I'm lucky I can get on LoT. One of my hockey boards is blocked, iTunes is blocked, last.fm is blocked, musicbrainz is blocked

Silly people want me to work at work or something.

Contact the Administrator. I am one of the Administrators!

Heh, that post finally motivated me to scavenge a sound card from an old system that didn't need its. Now if I can remember to bring in headphones, I'm golden.

That made my day, Snow. Thanks!:snap:

That was cute.

Reminds me of this one lady in my office. She never signed out of her computer, so when the computer had to be restarted while installing some new antivirus software (our company's network recently got TAKEN DOWN by viruses), she couldn't sign back in. Eventually IT signed in as administrator so she could get some work done. She kept complaining that she wasn't getting her emails. I tried to explain to her that she wasn't signed in as herself right now, and she didn't get it, so I pulled up Explorer and signed her in on teh web interface. She SO didn't get the difference between getting her email on the web vs opening Outlook on the desktop, and no matter how many times I told her, it never sunk in that she wasn't signed in as herself and she kept complaining that all her old information was "lost".

I have to explain the outlook vs webmail thing regularly to people. I use the anology of checking your mailbox at the street and leaving the mail in there (webmail) to bringing the mail in the house (outlook). Once you take the mail in the house, it won't be in the mailbox anymore.

Unless you're using an Exchange server, in which case if you use outlook not only is it still in the mailbox, you can get to that mailbox from anywhere.


Day 1: forgot headphones
