Why don't you just not send traffic to eth1 that you don't want to go out of eth1 in the first place? If you want to do stuff based on MAC address look into ebtables.

@smci Our ticketing system (Ivanti) currently sucks, it's a somewhat recently deployed one that's still in the midst of being completely customized. So a lot things that seem simple are complex at the moment.

@abigail we still have to do that manually for 100+ tickets. Still a lot of work.

@flexi - I've spoke with my manager and know the former co-worker did this - we have audit history to prove that and plus he admitted it to my manager right before leaving.

@antipattern: What "controls" the demand is price. If there is less of X, but still a high demand for X, sellers of X raise the price until demand falls for X. If X demand is inelasitic, the high price of X motivates more potential sellers to invest in R&D to find a equivalent substitiute for X, and thus the economic system can (so far) continue despite the scarcity of any one resource X. As the amount of gold increases in price due to increased scarcity, semiconductor manufacturers will be motivated to research other ways to connect electronic components.

"A wrong" is OK when wrong is a noun - wrong as a noun means "event where an injustice was suffered."

*Onto the table* describes an action of moving from off to on a table.
*On the table* is a well-known saying that can mean "to be the current topic of discussion." - but it can also describe something that is literally on a table - it would not necessarily be moving.

@DamkerngT. They look like flat pastry sheets. Not as thick as egg noodles. Google "Wonton wrappers"

Thanks! I would also venture to say that present-tense narrative style would send a message that the described process should be reproducible. So it makes sense why a text describing an experiment or data gathering process would use that.

@DamkerngT. I'll admit I haven't read a lot of academic papers ...

A generalization of X refers to "any X that obeys this criteria that makes something an X" - it's not definite by definition.

Something you may try is to simply ask if you have to pay for the drug test, e.g. "Sorry if this is a stupid question, but do you guys require the employee to pay for the drug test?" Or simply ask them where the drug testing location is.

USB hardware is not "processed by the BIOS" except when the BIOS has control of the system at boot. The BIOS uses SMI to make USB keyboards appear as PS/2 ones until a non-DOS, etc. operating system initializes ACPI. At that point the OS needs a driver for and has control of the USB controller, as well as full visibility of devices on it.

I'm thinking of adding an ssd to a laptop of mine, but it only has a mini-PCIe slot and not an mSATA slot. I see on ebay and such "PATA" SSDs with the mini-PCIe connector - anyone know if those will work in a mini-PCIe slot that isn't mSATA?

superuser.com/questions/621056/fix-slowness-of-pc - I am tempted to answer this way: "You can increase the speed of your 10-year old system substantially using this method: youtube.com/watch?v=hN9fUJpmF90";

I was just playing around with mcelog in a VM. After briefly reading about machine check exception codes here - intel.com/Assets/en_US/PDF/manual/253669.pdf - it seems like you'd have to be a processor engineer to really understand what they mean.
