Renegret posted:Sounds like it was for the better it went down this way honestly. yeah sometimes it be that way my last job laid me off (this was retributive actually for having been too close to someone my boss hated) but i hated my job so much and had been looking and they ended up paying out a bunch of severance including the accidentally doubled PTO that i'd pointed out to HR the instant it hit but they never removed from me so i just took it and left lol it immediately made me so much happier and more relaxed that i aced the next interview i had and ended up getting a job that pays more, has better benefits, and i (although i bitch about some problems we have) actually kinda like all before i got more than one unemployment check lmao and as far as circling the drain, it was bad enough that one of my tasks had been to redo all of the sales reporting to compare only to budget and not yoy so there wasn't such an obvious reminder of how they were consistently making less money every year Shugojin fucked around with this message at 13:54 on May 2, 2023 |

Yeah the only problem that really gets me is that we failed to upgrade something in time and it makes more work for me, but that happened because we spent too long trying to do it in a perfect way and turned out to be getting a runaround from the other company we were talking to so now it's overdue and we're doing it in an okay way with a company who is actually doing it

GreenNight posted:What games don't work in Windows 11? The OS has worked great for everything I've thrown at it. I mean unless he somehow installed the N variant or whatever that makes it a huge pain in the rear end to get any DirectX older than 12 on there which will break some games I made this mistake because I thought it would just not install windows media player and other junk I don't want

If it's running up against tjmax then it's probably stable but at the cost of throttling itself to keep it that way so it's losing performance. Which judging from all the gamer's nexus prebuilt reviews is a frustratingly common issue with prebuilts at all price levels

I don't remember the details on this setup or why the customer's router was in bridge mode, I think a contractor we don't use anymore for assorted clownery like this was to blame, but anyway once upon a time a managed printer guy setting something up for a customer managed to statically assign a public IP to a printer that belonged to a different customer and take them offline

No it was just a white guy who was over-writing his email in an attempt to sound smart I knew what he wanted but his company did some bad work for ours back when they were contracting that annoys me at least once a week so I made him say it in a sane way

Renegret posted:I'm generalizing of course but it's the opposite. I work for an ISP so if, for example, I have a single customer complaining of a routing issue because they can't get to Google, I can promise you there's no routing problem. Just because your trace ends in our core network doesn't mean the core network is down you're gonna have to trust me on that. Same goes with DHCP for example, it's either working flawlessly or we're in a crisis. I'm smaller than you but yeah there's so many people who are sure their tiny problem is a MAJOR COMPANY WIDE PROBLEM lol nah bro that's all on you Speaking of DHCP I love how sometimes Netgear routers just decline to perform it once in a while for no clear reason

Silly Newbie posted:Wait, people still build devices with passive PoE? My story was from like 2005, I figured everyone would have figured out just sending the bit that has the power. Wild. Something like this is still around for the same purpose, a purely 2.4ghz mesh, I remember having had to track info on it down to be sure it wasn't an interference source on 5ghz because the website wasn't giving any information on what band or bands it was able to use. Their support answered my email in a perfectly clear way though, so good on them I guess???

Like there are places with really rigid pay bands for positions, but they told you a band right there and then tried to say it can't go that high. That's hosed.
