Dull Men's Club
An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

Always nice when things go smoothly! Is the maintenance window because you have servers hosted on site?
My workplace was completely optional, only come in if you want to since 2020, until three weeks ago. Now it's required two days a week. In the meantime, I don't have a car anymore (haven't needed one for a few years now), and it takes 90 minutes to get there on the bus.
But think of the increased synergy from all the mandatory in-person team building! The synergy, tuckerm!
I have not needed to eat for three weeks. I am sustained by pure synergy now. I exist in the infinity of time and space and AI chatbots, perfectly connected by the ultimate quarterly objectives.
Truly you most post this epiphany to LinkedIn
Yep, we're fortunate enough to still have on-prem servers (we've also got co-located and cloud assets as well). So those plus the IP phones and all the routing since we have a few satellite offices that routed through the main office. Breaking the field offices out of that was part of the changes were were doing.
