    Morbius (2020)

    I thought Venom was surprisingly really good so I'll give this a chance when it comes out.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Plot twist. My vehicle had multiple recalls and TSBs (including this one) and my dealer randomly called me, desperate for work, so they came and picked up the vehicle, charged everything recall/TSB related to Ford and only charged me for the 2 front brakes that needed replacing. Now it...

    Coronavirus Updates, Important Information, and Ancedotal Experience

    We really need a smarter plan than "everyone hides in their house." Definitely a lot of people are going to have to continue hiding in their house, but I think that we can strategically get some parts of the economy working again.

    I just don't think that optimizations for 16 threads are realistic even on the consoles. Just because the consoles have hyperthreading doesn't mean games are going to use it. Also optimizations for console hyperthreading won't automatically be optimizations for the Windows scheduler.

    Apparently N95 masks can be baked in an oven for 30 minutes at around 160 F to disinfect them without damaging the mask. Not sure how you would get any debris off beforehand though.

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Without some kind of faction balance controls I don't even see the point of doing more Classic server stuff. Classic was a good idea but completely ruined by not having faction-based queues.

    Having the SBC lets you add additional SIP trunks to Teams if you need more conference call capacity, something you can't do with the cloud version of Webex.

    No, buy a Sonus (Ribbon) if you're doing anything Teams related with Avaya. SIP links from the Sonus to your Avaya Session manager and a SIP trunk to Teams. SIP links from Avaya directly to Teams as well. Do as much of the digit manipulation on the session manager adaptations.

    The mobile softphone clients are obnoxious to set up, but once setup have less points of failure in the talk path for the phones. Probably not worth it if you got the other issues working. What did you have for an SBC again?

    I have a hard time seeing the point of a 9900k over a 9700k. 3000 series GPUs should have been 'out' in June with probably low availability, I bet that's pushed back a month, don't expect to get your hands on one until early September.

    Half-Life: Alyx

    Haha, yes! Watching streamers reload their weapon in Alyx is almost as funny as watching them try to dock their ships in Elite: Dangerous when that first came out, maybe more-so because some of them have clearly have no functional idea of how a gun loads.

    That's not going to be fun at all. Since people aren't actually using their hardphones, you really don't need EC500, because you don't need simultaneous ring. What about installing the softphone app on their cells?

    Fat-fingers and dumbshits aside, what did you use to enable EC500 in bulk? Or did you just manual entry all of them?

    Multiply that times 3000 companies and this is what our engineering teams are dealing with right now. 2 weeks ago it was "how do we put thousands of softphone users on our VPN tomorrow." Now, two weeks later, every ticket is "intermittent audio issues for some VPN users..." Oh yeah it's...
