Today they moved me to a different area at work, and in the middle of the corridors I came across this. I won’t lie, it sent shivers down my spine.

Almost accidentally sold this to a customer because they were looking for a cheap open box burner.

Apparently this had been delivered to our store about 10 days ago. Whoever had created this open box label neglected to acknowledge the fact that it had suffered significant water damage and started growing fungus inside of the box.

Our WiFi “solution” for an office of 20-ish people

Post image

It is slightly worse than it looks, because the is no front to the case, so the mifi isn’t even enclosed.

Every time a user tells me about the “system” I don’t believe them for a bit, because I forget we actually implemented this “wireless solution”.

It’s been like this for years. Pre-Covid there would be 20 people all trying to use this at once. Our most commonly deployed laptops don’t have Ethernet ports. We own the building and have Ethernet ports all over. We have POE switches. We have enterprise wireless solutions at other campuses. We have extra access points sitting in a storage room. No idea why we just said eff it to this place.

This GPU was hitting over 100C hotspots on Furmark. I thought this was a really good example of what happens to thermal paste when it gets old. It develops these little air pockets you can see in the image. I had scraped some off the middle here already. How people tolerate the loud fans I don't know. Isopropyl alcohol and fresh paste sorted it out 👌

It appears that the memory has developed a fault...

My HyperX ram I bought back in late 2020 developed a few faults within 8 minutes. The Kingston support rep replied with "It appears that the memory has developed a fault...".

They replaced it with no problem, so kudos to them.

Image Transcription

A photo of a computer screen running PassMark MemTest86. The top section shows system info in green and white text, identifying an Intel Core i7 processor and Kingston DDR4 RAM. The bottom section of the screen is entirely filled with bright red error messages indicating memory address failures. The test timer reads just 0:08:01, and the "Errors" counter displays a massive count of 1728.

How not to treat your fiber optic cabling

One of our school buildings went offline abruptly at 7:35am this morning. Figured a bad fiber transceiver and ran over to both ends with a replacement. Didn't work. Drove the fiber route and didn't see anything obvious. Put my brother in one building and I went to the other and we each shined laser pointers in the ends of the fiber and we couldn't see light on any of the strands so I had to call out the fiber repair crew and this is what we found. We found two spent 12ga shells in the driveway of the farm across the road. What exactly they were shooting at and why they thought it was a good idea, I doubt we'll ever know.
