Since I'm on PTO as of yesterday, I've taken a little break from things (and am training the rest of my colleagues that PTO really means "Eddie's not available for work."
Plane leaves Atlanta for MangoCon in 6 hours.

Oh I thought you meant "taking a break from things" to mean "started to pre-game for MangoCon!"

Ha! I've put in some quality time on Final Fantasy 7 for the last few days.

PC version on Steam. I never beat the original way back when. I need to remedy that. My all-time favorite is FF4. I gobbled up as many Final Fantasys (pre 7) as I could on Steam, and will get to them eventually.

Careful when you get the crashed airship. I somehow got it stuck on a beach and only had the single save point. So lost all of that play time (like 5 hours or w/e it is)

Good morning - here trying to taunt myself a second time to start the day
Good morning, I'm currently trying to drown myself with coffee hoping that will help me start the day as well.
No coffee yet, but starting that soon. But hey, you have tomorrow off!

As @QuixoticJeremy's team works on the helpdesk function for Sodium, we'd love if you considered giving us a try. It's free and hosted and while it's not quite ready today, it might be ready for you by the time you get osTicket installed! We've got a great vision for where the helpdesk is going and think that it is going to be a very cool feature in our product suite. If you jump in now, you'll have a chance to help guide the product and ensure that it meets your needs!

You guys are building a ticketing system as well?

The first implementation of it has already been released. Maybe 4 or 5 days ago. It is at a very basic point at the moment but with full intention of implementing a LOT of functionality for it. MangoCon has slowed my team up a hair but we should be doing another release in the next few days. Maybe even live from MC!

@QuixoticJeremy @QuixoticJustin Maybe this needs to have its own thread, but how are you funding your tools? I'm always interested in working with new tools, but the world of FOSS is littered with abandonware.

Need a way of making Firefox open full screen (e.g. you've pressed F11) when it starts up on a RaspPi running Ubuntu Mate.

Building! Ha, try BUILT. Okay, it's pretty rudimentary and doesn't quite work yet. But the framework is there and you can put in tickets. Should be ready for basic ticket use any day. But yeah, ticketing is there and already has some cool functionality that is pretty uncommon in the helpdesk/ticketing space.

We are funded by a private equity group in Texas that invests in technology-related businesses, primarily. I doubt that we will be going anywhere, we have no venture capital type people to answer to, and our backers have been around for a long time and are just changing their investment style. Traditional VC is churn and burn (build it up, get market, sell it) but ours are long term growth investors - they specialize in building long running businesses focused on revenues years out and make their returns from operational success, not selling to a larger player like California style VC focuses on.
