Can I get confirmation of accuracy?

Happy Thanksgiving you lot

Coming from a close neighbor, seems legit

what a darn shaky day on the roads yesterday.
started to move out from behind a van, had had a good look up the road before hand, nothing there, stuck me head out, whoa, a bloody 4WD coming at me.
coming home, had a DH tailgate me at 100kmh/60mph most of the way home on roads with no one else on 'em. this person had a real problem with space and distance, just irrationally close.
i slowed down and let 'em pass, then i did something im not proud of, but was so pissed off.
i got the jack handle ready at the T intersection we both had to stop at just in case.
I just cannot stomach tailgaters, the action makes no sense. if you can see you're coming up on someone, plan your move so you spend as little time behind them as possible. don't come up behind and just wait there hoping this guy will speed up.

Taking the day off to go do filming in the mountains. Just waiting for my rental car to arrive. And charging up camera batteries. Doing the drive from Leon to Matagalpa today!

Enduring a stubborn 5yo who insists that her tooth feels like it's ready to fall out but that it won't come out no matter how much she twists and turns and messes around with it.... At this rate my jokes about having to blend her food are looking more like a reasonable option...

Also had to run the snowblower for the 1st time this fall / winter so there's that

Waiting for the train at 6:30am to go into the office 🥺
Office had a power cut and the switches are doing strange things. Think a call to Dell might be required

Us US folks still recuperating from Thanksgiving?

About to head out to the company's 25th anniversary celebration. Hopefully a bit better than just a longer than normal day.

Fed up and frustrated with 'security walls' in place... and having to 'remote' to a computer to re-start a (poorly built) service...

Anything that I can do to manage the service on a remote computer via script is a win in my book.. so off to the Google pot again to find how I can deal with this service without 'delay'.

Enter Elevated CMD prompt and the SC command.

sc \\Remote_Device query triposservice

SERVICE_NAME: triposservice
        TYPE               : 10  WIN32_OWN_PROCESS
        STATE              : 4  RUNNING
                                (STOPPABLE, NOT_PAUSABLE, ACCEPTS_SHUTDOWN)
        WIN32_EXIT_CODE    : 0  (0x0)
        SERVICE_EXIT_CODE  : 0  (0x0)
        CHECKPOINT         : 0x0
        WAIT_HINT          : 0x0

Great - Glad to see the crap-nugget still running. But this give me ammo on building MY solution to have to restart this damned service on a weekly basis.

sc \\Remote_Device start triposservice

Now - just have to wait for it to 'fail' to test it as I'm not about to stop it mid day. They'd panic and call me on the phone about it.

Eh - I am up, not sure about the thinking part yet. However I have a old portable battery I may try to sort out. The 3s2p battery that was in it failed - I have plenty of batteries so I can repair and augment it's storage. but do I WANT to....

Up early on a Saturday... not sure why. Coffee is brewing and we have a bunch of duck eggs, so I think I see brunch in my future. Also have to apply a code update to our fancy, new storage appliance.
