Remember: Repair/reuse/recycle your T-Rex.

It's a bit like knitting.

I'd watch that reality TV show. 'Moon road truckers'.

Bad-Science

Its amazing how often the need for that skill comes up in battle!

What I do on my network is have the outgoing policy to to basically 'Allow All', then restrict the specific services you don't want to allow. That way you are less likely to be chasing down individual needs to specific sites.

Then you can watch the log with 'traffic monitor' to see what is being allowed or denied. It will tell you what the application that that traffic is identified as, so it is easy at that point to go back into the policy and turn that specific app on or off.

I weep for her kid if they turn out to be gay, or fall in love with anybody but a christian white girl/boy.

Go to your firewall policies, select the policy then the 'application control' tab. This will bring up a huge list of pre-configured applications (and categories) you can selectively allow or deny traffic for. For instance, the category 'social media' and 'Media Streaming' are good ones to start looking at.

I'm not 100% certain if this is a feature you need to pay for, or if it is included in the base license.

I keep rotating between stickys, a notepad doc, a 'todo' app, Spiceworks ticketing, Word docs and then of course general scrawls on scraps of paper and backs of envelopes.

One works for me for a wile, then I stop keeping up with it so move on to the next method. Been going in circles for over 15 years!

The BEST passing. Nobody has ever passed gooder!

So Giuliani left?

Also: People who have their bank mistakenly deposit into their account, then for some reason think it is free money and won't get reversed out as soon as the mistake is discovered.

If non-urgent, please include the time you'd like to have this completed.

LOL. Time would be 30 minutes from when they dropped it off.

I used to have this under control, though it got me some negative comments that came up during my annual review.

Then I got a co-worker who is just too eager to please. He jumps right on every little thing that comes in, even if it means putting down the project he SHOULD be working on. So now all the users are trained that coming to us 'works'. I hate him.

We have systems now that we were told were NOT our responsibility, and to forward all tickets to a different department. But he will still work on these when asked because 'it was a small issue and just easier to fix it now'. Then the flood begins.

BTW: We got so many wireless mouse/keyboard help requests that we finally told them that such things were not IT responsibility. They can have them if they buy their own, but 1) They had to keep them going themselves and 2) in NO cases were they allowed to install anything but standard Windows drivers. No install disks, mouse utilities, etc.

Some of the tiktok challenges can be very helpful in the right context.

For instance, when working on CISCO equipment, I find the 'set it on fire' challenge to be very rewarding.

Either that, or I stuff the ports with Tide pods.

Baby has +5 on attack. Rolled natural 20s on 'Add Stress' and 'No Sleep' attack spells.

Make an extra D6 roll for 'spews lunch' and 'Fills Diaper'. Anything over a 2 is a winner.

Text from Dominos:

We noticed that you just got home later than usual. Working late again? Text 'YES' to order your usual pizza delivered hot.

We noticed your lawn in looking a little brown. Buy some fertilizer for it on Amazon!

That car is looking old, time for a new Jeep?

In looking into child support issues, we notice that your friend appears to be drunk every Friday when he comes to hang out. His ex's lawyer will be notified.

We noticed you sitting in your lawn chair looking at the house across the street. Did you know that there are underaged girls there? Are you some kind of pervert?

You called in sick to work today, but your boss subscribes to the Ring feed and saw you take off on your bicycle! You're fired!

All unlikely... but possible. What is NOT unlikely that we haven't considered yet?

I believe Maple Syrup forgery still carries the death penalty in Vermont.

I had a wound like that once when I tried to use medical tape to create cleavage. I left it on WAY too long and it ended up causing nasty painful blisters that took forever to heal .

Hard pass.

Our CEO could be replaced by a good shell script.

As a transgender person, I agree with this statement.

Bad-Science

Same. And I'm the last in my family for a few generations back. I will pass like a Summer breeze, and only show up in the odd Reddit post and tax record...

5 years is optimistic!

Wasn't he just at Hardees and the FBI too his phone?
