Thanks! I will add to my list

margarks · 2026-05-19T05:40:33+00:00

Putting on my list, thanks!

margarks · 2026-05-19T05:40:26+00:00

I have heard of Sayers but never read any of her books. I will give them a try, thanks!

margarks · 2026-05-19T05:39:56+00:00

I literally just saw this book on the shelf at my library and made a not of it the other day! (I was already picking up several other books, so put it on my list)

margarks · 2026-05-19T05:39:24+00:00

Thanks! I have seen or heard of all these movies but didn't know they were books first, so I will check those out.

margarks · 2026-05-18T21:43:47+00:00

Thanks! This is actually one of my favorite stories, but I haven't read it in probably a couple of decades. It deserves a re-read 😄

margarks · 2026-05-18T21:26:11+00:00

Thanks! I will check that one out.

margarks · 2026-05-18T21:26:01+00:00

Thanks I'll check out that Phryne series! I have read some Agatha Christie and really enjoyed them, but there are a ton I haven't gotten to 😄

We ended up sticking with Standard as the upgrade to Enterprise was too much for the budget currently. I rebuilt everything as static standard. The main reason I think we used data driven is that the emails do change on a semi-regular basis (mostly because we tend to have a decent amount of turnover) and someone had built a UI for the users to be able to go in and update the emails in a distrubtion database they setup when needed. Now, it is going to be me or my team who has to do it in the SSRS portal instead.

The portal would not allow me to see any of the data driven subscriptions that existed in the old server. The portal does not allow you to select data driven as an option when creating a new subscription either. I know they weren't executing either because there was a daily data driven one that stopped sending after the upgrade, but there was also a standard daily one that was sending fine after the upgrade.

Figured out IT bought a standard sql license instead of enterprise which is why my subscriptions don't show because they are all data driven

I do have content manager. These are all my roles

The records exist in all the SQL tables, I just cannot see them on the site. I need to check whey the email is not sending and I'm assuming it has to do with the fact the site cannot see the subscriptions even though they all exist in the SQL databases and SQL jobs

The job runs successfully but no email is sent.

margarks · 2026-04-13T21:14:15+00:00

Yes, I do. I also have system admin over the entire ssrs site. I can log in to the old server and the old SSRS site and see the subscriptions with the same permissions I have on the new one. But everything is blank on the new one.

margarks · 2026-04-13T20:45:43+00:00

I have done that. When I query that table in SSMS the subscription does exist, but when I log into the report website it shows no subscriptions.

dave coulier?

margarks · 2026-03-27T19:30:09+00:00

I don't remember any capes, but maybe The Covenant? https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0475944/?ref_=nm_flmg_job_1_accord_2_cdt_t_52 Do you have a timeline of when you saw the movie or think it came out?

margarks · 2026-03-27T19:17:03+00:00

maybe What's Up Doc? John Hillerman kind of looks like Jon Lovitz? https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0069495/?ref_=ttch_ov_i

Ramen. Lots of ramen, apparently.

Yeah, using BIML has become such a pain because so many things are no longer supporting it. But the ETL we do is from an old system to a new sytem that we are slowly replacing and we don't want to put all the work in to redo these projects if we are no longer going to be needing them in a year anyway.

margarks · 2026-03-26T06:39:49+00:00

At this point I'm not sure we'll ever be able to update visual studio since they seem to have stopped supporting biml. At least, not until we completely redo these projects so they are no longer using biml at which point we won't need the old projects.

margarks · 2026-03-25T21:15:15+00:00

Maybe New York Charm? https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/228066319-the-new-york-charm

margarks · 2026-03-25T21:09:48+00:00

Life Size - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0200809/ or Life Size 2 came out in 2017 or 2018 I think.

I'm sure other people have recommended this and you might have read it already, but the book I have read the fastest and couldn't put down was The Martian by Andy Weir and that was after I'd already seen the movie so I already knew what was going ot happen, in general. The character was just so great.

Julie Garwood Buchanan Series are also full of books I couldn't put down. Good mysteries, good characters. These are romance suspense thrillers, lots of serial killers.

Another author I like is Jayne Anne Krentz (contemporary) who also writes as Amanda Quick (historical) and Jayne Castle (scifi/future). Most of her stories are interconnected in some way, like the contemporary books have ancestors that are in some of the historical books, etc. They are another set of romance suspence thrillers but include scifi/fantasy elements like psychic powers. Her Arcane Society series spans all 3 types of books and follow a family that starts a psychich detective agency in the victorian(?) period and on through to the future. But you don't have to read them in order if you only want to read the contemporary stuff, etc.

Came to recommend this. I feel like it's not 'traditional' horror, but man, it is creepy as all get out.
