That uptime is rookie numbers.

Death scrolling ML, been a while since I've had a chance to post here. How is everyone doing?

Eating some grub, while wanting to go to the Gym. . . also had to let someone go earlier today.

@scottalanmiller Finally. . . I have a customer who insists that WINS is as good as it'll ever get. . .

Now maybe I can put their nose into it. .

@scottalanmiller said in Energy efficiency?:

It's been a little while. I can only buy them every 9 months or so since they aren't sold in this part of the world.
Weird that they would go up in price when no new models have come out in so long.

More like they aren't shipped to those parts of the world, but also it isn't unusual that the price has gone through the roof on these.

Supply and demand. . .

There are likely thousands of these sitting on a dock/cargo ship just waiting to get delivered to the outlets that sell em.

Just got back from the beach. A friend's dog was just hit by a truck and I'm coordinating getting him to a hospital.

You had time to stop and post to ML?

100 Days. The wine making simulator is free today.

Use a simulator or try your hand at Toilet Bowl Wine. . . lol

@JaredBusch I get it, 100%.

I had a customers entire production shop (who actually has public IP address subnet for their LAN) who came to a complete halt calling in for assistance in sorting out what the hell happened.

Microsoft claimed this was a security feature. . .

@Dashrender said in Unable to mark NAS location trusted in Office:

is K mapped with a name or an IP?

By IP.

I assume it will work when I remap it with the DNS entry.

Had this same issue, had to map via dns name rather than ip address.

Microsoft claims this is a feature.

Hitting the gym on lunch, removing old rms tooling now that it's been replaced.

@scottalanmiller said in RojoLoco gets a new kitchen....:

@RojoLoco nice, congrats

Very nice man!

@Dashrender because radicalism has been normalized from our political leadership.

Throw out every norm and convention, publicly for rule of law and order, and the masses will follow suit.

Thanks I'll give this a try today

@scottalanmiller any recommendations?

@DustinB3403 said in Windows SDK to build an MSI:

Hey all, long time since I've posted. To summarize the ask is anyone familiar enough with Windows SDK to build an MSI out of an EXE? Hoping for a crash course on this.

The software vendor provides only loose instructions to building an MSI, but it's all for SCCM and not SDK.

Thanks

Why not convert the exi (as it is) to msi file without building it as an msi?
There are wrappers and converters out there that will do it.

Or are you looking for special customization of the msi files?

The exe has no options at all, I did try a wrapper but it failed to work. So I figured might as well go down the road that's been paved..

@Saba said in Windows 10 and RHEL 9 Dual Boot help.:

@Pete-S When i rebooted from Linux, I actually selected Windows 10 from the list of available operating systems

Sorry, I can't help you. I stopped trying to get Windows and Linux to coexist on the same drive with dual boot because Windows would often cause some problem even when it's suppose to work.

So when I need windows and linux on the same machine I do one of three things:

• run the secondary OS in a VM and then both OSes can run at the same time
• install each OS on it's own drive and swap drives as needed
• have windows installed but boot linux from a USB drive without actually installing it

Agreed, running a VM on either Windows or Linux is such an easy thing to do now that dual booting really doesn't make sense any more.
