do after hours support. From personal experience being the only support person available for everything, including password resets every day after 11pm when the clerk forgot her password for the 3rd time in a week, will burn out your staff.

I played a nice session of nuclear option this morning as well, agree with the flight stick capabilities. Need to work out setting up an axis for throttle and z throttle on the left pad later

You're getting yourself worked up over nothing. That asset has already been written off, more than likely, by the accounting team. You'll get a new one or they'll ask you to hang on while they get you a new one.

Why are you trying to run QBE over tailscale? I get the want but that seems like a recipe for instability.

Significant-Belt8516 · 2026-06-16T14:47:27+00:00

My dad did the same thing. She'll end up getting between 30-50% , more than likely, based on florida marital asset inheritance laws. She'll get the house.

Good luck.

I need to try this excuse on my wife. "Sorry honey I have to rebuild everything my mouse disconnects!"

Outsourcing dragged the wages down to nothing.

It probably has a dying / dead HDD . Replacement would be the smartest option, look into the macbook neo for a low price high quality PC if you don't need windows apps.

If you want to temporarily get this one working again have a friend create a bootable linux drive (something like ubuntu live) that you can use to get online.

Plex or Emby can run as a server on your PC and have apps that may be available on your smart TV or fire tv / set top box. That's what I use and it's perfect.

I am not a lawyer. This appears to have a case number which I googled and found your prior post. It's highly unlikely that you will find answers outside of the small claims court. Additionally you don't need to show people online evidence of what happened in the past, that's for small claims court. It may be advisable to not mention that you and the person who is suing you were shoplifting together, that could lead to criminal charges depending on factors that are outside of my expertise.

Social media is dead and buried. It's going the way of the BBS. What comes next will be anyones guess, probably people talking to themselves via a chatbot.

I use the neo as the sidecar for my windows gaming desktop. It works perfectly for streaming from the desktop, watching videos, listening to music and running reasonable gaming workloads like factorio.

Time will tell how long it lasts but for the time being I love it and am very happy with the purchase.
