And then they delivered it anyway. At 9:30pm. By ringing the doorbell, which made the dogs go nuts, which woke up the kids. Good job Amazon Logistics.

In other news today @Tsaukpaetra does a/b testing with a 16 core VM versus the bare-metal 20 core host to see if this is still an option (since I believe the biggest bottleneck is the disk access during packaging and distribution).
Initial compile essentially failed. Took 39 minutes for it to do so though.
So, 8 minutes to 40. That's.... kinda weird. Perhaps the 8 minutes wasn't a full recompile, will have to re-run that too.... :(

Status: Working late while being involved in upgrading a client from Win2003/SQL 2005 to Win/SQL 2012 while pulling forward:
- an Access application
- a DotNetNuke install that's 4 or 5 versions behind
- a SQL CE installation that is not compatible with SQL 2012
- an update for a .NET app for Windows 5 CE to work with a new SQL CE installation
And all that while dealing with their IT support person handling emails in order disregarding if there is a newer email that contains any additional info or answers, and also outright skipping some emails/making multiple email chains.

They refunded the whole order. So I got it for free. I should have ordered more stuff. Getting the kids woken up at 9:30pm is not worth $30.

I had that happen once in my own project.
No amount of setting -Zm command line helped - I ended up having to remove some headers from the PCH...

Status: Skipped 12 days and 1k posts in this topic, because
Status: Increased RAM from 6GB to 16GB. Which means Chrome can now grab 15GB, and everything else is just as short of memory as before. Seriously, I gave up typing numbers from Task Manager into Calc somewhere around 6GB, and there was at least another 2–4GB worth of Chrome processes. One single Chrome process was using 1GB by itself. Chrome, how about you play nice with the rest of the computer, huh?

Once upon a time apparently I needed it. Apparently I've had it since at least September 2014.
It's been so long, even FaceBook itself doesn't remember me adding it...
Edit: Apparently it was from before even that, supposedly I added my PayPal account early 2012.

Which, considering I have $3.10 should have gone through, right?
Nah, of course not...

Status: Continuing my trend of buying old test equipment, I took delivery of a Keithley 178 today. It was advertised as being in non-working condition and that the display would flash on for a second when you turned it on and then it would go back off. I figure it is probably a bad capacitior.
I take it out of the box, plug it in, turn it on and that is exactly what it did. Hmmmmm, someone has pushed in both the AC and DC selector switches. I clear that state and select DC and it works just fine. In perfect condition and is within calibration as best I can test (which means it is good enough for my purposes).
Got it for $20 delivered.
I need to stop buying this stuff.

@coldandtired I had not thought of mixing drinks with it. That seems like a damn good idea, now that I think about it.
I had always considered making an automatic bartender. The idea would be a string of nozzles and you would set a glass down on a platen and it would move along and get all the ingredients. The stir bars could mix it.

Well, yes, that was a deliberate part of the joke I was making :P

Strange thing is they play fine when downloaded and opened in a native player. Just Chrome CEF is being awkward I guess...
