@garak0410 ok i have to ask how the heck do you get to trial computers? I really want to get on that one so i can get new gear!

i have noticed something, as i was using IE9 and having ML open in FF29 i noticed the new posts jumping in increments of 14 new posts each minute. Not sure what is causing this but just something i saw. in 5 minutes i had 72 new posts.

@alexntg you are correct, however if people haven't updated like some that i know this is still a very real possibility

somehow i don't think this is right?

@Bill-Kindle good to hear. It seems like each week we are hearing about new vulnerabilities in devices that are public facing

@Bill-Kindle any possibility this happened to you since you were saying you were having issues with your NAS?

Interesting news regarding synology nas units

so even after the last update i am still getting false updates. Just got back from lunch and it said there were 200 new posts. Somehow in half an hour i doubt that
edit: on top of that now i'm not getting notifications when i am tagged in a post.

waiting for business approval to get one ordered. I have a quote for it just waiting for the signature and i will have it ordered.

@ajstringham which is your favorite out of linkin park and 30 seconds to mars?

that was a pretty awesome game last night with the US v Ghana. Dempsy scored in 32 seconds, bad news altidore might be out with a strained hamstring which is being scanned today to confirm. Dempsy possible broken nose, besler with a possible hamstring issue, bedoya with some ailment. Beyond being a little banged up there is plenty of rest until the portugal game on sunday.

@technobabble yeah that was an interesting phone call from my dad. I have never seeing such a varying degree of damage in electronics. It took out some things but left others in tact like a clock radio from the 80's. That thing still works but a newer lenovo tower, dead as a door nail.

@technobabble some do however depending on how far the strike was from your house that could have implications as well. I have seen it first hand where lightning struck just outside of my parents house and by just outside i mean a tree in their yard 15 feet from the house. My dad had UPS's on all computers, high end surge protectors on his flat panel tv's and so on. The lighting due to the proximity to the house fried most of the tv's, furnace control board, 3 of the 4 computers including 1 laptop and a few analog single line phones. This was all caused by the amount of electricity in the air. It didn't matter what kind of stop gap was in place to protect against this, it happened.

does weird al count at a county fair? lol
edit: i was 15 at the time

@IT-ADMIN any recent changes to a gpo (if you have one)?

i have to ask have you/user rebooted? When did this issue start? Did it start after you released updates? Have you updated the graphics drivers?

@garak0410 as i was told by the sales reps the 1/2 dock won't work with the 3 because of the size difference.
