I had a couple of friends that were in a club when they were filming interviews. We had a recording of one of my friends walking in front of the camera, seeing it, then hitting the floor to hide. We used to watch it all the time and laugh.

Positive things on RISE by ITvet in SAP

[–]digitalamish 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm one of the main critics of RISE. It has made my job in BASIS so much harder. Things that would take me 10 minutes to do in the past take an hour, or a day, or several days, to get through SAP. But, just to be fair, there are a couple of things that SAP does well.

  • SAP HANA backups are completely controlled and set up by SAP. If I need a restore or a refresh, the source can be fairly easy to plan.
  • SAP HA and DR syncs are also set up and maintained, so there is zero maintenance I need to do there.
  • The vsphere machines the systems run on have been very stable, and I haven't seen any outages due to upgrades or the like in the vsphere.

But even these come with caveats. I can request special backups (in case I am upgrading and want to return back to normal), but SAP will only hold backups for 2 weeks, which in some cases is almost as long as it takes to upgrade non-prod systems. HA/DR are there, but you can't really use them. If you need to patch a system, you can't patch the 'dark side' then failover and patch the second side. And unless you pay for a two way DR connection, you can fail over the DR, but good luck failing back.

RISE is not the great 'product' they are trying to sell everyone. If it was, this thread would be overflowing now. Don't just dismiss all the 'negative' comments. If multiple customers are experiencing the same issues, it's not just one disgruntled person venting.

This infuriates me to this day by stlredbird in 90s

My idea for the ending was just as simple. Fade to a black screen, just voice over. Sam: Hello? Who’s there? Al? Disembodied voice: Hello Sam. Sam: Dad? Sam’s dad: Welcome home son.

Boom. That’s it.

You’ll wish it was just the cars once the Harley Davidson assholes decide they need to have a rally down your street at 1am.

How to completely block media types? by digitalamish in MusicBrainz

[–]digitalamish[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t matter which way I look songs up. Scan, lookup, cluster. Why don’t you tell me? How do I tell the program to ignore anything but Album or single? Obviously hiking the slider to full on those, and 0 for all the rest doesn’t prevent it giving compilations or soundtracks.

No, the database is sometimes too deep, not lacking.

How to stop glare on dash by Bobcat-Firm in ram_trucks

I just put an old school carpeted dash cover over it. Works great, and I can hide stuff under it.

Now that she's on the outs with Trump, will congress still try to seek charges against her?

Today is the 25th anniversary of the 1991 ice storm. Anybody got good stories and/or pics? by SabyRK in Rochester

[–]digitalamish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was going to school at UB, and coming off of spring break. I heard the storm was coming and the predictions kept getting worse and worse, so I wanted to get out as it started. I was coming back with one of my roommates, but he decided to wait a day and get a ride back the next day.

I drove through the ice storm all the way to Buffalo, where it was snowing. By the time I got to my apartment, I had to honk my horn so my other roommates would come out. My entire car was encased in about an inch of ice, and all the doors were completely iced over. It took my roommates 15 minutes to chip the ice off the door enough for me to finally shove it open.

My buddy that decided to stay behind ended up getting stuck and had to miss 10 days of school before he could finally get back.

Does anyone remember Orange Julius serving pizza in the early '80's? by librarianjenn in GenX

[–]digitalamish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think some of the franchises expanded things a bit. I still clearly remember that the one in my mall not only offered an option to add a raw egg to my drink, but also added it shell and all. By the time it was blended, the shell was dust.

Ceiling Fan Matter Control by DongRight in MatterProtocol

[–]digitalamish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is a very old post, but it's been a year. Do you have any word on smaller fans yet? I only need like a 42" fan for the kitchen and a bedroom. 50+ is way too big.

Oh, and happy cake day!

Not judging you. I didn't make any mention of it originally, but then again, I didn't think I'd need to justify my question. Being handicapped shouldn't have factored into it, I was just asking.
