    Rift: Planes of Telara

    The rewards were only bad if you didn't contribute enough. I got tons of good loot from rifts in beta.

    Don't act like you aren't still on the pantheon train. Come on bro. Now you're somewhat vindicated by this. This is your moment. Shine on. Pantheon on!

    Looks pretty good. Guess all the naysayers were wrong. Eat that crow boys.

    What do you do?

    I'll just keep looking. But it seems all other jobs will be a hefty pay cut. May be better off just keeping my head down and finishing my degree.

    What do you do?

    Wow. I think my current boss is throwing shade at me transferring to IT. After talking with HR last week and things going well, I was waiting to hear from the IT director like we discussed. A few days later I get the "thanks but no thanks" email that people get when they don't make it past HR...

    What do you do?

    I'm in a financial position to take a pay cut. Having 2 incomes helps a lot. I'm always cautious so that's a given. My hospital isn't going anywhere financially. And IT is the one area they can't cut. We're going to a charting system called Epic this summer and they need all the help they can...

    What do you do?

    Update: basically my salary would start out at their Max for the position because of some policy on demotions and my time of service with the company. So my starting salary would be in the $25/hr range. So only a little over $3 pay cut. I am also losing $5 differential pay but this is a much...

    What do you do?

    Good news is I think I'm getting a interview for a help desk position. The bad news is I believe the pay cut will be as I suspected in the $10-11 and hour range. Their help desk positions start around $17-18. But not having to switch jobs and them continuing to pay for my school is a plus. I can...

    What do you do?

    I hear most government IT jobs require that trifecta of certs but otherwise, they are just general certs that came with the degree. Most of it was pretty easy for me and I passed on the first try with minimal studying. Only exception was the subnetting stuff, but that wasn't too difficult.

    Because aftermarket CPU coolers perform better than the shitty stock one. Simple as that. If you're talking about overclocking, that's an important consideration.

    Aye WGU. For the cost it cannot be beat, IMO. I am contemplating switching to the security track just for the CCNA. I have until the end of my term to decide.

    What do you do?

    I work 12 hr shifts, 3 days a week. More if i pick up OT. The management in my dept is fucking inept but I can keep my head down and grind out my degree on their dime. I'm just trying to get a feel for my 2nd career and where I should be focusing my effort. I currently have my A+, Network+...

    I think that's the angle I'm gonna try first. Seems like a logical step. They are paying for my school anyways and I have 10 years seniority.

    What do you do?

    Thanks for all the advice. It's tough decision to try and decide where to go career wise next. I make ok money as a Respiratory Therapist. I just don't want to do this anymore. I make about 65k a year and the wife makes about 60 so we pull in decent money for AZ. I know I'll take a pay cut...

    I'm doing a degree in Network Admin but there seems to be a lot of crossover between this, Security, and System Admins. I picked the support side over programming for the exact reasons you mentioned. But instead of having your job outsourced, seems these positions are being insourced with H1B...

    EQ Never

    And here I always thought if you make a good game, you'd be swimming in piles of money. Someone should tell daybreak to make good games instead of this mediocre crap they pump out and then try to nickel and dime us through micro transactions. It's retarded.

    I think the game is still in development. They are more likely falling back to an earlier design or they just went silent. We will see something eventually. That's not to underestimate their ability to fuck shit up, but we will see something.

    Routers & Other Networking Stuff

    What's your price range and what type of devices you connecting. You can get a wireless AC router but if you only have wireless N equipment, the extra speed will go to waste.

    The services don't actually cost the amount that hospitals charge. The fact that they are trying to maintain profit margins is a burden to the system. The one thing I like least about Obamacare is that they made us beholden to private corporations. He NEEDED to remove them from the equation or...

    Only other thing I'd do to rule out the SSD drive being bad is try plugging the drive into a different port. But since you said it's an M.2 drive, that may not be an option.
