And I bet the guys from 1800gotjunk could have done it faster, and for a total lower cost, than you did.
Except the recycler paid $50 per pallet. Made out like a bandit when one pallet had 100+ old but still current laptops. All of those went up on eBay for $100 each.
Sort of like how you weighed yourself for ten years and you never noticed the *thunking* sound of the poor human-rated scale???
The gym scales stopped thunking three months ago. I got a bathroom scale that maxed out at 400 pounds. Two-and-a-half months ago, I weighed 370. This morning I weighed 360.
Maybe I should mail you a talking scale, you know, the kind that says "Hey! Hey! One at a time!"
I got the non-Bluetooth version of my bathroom scale. No app screaming, "Oh, God, not again!"
Anything the FBI should know about??
These 14-year-old wankers are "men" in their 40's, make $200K per year in IT, own homes and have families, and love Russian dicks.
If it sucks, and it will, who's going to take the blame?
Microsoft. Maybe Dell. New workstations and laptops will only run Windows 10 after mid-September. Since there can only be one image, everyone is switching over to Windows 10.
If you're part of that chain, I hope you have someone lower on the chain to blame.
My responsibility is on the patching side of operations. Unless the SCCM client is FUBAR, I don't think I'll have a role in the upgrade process.
But he's keenly aware of the twenty clicks his website got yesterday.
My signature link can be tracked in the bitly app. I'll have to check the server logs to find out how many clicks I got from the regular link that the 14-year-old wankers reposted over the weekend.
And how that will monetize to millions of dollars when he retires.
The 14-year-old wankers also reposted my affiliate links over the weekend as well. The numbers this morning are awesome!
It seems that there's literally an infinite assortment of things you're unaware of, you dimwitted baboon.
I see no mention on the website that they provide certificates of destruction for hard drives. They also charge for removal instead of paying for surplus electronics.
I worked at Accolade when Infogrames (French) bought the company on a buying spree in the run up to the dot com bust. They bought Hasbro Interactive, which held the Atari intellectual property (IP) rights. The company later changed its name to Atari. And then the dot com bust happened. The company found out it overpaid for acquisitions by two to four times actual value, which it sold for pennies on the dollar to pay off acquisition debt. Still recycling the Atari brand since then.
Nope. I give the certificates to the client company. If a hard drive that contain sensitive information pops up on eBay, liability shifts from the client company to the recycler.
When I took first year electronics in community college in the early 1990's, all the formulas were presented with the circuits but the math was never presented in any detail. Second year electronics required taking Electronic Math as a separate course. I didn't finish that course. Mostly because I hadn't taken algebra yet, which wasn't a prerequisite for the class, and the concepts were taught in isolation from any hands-on circuitry. I changed majors anyway since electronics was on the way out and computers were becoming popular. Fast forward a quarter-century, I'm getting back into electronics as an adult. Now that I have money, I can buy all the parts and test equipment I need. Although the first section is a bit dense, I had no trouble going through the math.
A lot of IT shops that I've been in don't know how to manage obsolete inventory, throw everything into storage closets and run out of space for projects. Cleaning up my immediate work area and the storage closets is usually my first order of business. You can't work efficiently if you're buried in crap.
The karma cap is 50 points. Once you hit it, positive mods do nothing, but negative mods will still affect it. For example, if you're at the cap, get 10 + mods, then subsequently get 10 - mods, you're down to 40 points.
I just re-read the Slashdot FAQs. I didn't find this information anywhere and it's not consistent with my own experience.
If a few people with 15 mod points decide to mod-bomb you, you can quickly find yourself at zero.
Fortunately, I'm not pissing off everyone with a user account. Only the 14-year-old wankers.
Ad revenue. LOLOL you are a liar now as well? You know geeks don't click on ads.
Not every nerd is a geek. Based on my data, nerds do a lot clicking.
So you are a 40 year old man, on slashdot arguing with 14 year old kids? Yea that sums up the Creimer we all know and love. A child molester lul.
I've been reassured by these 14-year-old wankers that that work in IT for $200K per year, they have homes and family, travel around the world, and love Russian dicks. I'm sure they behave like "adults" in polite society and around their families.

You are fucking blind, stupid, or brain damaged. I'm betting it's the second.
You need to take responsibility for the fact that you don't know how to quote or quote tags.
As opposed to paying a contractor's hourly rate as he dawdles through weeks of "tidying" a closet?
I only pulled out six pallets of surplus equipment for the recycler.
I QUOTED THE PARAGRAPH
You linked to the page. You didn't quote from the page. Or did you mess up the quotation tags and forgot to hit preview?
You are absolutely the stupidest person I've ever interacted with on this site.
Says the person who can't quote.
PS: Were you in North Carolina this weekend?
That was your mother.

Windows 10 will go into the production environment at my job Really Soon(TM). What could possibly go wrong?

I don't see a cartridge slot or nine-pin connectors for joysticks.
What do you do, eat them and Ziploc your poops?
Nope. I give the certificates to the client company. If a hard drive that contain sensitive information pops up on eBay, liability shifts from the client company to the recycler.
1-800-GOT-JUNK can solve that.
I was unaware that 1-800-GOT-JUNK provided certificate of destruction for hard drives.
Someone tried to monetize every key click with intrusive ads. A brilliant idea poorly executed. Better luck next time.*
* Note: I'm only half-way through my skinny vanilla latte for this morning. Someone else might have a better interpretation.
That's to your advantage; if they did know, they'd kick your flat bony cyclist's ass to the curb.
As a contractor, I get called in to solve problems. Once the job and/or contract is done, my "flat bony cyclist's ass" gets kicked to the curb anyway.

Nope. :)
Now he's posting Amazon affiliate links as AC. Creimer give it up buddy.
I don't post as AC. This troll isn't reusing my affiliate link like the other trolls do.

With that sort of business acumen, it's amazing you are on the old side of middle-aged, living in a studio apartment with a manga collection.
Middle age is between 45 and 64. I'm only 47. That puts me on the young side of middle age. Now get off my virtual lawn, Millennial!

Have you stopped to consider why I publish content under a pen name? My legal name isn't that unique.
I'm surprised that no one made the connection to the guitarist of Women.
