How?!
SQL database .net framework what else does SW need? My soul?!
SW has never used either of those.
It was a joke. . . my god.
@Mike-Davis said in where to find free hyper-v product key:
I have a physical server with a COA for Server 2008 R2. It's the one that has two product keys on it. One for the host and one for the VMs.
I want to virtualize it, but would rather go with a newer version of Hyper-v.
That COA is stuck with the hardware, you aren't allowed to migrate it into a VM.
You'll have to purchase licensing with downgrade rights to be able to create 2008 R2 VM's.

The simple approach would be a VLAN.
@dustinb3403 said in Oooops...:
Did you do this or someone who was immediately punched in the back of their head?
I've never done it before. I just wanted to see it in action. The VM was backed up before performing this function.
Ah, so a test.
Why call it oops then?

@Mike-Davis and what exactly is wrong with WEP?!
(sarcasm boys)
That's all that they have here on Sicily where we are
What? Over 95% of WLAN in Sicily is WPA2, from my experience.
You must have met some of the 5% outdated/misconfigured stuff.
New provider's WLAN setup for consumer are ALL WPA2 and they have been WPA2 for years. Every public structure have WPA2 for sure. Every public university in Italy is part of EduRoam, so is WPA2 enterprise with RADIUS.You don't deal with the tourism rental business much, I would guess.
Of course, they are fully on-the-cheap regarding IT :). Mosh is your friend!
Mosh?
This one. Best thing since sliced bread, as you Americans usually say!
I take offense to that statement....
Is mixing LSI and software Raid a bad idea?
No... it's the best of both worlds, fake raid and hardware raid.... no problems there.... (sarcasm....)
@scottalanmiller said in What do you think about Windows Server Containers ? and are you using them ?:
We are not using Windows Containers. They are a good idea, but we phased out Windows already. No need to pay for all of that licensing
So don't pay....
@DustinB3403 said in I can't even:
Has logged into a ton of servers over several years, and has never signed out. . . . transitioning into a new position and wants to find where he's logged in. . . .
WTF
Gets even better, he's signed into 10-60 servers. . . . and is transitioning to Business Analyst.. . . um fired!

At least that's the joke...
And the orc leader is a mass murder.

@Mike-Davis said in analog video stream:
@stacksofplates Can you give me an example of a real camera?
Canon EOS or Nikon D3100, something not expensive but you can actually get good video with, esp with optical zoom.
These are not the type of camera needed . . . .

@Jstear said in Which comes first Laws or Lawyers:
@Nic What if the egg was laid by another species?
The proto-chicken laid the first chicken egg due to a mutation, which then became the first chicken.
So sudo-lawyers wrote the first laws.
There-go lawyers created laws before laws existed.
Ok so here's the goal, to be able to export the track changes from a document, and then to be able to edit those track changes to remove things such as "fixed a typo".
Short of using an online converter, which may be what we do, is there a better approach to doing this?
@Kelly said in Which comes first Laws or Lawyers:
This is a reflection on how my mind functions (?). I read the topic title, and then started this singing in my head:
"Laws and lawyers sitting in a tree
W-r-i-t-i-n-g
First comes laws, then comes lawyers, then comes litigations and lawsuits."
They rhythm breaks down there at the end...
To write you have to understand what writing is.
To trade you have to understand trade.
Trade is an exchange of items.
To find that balance, you have to be able to see a literal or fictitious scale and say, yep that is "equal" or to my benefit or theirs.
Whoever is calling "it" balanced and then writing that down as law, is a lawyer.
@jt1001001 No, not to me, but I don't pay attention to the cars around me like that.
Ok so lets look at this from a balance's (a scale) point of view.
We can even use Ghengis Khan in this example.
A balance has two sides to each, the goal of which is to balance out, correct? Or to find out the tipping point.
GK clearly created laws (do you dispute this?)
He also murdered thousands, and raped just as many (do you also dispute this?)
While creating the laws, he wrote them for his benefit, to tip the scales in his favor. He doesn't need to fully understand the repercussions of the laws he writing besides "these serve me" and "I have people who will enforce what I say".
That is a very basic understanding of balance.
He united modern china by force (murder etc), and creating rules to serve himself and those around him. He used force to ensure people listened to those laws.
He clearly wasn't a lawyer until he began creating laws to serve him self. He eventually went on to create laws of Eye for an Eye (I believe this was him) which made certain things illegal when he was firmly in power.
And people enforced those too.
Eventually he went on to create the modern lawyer in that, he couldn't remember everything, so he said, write this down, and commit it to memory.
Not to argue it, until other people were allowed to learn it, and then arguments came to arise about the law that existed.
But people like GK were clearly the first "lawyers" to create the law to impose on others, because they had the ability to enforce it onto others.
Laws were written by people to rule over others, but people smart enough to literally create laws out of nothing.
So what I'm seeing as the need is to try and prevent devices from accessing company resources while on anything but the work network.
Which this is exactly what VPN's are for.
You centralize all of your services behind the VPN, and force users to access them while connected to the network.
Redirecting the users My Documents folders etc back to a network share would mean none of the company data could ever be on the laptop.
Putting in a system policy to disable USB storage devices would add another layer of protection in that the data couldn't be copied off.
Of course that doesn't stop someone from using email to send out the files / information.
Let me give you this example.
If I get pulled over for speeding, I'm entitled to represent my self in court correct?
Doesn't this by definition make me a lawyer? I'd be insane to do so under most circumstances, but I'd likely have a solid understanding of the law if I felt confident to defend myself.

I fucking wish we could get pricing like that in Canada.
Have a buddy buy it for you and hand ship it up.
border agent: That's a nice server you got there.... be a shame if you had to... pay taxes on it! muahahahaha
Nothing to claim, a buddy gave me this equipment from his personal lab.
"In general, the goods you include in your personal exemption must be for your personal or household use. These goods include souvenirs, gifts that you received from friends or relatives living outside Canada or prizes that you won."
Canada customs gives no f(***)s about gifts, only charging taxes on everything
https://travel.gc.ca/returning/customs/what-you-can-bring-home-to-canada#conditions
Even in the US you pay gift taxes, they are actually higher near 50% tax rate, unless it is a gift to a spouse or political party.
Yeah the gift tax doesn't start until a value close to 6 Million US. as of 2015.
So you'd be more than in the clear.
