Eirikur, I've been waiting for what feels like years to see this write-up 🙂
I'd be happy to take a look at your draft, if you feel it would be helpful.

Just pinged you a PM Phil.

Mesa Boogie? Never tried those, are you using a head amp or a stack? My self I'm into small, high distortion, sustain, anything like Pignose and upwards. What's your axe?

Head + 2x12 speaker cab. Crystal clear on the clean channel, to full-on high gain on channels 2 and 3. Really a great amp. Having said that, I spend most of my playing time in front of a computer playing through a modeller (Line6 Helix). The neighbours appreciate that.
Guitars: Ibanez RG Prestige, Schecter Hellraiser. Plus a US Fender Strat, for those more mellow moments.

Ibanez with DiMarzios?
;cool:
Kind of old school my self, used to have few Fenders and such, my axe of choice is
heavy as a rock and the sustain is just never ending, playing Parisian Walkaways without any effects 😉

That is a thing of beauty!
I swapped out the stock pickups on the Ibanez for EMGs.
Here's my Strat.

Soooooo… This is a weird one.
My coworker just set up a SQL Server (2019) and can't connect to it without the port number. IE, SeverName\InstanceName,1433. Oddly enough, I can connect to it with ServerName\InstanceName (no port). He's got Browser running on his desktop, and it can't be a UDP firewall block if I can connect to it.
We're scratching our heads on this one. Very odd.

Lordy... absolutely nothing could go wrong with this little test, right?

RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.

2020 is definitely NOT the year to be screwing around like this... Especially not in Florida. Hopefully DeSantis will step in put a stop to it.

Male mosquitoes do not suck blood anyways, so that statement means nothing. Why don’t they just experiment in the UK?
Hope it gets blocked. If something goes wrong, or horribly wrong, there would be no way to walk this one back. Just as bad, how do you monitor any results?
Had a neighbor when I was a kid who used to capture mosquitoes when they bit him. Odd until I learned he worked for mosquito control, and it was his way to do research.

Heh... did he ever complain by saying "This job bites/sucks"? 😀

No. But as a six year old, it was odd seeing the new neighbor have a one biting him, and then capture it in a test tube. He waited for it to finish too - that was dedication.
Did learn that the big males were nothing to worry about. And we had several types in our area.
I am a mosquito magnet. My wife jokes if she has no spray, she just hangs around me. I’m better than deep woods off. I was camping in the keys once and one of the group was more desirable than me. Painful to look at him the next day - welts from head to toe.

As a (mostly) lurker on this esteemed forum for around five years, I've only recently come across this thread.
I've not managed to consume all 4000+ pages to find the answer, so as a point of order: is this a general discussion/AOB/rant thread... and can anyone join in?
The guitar discussion piqued my interest 🙂

I wonder, would the great Samuel Johnson have replaced that with "GIYF" now? - david.edwards 76768 wrote:

Welcome to the "thread"!

For some of us, this is the next thing to jamming by the water cooler 😉

Have you checked his network configs, protocol etc? Browser service running? Any other instances?

Had the same problem on a 32bit Windows 10 tablet running SQL 2014, changed the network config for the service and all was hunky-dory ever after, just like the princess and the frog....;-)

Thank you. Sounds like a nice place to hang out. I'm somewhat starved of mentors and peers being the only person at my firm responsible for "all things database" (and reporting), Sole and Accidental DBA, while also being backstop for most Line of Business applications, the developers' troubleshooting help, third line support and plenty else!
Might be the right place for me to ask "stupid" questions, that I probably should should know, without fear of a flaming tongue-lashing from You Know Who 😉 (Although I respect his undoubted knowledge and experience, the rip-it-all-up-and-start-again fixes are not always possible when dealing with third-party applications) 😉
