Mmm. Ya ya. No argument. But its iDRAC. I’ve had to sit through enough propaganda. I’m pretty sure about this.

Mmm. Had to look this up. Good stuff.
I hate it when my boss says that. Or he will call it “D-RAC”. Annoys the hell out of me.
It’s iDRAC.
Yes, there are components that are called RAC, but the Dell out of band management system is called iDRAC.
… but that’s not as dumb as when he calls the SuperMicro system “iLO”. That’s IPMI. We don’t even own any HPE. I’ve no idea why he’s stuck on iLO.
I keep a Windows 2008 w Java 6 VM on ice for administering old Java console shit like that.
The VM is unsafe as hell. Completely virgin unpatched. The only protection is that I don’t give it a gateway or dns, and I shut it down when its not in use.
And it works. Old Java shit can still be used.
VMware does this with its virtual networking. If a change takes it offline, it automatically rolls it back. It can be frustrating at times, but mostly its saved my ass.
This is the NetAdmin’s problem. And he’s got 3 ways to get into the datacenter, so he goddamn well better have an answer that doesn’t involve airfare. Worst case, he’s gotta use remote hands, but that would be embarrassing, and I’d not let him forget it. Nobody forgives me when I screw up a server cluster, so he gets no latitude when he takes a datacenter offline.

I acknowledge that this is spoonula thing is happening … but its madness.
I don’t entirely understand, and something in me rebels against doing so.
These are such great names.
I dated a Dutch girl years ago. Marjan made the Dutch language sound … silly, totally charming.
This is my favorite. My utensil is hereby declared to be a Pan Licker.
I guess I get to put it in whatever drawer I want. It’s the only Pan Licker I’ve got. No rules!
I’m gonna break one of my rules and explain my joke …
Where I live, the things behind it are spatulas. And so is the red rubber thing. And they are clearly not the same.
… So that’s funny. Err … well I think its funny. I’m not very funny.
I love you people.
I thought that would be a funny pic, but I don’t think I expected so many fun terms from around the world.TLDR … Spatchula and its variants wins by far.
Got some good entries in the Creative category.

If its true, its ancient history, and I’m tired of it. I learned javascript when it was a babe, and watched many other platforms fall by the wayside. I’m not defending anything about it, but javascript works. Still.

Grandma can’t see the pins anymore to take them out.
She made me a lovely quilt. I’m pretty sure I’ll never be done pulling pins out of it.
Treat that vest very carefully for a while. No sudden moves.
