@Minion-Queen @BBigford @DustinB3403 Expert Ts Design Their quote for 50 shirts is at $10.04 each (still, that's $1004 total), and a single one for $17.49. I wouldn't trust that site for anything, if anyone else is interested in picking one up I'll go to the actual store. Worst site I've seen in years security wise.
Whoa, that is super affordable at $10.04 for 50 shirts considering it is 70% less than buying only 1. That's some good profit margin for ML.
@Minion-Queen, you could do the pre-order route... let people know that it could take an indefinite amount of time until the limit of X-needed was reached, then orders would be processed. Unless that is getting to be too much of a hassle for ML attire. If you're only generating interest of dozens at a time, like a quarterly surge of 30 people, you could determine an amount that would be needed to make the whole thing worth it (like 50, 75, etc). You wouldn't really have to even figure in shipping, you could just pass that cost to the purchaser. The only thing I would be concerned about would be the margin of payment processing. If you had a business plan, you would get the standard 3% off the front end removed in no time, but that 3% on the back end to the processing company...
I can easily do that. I do enough business to already not need to worry about it.

That is pretty awesome!

@gjacobse Yeah that is.

SW just posted a cloud poll that is basically a bunch of questions that if you answer yes to ANY of them (which is required to submit the poll) you'll look like a dolt. They are so bad at making surveys that they just made one that guarantees 100% idiocy.

So this wasn't a user-generated poll? That's just a sad bunch of marketing people trying to manage IT people... it won't end well.

Exactly. Marketing people making a poll about how end users in IT are often fooled by marketing. What could go wrong?

Do you have a link? I just got online...

At work but just relaxing until my shift starts at 1500 EST.

Spaghetti wrangling will level up today I think.

Pizza is on its way to the office! Wings too! Very happy!

Driving home.

Ugh going home. Worst acid reflux ever from being hunched over tracing cable all afternoon.
Going to drain a bottle of pepto and go for a walk.

just arrived home and noticed that this NAS is still wiping itself..

Good morning everyone.

Wondering what I should try and achieve today.
-
And you wonder how people miss questions like the SMTP port number?
- "An HA Device"... what the F does that mean? An aeroplane, an HVAC system, what? This is in "server hardware" so maybe they think that the only thing that we need to know is that he has two of these servers? Seriously, how does telling us it is HA matter but not WHAT it is?
- L2 is part of the chip, so can never be upgraded. No chip lets you change the on-chip memory. Seriously?
It's one thing to not understand technology at all, or to not understand English.... but the issue here, as almost always, is not understanding how to ask a basic question. Zero relevant data, none.

Pouring rain here again today.

Just got to work after dropping parents off at the station as they're heading home today...feeling like crap because of a dodgy throat/ear thing too...
Today is going to be a good day lol.....
