Partycat posted:not in my server room you don't My last photography job had a server room. In the basement. In the room with all the pipes for the building. It was dark. It was damp. There was a drain in the floor, and the owner used to go piss in the hole because it was closer than the bathroom.

Memory/RAM issues usually show up as a lot of random BSODs involving different drivers and modules. But it could possibly be that. What is in the "Parameter 1" column for those BSODs in BlueScreenView? Is your machine a particular model? Or something you built? With things like laptops and other pre-built machines it can be useful to Google the BSOD error along with your laptop/computer model #. I've found this software: https://www.passmark.com/products/burnintest/ somewhat helpful for finding hardware faults. Set it to test all systems and let it run.

Had a very confusing one today, somebody got in touch with our support team really pissed off that a recent site we brought online 'had no Internet'. This was weird because I had been working on stuff there, never noticed any problems, and our alerting hadn't thrown out anything. Turns out the problem was that they walked into this building and they lost reception on their personal mobile phone. Now they are in a mad panic because they think their customers are going to want to be able to use their phones at this location. We aren't a mobile network builder, so I have no idea what they are expecting us to do about it. They insist that Wi-Fi calling isn't an acceptable way out.

Sounds like a facilities issue. No one properly surveyed the physical location to see if it met all business needs. It's not different than someone pointing out a building isn't serviced by water or sewer.

Parameter1 is a mix of quasi random addresses 00000000'0004121 000000000'41792 etc It's a prebuilt laptop, and I've googled the model +bsod but it's a Canada specific sku which means the audience is a lot less, and it's just different enough from the USA model that I'm not sure results for them would be relevant. Might have to passmark it over the weekend to see.

Thanks to  foodservice or even helpdesk means choosing between rent and the medicine I need to stay alive.E: anyone hiring for a junior AWS or k8s guy?

Move to the great state of Michigan, experience all four seasons, visit the Great Lakes, and get out of your miserable call center job by moving to Detroit. You won't regret it. I fixed your post.  Edit: I currently hold a 100% success rate of goons getting jobs in Detroit after I referred them there, you're a shoe-in 22 Eargesplitten!!

TBH at this point if I wasn't such a sadbrains in need of what little social support circle I have I would probably apply. At this point the only place I could really move would be GA or the Boston area (and lol Boston COL), since I've got family there. Also my only point of reference for Detroit is Delray, the ghost town near Mexicantown (literally what it's called don't ban me) where there are no abandoned cars because they'll get stripped and even the frame stolen for scrap in two days.

You do want to avoid the ring of Fire. But honestly any place that’s offering you a good start and a sound footing - if you can afford the move - why not ?

Imho applying and interviewing is great practice even if you don't get the job or if you get an offer and decide not to take it. There is literally no downside.
