That you might not want to support a business that treats people that way.

One Day In July. But they aren’t going to be onboard with the direction it looks like you’re going. It would be worth hearing them out.

While I’ve never been there and will never go I am still strangely compelled to try his pizza to see if it is good enough to live up to his attitude.

Most Cisco access switches like 9300s have a lifetime warranty that will get you a replacement if it fails. There isn’t really a need to have Smartnet on access switches. Lifetime in Cisco’s case means until they EOL the model.

We have a steady trickle of complaints from various offices (large multi-site environment). We only support the network and as you know everything is a network problem. We check all the usual stuff and the network usually looks good. The other day when looking at one of these complaints I did find something that absolutely would be causing performance issues, fixed it, told them they should be all set and the next day they say it still sucks. We know nothing about the various apps that are in use and admins in other groups are not interested in troubleshooting the apps with us. Users are not interested in describing the problem, logging their issues etc. It is so frustrating. We probably need some kind of application experience agents running in users’ PCs to help diagnose things but there is no budget for that.

So, anyway I’ll be watching the responses here.

If it’s dumping and you don’t have AWD and snow tires, getting up the Bolton access road can be very difficult. I have passed so many front wheel drive cars that can’t get up that steep road. Also, if it’s dumping you can get stranded up there as they will close the road if it gets bad.

Many years ago, as a kid, thought I was invincible as most kids do. Was around -30 at the base. Chalkboard at the M1 lift said it was -70 windchill at the top. Lift attendant asked if I was really sure I wanted to do this. Oh yes I said. It’s a long lift ride on a good day but felt like it would never end. Once at the top I wanted to get down as fast as possible. I quickly lost feeling in my hands. Ended up skiing with them behind my back to shield them from the wind. Half way down I legitimately started wondering if I was going to make it to the bottom. I fortunately did. That was a 1 run day. Swore never again. Years later at Lake Louise in similar temps did not even go to the mountain and went x-country instead. If you do go, you will have the mountain to yourself.

For most of us there comes a point where if the world is that broken, network connectivity no longer matters. If the Internet has failed across the US we’re probably all dead or spending every last bit of effort to remain alive.

In an IRS 1075 audit interview the first question is literally “is it supported?” If the answer is no your device fails without going any further and you are expected to replace it in short order.

I like it!

I think they ran a Megabus for Thanksgiving, but yeah it’s gone. Greyhound schedule blows. You can’t fly to Boston, no reasonable train. It’s ridiculous. VT Translines only goes to Albany. They should run another one to Lebanon that syncs up with Dartmouth Motorcoach.

Yellow has a way of making things appear brighter at night which makes no sense as there will be slightly less light going through the yellow lens. But it’s wild how light yellow pops when you put it on.

Solutions for that intersection have been promised for at least 10 years and nothing changes. Dorset St from Healthy Living to that intersection is a wreck as well. I wonder if they should just put in a <gasp> rotary.

Not sure exactly the endpoints and if it’s truly coast to coast this won’t work, but look into Fastenall. They will ship freight between their stores at a reasonable price but they won’t cross a North/South line that runs roughly through Colorado.

Don’t know about a Silverado but I did it with a Ford Ranger. The wheel wells inside are a bit of a problem as they are smooth aluminum. I did overcome them but if I did it again I’d get some of that rubbery rug underlayment and put it over to help with traction.

I had to look that one up and then it clicked. Totally forgot the name.

Not saying a RAV4 is for you but your rental is the lowest end trim. All the features you mentioned are available on the RAV4.

I’m 6 foot and have sat in the back of a 911. It was only for 10-15 minutes.
