Don't forget to smuggle some secret Chinese tech back up ya bum

unfortunately the exchange rate is pretty poo and not really worth the risk when it comes to warranty. 1GBP = $10.30HKD at best with current prices, youre looking at around less than £20 difference given. Its just not as worthwhile as it used to be. On my last trip to HK, i bought 5 or 6 Samsung SSDs for re-sale and i made a small bit of profit It will be almost impossible to do the same again.

I can always keep an eye out if someone wants something. My eye is mainly on the price of RAM there. I'll grab a few kits if there is enough interest and I get a good ROI.

On a side note - Does anyone have something like a Logitech K400 they can loan me for the month?

Came out of the gym to find out two people having the royalist of rumbles in the middle of the road and causing a nightmare in traffic. One of them runs across the road in a bid to escape but then turns and teases the other drunk guy who charges at him. Almost gets hit by two busses and three cars trying to get across the road.

The was an Ambulance crew at the scene but even they had no idea what to do. There's a police station not even 5mins down the road and i was there watching the spectacle for 10mins with no cop in sight. I think these two drunks we're brawling before i even finished my session at the gym.

I should of jumped in like this dude

Clearly the police were too busy dealing with other important things or they were just as clueless in handling the situation themselves.

Lovely weather for the weekend..gave car was on Saturday, only for a bird to drop his crap on driver side front wing while I was driving on the motorway the following day.

This is the ONLY thing phone games are for.

 

[phill]

Have a safe trip sir and will see you soon

 

[kurosagi01]

Was just listening to this while i'm working...good old Tommy is a prime example of low level british intelligent.

Only game I got on my phone is dope wars. It's movies and manga on my tablet for me!

Boarding now. Cya all in a day

 

[kurosagi01]

Safe trip bruv.
It just seems like there will never be a deal the MPs can all agree on for brexit lol, not surprised as they are all d*cks.

 

[FreedomEclipse]

Damn it's hot over here!

 

[HUSKIE]

Happy Trip........

I think that will drag it's heels for a while to come.... sadly. Getting rather bored of hearing it on the radio every day..

Still, more importantly, how is everyone?

The only thing keeping them relevant I suppose, they just know whatever deal or no deal gets agreed on they will all back out and then bugger off leaving other people to fix it or if they stick around they will have to work with what they got and potentially fail.

The suns out, its Spring season now which is my favourite season as it is right balance in temperature.
Just placed my order for the clutch&flywheel..thats another £530 out of my pocket on parts I don't want replacing after my previous experience with the 208 lol.

 

[Hellfire]

The issue I have is that She is now introducing items to the deal to sweeten the pot that don't relate to brexit, like "vote for my shitty deal and I will quit" how is bribing MP's to take a deal that no one wants in the best interest of the public.

 

[phill]

I really can't see it ever coming to an end simply because there's never going to be everything in there that everyone will agree on.. It's just a massive waste of time. I thought if you wanted to leave, hand your notice and go but if life was that simple....

Still moving on the things that aren't a waste of breath.... Is everyone alright? Aside from @kurosagi01 with a hole in his wallet from his car.... What is everyone else up to?

I am stuck with people bombarding me with IT sales calls, this week it seems mostly about "have you thought about moving your infrastructure onto the cloud" or "IDSN phone systems are coming to an end"

 

[kurosagi01]

Should tell them Cloud infrastructure is still not reliable enough lol.

Lol tbh we are already in the cloud, Everything (bar the few file servers left to move) are Cloud based. which means I get to deal with decommissioning our last four physical servers. Which I may try and sneak home.

They're HP Proliant DL360 Gen9's 2x E5-2630 v3 @ 2.4Ghz with 128GB Ram and 2TB of SSD storage per server

Sounds like you're having a fun day!! Are you in infrastructure support for them or the head of a department where you work Hellfire?

I have to say, I have my own personal cloud at home... I don't rely on my internet, it's just too slow for anything based in the cloud.. It drives me nuts...

Nice servers as well Make a nice cluster and have a lot of power there for storing and crunching or VMs, whatever you wished

I run an IT department for a Company in a non IT field (so run internal IT), Big company, 8 sites across the UK and my Dept is responsible for EVERYTHING including stupid phones and boring crap)

I know, I am hoping they don't notice when they go missing. I'd be happy with one of them but all four, Sell of the RAM, Crunching machines. ;-)

Storage > water/damp damage>Scrap heap ( BOFH &pfy)

Oh, I could NEVER be dishonest like that.

Now the question is, What do I do with the 20 Cisco AP's I now have (AIR-LAP1242AG's)
