What is even "worse", if anything can be, is that the Cisco Platinum Partner host that was hosting the event decided to play along and not call their bluff and hope that the audience, which was all IT people, wouldn't notice!! That or they actually weren't aware of what a realistic lie about networking would sound like.

I don't even want to imagine how much the Cisco router would be that could handle 14Tb/s ...

Hard to imagine Cisco ever being able to handle that. Ubiquiti will be doing 1Pb/s before Cisco figures TB/s out!

Ubiquiti gets all the street cred (and probably all the single ladies too).

We're the same age. All it takes is finding one person out of 6+ billion. I just recently got engaged:

Although this is scientifically the worst picture I've ever taken, I think you get the picture. You find your match and you're set. I've been there believe me.

An outsider might think asking about Scotch on an IT forum doesn't make sense. It makes the most sense.

Confess anything from worst parts of your job to the worst part of your configuration and why you can't change it. I'll go first.

My server room is cooled by a typical consumer grade window unit that management refuses to change. It broke Friday without me knowing. I came in today (Monday) and my server room was 85 degrees and climbing. They don't listen to me and then still hold me responsible for the end results.

@batman He probably works in a place like mine. The real solution is to get another job

2:30 PM is my presentation o.O

For the first time in like 4 years I helped someone guys

Killed it boys

So I walk out to finally get lunch at 3:20 only to see a giant gash in the side of my car. Someone swiped the side of my car. My crowning achievement for all of my hard work over the past 10 years. The only nice car I have ever owned.

I am so defeated today. The one saving grace of this situation is the man who accidentally hit me did the honest thing and exchanged his insurance. I wasn't there when it happened. He could've just drove away but didn't.

We need a ML snickers commercial where @JaredBusch is hungry doing tech support, pissed off at the world and he eats a snickers and turns into @Joy

I can't stop laughing

Just letting everyone know I'm alive

@DustinB3403 said in I can't even:

Bought servers and a lot of SAS drives and is now asking how he should configure the array!

WTF people.

This has to be the most common WTF in IT. I swear.

Before I knew Scott my favorite thing to do was search topics with RAID in them and sit back until Scott blew a gasket. Actually, it's still my favorite thing

Guys, the motivation here isn't to heal it's to get away with eating as much ice cream and pudding as I can

Here is an air station that takes credit cards. Happy I found this!!! I NEVER carry change with me.

I'll have your credit card information in 5...4...3...2...<ding!>

Now, just for confirmation, what's the CCV number on the back of your card?

I just use my shop air compressor. Something weird about using a credit card to purchase a small amount of air...

Spaceballs was a documentary

Idk if anyone else follows Wendys on twitter but whoever does their social networking is a genius

@scottalanmiller can you post some SAM-SD info links fancy some "light" reading today

I was up till 4am with the SAM-SD guys. Man am I exhausted. I've not had a full night's sleep in nearly a week.

Can't work when you're dead.

@scottalanmiller will upload his consciousness into a computer and then obsess over his own backups of himself. Then ultimately they will try to cluster Scott together with other Scotts and they will argue with each other, causing the entire system to crash.

Mac & cheese cupcakes

What is this sacrilege

Not as good as it sounded.

That's bad because it sounds terrible

I bought some wireless doorbells and hid them in my old co-workers office inside of books, the ceiling, etc. He never found them all. I went to visit a few months back and set two of them off. lol
