In other news, Yay, Friday! Has been a killer of a week here.

I actually think I said this like 2 days ago saying it was a "Monweek" just a week full of Mondays.

Didn't you go to a baseball game half way through the week, got to drink at said baseball game, then got to go home early?

Okay yes, Wednesday was a good day lol. It was a M,M,W,M,M type of week.

@scottalanmiller said in Sodium: Device Uptime:

Uptime in friendly numbers, rather than seconds, would be nice, too.

What? You don't want to figure out what 4829383 seconds is in terms up of days, hours, minutes and seconds? Here I thought everyone enjoyed that math.

@scottalanmiller I never understood the emotional response to socialism. If you don't agree with a concept then don't agree? Why get emotional about it?

The extremists on both sides of the fence tend to be extremely emotional. For instance I'm not for or against socialism personally but I do wonder as to whether or not we'll ever be able to see it in it's true form sure. But what we tend to be aware of is the extreme, smaller, emotional groups that are very vocal. Just my two cents.

Alright, we've had some releases that fixed some back end stuff (mainly efficiency and scalability). I do have profiles/avatars basically ready for release but I'm running into one last bug that needs to be fixed before I can in good conscience release it to production. I will finish this off first thing in the morning followed by some other work hopfeully!

That incitement bit has me confused - If I remember I might have to look into that more.

On the surface that seems to imply that if your speak incites someone to action, your speak is no longer protected... but I'm sure there is a lot more to it than that.

Essentially, speech that gets people to act violently against others isn't protected speech.

I tend to follow Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I have a dream" speech.

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.

Essentially, I don't care what you look like. I care about how you treat yourself and how you treat others without expectation of reciprocal treatment. If we each treat others as human beings, the way we want to be treated, then we will all have a better quality of life for both our individuals and society as a whole.

Couldn't agree more.

Hello everybody,

So this release actually ended up releasing on Sunday (at some time, unsure what time it actually released exactly). This release includes the ability to use avatars and also an organization editor. Now these ultimately are the foundation for a lot of work that has yet to be done. The way that the avatars work is that it will prioritize a local avatar (so if you upload one it will prioritize that), if there is no local avatar then we make a call to gravatar and draw from there. If there is nothing in either location than the default no avatar icon from gravatar will show. The organization editor is also a very base level module but will look to grow as everyone suggests more needs here. Right now you have the ability to edit the org name, the address, and the primary contact. I'm sure everyone will have suggestions on this so please feel free to let me know things you think should be included.

As per usual, thank you for all the feedback and concepts you guys would like to see implemented!

@quixoticjeremy get @RojoLoco to share his recipe with you

plz!

Damn, I guess I get to retype it...

Ok, get a 1 gallon glass carboy (yes glass, no not plastic or anything else)

Make sure you have some cheesecloth and a clean, food grade funnel and another glass container(s) that will hold basically a gallon of liquid

Get a 12oz bag of light roast coffee beans. Place them in a food processor or large coffee grinder and pulse until just coarsely cracked

Place said cracked coffee beans into aforementioned carboy. Fill to the top with cold spring water (this won't take quite a whole gallon. (Elementary school science will tell you why)

Cover the top with plastic wrap, shake it around a bit, then place into the fridge. Shake or stir at least once a day, every day for 4-8 days. Caffeination level is dependent on extraction time, so more time = more caffeine. When it has extracted long enough for you, strain through a few layers of cheesecloth into mason jars or other glass receptacles. Seal up containers and keep refrigerated. Don't start out with over 3-4oz at a time until you see how much it will crack you out. This is iced coffee concentrate, tread carefully.

I like mine over ice with a splash of 2% milk and maybe a whisper of cinnamon. On the weekend, I add some rum or bourbon as well.

Don't let your coworkers know that you have it or it will be gone. The cold brewing process makes the most clear, unobscured coffee flavor I've ever had.

I have to say, I didn't know that I needed this in my life until just now. Thank you good sir.

@nerdydad said in Sodium: considerably updated ui:

@quixoticjeremy Sodium is starting to look really good.

Thanks! We realized that we've been so focused on making the backend work properly that we finally decided we should put some effort into producing something front end that won't blind people lol. Now there is PLENTY more backend work to be done but at least now as we move along people won't be looking at a UI that looks like it's from 1990.

@biglittle said in What Are You Doing Right Now:

@quixoticjeremy Very true, didn't think of that....need more coffee

You need an avatar. Just having a big B as your avatar gets annoying lol. There are others that have that so when I just see a letter I tend to not associate it with a specific person.

@danp said in Sodium Filters / Views:

A couple of observations --

• When none of the Ticket Status checkboxes are checked, only open tickets are shown. I would expect all tickets to be shown.
• Need to be able to update / remove a View. Currently get the following when I try to Save Filter As View with an existing name

1. Well look at that on the first point. Will fix that today.
2. Valid points. Already on the list of things to do. Hopefully will get to this today as well

LOL rookie mistake.

@wls-itguy said in Issue Installing SodiumSuite on Windows Server and Desktop:

The same two that QJ grabbed from the IT abyss. I installed 4 total

All 4 are now showing properly :)! Looking into some other backend topics but these are resolved.

You could also substitute the Atlanta sunday paper for yellow pages. Their litter started showing up in my driveway a few weeks back... but I'm glad to have news print paper to light my charcoal grill.

Ugh. My local paper introduced a "free" Monday edition. The paper kid throws it on the porch every Monday morning. If were not there or don't notice it the wind picks it up and spreads it across our lawn. There was a reason I didn't sign up for your paper in the first place why would I want a free copy?

If you're quick enough, catch it and throw it back at him!

Or throw rocks at the little shite.

Be careful, all the paper boys might gang up on you and take you out the following day. Our papers will blot out the sun!

@wls-itguy You should potentially see it now. Something is definitely messing with the assignment job. I'll be spending my night on this apparently lol. In the meanwhile let me know if you see that machine when you get a chance.

@scottalanmiller said in Random Thread - Anything Goes:

truth

Just deployed a new update with the purpose of giving more space to the notation system (as we try to prep for external notes coming up) and thus we've taken some space away from the metadata:

Due to upcoming changings we felt that the ticket data was taking up far too much room and it needed a change. Hope that everyone enjoys!

Took the Fallout 4 plunge a couple of days ago. I'd forgotten how hard those games are in the early going when more than one of just about anything can kill you.

Yep... try modded hard mode. FUU it took me a few hours to get Sanctuary safe.

Any mod recommendations? I'm early enough that starting over wouldn't hurt too much.

Oh... yes all the mods. I've got a list somewhere let me dig it up.

There's a HUGE list of mods that make fo4 so much better. I have a list as well that I'll grab once I get home.

@scottalanmiller Wow that needs to look better. Jeez that's making me blind. Fixing that....

LOTS of work to be done this weekend. I feel the amount of sodium this weekend holds might give me a heart attack.

Interesting. I'll be sure to look into this.
