MC Fruit Stripe posted:I don't follow, are people not making role playing games anymore or something? In some alternate universe where I have nothing better to do, I like the idea of trolling mainframe job postings with the sweet QBASIC Final Fantasy 6 ripoff I made with my buddies in high school DigitalMocking posted:You're one of those very odd QA people who actually likes being in QA. I did some college internships in QA and am really glad I did. I feel like it helped a lot with learning how to accurately describe issues, and tenaciously find exact steps to reproduce even weird-rear end "this should never loving happen ever, but it did one time, and it bothers me" bugs. I actually thought I wanted to be a QA lifer at the end of that experience... til I got exposed to Linux and networking in the course of learning to automate my tests, and realized they were 1000% more interesting to me. I do think some QA experience would be valuable to almost any junior technology worker, even if they aren't in a software dev org. For the troubleshooting reasons I mentioned, and because the amount of scripting and infrastructure code like Chef/Puppet/Terraform/whatever that gets YOLO'd into production totally untested across our industry is pretty horrifying.

[quote="“Aunt Beth”" post="“476671348”"] They do! It’s pretty fun. We’re a big customer of theirs so we go every year. [/quote] They must pay you for this right? You wouldn't willingly use your own money for this conference?

What's the cheapest USB IP KVM I can buy (used/surplus is awesome) that doesn't need anything stupid like a dead Java version?

Vulture Culture posted:What's the cheapest USB IP KVM I can buy (used/surplus is awesome) that doesn't need anything stupid like a dead Java version? This seems like an area ripe for ~disruption~ because god drat is everything I've ever used awful. There must just not be enough money in it? It's TYOOL 2017 and it took like 20 years for Dell, with zillions of engineers and dollars, to come out with a DRAC console that just mostly works OK. As in, I can launch it without having to go download Firefox 1.0 and JDK 1.6 and disable every security setting that exists in both of them. And then still have it not recognize my keystrokes and need to call remote hands anyway. I should probably just replace this post with the word "triggered" I haven't used an actual hardware KVM in a while, but IIRC had not-totally-awful luck with TrippLite stuff the last time I needed them?

Yeah, and then, in their infinite loving wisdom, the HTML5 console isn't the default. Or at least it wasn't on the one DRAC 9 I've set up so far. I mean, wtf Dell. Also you just made me realize how much I've been suffering from their abuse because I've been GRATEFUL that they finally made the console just work, and your post reminded me that in fact I should have said "about loving time you assholes figured this poo poo out".

Joy, followed by the slow dawning of just how awful the last like 10 years of my life had been due to their utter garbage application.

The technical content is alright, and they offer free certification exams. More useful for partners and resellers though.

I am not a UBNT shareholder but a Ubiquiti stakeholder considering I have an edgerouter at home and started selling unifi wifis at work. So far we had one DoA cloudstick, but the whole workflow is nice and well documented, I really like working with their gear. For the small shops we sell them too its also a great alternative to our enterprise offerings.

Every morning one of us would find the mirror covered in spray of partially bloody snot bits and even after three years we never figured out what goddamn creep was doing it, or what exactly they were doing. A bunch of coke.

Ubiquiti freaking owns. I just did a full stack install for a client and it's rock solid. It's also been great at home.

Last night, Network was doing a core switch replacement. Started at midnight, shouldn't take more than an hour. DR testing got cancelled because ... I don't know actually. Around 2am neywork decided to rollback due to unforeseen issues. It is now noon. We have no network, no website, no phones, no online presence. No online or mobile banking. No contact center. No webmail. There is no ETA on getting network back up. The old core is "corrupted" so they're redoing the configuration Line. By. Line. Manually. On the upside I won $100 in the "Will network gently caress this up" pool.

Like...how does that even happen. For something that critical you get an outside vendor to assist and make sure you've crossed i's and t's on your change plan, so you can shift some of the blame if it does go south. Do keep us informed.

How hard is it to back up the configs on the regular? Redoing the config line by line means you've been dropping the ball continuously.
