It's 91 degrees outside. I have the A/C blasting, and I just polished off 2/3 of a container of

Haagen-Dazs coffee ice cream. And you know what else?

1. Yum! For me, a the Haagen Dazs container is the serving size!

2. Google is seriously messing up DU today.

Others have had to log in, as well.

I hate (parts of) the internet.

6. I have been getting the same sh*t. Consistantly inconsistant. Works on Firefox no problem.nt

7. And the link works as I reply today.

Ddos protection or "too much traffic" from DU triggered something.

Providers want tons of traffic and they don't.

Go figure.

8. It's beyond the scope of my little geezer brain...😱..nt

9. I have an old geezer brain.

Smartness almost always means outsmarting myself.

I ran computer networks and ran into just about every problem imaginable, and some that were unimaginable.

People would ask me to troubleshoot and fix problems with the internet. Almost always it was some transient problem hundreds of miles away that techs were scrambling to fix.

So I looked busy, and the problem was fixed in a short while. My own equipment was easy to check in about a minute.

Retired. Enjoying piano and photography, and chiming in on DU when I feel either helpful, motivated, or in a devilish mood.

Computers are our friend, except when designed and managed by sociopaths. Unfortunately, they are.

10. I was the hospital IT liaison person when we were transitioning from film to digital..

Holy crap what a pain in the ass that was. Nobody in the hospital wanted to learn how to look up the images and would call at all hours of the nite so I could "flip a switch or something" to make it work. Sometimes it was the vendors fault and sometimes it was operator error.
Like you said I would look busy and it would fix it self or I would pass it up the chain. Of course the doctors would not admit they screwed up.. MD = Massive Denial...
I'm glad I don't do that work any more.

3. Sorry I'm out of haagen-dazs today, too hot to get to grocery.

[Callalily]

4. I LOVE Haagen-Dazs coffee ice cream.

I may have to run to the store later on and buy the single serving size!

5. Nah. Go big or go home.

YOLO!!!
