Fastest method around
  • We're in a tight spot, our service desk is outsourced while escalations or issues requiring hands on are sent to us. Problem is our service desk is a dumpster fire. I have regular meetings with their leadership to address this but it literally makes no difference. I recently caught that one of their agents we told them to remove from our contract was back and just as shitty and work avoiding.

    We're in the midst of replacing them with an internal regional team, but regional moves glacially slow. So we're in a "please use the service desk" and "fuck just email/teams me the details and I'll handle it when I have time" kinda situation. I'd love everything to go through tickets but I also know there's a 50/50 chance that service desk will fuck it up by camping on the ticket, sending it to our sister site who also uses them, or completely not understanding the situation and cocking up the ticket notes before escalating or closing the ticket...

    Recently they took a user complaint of a singular device being offline and noted it as "entire site is without network", giving it a priority 1 status and escalating to our on-call line.

    Sometimes they also take an actual P1 issue and dump into our queue without calling our hunt group or on-call number during business hours. We're project heavy so we don't hawk the ticket queue and it often leads us to missing the SLA of 30 minutes to assign the ticket to a tech.

    Dumpster. Fire.

  • This made me think of the game, of which I have lost, and will follow the rule this time.

  • Had my personal 9/11 yesterday rule
  • You rang?

  • Stare at it.
  • I dunno, I don't like unnecessarily interacting with strangers. I'm gonna go sit in another room and tinker with something else for now.

  • Stare at it.
  • Haven't heard of the proverbial cheeseburger.. gonna stare at this phrase for a bit.

  • It was my last summer at home before college too, but I did notice some aggressive webbing slowly overtaking the back shelf as the summer went. Only sign I knew I wasn't crazy, because I also never saw it again.

    Then the house sold while at college. Drove by a few weeks ago on my way through town and noticed the shed is now gone, guessing the buyer also saw the spider lol

  • We have many lakes and rivers, so dock spiders are common unfortunately. Wooded areas aplenty, so wolf spiders too. Then your common group of hanging out in the corners of your deck getting their full of mosquitos and black flies spiders. Those creeperass basement spiders with the long legs. I once also slammed my shed shut and fucked off back inside because of some furry palm sized bastard was chilling on the inside of said shed door.

    They may not be poisonous or dinner plate sized, but some are pretty aggressive and others look like they should be.

  • Anon is at a crossroads in life
  • I usually get that "this is fine" mantra going on repeat until it either touches me or I'm done and wig the fuck out of there. On the rare occasion I tell the spider we're fine so long as we leave each other be and it's all sunshine and rainbows. Brains are weird.

    The second there's more than 2 or it's bigger than a toonie I'm bringing fire though.

  • Not cool
  • It puts the homemade chilimac into the waffle iron

  • Maybe those 20 seconds were because of the lack of getting raises?
  • I've got quotes for a $30k bispectral. I'm really hoping I get to order one, but I highly doubt it..

  • How to clean your flat or house
  • Add a little liquid soap for nonporous surfaces like counters and stove tops, great grease and stuck-on fighter especially if combined with a scrubber. Damp cloth to wipe up after and you're shiny.

  • Smoke from Canadian wildfires reaches US, Minnesota under air quality alert
  • 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!

  • New Major Order - New Stratagem Choice
  • I just did a solo on easy to really get a better feel for the rocket. Still killed myself 2.5 times with it.. also, I don't suggest using it against drop ships, the range of the cluster gets huge lol it did not take out any of the 3 devastaters I fired it at either

  • New Major Order - New Stratagem Choice
  • I'd fired one off and instead of going towards the enemy it triggered the cluster in my face and the faces of my fellow Helldivers who were near me... 😵

  • "Sweet liberty!"
  • It shouted "feels good!" after getting up and stabbing itself in the neck!

  • New Major Order - New Stratagem Choice
  • They look kinda cool but are definitely meant to deal with swarms. They do slap pretty hard though. Haven't tried it on a heavy yet though, it killed too many friendlies on my first run with it this morning.

  • Is it possible to remove or drastically mitigate boar taint?

    Pretty much the title. We bought a pig, not knowing about boar taint so didn't inquire about the state of the pig (gender, age) beforehand. First cook and it's heavily present.

    Will trimming off all the fat and boning it help mitigate the taint (and crossing my fingers here so hard it hurts) or remove it altogether? Anyone have experience on this problem?
