NWI INGO General Post - Part 8

Over doing it is barely doing it.

Just sayin'

Anything worth doing is worth overdoing.

That's what I get for trying to mow the woods.... apparently there's a wasp nest somewhere out there because I got swarmed, and stung. Not going back to investigate till it's dark out.

Ow. You ok?

 

[bradmedic04]

If you can find it and blast it with a shotgun from a safe distance, you'd be in for a show.

I'm still partial to m-80s to remove nests, but those can be hard to find.

Strangely enough, the 3 marks I can find (can't see the two I feel on the back of my head) are just little red bumps. Pain subsided within an hour and that's it. They don't itch, or burn, or feel different except for being little bumps. Usually I swell up terribly when I get stung by bees.

That's what you get for doing work on your vacation.

Just uninstalled symantec endpoint protection off my wife's laptop, holy hell what a difference that made. I can actually boot up and be online in under a minute now, instead of 3-5 before. I can open a program in just seconds instead of minutes. Can't believe a company would mandate that program as their go to virus protection, glad my wife's company finally supplied her a laptop.

Symantec is a huge resource suck. I use Avast anti-virus and SuperAntiSpyware for malware (both free), and I haven't had any problems.

80% of all service calls I have ever done for viruses were on computers with free protection software.
10% are expired versions of paid software (any brand)
the other 10% were "working and current" versions of McAfee...

20 years of IT work...

But user error is also a factor, isn't it? People click on stuff they shouldn't?

4 hours without a post. I'm disappointed.

So, I have access to a private "range" now, but it is not an optimal range. So I'm helping to shape it into a great place to shoot. It means doing some landscaping, and building some things. Should be a fun time. The end goal is a better 100 yard range, a 200 yard range, and a 25 yards and under pistol range, all with steel. And then shooting from the other side, a clay range.

Hey andrew, I cleaned my inbox

 

[aclark]

I can't remember the last time I've had a virus. Been using AVG Free Edition for the last 10 years (?) with CCleaner. As long as you aren't a moron there shouldn't be any virus or malware issues, free software or not.

Is it in the area?

It is in Wheatfield. Imagine it guys, somewhere we could have a meet and shoot and shoot steel.

Anything worth doing is worth overdoing.

Except vomiting. Overdoing that isn't worth it

Id argue its not worth doing in the first place...
