This is a first for me folks. I was configuring a Linux server on my home network, and while troubleshooting, I noticed my darn Wemo smart plug won the master browser election lol. Has this ever happened to anyone?
By feed, I mean this was a screenshot taken from someone else.
That a real listing.
Guess ill need my crimpers, nail gun and pipe wrench.
Hi, I got a job as a system administrator. My trainer told me that I can incorporate SQL with my training as there are clients who look for this profile. Is there anybody who could guide me a little bit about this?
Like, seriously, I know everyone goes on about how nuts Stockton Rush was, and the fact they used a Bluetooth controller. But from a SysAdmin perspective...
What is Windows blue screened? What if the Bluetooth driver failed, with no way of reinstalling said driver, and therefore no control? They seem to be using Internet Explorer to access something somehow internally hosted from what I can see...
Does anyone else think this is bat sh*t crazy?
Just came across this post, and this was my response as a sysadmin who too often has to hear about how someone's cousin's friend's in-law acquaintance knows how to do it cheaper when I'm asked to do freelance work:
Staff: The mainframe is down! Call the engineer ASAP!
CFO: The bill is $10k! What did he do?
Staff: I dunno, he was here for 15 mins, changed something, then left.
CFO: What the F?! I want an effing itemized invoice of what this effing f did!!!
Invoice:
1 stainless stew screw - $0.50
Replacing 1 stainless steel screw - $0.50
Knowing which stainless steel screw to replace - $9,999.00
