If it’s because of the AT-AT picture, and y’all are getting sued by Lucas, I apologize.

Related to that, I’d recommend anyone who hasn’t yet to read Easy Riders, Raging Bulls. Really interesting stuff on Lucas during that time and thoughts on him from friends and family.

No. It’s not worth trying to get the insurance company involved. It’s not directly in the line of sight so I’ll probably just just one of those repair kits that basically inject some sealant so that at least it won’t get bigger.

Don’t do that. Call Safelight. They did a spectacular job on my car and the seal has held for five years.

I got screwed by an auto glass company after someone broke into my car.

good morning everyone, I don’t usually post on this thread but I saw a great video of a Budweiser commercial that is going to run during the super bowl. You guys have probably seen it but it is a flash mob type thing that shows up at a hockey game. I don’t know how to post the link for it. I think someone with more linking knowledge then me should find it on Youtube and link it here. It is really good.

here’s my territorial behavior coming out. Don’t confuse the Sys Admins with the Helpdesk staff. Helpdesk is more typically an entry level position and usually Sys Admin positions require 3-5years IT exp just to qualify.
Helpdesk technicians – Tier 1 answering phone calls
Desktop technicians -Tier 2 working on users machines
Systems Admin – Tier 3 work on servers, usually several years as a tech first then moved up.
Sr. Systems Admin – Tier 3/4 more experienced, typically 5+ years SA experience
Obviously every place is different but it just irks me to be lumped in with helpdesk when I’ve been doing this 14 years and am responsible for millions of dollars in server hardware and a team of Admins. Yes this is petty to some extent but it really does annoy me when everyone assumes IT is all the same and doesn’t recognize the amount of work I’ve put in to get where I’m at and assumes I’m the same level as a tech with 6 months experience.
/ranting
ok re reading this I realize that this topic may have hit a nerve for me and I might have possibly reacted maybe a little strongly.
....
bastard. but it did make me laugh.
XKCD once again reminds you why you never screw with a Sys Admin

nope, because there are reasons those things aren’t always automatically updated. the Java and Flash updates are notorious for breaking legacy applications and it’s easier to do an update after it’s been verified than it is to fix a problem with the user down.
We also automate all the patches so it doesn’t require someone at the computer but we are also a big shop. 900 workstations and 250 servers. I’ve worked in smaller places though and done the sneakernet updates.
we are being more cautious of what we post….no really busy here too

Yes, I know, chocolate is toxic to dogs. They both are acting totally fine, however. Of course, now I get to worry the rest of the day. Fortunately, the tub was two thirds empty, but still. That’s maybe a cup or so of those things.

That small amount shouldn’t do much harm. In all reality, I think I’ve heard that chocolate is more dangerous in higher quantities than that.

The purer it is (less sugar, less milk) and the smaller the dog, the more danger there is. With medium to large dogs, eating the little bit of chocolate around the fruit is probably not going to cause harm.
It’s a good thing they were chocolate-covered cranberries and not chocolate-covered raisins, though. Raisins even in small quantities can be very poisonous to dogs.

At this point, they’ve tarnished the brand. While I don’t think I’ve ever donated, I’ve certain bought a product or two with a pink ribbon on it (food, not a blender or anything). I’ve never been a fan of how they operate, too much in the way of promotion. I don’t like walk-a-thons, telethons, etc. I’d rather see the sponsorship money go directly to the cause.

BIG ASS series this weekend for Michigan as we host Miami (OH) for two. Our remaining schedule is weak and ready to be demolished — home series vs. Bowling Green to close the regular season, for example — so a pair of wins this weekend would go a long way towards ensuring a CCHA regular season title and a 1 seed in the NCAAs.
