ICMP is the backbone protocol that makes everything work. If you block it, shit gets ill. It's like running your car without power steering fluid. You can still turn the wheel, but it's a lot harder.

@Chopper3 We need a new Close reason. "needs a sysadmin → OP needs to hire a sysadmin, not try to be one."

Someone just stole my server. They physically pulled the blade out of the chassis. And we have not tracked it down yet.

@ShaneMadden Fine, fine. I'll go back to being a sleazy, lying promise-breaking politician tonight. I'll find a dumb, new user and be nice to him. Happy? :p

The mods from that site should have a "allow moderation from other sites in this chat" toggle

Y'know. I used to really like Chat.se: It's a decent crowd, with a decent amount of things to talk about. I could be dry, and british, and talk about work, and how much it all infuriates me.
This recent bit of.. Drahma.. does two things.. 1) it sets a worrying precedent of how easily various Regulars can be roughed up by an overbearing moderator, for doing nothing except calling them a dick (which is, Really Very Tame).
2) It makes me feel like I'm back in school, where you can't say a goddamn thing without having someone breathing down your neck, watching your every word.

2 of the mods are leftovers from the beginning of the site who check-in ... never. One of those hardly did anything in the first place.
2 more haven't done much in the last quarter or more.
3 more are around, but a certain hedgehog gets to the flags faster than we can.
And then there's the hedgehog, who apparently sleeps <4 hours per day and spends the other 20 trolling the mod queue. When I handle a flag I wonder if he's on the sh*tter or if he's still browsing from his phone.

Note to all: Please use the "not constructive" close reason for shopping questions, because it more accurately describes why the question is being closed. Thanks

Being a Sysadmin in education, example #32767: Your boss asks the Lenovo sales rep to send us warranty replacement batteries for all our X201s. The rep laughs and she says "I'll see what I can do." Today 1,905 X201 batteries show up via freight. Be careful what you ask for.

basically anything that accepts user input as envvars and launches a shell (such as system() or qx{} in perl) is vulnerable.
