I'm trying to download a 23GiB archive. It keeps disconnecting me at ~5GiB, and Chrome won't resume because it thinks the file download completed.

The Salesforce conferences have pretty good post-conference free drinks and after parties.
My boss would consider anything productive a bonus but realise it's not the point of me going. She'd be there for the same reason.

@hungrier DDF is in full effect
I'm not sure if that means they tried to pick it up twice or the driver fell into two black holes, or what happened, but whatever the case I now have to reschedule for Saturday at the earliest. Amazon expects me to return it by the 8th so who even knows if I'll get my money back.

Go to the nearest Kohl's?

@izzion said in The Official Status Thread:
nearest Kohl's
Just for fun, I tried to use their store locator, and am no closer to finding out if they actually have anything even remotely close. According to their map, they have nothing in NY state anywhere near the Canadian border, except if I zoom in just right while looking at Vermont, and then Plattsburgh, NY appears. Or, again only at the right zoom level, one appears in Watertown which happens to be close to an actual border crossing. But even that one is in some quantum state of existence where it is and isn't there:
-
@hungrier you could ship it to the nearest Kohl
-
@TimeBandit Only if I could figure out where it is

status Furnace guy is here. Of course, to do what he needs to, the furnace has to run. My office desk is right above a vent. It's getting very warm in here... (it's also 92F outside right now)
edit: Damn, sounds like the circuit board is dying. $2200 to replace. System is almost 20y. Recommendation is to replace the system... Sigh. At least it's not winter yet...

I'm not anti-social. I'm anti-do-nothing-but-chatter-about-ineffective-things-for-hours. If there's a party where there's more going on than "hur durr politics" and "Joey and that scandal ohmai!" I'd be more interested. When there's drinking involve, in my opinion, the quality drops proportionately.
I have yet to find such an event.

Not sure I count getting the runs as a perk of conference food

Too low leveled and my techno wizard is too fragile for it. Went with the nomad ending. A good ending for V and Judy. I have a soft spot for happy family endings.
Didn’t actually like V much as a character. I can’t put my finger on why. Probably something to do with liking Johnny more. Don’t think I’ve come across any character who hates corpos as much as I do.
Probably go for a nomadic terminator with a heart of gold this time round instead of a sociopathic netrunner.

And the dedicated aws team can’t expose an image on aws. This is turning out to be a cracking Friday and I was going to skip it.

@DogsB somehow I am reminded of a famous little ditty…

Forget about your sin
Give the audience a grin

I briefly hoped you were going to dox me with an eventual firing in the offing.
status I held up a release. I forgot to add a prefix to the five files that were to be manually uploaded to aws.
I sent a zip of files. They told me the files had the wrong prefix. I asked for the zip. They emailed it back to me. I downloaded the zip containing the five files. Extracted. Added the prefix. Zipped them again. And emailed them back. The release started again.
I’m not sure what happened here.

Most people aim for a little more plausible deniability when they're trying to get offed.

Effectiveness has been calculated at four epsilon squared on top of the typical inverse triple squared locality ratio. But yes, I can be felt over the wire.
