Laughs in Factorio

Factorio Space Age, but it wasn’t on sale.

Probably not. The Hush Money case is a state case, not a federal case. Presidential pardons (up till this point) are only valid for federal crimes.

CHUFA

Of course he is! He’s named after one!

If you are worried your mail in ballot is having issues, many states will allow you to cast a “provisional ballot” that only gets counted after they verify if your mail in ballot was processed.

In b4 McD’s changes the franchising agreement to require all events with media present to be approved by McD’s corp prior to the event.

Joining the “IANAL” and “YMMV”: The big catch here is that at no point in the production process can it have over 0.3% by weight, so you can’t just add a concentrate to the item if the concentrate is over 0.3%.

Pride.

Not having a term limit should keep you impartial since you don’t have to keep people happy, you just need to do what you believe is correct in the eyes of the law. The problem is that it also removes accountability.

I would expect it to work like a galvanic anode.

Thanks for responding in good faith!

I agree that while CS did screw up in pushing out a bad update, only having a single vendor for a critical process that can take the whole business down is equally a screw up. Ideally companies should have had CS installed on half the systems and a secondary malware prevention system on every DR and “redundant” system. Having all of a company’s eggs in a single basket is very bad.

All the above being said; to properly implement a fully redundant, to the vendor level, system would require either double the support team, or a massive development effort to tie the management of the systems together. Either way, that is going to be very expensive. The point being: Reducing the budget of IT departments will further cause the consolidation of vendors and increase the number of vendor caused complete outage events.

It feels like you have an agenda that you are trying to apply to the CrowdStrike event and just so happen to slandering IT as an innocent bystander to the agenda you are putting forward.

If you had to summarize the goal of your initial post in less then 10 words, what would it be?

Maybe they should offer a real time patcher for the security vulnerabilities in the OOB KVM, I know a great vulnerability database offered by a company that does this for a lot of systems world wide! /s

bloated IT budgets

Can you point me to one of these companies?

In general IT is run as a “cost center” which means they have to scratch and save everywhere they can. Every IT department I have seen is under staffed and spread too thin. Also, since it is viewed as a cost, getting all teams to sit down and make DR plans (since these involve the entire company, not just IT) is near impossible since “we may spend a lot of time and money on a plan we never need”.

The small one with the blanket!

This is a really smart work around! Thanks! I would still appreciate if I didn’t have to use an alt, so I am going to leave this post up.
