They a root canal to get to the bottom of this

“Tell me what you see as it’s starting back up” “It’s still the same screen…” “Ok, maybe it didn’t work. Walk me through your steps to restart it.” “I pressed the power button on the screen to turn it off. Press it again to turn it on.” “Oh, ok, ya. Click the the lower left corner of the screen with your mouse, then the power icon in that window that just popped up, then the word restart. More steps means it’s more thorough, so it should this time.”

Father of 4 chiming in: wrapping paper into a bag as you go, helps keep it as tidy as possible. Also, bins or baskets to put the unwrapped gifts into. That last one only works temporarily and is more a psychological band-aid that hurts when it’s removed when it inevitably stops working as desired, until bed time.

Right? 2025 on Earth still existed in Star Trek. There’s a non-zero chance you press the button and nothing happens… So you think it didn’t work and push it again only to end up with the BDSM elves…

I work a 4/3, my normal weekends are long weekends. Stat holiday Mondays make for an extra long weekend. Canada Day was a Tuesday this year so I took Monday off and got a 5 day weekend in exchange for 1 vacation day.

My water is too bougie and I can’t morally exploit it into poverty… Elevated plate it is.

I think grammatically they meant you could also get your face revoked, leading into the following sentence of being shot down.

That’s our scramble man!

I have an elitebook g6 running Linux just fine, I’m sure yours can too!

One of the previous owners of my house believed in rolling dice for how many Brad nails to use. It could contain anywhere from 1 to 100 in the casing.

I don’t get the calf cramps, but foot or ribs. Ribs are the fucking worst because hiw the fuck do you stretch that out?! I can only reach up so high! It’s not fair!

No, this is Patrick

When someone previously told a vrtx vm not to auto boot after power up and none of the remote access is working either… Both undocumented as well, of course. And your tired AF tech is statically configuring the wrong IP range on their laptop to manu because it’s been a long shutdown day and are also unfamiliar with the system in general (me). Good times, I figured it out though, but lots of sweating and swearing.

“What do you see when it’s coming back up?”

“Right back to the problem I’m having!”

“So you don’t see [insert OEM logo here]?”

“Nope. And it’s still frozen!”

“Where’s the power button you’re holding down?”

“On the monitor!”

Open the window and throw it out, please

I preemptively apologized for this a few weeks ago, but didn’t call it being the West’s fault. As stated before though, the states around and further south of Ontario and Quebec should brace themselves. It was a warm winter with nowhere near the proper amount of snow, so I expect a dry AF summer for us.

Not even bothering to get a fire permit this year, didn’t get to use it last year.

I got a 3M half mask with bayonet connectors, I’m good for round two!

Welcome to Costco, I love you!

Imagine they went with something Conservative Ultra Managers or something else even more insane…

Have they fixed enterprise sso yet?

That’s most of Canada really, outside of southern Ontario and Quebec. Sometime in the last 12 months Eastlink dropped their gigabit cable by $40 where I am so I’m hopeful for incoming competition finally. My 5 year goal is to move outside of town, so I’ll likely be going with skynet because I highly doubt I’ll have much choice.
