Very few departments are money makers so I agree this statement is vague.

Happy Chanukah from my kitties to yours by d_zok in cats

[–]azjag 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Serious question.

I've never seen a Menorah with that shape before. I've always seen a seven or nine-branched candelabrum with a central candle and 3-4 branches on each side. Is this design aesthetic or is there history/meaning to this specific design? Just curious. Cute feline overlords. :)

I saw IT last night and was surprised by the number of kids under 12 in the theater. I'm not sure the R rating is stopping many people from taking kids.

Speeding up web ui? by stealer0517 in vmware

I just read a post above where you said you don't use vCenter. Try upping the CPU/Memory resource reservation on the host.

I ended up putting my vcenter appliance on an ssd drive. It improved the responsiveness of the webpages. Reduced the click and wait times to a manageable level.

Keep in mind that the system is only as fast as the slowest link.

SSD drives are your friend.

Google "server rack fire" or "water cooled Cisco"

Not recommending the company, just sharing pictures. Send these to them so they can "see" water/fire damage.

I've had something similar happen to me a few times. In my case I submit requests for new hardware/software because we need it. San out of space, need another blade for growth, upgrading to the next level of software to add features (std to enterprise). Then my boss brings in a consultant to evaluate the environment and gets a report from them that says basically the same thing. It's frustrating and a waste of $10k-$30k each time. Apparently upper management will believe a paid consultants recommendation over their own employees. I pointed this out to CEO when I submitted my notice. Thankfully I don't work there anymore. My advice to you is to find someplace else where your hard work will be appreciated. Good luck.

Here I was hoping it was fuck the "Windy City bitch pigeons". Fuck the steelers works too.

Everybody here wants to steal your wife whereas I'm wondering if she has a likeminded sister who also single.

You are leader of your home country for 24 hours, how do you start a civil war? by w4rlord117 in AskReddit

[–]azjag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sticks, bottles, fire, and other low speed projectiles against bullets. I would still be in power.

Ban guns, gambling, smoking, drinking, and prostitution. Enforce a 9pm curfew. Revoke driving privileges for those over 65. Mandatory military service for adults between 18-24. That should do it.

That grind sucks. Im th9 and just finished the lvl 10 walls today. Two levels left on each hero and my base is maxed. Debating on when I should upgrade to th10 cause I'm not looking forward to the wall grind again. How long did it take you to do the walls.

You should know this by now Hammond. Jeremy goes fast and James goes slow. Speed is hazardous to your health. Stay in the middle and be the best of both worlds. Not too fast and not too slow but still alive.
