Just wondering once more about Netflix' navigation scheme.
Translated: Added 11 shows and movies during the last five days.
But you can't click on that to get a list of the new content. Odd.
Ooo, Advent Children is on Netflix? Hmm, Civ VI or Advent Children...
Full disclosure: they're paying for me to go to Spiceworld London due to me winning a drawing. I'm not getting anything else from them for mentioning their name here 
My first smartphone was a WP7 device, and I've only had WP devices since then. I recently got a Nexus 4 just to play with it. It doesn't have a SIM card right now, so I can't speak to the calling/texting experience, but it is hard to compare them. The app experience is night and day. There are so many options for Android. Frankly it is overwhelming. Anyhow, I like playing with the phone, but that is about it. I like to play games on it. When it comes to day to day functionality of phone/email/whatnot, my WP is a breath of fresh air. Some of that could be chalked up to familiarity, but while there are a few tasks that are easier or simpler on the Android, the majority are much easier to do on WP.

Interesting. I think that Android is going to be a big deal on the desktop once they get rolling with it.
And is going to make Windows XP pre SP1 look like a well patched, secure computing platform...
I'm game planning how my gnome sorceror can get eaten tonight by one of these: http://www.d20pfsrd.com/bestiary/monster-listings/magical-beasts/purple-worm and still survive. I just want to use Detonate so badly...

Oh... and this came up because they PM'd me in 2014 and I just got around to following up on it. I went to respond and realized I never got responses from them long ago, they weren't green anymore, I'd not heard anything more from them and so looked up their history. Steve and Tucker were their two community people. Steve was in Austin in 2014.
They were supposed to cover my trip to SWL14, and while they got my flight, they never reimbursed me for my hotel. No response to my emails.
Back into Endless Legend after beating Civ VI again. The story telling in Endless Legend is some of the best I've seen in a 4X.
You're not alone. You have to hack the functionality in, but it can be done: http://blog.danskingdom.com/powershell-ise-multiline-comment-and-uncomment-done-right-and-other-ise-gui-must-haves/.

@Kelly I absolutely love Endless Legend.
I originally got Endless Space because I'm a sucker for space based 4X games, and it was so well done that I started looking at the rest of their games. I'm still not convinced on Dungeon of the Endless, but I'll probably play it if I get it in a bundle. Either way, they make fantastic games, with an unexpected story that also allows modding. So much win

I would start my plan with
- 1x EdgeRouterLite
- 1x EdgeSwitch (increase to cover ports needed or add EdgeSwitchLITE for non-PoE)
- 4x Unifi AP-AC-LITE
On the ERL
- eth0 = WAN
- eth1 = WAN2 (or unused)
- eth2 = LAN or unused depending on VLAN requirement)
- eth2.XX = VLAN XX (repeat as needed)
Why Lite over PRO? (I'm not sure if I'm using the right nomenclature)

I was debating saying something similar, but hadn't yet worked up the energy to overcome my passive aggressive...

https://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=5153 This person had the same issue
Is there an openssh-clients package to install? I don't have a 6.7 server running to test on.
That was it. I had the below installed:
openssh-5.3p1-112.el6_7.x86_64
openssh-server-5.3p1-112.el6_7.x86_64
I ran yum install openssh-clients and now I have scp available. I'm going to test to see if this means I can now scp the file across.
@JaredBusch said in Non-IT News Thread:
Or, you know, it is reality.
Generally, people are born, live awhile, and then die.
Just because so much of the masses know these names does not change the number of people that die.
This. I found the whinging on social media during 2016 about who had died to be very tiresome. The "2016 is a terrible year because Bernie didn't get elected and <famous_people> died" comments. If you haven't thought about a person in 20 years, don't know them personally, and they die, you don't get to make a production out of how much you miss them.
Ok, I can now copy. Thanks for all the help. I have learned a lot in just this one issue.

Checking Active Directory state while sitting in the train for two more hours.
Wonder how we survived 20 years ago when there was next to mobile internet
People had more opportunities to learn to be patient?

Nope, they're incomparable. And frustrating...
