Someone tried to print a 1.6+ GB file and our print server ***it's pants.

It was the superintendent tho, so okay teehee so silly.

Superintendents are so *** useless. My school district's superintendent was actually a family friend and I swear to god Steve was ***...pointless. What do they even do? I know they're like the "CEO" of the school, but they're not educators. They defer to teachers for everything. At least the "good" ones do (Steve did, anyhow, and he kept his job for decades so he must have been at least okay).

The only thing Steve did that I can say was 100% on him was decide if the schools would close for inclement weather.

And guess what: we never *** did.

That said, GC, where are you working? Because that sounds like something Steve would do and I'm not sure he's retired yet.

I work for a couple districts in Upstate NY.

We actually have a Steve, but he is the middle school principal. He is actually pretty god damn awesome to have around because he has a tech background and is a huge nerd (for spring break he went to some NASA thing and came back talking about rocket fuel and connecting our school chromebooks to printers on the space station or some crazy ***lol).

Not where I'm from, but where do you live/work? I know "upstate NY" encompasses quite a bit but I have family in the area.

Some widely used systems had usernames and passwords leaked recently, if you use the same across a few things change them and make them different. use something like keepass if you need to.

Ahaha, oh wow.
The worst SSR in the game is getting a rebirth (dokkan awakening intended to bring it up to current standards).
It's now so good it's one of the best cards in the game.

We pronounce it incorrectly though. Like MAD - rid instead of Muh-drid.

We also have a town nearby Norfolk but everyone pronounces it Nor-fork.

Pennsylvania's the same way.

Dubois, Pa pronounced Do-boys.

North Versailles, Pa pronounced North Ver-sales.

When I moved here (I live ~20 minutes from North Versailles), I pronounced it "correctly" and someone looked at me like I just kicked their baby.

*** Yinzers, I swear.

I always disliked how city names often get translated. It's something used a lot in the italian language(I know it's not the only one, but I think we just use it too much, and also it's a stupid practice..) like London => Londra.

In AZ there is a city Casa Grande and its pronounced "Cass-ah Grandy"...drives me crazy.

FINE.

Hey, I have been rather bad about it too. The trick about things like a PSN account or like gmail it's hard to have a unique complex password, remember it and be able to type it in on the mobile/console, at least on a PC it's copy/paste.

Then there's also 2 factor authentication which is just annoying for most, always that line between convenience/usability and security.

Thanks, I'll take a peak at that.
