given the average goon can't budget past what toy he's going to spend his next pay/disability check on, you guys would have as much chance at understanding grad level financial accounting as ancient Sanskrit

goons are broke as gently caress and consequently have many terrible opinions regarding money issues

you would think they would turn some lights on at Greys hospital. feels like it's the emergency lights on only

also they need to get off the 720p varicams for the show as well. pretty bad seeing noisy 720p shots because they wanted the hospital to feel like a dingy casino instead of a hospital.

most product placement doesn't bother me even though i have some friends who can't stand it

if i even notice the brand of something in a show or movie, it's like "oh, they're driving an audi" or "they're having a coke" or "they're using a mac", it doesn't register to me as advertising/etc. since real people use/do those things

that's why its so grating to see someone using a surface ipad-like device or leave their computer at the windows 8 metro start screen (parks and rec. does this) or use a laptop with a windows logo where the apple logo would be on a mac :lol:

no one has or uses those things damnit

the one option is to have people connect to your VDI infrastructure through thin-client type laptops when they are within the continental US or whatever but if they're going overseas then they get a loaner beefy laptop that you load the VM files on locally to work with so they can transition seamlessly

yep. management loves this because it eliminates the threat of having your faculty's poo poo stolen in an airport which happens way more often than you'd think

Like the Deans will sign off on a shitzillion dollars to buy literally thousands of Matlab licenses with every toolbox under the sun, COMSOL, etc. etc. They'll buy truckloads of PCs/Laptops, and they even kinda get why profs want their own clusters and will buy those but they glaze over at this kinda poo poo

money in academia is more :psyduck: than you can imagine; mostly with how many pools it gets split up into that can only be spent on this and not on that etc

which is why my boss owns for having sorted out decades of mismanagement in about 4 years and now we have a baller inf
