@ajstringham Splunk will take your log files (along with other data types) and parse the data in a multitude of customizable ways.
It's a good way to fish through your machines to collect information.

In the MSP world, often enough we are called upon to ferret out issues with Quickbooks, including ancillary third-party plug-ins.
What have been the worst issues you've been called upon to resolve?
I think the most frustrating ones to troubleshoot are the error codes that stem from multi-user access.

My sun conjure would love this!

Beautiful bird! I love parrots, but don't like cleaning up after them. My roommate in NY had a cockatiel named Kramer that used to poop all over the apartment.

I need sleep to function. Not a morning person, but I get up and make it happen. Sometimes this means 2-3 cups of coffee.
I start getting sleepy anywhere between 2200 and 2300 hours.

I didn't even know there were competitors to Splunk.
Have played around with their free version, will be interested to see how the others work.

@Minion-Queen Oh yum! Haven't had one of those in years - I bet you could skip the sugar, too.

Wouldn't have thought to use OJ in it. Interesting.

Might as well start a thread for mango foody goodness.
I'll start with a Mango Lassi:
Ingredients
1 cup plain yogurt (use Greek yogurt for thicker drink)
1/2 cup milk
1 cup chopped mango (peeled and stone removed)
4 teaspoons sugar, to taste
A dash of ground cardamom (optional)

Method
Put mango, yogurt, milk, sugar and cardamom into a blender and blend thoroughly, then pour into individual glasses, and serve. Can sprinkle with a little cardamom.

@ajstringham White chocolate is not real chocolate, IMHO.

Yeah I think it might be... I can change that for you @ajstringham. If your that bored I am POSITIVE I can find something for you to do

Yes in fact, I can easily assist @minion-queen with that.

Snow here is very rare. Rain, on the other hand...
...in the summer you can set your watch by it. from June-August, it rains nearly every day some time between 3 and 6pm.
Then it's humid and buggy the rest of the evening.

I'm Katie, I live in Tampa Bay, FL. I am the Help Desk Manager at NTG.
I own a mango tree, but it will be a few years before it can produce fruits.
In fact, there is a race between my mango tree and avocado trees to see which fruits first.

Most ground-breaking, influential movie ever? Gotta be Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure!!!

Dude!

@Bill-Kindle Occasionally I bake cookies and other goodies to share at my Spice Corps meetings. There's nobody at home to eat them otherwise.

@Dominica I agree - soft cookies are better than hard ones.

@scottalanmiller I would need to build an addition with an extra bathroom in order to install one of these in my house. Maybe the next digs can have one.

@Dominica I think chocolate chip cookies in any iteration are YUMMY. How is the flavour when using honey relative to refined sugar?

@Bill-Kindle I agree - it's a much nicer interface!

@scottalanmiller The image happened to be larger than anticipated. I need to start re-sizing.
