and if you delete a snapshot, they [the deltas] are deleted so either way you are left reading and writing only to the primary vmdk file again.
If I understand it, deleting a snapshot without reverting to it will cause the delta file to be applied to the VMDK. Other than that, your explanat...
@MattBear @ChrisS I'm looking to maybe do Comcast business as a secondary pipe coming in and was curious how the speed level was. I have home internet and it is blazing fast, but their support sucks. I figure it would suck all the same with business but more curious of service levels in general
@Travis With one exception: On business they'll try to give you a piece of shit SMC "gateway" cable modem/router device. This thing is an utter piece of shit, and you should reject it.
Do we really want to put DNS in my butt? I don't think so.
@ewwhite Yeah, but if it's still running on EC2's infrastructure...
Kinda like how ELB instances are EC2 small instances. So if you use an ELB to failover from one availability group to another, but EC2's zone is the problem, the ELB falls over and won't help you!BRILLIANT!!
I am trying to open a .chm file.
I downloaded the source, extracted it, and double clicked on Waffle.chm and clicked "Open" but no matter what element in the chm file I click, I get the message:

I'm converting an organization to Exchange from an older Linux-based Sendmail/Dovecot POP3 setup. In an attempt to ease the transition, I'd like to leverage Outlook Web App to help acclimate users to the concepts of server-based mail.
One of the issues I've encountered in training is the default...
A former boss wrote me about a Macbook Air wifi problem... ...Any ideas on fixes? I've looked around but the Mac forums are the worst and most polluted collection of uniformed newbies it is unbelievable. Thanks, Doug
how many autonomous systems are in the world's Internet?
generally speaking, how many routers are in an AS?
how many ASs an ISP has?
for example, an AS covers 1 city or many cities? how many routers are usually deployed in a city from a big ISP?
@WesleyDavid Aren't his bikes a bit small for you? Also, you realize that turning into a bike thief means we have to hang you by your gonads in a publicly visible space, right?
@Iain Yeah exactly. So I read that guy's blog who proposed the thing in the first place. He apparently just doesn't want to associate with "server people".
@MichaelHampton one of the recent podcasts called it a spin off from SF which I thought was interesting given all the talk about topicality when it was proposed
@MichaelHampton heh... I have to do my annual tour for starting friday for 18 days... Our VP is supposed to be taking over for me... It's gonna be interesting lol
Don't you just love when users say "I don't know anything about that computer crap" when you ask them a question. Apparently they are either "above" technology or they are proud of being tech illiterate.
@Tanner "In case you need to contact me, here is the number for the Red Cross, and my unit's information, they should be able to get a hold of me within a week in the event of an emergancy"
I'm going to start saying that to other professionals. Doc: "Well it appears you have the flu" Me: "In laymen's terms doc...I don't know anything about that medical crap!"
I've been studying for my CCNA exams using Cisco ICND1 Official Cert Guide, Wendell Odom. On one question they ask in which modes show mac address-table can be executed. The answer is User mode and Enable mode, so they say. I haven't been able to execute that command under user mode, neither in ...
@MattBear So does that make you a reservist? (Sorry for being dumb, our army's aren't really the same at all in this sense. We have a regular army which does [everything] and then we have a Territorial Army which is simply a reserve group for the regular Army which also does [nearly everything] upto and including special forces
@Dan It's a strange artifact of U.S. history, where it had both local militias and later a regular army. This continues today, where the National Guard has pretty much subsumed the militias.
@Dan States perfer to use local resources to handle local situations active army can have a lot of idiots that will cause trouble because its not thier home
@Dan national guard is essentially reserve, but operated at a state level, still deploys to global situations but its main role is to handle crisises in the state
@MichaelHampton still not sure what the point of such a site even is. Not like you can add content there. I don't see any google ads or similar on the site either. Maybe I'm missing the point of duplicating and where the benefit is for them. (edit: I guess the affililiate click through in the middle?)
@Iain I try my hardest not to be, but strictly by birth, yes. I am however proud to have heard "Wow, I would never have known you were from Dudley" a few times. The accent does appear now and again though :s
The Posse Comitatus Act is the United States federal law (, original at ) that was passed on June 18, 1878, after the end of Reconstruction and was updated in 1981. Its intent (in concert with the Insurrection Act of 1807) was to limit the powers of Federal government in using federal military personnel to enforce the State laws.
The Bill/Act as modified in 1981 refers to the Armed Forces of the United States. It does not apply to the National Guard under state authority from acting in a law enforcement capacity within its home state or in an adjacent state if invited by that state's go...
@Dan I only heard the term for the first time last weekend - I was at the T20 in Worcester against Warwickshire (who won) and Jayne & her nephew used it
@Iain Haha, I guess it's pretty localised. Most people outside of the Midlands only really know the term Brummie, but internally that's like confusing Manchester with Liverpool
"The Force Acts, among other powers, allow the President to call up military forces when state authorities are either unable or unwilling to suppress violence that is in opposition to the constitutional rights of the people.[2]"
@Iain Yeah, I don't really identify with Birmingham in the slightest. Very much Black Country here in that sense, not that I'm particularly proud of some of the place
As a kid I always thought I'd grow up and get out, but I'm less sure now. There's lots of places I like the idea of living, but being centrally located is pretty sensible all round. And I never appreciated how much I'd enjoy having my family close either - I really missed my brother when he went to Newquay and I'm looking forward to the fact he'll be in Dudley for a bit after his Afghanistan tour

@MDMarra DDOS, questions about how to change nameservers simply because you want to rehost your website elsewhere, and running beta software on a beta OS.
@DennisKaarsemaker Hmmm.... hard drives->WAFL->FC->VMFS->VMDK->LVM pool->LVM vol->ext4 I guess I have similar number of layers. It sure seems like a lot when you spell it all out, though.
@DennisKaarsemaker yeah, you're right, of course. drives->RAIDgroups->aggr->WAFL->vol->lun->FC->VMFS->VMDK->pv->vg->lv->ext4. Not sure which side of aggr WAFL belongs on, exactly.
@DennisKaarsemaker Sadly, the only place I loop-mount any isos is a physical box. When that thing needs a refresh, I'll be sure to virtualize it just to increase the fs layer stack cake.
@DennisKaarsemaker Do they come in dark chocolate?
Please, do some basic math. It is not that hard. 4000 concurrent streams at 2mbit is 8gigabit. That pretty much uses up a 10gigabit connection. Ask a provider about the price of that before even thinking of anything else - you will likely not like the answer. — TomTom12 hours ago
