      @johnhooks That's so cool. I wonder how that is generated.

      It's based on sites you've visited before, but I don't know how they monitor for updates. I get some random junk too. Like the other day I got something about Lil Wayne walking off stage somewhere. I have never read anything about Little Wayne, so I don't know why I got that one.

            Nothing makes you feel more alive than almost getting run over every time you leave the house?

                It's amazing what moving a few lines of code around can do, lol. I was working on a PowerShell script that runs against AD, and since our AD is so large now (35k users!), the script was chewing up 2GB of ram every time it ran.

                I moved 1 line of code up about 4 lines, and whammo! Script is tracking to run faster than it did before, and it's currently only using 100 megs of ram, lol.

                    About to leave work early due to the impending over-hyped snow storm. Schools were closed 24 hrs before the storm was scheduled to hit. At least it's an excuse for a half day today and I can also be late tomorrow. 🙂

                      Important aspect of hiring an MSP.... make sure you actually hired them. Whoops.

                            Yup. Half of those people in that thread would get their butts fired by a good MSP if they responded like that to them instead of in a thread. None of them even bothered to read the part where the MSP told them that they didn't have service. Even the OP posts a thread specifically about their managed service and then posts a quote saying that they had no such service and never realized that THAT was the issue at hand!!

                              Just had 3 new servers delivered.... and slammed / dropped off the cart by the FedEx guy... who promptly got an earful from me. An earful of swear words and insults.

                                Apparently I am the most Spiced Up person on SW this week. That's awesome. I really wish that I knew which comments, threads, posts were the ones that people found so interesting or insightful or whatever.

                                  @MattSpeller Operation Spice SAM was a success.

                                      So we had a conversation here about CPUs, cores, etc. One day later someone digs up a two year old thread on the same topic and somehow thinks that a six core Intel processor magically turns into 144 thread engines! That's 24 logical threads per core on a cheap, entry level Intel proc! I think someone is pretty confused. No idea where his numbers are coming from nor why he is posting it on an ancient post that has nothing to do with what he is talking about.

                                        But Scott (2*6)*12 is 144 you can't argue with his math....

                                          Ah, I see. The math proves it.
