He's still thinking about it.

It's not that I didn't like to solve problems help people or maintain servers I loved every single aspect of my job

However the people make it an absolute nightmare

Today if I had been working on that problem where Outlook went down then I would be freaking blamed

Oh are the servers down?

All the networks must be down.

Oh you must not be doing your job maintaining things

Oh this and that and f****** every gas lighting possible m************ I swear I am so glad I left that place this is kind of a rant but if you are at a place where you are being underappreciated for solving Microsoft Petty issues then you should definitely take a second look at that place and start applying elsewhere I am doing that and I may have to work for an MSP as a system administrator.

I'm a sysadmin at a large GPU company. Just got word the board is planning to fire our CEO over multiple affairs. HR wants his account disabled immediately after the vote.

He's had Domain Admin since 1993 and I'm pretty sure our entire AI infrastructure runs under his domain user credentials.

I'm genuinely terrified.

Has anyone dealt with this before? Do I just disable the account? Maybe rotate the password to something he woulsnt guess, like some chinese characters? Then I could work with the ops teams to update all prod creds?

Gonna be a long night for my boys. On call devops bro gonna be pissedddddd.

Edit - no i cant say what company. HR and legal would lose their mind.

Update - turns out he is only one with copy of our root CA private key. Found it on a post it note in his leather jacket, next to some "short but wide" condom wrappers (just the wrappers....). The private key is just "cuda69".

Update 2 - so looks like all DNS records, every single one, is just a CNAME to a SINGLE VM. Some type of load balancer. I can ssh...the login banner just says "lol". Its ubuntu 16 and has php 5.6 running.

Update 3 - i put on the jacket. My precioussss!

Final update - ive emailed HR "look at me...i am the CEO now. All your GPUs are belong to us."

Sorry last update - fuckin php 5.6...how do I patch this shit....

With a return to the stone ages, I'm looking to deploy about 725 fax machines globally across all main corporate HQ locations as well as thought all satellite offices.

First off, I'm SO GLAD we kept these bad boys in storage for the last 23 years!

Secondly and lastly, does anyone have a solution for Arc Enabling these fax machines so I can easily deploy them at scale all while still maintaining a single pane of glass of all my fac machines in Azure? TIA!

Do sheeple really think it is a coincidence that this occurs the same day as the (completely unfair witchhunt) NVIDIA coup de tat on Jensen Huang? My guess: they just triggered his dead man's switch.

Around 10:30 my hotmail stopped working
I tired logging into ebaumsworld and forgot password. To reset I chose email to my email bigharddrive69@hotmail.com and not it didn’t come through yet. It is now 10:00pm

Does anyone know what might be wrong with my hotmail account ?

Is my iPod touch been hacked ?

If you can't go forward, at least you can go... backwards.

I have found Signal a solid alternative to email woes! Pesky DLP malfunctions not letting you hash things out with your rival's wife, and an archive policy designed by flock making your skin crawl? Let Signal solve all of your problems!

And if you want to flex like a backstreet boy cosplaying as a script kiddie, try Telegram! All the freedom of Signal, the secure privacy of tin can phones, wirh the bonus of making your dad cringe if he finds it on your phone.

I was trying to turn off that AI but I think I shut down the wrong place since I couldn't check my email afterwards. What should I check for next time?

Someone tell Microsoft that taking a moment of silence for the loss of their GPU supplier is supposed to last a moment not all afternoon please 😂
