It's actually easy. Go to bed sooner.
Of course, the simplest things are often the hardest to do.

I've entered the worst phase of the cold: When you can't taste anything.

This started Wednesday, but luckily I never got a fever, so not total misery

That would have helped last night minus the fact that calls came in at super early in the morning because people were doing installs over night so that sites could open

Today started with a meeting with an MSP at a coffee shop in Dallas. We were set up by someone else at the company for the meeting, so the person with whom we were meeting had only heard that "Scott and Paul" were coming. So I was just "Scott" and that was all.
So we got together and got coffee, exchanged cards, but we'd already spoken by email so who really looks at business cards at that point, it's just for your wallet for later in case you need to call.
So after a bit something came up and Paul said "Oh, so you know Scott Alan Miller." The guy instantly is like "oh yeah, I'm on Spiceworks, of course I know Scott Alan Miller."
I look over at him and look at my card and I'm like "I AM Scott Alan Miller". LOL
Guy's eyes got huge, and he looks down at the card and puts two and two together. It was pretty funny.
lmao

Listening to some crazy experimental/minimal music by Jim Jarmusch and a German experimental lute player.

Yes, I am weird.

Trying to re-image a windows 7 PC that the customer corrupted by unplugging it.
Apparently the hardware guy set up the images to be per board, but He has nothing for the intel board that is in the PC.
Waiting for him to call back.

Things can get a little weird when the two merge.

waiting to see if the cmos battery in an XPS13 will recharge... might be able to get it cheap from work if I can revive it

Trying to figure out how to install MeshAgent without logging into user machines.
PDQ deploy?
Like GPO, I have that in one place, but not all.
The only thing I have every place is ScreenConnect.
I can download the Agent easily.
I can execute it, and a MeshAgent.exe process shows up.
But nothing hits the console.
The ScreenConnect session is not a full environment. I do a lot with it, but never tried this before.
Are there commandline options that allow it to install silently? If it's not hiting your console, I'm assuming is requiring user interaction on the desktop by the default installer?
That was it.. Command line for windows was a
-installand not a/installand I needed to use-fullinstallto make it work.Winner Winner Chicken dinner
So used to Windows using
/for switches on the command line. -

The moronic decisions of Gary Kildall and everyone else that decided to copy the command syntax of OpenVMS and RDOS rather than something a bit more logical like Unix. Not to mention busted ass syntax made worse even today with PowerShell... great, commands with hyphens, that's not irritating at all. Maybe let's copy bash or something, oh no let's instead really mess things up even more and invent something worse.
Also with classic DOS, you want to run it in the background? Can't use &, instead && is used as a command separator. Essentially the bad syntax choices made early on made it to where every additional change was equally terrible or made even worse.

I think VMS copied Kildall. C/PM was 1974, VMS was 1977.

Yes, you are correct. In either case, he still at least copied RDOS. What's astonishing to me about the whole thing is we know that people were aware of Unix and its well thought out approach to CLI, or even Multics, et al. I imagine though OpenVMS probably copied RDOS.
I recall reading something many years ago where Bill Gates mentioned the superior command syntax of Unix (after all Microsoft had their own version of Unix, Xenix) but they had to remain mostly-compatible with CP/M for competitive reasons.
