Some Network Tweaks
I decided to go from software dynamic disks raid on the VM mirror to direct hardware raid. This was relatively painless. I exported the Hyper-V VM’s to the backup server (which took about an hour at a gigabit)..deleted both disks from storage spaces…then using the web interface logged into the raid controller and created the… Read more
Social Security is a ponzi scheme..the real problem with the gov’t budget.
Let’s start off with a definition. What is exactly is a ponzi scheme? There’s wikipedia definition. In a nutshell newer investors are required to continually payoff the existing investors. When(not if) this fails everybody looses. Many government programs are variations of this….most pension funds are variations of this as well as the ACA. Right now… Read more
Car Stuff
I have liked the KIA Soul for the most part. My biggest gripe has been the 6 speed manual transmission. It is geared so closely that I can literally go 1-2-3-4-6 and back again…Or i can skip any gear from 2-5. It’s ridiculous and makes finding the right gear a pain in the ass. I… Read more

The source of my malcontent(resolved)
You will see some malcontent in earlier posts…it was me getting frustrated with what i felt was the usual cliques i find..that i despise. However the CEO and my supervisor made sure that I was introduced to most of the senior leadership team face-to-face. It was nice to see the CEO himself taking an active… Read more
Private posts.
For the few that can see these private posts allow me to explain something. I am not confident in facebook’s “privacy” controls. i will put things i do not want getting back to my employer(either good or bad) or anyone else. If you are able to see this you are one of a very fee… Read more

Moore Fakenews..It is Too Predictable
The Trump Derangement Syndrome has gotten to the point that anything in the media that comes out I hold off on before I post. I would say about 90% of the time if it is anti-conservative(not cuckservative), anti-trump it’s bullshit. The instant this Roy Moore stuff started coming out I was highly suspicious. Back on… Read more
