If anyone fancies a little throwback can't beat ol' reliable

Safe mode has saved me more times than i wish to count, thankfully gone are the days of having physical appliances

I fobbed off the NSX-V appliance just before Christmas and replaced the dirty routers with virtual Mikrotik appliances, even the VMware partnership renewal they wanted just shy of £1k to keep our reseller ability. i can see it heading the same way as messagelabs very quickly

Thankfully the cluster licences we can renew, but the horizon licences they'll only do subscription which may be looking at a 4-500% increase annually, potentially going from 13.5k to 70k annually, normally we'd offload that cost off to the customers but it might be a struggle to justify that to...

Currently sitting in a technical directors role for a small startup msp, previously in cloud architect role, spend most the time studying new tech, but currently dreading the vmware renewal come the end of the year, already planning the neccessary changes to potentially have to migrate from the...

from what i remember Tailscale is a pretty overlay for wireguard, it's been popping up a lot more recently and seems to be a handy replacement for clunky ipsec client-server vpns

always up a a bit of good grub

Calendar has been cleared for this

AI, such as ChatGPT, could replace jobs, raising concerns about unemployment despite potential benefits.

I find it a bit similar to the release of powershell, it's going to reduce the amount of monotonous repetitive tasks, writing a script could've taken a number of hours to get going initially with additional tweak time. whereas now can have a template pumped out in 20 minutes and another 20...

From experience, depending on the company size, some look for qualification purely to fill quotas for supplier discounts to get people in the door will little to no experience, Help-desk/First-line support experience can be drawn on from other customer facing roles (restaurant FOH/sales...

Personally i've found putting the mouse on a watch/clock and let the ticking move the mouse, gets round the audit logs of usb being plugged in/out and can usually be picked up for a few quid

It will just show up as a usb mouse, so unless they've locked it down to only being able to use supplied mice it will work without a problem

Don't worry, i have a tow bar now ;)

it seems to be a cold joint on the relay in the fuseboard, all being well that will be sorted before july, the mechanical pump had blown it's seal so wouldn't hold fuel pressure whilst on track, i'm just using it as a lazy immobiliser for the moment, aiming to get the torque limiter mapped out...

It's still not fixed but a swift kick to the fusebox gets it going second time round. Hopefully this time round it won't dump it's coolant in the pits

I think this runs true

i guess the benefit of the gripper over the blackline being 5:1 is 5*0 is still 0 traction :LOL:

A nice blackline is budget friendly for the mini boxes, certainly helps put the power down out of the corners. helps pushing the braking a bit further without the abs intruding.

It is a bit of a shame, as i've found out with the mini, almost everything important is torqued to degrees rather than staged nm

A small birthday treat to myself, nice to use, can get an export report of all the torque values, the rundown impact feature is quite handy but personally it feels a bit gimmicky. feel like i should have invested in some Gedore or Norbar to cover the same range

If i can get enough fuel pressure in the morning i'll be along to this

Im not sure what was in the fish and chips, but they we're banging

Apologies to anyone of saturday night that may have been woken up by what sounding like a hammer on a wok, fuel pump decided to start packing in on the hearse :ROFLMAO: It made it within 30 feet of my front door before deciding to completely pack in

Absolutely cracking weekend, was great seeing everyone

From what i've heard there's a deployment of mobile speed cameras nearby

Was planning on biking it up, but decided to road test the hearse and all being well it might survive the trip up :ROFLMAO: power steering pressure switch likes to go pop, unplug and might see it shoot a stream out
