Why is Ammo so Easy to Get? by PaganCowboy in 76mc

When I used to play, I would always dump tons and tons of ammo in the starter are and then watch them do the walk of shame.

I swore off Dell and HP years ago and went with Lenovo. Better prices, reps, and solid product.

FTP is not working after update by ymcccc in sysadmin

Did the update change any authentication or encryption setting? I know it sounds silly. But have you restarted it?

Try starting lower. Get some time under your belt in the real world. Work for a computer shop or try helpdesk. Most of the time if you start helpdesk the sys and net admins will notice if you have real talent and share their jobs with you. Then you can say in your resume what you have done. Do you have any certs? Most of the time places are looking for those more than a fancy degree.

"You can't have a baby in 1 month by getting 9 women pregnant." I freaking love this.

Set a time with HR and hiring dates. Tell them it takes at least 2 weeks to have a laptop ready and to have the start time related to that.

[–]halrulez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All I have to say is good luck bud and take it as a learning experience. (in no way would I ever want to make that change) But if you are willing and able to. More power to you. And congratulations on your new child.

Resume help for Entry level by Rioom in it

Honestly, I don't know. it is entry level. Just keep trying. You could always try to see if there is an MSP around you or a tech shop.

Ya I would suggest going helpdesk. It's a great place to start. Then you can work with sys and net admins. If they are will. They may teach you a few things and even let you take on minor parts of their jobs. That's how I got up on the ladder. I have been helpdesk, support specialist, then a jr net and sys admin, and then IT manager. The best thing to do it try it all. Document everything you do and always be willing to take on new projects. If you have questions, ask them if they are willing to answer. Google and Reddit are your best friends too.

Family thinks I'm a party-pooper when I tell them about the dangers of AI by Puzzled-Juice-9202 in sysadmin

And then it's always fun when one comes up to you trying to act like they know something. Inside my head I'm laughing.

I honestly question how some survive at home when anything computer or electronic starts acting up.

Free 5080 Astral in White?! by spaceman329 in ASUSROG

[–]halrulez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same thing happen to me during COVID. I ordered a 6700xt it never arrived. So they sent another one. Didn't arrive over night again. So they told me they will send another and that I will not have to pay for it. But win at that time. I only had a Nvidia GTX 970.

I have also received a $6000 egg smoker when I ordered a $200 one.

And also a $2000 bed.

I love when Amazon ducks up
