They had a bigass display for Captain Marvel along with all the movie posters for recent big budget films with military prominently displayed. I’ve seen it. It’s by some escalators as you’re heading towards the entrench IIRC, but it’s been like 15 years.

spacetoaster posted:I think you read some kind of negative connotation into my post. I was hoping that stultus would tell me more about the situation. Not sure about your state but where I live the local unions have been gutted over the last few decades. Yes they exist, but are unable to effectively bargain for their constituents. This is on top of efforts locally to effectively reduce funding for schools (tied solely to property taxes), and remove tenure due to highly publicized cases of bad teachers. YMMV of course but the fact remains that even 20 years ago the writing on the wall locally was it was not a long term solution. This ignores the internal competition for schools and classes / grades in a given school system which I’ve heard from then roommates was especially fierce following the publication of school report cards. Want an “A” school? Good luck newbie, here’s your “D” school for years 1-5. Burnout rate was high amongst educators based on the data I’ve seen. Something like average career was under 5 years and turn over for low rated schools was in the 60% range. Again it’s largely second hand for one small part of the country. I wish you luck and hope your chosen path is as awesome as you want it to be.

Haven’t heard much good about Florida otherwise That’s where the rich fucks who want to buy class but can’t afford Miami or Naples move to. It’s not bad, some killer neighborhoods great for that tree lined streets suburban vibe. But as Mr Nice points out it’s still the Greater Tampa Bay Area and TB overall is an urban sprawl hellscape of gated communities, no mass transit, and highways. The same is true for Orlando and Daytona and much of the rest of the state. We’ve definitely moved past death’s doorstep and into Middle Aged transplants who want low taxes at the cost of good schools and everything else “back home” gave them.

Suntan Boy posted:A finance degree plus technology experience opens the door for IT security at financial institutions, both as an in-house guy, and as a third party pen tester. My brother works as the latter, and the money's good, according to him. Dude travels like 60% of the year, though. Also got him on a recruiting list for a three letter agency, which he turned down because of the 40ish% pay cut. IT Security largely falls into two large buckets: Governance / Risk / Compliance aka GRC aka the loving dicks who sit down and say “we should totally use cloud based proxy providers who have continuously updating blacklists so we don’t have to manage what our employees are seeing on the web”. They’re definitely the equivalent of paper pushers / office workers staying CONUS the entire career. Engineering / Operations aka the loving dicks who actually implement said cloud proxy and make sure it works and have to field the questions because the GRC dicks can’t be bothered to adequately communicate with end users and don’t have to pick up the phone at 2am to unblock nba.com (yes seriously) because the proxy freaked out. They’re the equivalent of the dumb fucks who deployed in the sandbox repeatedly because they hate themselves. Don’t do what I did and stay in Ops, be a GRC dick because they have room for advancement and generally are not caught up in the details. Understand (broadly) the implications of violating HIPPA, GDPR, PCI, GLBA, SOX, AML, etc. Understand PII, MFA, the relationship between accessibility, confidentiality, and integrity within system security design, etc. Basically its high level stuff with a ton of definition interpretation work to tailor to the needs of a particular org. Also unless the Information Systems degree changed drastically in the last 5 years, FSU’s degree was under the Library Information Sciences department and it didn’t meet my needs so I only lasted a single term.

And unless they made a 15 inch 6800 it was 17 inches and a loving beast to carry around. But slice battery and 32 - 64 GB RAM is excellent and I loved mine like no other. Still swapped it out for a top of the line MBP when given a chance by work because it was 1/3rd the weight and most of my work had become terminal / rdp based vs run locally. Lenovo’s P50 series has been excellent for my needs as a workstation class laptop. 64 GB RAM, three drives and a Xeon processor. But I’m just farting around with VMs and containers so its major overkill for my needs.

Dell Precision. Nothing tops a laptop that the manufacturer GIVES you the tear down manual, and tells you how to maintain it at the hardware level. Not to mention being able to squeeze 3-4 hard disks in a 15 inch laptop (varying by year and model), has a socketed CPU and GPU, and is modular. As well as giving you 4 ram slots rather than 2, and the ability to get to them with ease.

You lot are seriously overestimating the intellectual capacity of non-technical staff when it comes to email. But a good system would slot users into tiers whereby the repeat offenders not only get extra training but also tested more frequently to ensure that training is taking hold. But you also need to implement the reporting technology so that users just click a button to report spam / phishing and move on with life.

They’re loving vultures and it was the worst part of my dad dying. Also you may want to consider contacting Goodwill or whatever to see if someone is willing to empty the place of junk for free. This frees you up to take the important stuff but not have to haul stuff away / deal with craigslist crazies. And I’m sorry. The hardest thing for my adult life was dealing with the fallout of my father’s death.

Arishtat posted:If you go Ubiquiti (if you have a shred of sense of how a basic network works it's easy to pick up) pony up for the whole controller / firewall / switch / AP because then everything takes its orders from the controller and you can see what's going on in your network end-to-end. The firewall configuration is a little weird if you're used to any other stateful firewall (pfSense, Cisco, etc.) but Ubiquiti's tutorials do a good job of explaining how Ubiquiti approches networking. Nthing UBNT Make sure you buy UNIFI and not Edgerouter equipment. They don’t mix and match on the back end. The UniFi stuff, if you pop for a cloudkey make am sure it’s GEN 2 and not Gen 1. Gen 1 locks up like a motherfucker. The Security Gateway (router / firewall), the AP, Cloudkey, and switch with PPOE for your AP new will run you some cash but be rock solid for years. They also have mobile apps and a great UI and you can do everything from your phone if you want. Otherwise buy a dumb switch and get a router you can toss Tomato or DD-WRT on and have a good experience but it will crap out eventually, probably in 3 years or so.

Handsome Ralph posted:poo poo, my buddy just told me to go with a TPLink smart switch, so I guess I'll yell at him to step it up. Def. Gonna a look into the ubiq options though. Thanks all! TPLink is good for home use, it’s a perfectly serviceable brand and the Archer lineup is good for third party firmware. But ubiquiti kit is much closer to that professional end then the home end of soho. At a price. And, in my experience while ubiquiti kit in standalone mode will do everything you ask of it, it shines as you start adding in other ubiquiti kit. The AP I had for years was rock solid and a single unit covered my two story 3500 sq ft house. Adding in the Security Gateway I got a GUI and deep packet inspection and graphs and it’s a nice quality of life,

Vasudus posted:I don't know anything about the comic. I just saw the preview for it when I was buying my tea kettle. Comic was a hyper violent super graphic take down of “what if all superheroes were really gigantic assholes and some normies (the boys) took drugs to take them out in the most violent and awful way ever? What if Wonder Woman hated Superman and Batman and could barely stand to be in the same room as them? What if every lineup wide event was really an excuse for the heroes to have a hedonistic party on a private island in the South Pacific? There’s more to it, but it’s definitely a Ennis book and one that aged badly IMO. A few of the tropes just land a bit closer to home today then they did when 10-15 years ago. I’m holding back on watching that one even though my wife is interested in it. I’m just worried it will be too close to the source material. But I was going to wait for a GIPer review before diving in, however anything is better then yet another rerun of a dumb hallmark movie.
