anyone interested in a tedious project?

[jdbnsn]

I need someone to take all of the websites in the modding suppliers thread and arrange them into a single post (or a couple if it exceeds the character limit. They should be arranged by groups like electronics, modelling, woods, metals, etc.. If someone can do this I'll +rep the livin **** out of ya.

[SgtM]

Dude.. I'm at work tonight, tomorrow, and wed.. I'm on it.

[Bucko]

I just did a quick clean up in there to make it easier for you SgtM. I've merged posts from users and trimmed out most of the comments, so it should be a little bit easier to wade through it all.

[jdbnsn]

Thanks guys!

[Jim Beam]

damn I'm too late aahh well srgt will prolly do it faster

[SgtM]

Ok.. I'm about 1/2 way through the list. I've got some things to do that will take me a couple hours, then I can work on it some more.

SgtM is such a go-getter! i love you (me no gayz)

[SgtM]

Nah.. I just happen to have a job that allows me to be on here every night, and unless there is a critical outage, it's usually pretty slow. All of my work tools are displayed on the other 3 monitors hooked up to this computer. TBCS is on the (4th) center monitor.

i have a job as security at a lake club and it is really boring just sitting there:( and there is no internet in my booth so no TBCS during work :mad: but i only work like twice a week :banana:

i have a one monitor setup so i have to switch back and forth: TBCS, pron, TBCS, pron, TBCS, pron, pron, pron, pron, pron, pron......

My schedule is cool. I work the night shift. 7pm - 7am. We're staffed 24/7/365. We work 2 on 2 off, 3 on 2 off, 2 on 3 off. Basically, in 2 weeks, I work all 7 days, but I have a total of 7 days off. This job would be nearly impossible without multiple monitors.

You... You work at a dispatching center don't you?


I know somebody who works at a dispatching center just 9mi north of my house, it's the center for all of the west coast and a few east coast states too. It's always staffed as well.

[SgtM]

Kinda, but not really.. We only call techs out when our controllers decide that the system that's down is critical. I'm in the Systems Network Operation Center (SNOC). Basically, anything that's connected to the network gets monitored via HP Openview, and if something is wrong, it sends us alarms. It can be something as simple as a disk bottleneck or time synch, to a service affecting outage.

OTOH..
The list is done. I just have to figure out a way to get it posted so that way it's actually viewable here. It's not liking the HTML code right now.. I'll work on it more tonight.

replace all <a href="url here">name</a>'s with [*url=url-here]name[/*url]

sans asterieks

[SgtM]

Ok.. it's MUCH quieter here tonight. Last night was pretty much hell with the storms rolling across the East Coast. Here starts the list.

I wish I could get them to give me multiple monitors at my job. Id consider bringing my own if it was allowed. I don't need four but I'd love to have at least two. It would be nice If I could Log a ticket, work in a remote session, and view "Reference material" at the same time without switching between a million windows.

I've always wanted but never felt like i NEEDED multiple monitors until I started actually doing work on a computer. Of course id be happy with something as simple as upgrading to windows 7 to use the superior task bar to organize the windows I do have open.

[AmEv]

I wish I could finish my at-home dual-CRT setup.
Yes, they are CRTs. But they are nice 17"-ers.

What do you have to do to them?

[AmEv]

Get a PSU and a DVI-VGA adapter.

[luciusad2004]

Get a PSU and a DVI-VGA adapter.

OH *Facepalm* I thought you had to finish the monitors. I haven't used mutliple monitors in a while. I stopped when i couldn't get them working right under Ubuntu and then just never really hooked my desktop back up once i tore it all down.
