Seems like a great opportunity to get the job, clock in and do absolutely nothing for a day or two and collect a few thousand. Maybe install a persistent foothold if you feel like you might need a bigger payday in a few years E: Ooh even better get chatgpt to write you code CloFan fucked around with this message at 13:54 on Sep 23, 2023 |

teethgrinder posted:The DHCP talk feels "ironic" to me because it appears really broken on our Fortinet firewalls. Setting up a side linux server to prove to the loving company that they need to RMA this poo poo. Otherwise apparently if the power light turns on it's not their problem. About 6 years ago there was a firmware bug on fortigate where dhcp would not work unless the device had gotten a lease before the update. Those would renew fine but new devices couldn't get anything. I think it took like 2 months to get a patch, ridiculous. Their work around was to let the fortiswitch and fortiap do DHCP on non-conflicting ranges, it was a pain in the rear end. We didn't have any servers at this site but probably should have just thrown a Linux box in the closet

 Told my team and colleagues today so I guess it's official. More money, less responsibility, free Masters degree, what's not to like? I'll be the senior sysadmin focusing on O365 but there's still an onprem DC so who knows. Being small-time academia it will almost certainly end up being more of a generalist role. Really going to miss my current school though, great people and mission. No more board reports or cabinet meetings, at least for now. Back to IC for me, with a CISO that has yet to be hired.. Congrats susat! Enjoy your resignation

Also never do business with Ellucian Professional Services, find one of the other consultant groups that specialize. For those that want an HCI that doesn't suck, check out Scale Computing.

Lol hope it works out. Few years back we were delivering a couple dozen all-in-ones for a new computer lab, and my tech noticed the new vehicle we were driving had an automatic hatch open button. He pushed it, and one of the computers slipped out and busted terribly on parking lot concrete. Sorry not sorry Dell, thanks for believing it was shipping damage!

The ceo of Scale has been doing an "I told you so" spiel on the conference circuit since the acquisition announcement. I guess some would-be early adopters opted out due to fears of a buyout when they first started about 12 years ago

In the early 00s we had a computer lab on campus that closed at 5pm. At 4:55, a tech would go in and announce to the room to wrap up and shut down. They'd go smoke a cig, come back to the lab, and put their key into a key box on the well. Turning it killed power to the entire room, thus closing the lab. Worked pretty well! Honestly a physical key-based auth would be pretty neat. Probably more secure than most user passwords anyways

Especially since you've been furloughed, gloves are off at that point. Do not give this company any more loyalty. Hell, guiet quit and collect your pittance until they fire you, no more severance notice needed then.

Elem7 posted:Don't know that I'd describe it as a documentation tool but if you just need a better solution for taking screenshots and then doing basic manipulation, for free, which is what it sounds like Token needs, give GreenShot a look. Also Powerpoint has some in-built functions for that and screen recording a lot of people seem to not know/forget about. Greenshot is what I use when making documentation. Great for simple markup. I did look at a purpose-built documentation platform that will take screenshots or video clips of actions and automatically build a wiki page and publish it. Can't remember what it was called, didn't go that route because greenshot and confluence exist

Doesn't that just mean the manager respects your decision? It's one thing if you speak frankly to them about an opportunity before it's official or before putting in notice, but if you tell me you've accepted another offer I'm not going to try to counter, generally. Of course every situation is different.
