Watch 'Adolescene' on Netflix, with the understanding that each episode is a single take. One shot, one hour. 15yo Owen Cooper deserves a Bafta.

#Cisco yet another dead supervisor in a relatively new Cisco 9410. That's the seventh one this year.

This is what drives people to other vendors.

I absolutely love rebuilding #CiscoISE servers

@mrrickygervais.bsky.social sorry for your loss, those German Shepherds are a special kind of dog.

Oh goody, another dead fan tray on a #cisco 9606 chassis. I've lost track how many times this happens over a 1-year period. [Insert go down joke here]

And to make it doubly fun I've got a 9410 chassis that locked up at the same time while doing a software update.

A vendor just told me I need to put my internal DNS on public internet.

Dear #Arista, if you buy my 9410 I will happily forklift. Rumor is you guys do VXlan with the base license, that alone would save my company quite a bit of money.

Dear #Cisco WhyTF are you charging me a full network advantage license for my standby supervisor that doesn't process any traffic?

Sumo oranges are the hand grenades of oranges.

And when you say that phrase you have to say it like you're Christopher Walken.

Oh boy! When #Ciscoise fails, it fails spectacularly.

One network event that causes a database on two servers to be out of sync, causing all sorts of havoc with 802.1X.... I did not want to work 12 hours on a Sunday.

In another data centers every so often, the amount of hair I see stuck on intake phones for firewalls and switches is a bit sketchy

If I had a nickel for every time I tell my Google home speaker "hey Google play ocean sounds" right before bed... Only to have the Google home speakers stay quiet in my cell phone start blaring ocean sounds out of a tiny little speaker.

As a GenX I will admit the new Crow movie is a good homage to Brandon Lee's Crow movie.

TODAY I LEARNED: The #Sonos CEO lost his job and the company is in a $500 million dollar lawsuit... Just because the Sonos V2 app sucks so bad. It's so so bad.

'Clarkson Farm' should be watched by everyone who has never worked on, or been near or on a farm.

In the hindsight of COVID and the lockdown and from work from home... I'd like to feature requests every streaming service.

If I've watched it then you need to tell me, like if I've ever watched it. Even if it was 10 years ago, just tell me so I don't feel stupid 1 hour in.

I've been in networking for a while.

Last night I went in for a sup replacement on a Cisco 9410.

Long story short, I really miss the days of rock solid c4500/c6500.

I think Cisco may not recover it's dominance unless it reintroduces stability, stop chasing features. #Cisco

Neil! There's a guy on Reddit who has a parchment with Newton's signature on it, and according to the comments he's looking to sell it.

Is there a good alternative to Sonos cause GOD DAMN their v2 app is so so bad. Winamp is better than the Sonos v2 app.

Colin Jost and Michael Che, should go on tour where they write each other's jokes for the entirety of the tour.

#cisco , paying for next Day Air support of RMA parts... Which is not a small amount of money... Only to have them take 4 days, is not very cool.

If you happen to be running the #Cisco 9600 chassis... Beware.

Their fan trays have an unusually high failure rate. The chassis, with even 1 sup and 1 line card, runs to hot to boot on a failed fan tray.

When are you guys going to demo "keep talking and nobody explodes" off steam?

I want to see Simon try to diffuse a bomb
