What Are You Doing Right Now

I just had a user set all exe files to run with adobe reader. All the way through system32 it was adobe reader icons. I nearly died laughing.

@MattSpeller... (Read this in a newscaster's voice): And in other news, an IT Employee was found dead next to a user's desk with an apparent grin on his face. Oh wait. This Just In: IT Employee was found nearly dead. He has been transported to a nearby hospital and awaiting diagnosis from doctors.

@dafyre Acute need for a grin-ectomy
Had to nuke the user's profile to fix it - that really hosed the thing. I'm impressed!

Didn't realize Microsoft Hyper-V Server was in the technical preview stage. If I get some spare hardware in the future I will look into it.
The new one is. As is windows Server that's based on windows 10. But, they are dropping the versions. It's now just Hyper-V and Windows Server.. no more year or Release versions.

It's a good move. So many IT people and their weird inability to remember which version is current or fearing each new update as "new" and avoiding patches because they don't understand the code cycles. I think that it is a good move.

Yeah, aside from those of us that understand windows versions. No more being able to tell if a company is up to date quickly. Or telling the state of a company from their job requirements.

Good point. Although it will mean that systems are more often up to date because it will be more a matter of updating and less of going to a whole new version.

Yep, probably a good call especially if they are doing the update schedule that has been mentioned.

Been noticing that the Unread number has been updating lately. I refresh and it still won't show the number of unread threads with new posts, etc but if I go to Unread, there are threads in there.

Short groan. My old laptop which I have been setting up for the kids to use is across the room at the DELL logo screen. It's not been used in about a month, and was working fine the last time I had it running. I have no idea what has happened to it, since it's not been used.
Time to call the help desk.

Four interviews tomorrow. All at the same company just with different people in management. Odd that they are doing it 1 on 1 instead of all at the same time.

Maybe they like you so much that they don't want to scare you off with a 4 vs 1 interview...
That'd be nice -
Good morning people

Waiting on the family to arrive in Tokyo and call me. 3 hours until arrival, probably 2-3 after that before they are home between immigration, baggage claim, and the drive from Haneda to Okegawa (Saitama prefecture).

How often do they go over there?

I would really love to go to Japan some day. I have a friend who is going to be stationed there by the end of the year, should be there for three years... may have to go visit him.
