  1. Jordan forced Abe Pollin and the Wizards to finally try and field a competitive team. That's his greatest accomplishment. Jordan made Honest Abe look like a fool and made him spend a dollar.
  2. My buddy with his big green egg had one piece of advice for me. Buy it from a place that will deliver and set it up. He said trust me. Ordered Black Crack based on a recommendation in this thread. Family loves it.
  3. My wife works for the best DUI attorney in Anne Arundel County in MD. This is exactly what you do. You don't give them anything. Now in MD they will suspend your license for refusing the breathalyzer. But your attorney doesn't have to defend what you blow. Say nothing, do nothing, and ask for an attorney.
  4. Well we don't use lync or skype, etc. My developers use the free version of slack and we do business using webex and other methods. I don't have any IT infrastructure to speak of other than some development linux stacks/vm's. I also have no IT support so to speak. My developers built the development environment to include openstack accumulo etc. What my developers wont do is manage an exchange server, which means I would have to hire someone. That's not cheap.
  5. I only use Rackspace as an exchange server. I get all my MS office licenses from 365. When I moved to Rackspace they didn't offer the Office suite. And not sure what addons you are referring to. I just use email and calendar.
  6. Well as with everything in life, it's not all black and white. I used to have a different provider for my exchange email. Without getting into the gory details I went through, the provider was "migrating" my companies email from exchange like 2007 to 2012 or something at the time. They knocked out my email for a week. Pissed me off. My IT wanted me to move email providers. I was so pissed off about the week long outage and skiddish I was opposed to moving. Long story short, Rackspace had by far the cleanest and most comforting option of not only providing the new exchange servers but migrating my entire companies email.
  7. Obviously it is a cloud solution. And not sure how I could get more out of it. I get exactly what I need.
  8. You went to a cheap italian restaurant. If they don't have soup, salad, and breadsticks they aren't a knockoff. All italian places offer the same ****.
  9. LOL tshile, I am pretty sure you were busting my b's saying I should have used Microsquish instead of Rackspace. Regardless, if you are running a corporation you are in a no win situation. At least buying Office 365 you get some level of hope for backup recovery and continuous uptime. Hiring some certified exchange schlub isn't much of a better option imo. Keeping your own servers, backups, backup power, etc. We are prisoners of technology and the buildings that house it and the clowns that manage it.
  10. On ES, the measure of success seems to be spending as a percentage of the GDP. A real win for everyone.
  11. You seem to imply there is a difference in the two policies and one is better than the other. I would like an explanation of how things are better for either party.
  12. He said the black prints fine from the browser. I invested in a laser printer for my home. It costs more up front but I think in the long run it pays for itself. Plus the quality is way better.
  13. I don't know what IS is, but as a teenager sitting through the abortionist sucking sound and watching the bag filled with blood and being thankful that my parents wouldn't find out....well it wasn't about Holy or morality but hiding. I am pro choice but the process is barbaric and if you haven't lived it you probably shouldn't have an opinion. But you are a white male so my opinion doesn't count.
  14. Did you say Hillary Plant? Bill Clinton can thank Ross Perot for getting elected. Now Hillary gets to thank Trump. History repeats itself.
  15. You gotta beat the champion. Great fight.
  16. The smartest move for him is to do a one year deal with OKC. It has been all year. I would say that is foregone, but we will see if he goes against the grain.
  17. He has always been signing a 1 year deal with the Thunder, it was only a question amongst the hopeful.
  18. Comparing the NFL salary cap and the NBA pay structure is just dumb.
  19. Well in America 1/3rd of those smart millennials are still living with mommy and daddy. I hear it's worse in Britain.
  20. I guess they listened to Trumps advice.
  21. I am disappointed only for the fact that getting drafted in the lottery I would think would help future recruits. I wish him well. He cost himself a lot of money not waiting another year as did Carter.
  22. I heard on the radio he has 4 significant items in his past a team asked him about. Dopey was honest about them and admitted they were all true. The team appreciated his honesty but the 4 things were so egregious that the team seemed scared to take a chance. I was excited to get him as a Terp, but he definitely played with little energy a lot of the time and looked as if he didn't work hard and had just been the best player on the court his entire life. When going against stiffer competition, he was butter soft. I couldn't believe it today when the guy said he might drop out of the first round. I kept hearing his potential would guarantee him a top 15 slot.
  23. Diamond "Dopey" Stone made a mistake. I knew he wasn't ready, but I didn't know he has a lot of baggage which is scaring teams. He played soft for us all year and wasn't reliable. One more year and his draft stock could have been a lot more solid. Maybe a good lesson for some future MD players.
  24. I hear ya. I am shocked at how many resumes I get with job hoppers. 12 years 14 jobs, crap like that. And we are always looking for female technologists, they just aren't that plentiful. I think many females end up taking more creative web design type positions rather than hardcore coding or sys admin/network admin. When I was working for 2 major relational database vendors, there were a lot of women who did relational database work.
