      Women's Rugby Bronze!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      Yahoo!!!!!!!

      Is that a real sport? šŸ˜‰

      If it's in the Olympics, I consider it a worthless sport. The Olympics is where the sports that aren't good enough to stand on their own go.

      monstrous eye roll

        Is that another one of the new "sports" that they have there?

          I'd make up things that are just silly, but I'm not sure how to make up sillier ones than are already there. Do they have dune buggy flipping, go kart racing and frisbee golf yet?

              @MattSpeller too late, you already named the monstrous eye roll competition. What's Canada getting in that one?

                  I can do this all day. There's nothing as silly as the actual thing.

                      Family just went to the hospital. They gave up on natural birth, it's C-section time. I'll be an uncle for the fifth time in an hour or so.

                            No. Completely wrong. I don't know how much more wrong you could possibly be. šŸ˜›
                            The Olympics is just advertising fro condom companies. 42,000 have been issued to "Olympians", add that to the dodgy hotel room styled accommodations that they always have...

                              Wow, had someone on SW basically tell me that posting good info in the thread is pointless because the OP would "just know that", then went on to give contrary advice to what he had just implied was obvious, common knowledge - telling the OP exactly the opposite of the truth apparently to intentionally spite him into wasting money.

                                Here is what I posted on the thread...

                                To the OP, you have someone trying to con you in this thread. I'm dropping out. They are actively trying to hurt you and to troll me into getting into a fight to protect you. You have what you need to know. If flexibility is the goal, the MSA is fine. If improving reliability is your goal, it is not. It's that simple. Common sense is all that is needed here. Redundancy is a tool to gain reliability. Redundant straw houses are not as reliable in a fire as a single brick one. If someone tries to fool you by saying that redundancy and reliability are the same thing, you know that you have a con artist out to get you. Reliability is a goal, an end. Redundancy is a tool, a means (that doesn't always work the way that you would guess.)

                                There is no point in having a discussion here on ethics. People who want to hurt you for their own ends will do so. Logic doesn't change that. Be warned, a lot of people either make money from selling you what you don't need or propose that you do risky things to justify decisions that they have made in the past. Be warned, think critically. Good luck.

                                  Hopefully the OP listens.

                                    Meh... if he listens, it'll be good for him. If he doesn't listen, he gets what he deserves. So.... whatever. Although, of course, it's the company that the OP works for that ultimately pays the price, not the IT guy (normally.)

                                        A lot of people seem to be out for personal gain. Mostly, I'm guessing, people who want to justify decisions that they have already made (this could be OPs or the people giving reckless, illogical advice) just wanting to feel good about what they already did and don't want the flaws or risks pointed out to them or people who fear that their bosses or coworkers will find out and question decisions that they can't defend. Just my guess.

                                            It's sad that so many people chose to use a technical community as a guise for doing that šŸ˜ž I'm sure many are just confused. But the number of people that actively defend some obviously dangerous stuff and will attack anyone that provides math, logic or just questions them is a bit nutty.
