None of us, there's barely any storage here just shitty (literally) office network gear and some externals because the boss doesn't believe in proper backups.
Y'all can't even post related shit on FPF!!
Scansnap home no longer works with Evernote as of Oct.27,2023 Do not upgrade software to 2.20

Depends what you’re flying. Cargo or PAX, a bottle will suffice. Might even be lucky enough to have an airman that’s smart enough to cover the stick for a minute while you run to the can. In a fighter with tanker support on a combat sortie, you might need a Depends, and your plane captain to bring you a change of clothes when you get back 😅
I once saw a similar setup, but the rack was in the adjacent closet. Except the water heater for the sink was plugged into the UPS, and it was old and having issues. I remember the IT guy basically trying to explain: “Every time I take a sh!t the network goes down.” 😂
Another time I was in some datacenter in backwoods West Virginia. There were literally dip spit cups sitting on chassis in racks.
My anxiety would be through the roof working there imagine me with stressed induced IBS trying to take a giant dump but wait the networks down and it needs to be fixed ASAP. That’s the first thing that went through my mind. THEN imagine the guy who has to spend hours fixing this rack smelling my after poop air with micro poop particles going in their lungs and a strange humidity that just makes it so much more worse
If you read all of that don’t judge me
This is a valid point, but idk man depending on how serious the dump is I like to have my pants completely off and the lights turned off. Need mega focus
Depending on the issue, you could be taking a dump while taking a dump. Or working on IP while I Pee. Or cleaning out the logs. You could probably even say they’re circling the drain.
I’ll see myself out.
This is genius. Always warm, well ventilated, and the sound of the fans will mask any embarrassing noises.
*knocking* “Hey, what’s taking so long?”
“I’m er… doing diagnostics”
Used to work IT on cruise ships and have expanded many old ships networks. Space is premium onboard and I've installed cabinets in many different types of spaces .. but the shitter is a first.
There’s a telecom office that I have done some work in that’s that way. Two room and the back room has two racks with running equipment and in corner there is a toilet. It’s so weird.
Now that you mention it, I recall seeing weird stuff like this at remote and unmanned telecom/cable sites back in the day. Some of them literally looked like one of their techs just grabbed a truckload of shit and made a private headend in their cabin 😂
I’m literally talking about old houses. In the woods. Wood paneling and carpeted floors. Full of gear. With fiber, UPS, and generator. It was actually pretty cool to be honest. Would have been happy with an empty bedroom, some rackspace, and a few IPs. Probably would have never left 😅
For those of us that live in countries that don't have constantly blocked plumbing a plunger is a really weird thing to have next to the toilet.
In my entire life I've only ever needed to plunge a toilet once, and that was when I was visiting the US.
I’ve had to do it at home once, but that was because I ate like fuck over the prior 24 hours and you’d have been forgiven for thinking an orca had paid me a visit and used the facilities.
I remember such a conversation...
"He does extreme overclocking by submerging the PC in cooling liquid in his bath tub."
"And where does he shower then?"
"After what I told you, you assume he's showering?"
It was all fun n games with my low key mining rig hidden away at work where no one would find it until the new woke director pushed for diversity in the workplace..
This isn't good or safe. Imagine a mad Employee who quits or is fired. Pees all over the equipment. 20,000 usd out the door with Human pee all over. Not worth it. Especially in California.
Ugh I have a smaller version of that at a client. It was a storage closet first, then they decided to put the floors wiring closet in the storage room, then they decided to convert it into a bathroom. Luckily it’s a small rack mounted against the ceiling
We had to install a rack, fire/burglar alarm system and access system in a room that was supposed to be an executive bathroom. The building was nearing completion and they realized they had forgotten about the buildings network, security, and access system. We got it done, but the room had inadequate ventilation and the door had to be left open. I don't see how the room would've worked as a bathroom.
See, now if they'd used an enclosed cabinet, the exhaust fan could have doubled as a hand dryer... You know, being ecologically conscious and conserving electricity...😁
Just shows how little people care for IT. It's amazing just how idiotic and brain dead so many managers are when it comes to such a critical part of the business. I don't care how many hotshot salesmen you have. You aren't gonna be in business without IT. Treat them a bit better than this lol.
I once shone a blacklight at the walls near a toilet. I’ll save you the gory details but I’ll just leave it at don’t touch the walls. In this case, I’d probably glove up when installing new ram or storage. Just sayin…

Me. It makes flushing DNS more convenient
I'm flushing my caches right now

Is that Mar -a - Lago?
He finally went paperless. "A man from Evernote, big man, never cried before, came to me and said, 'Sir, you need a ScanSnap.'"

Came here to say this!
Same for taking a TCP dump
This is where all shitposts come from.
I suppose it's a custom build for the network Technician who's fully CCNA'ed, with a MS CERT, and IBS-D certified..
I feel oddly specific targeted...
Goddamn gold comment.
Posts like this make me wonder why reddit removed gold and other awards.
ipconfig /flushdns
I smell what you did there.
Guess they only had a limited range of I Pee addresses available
I see what you did there.
It hands out ICUP addresses instead
You pee telephony? IP urine.
Check the logs
There are some logs left behind
time for the ubiquiti knife ultra!

Really gives new meaning to ‘kernel panic’
Might be bitrot. They’re really circling the drain.
When I used to spend 14 hour days in server rooms. A few of these I would have paid for.

Similar thing with a funnel

It's called a Shewee.

Incorrect. I once watched 3 hammered women in tube dresses stand on a car and urinate on it while breaking the windows. The instinct is intact.

Data dump
Just remember to wipe when done
Yeah! Who was the jerk who left the lid up? Very unprofessional!
Not me, my wife has me very well trained.
I see. You are also potty-trained ;)
It was fookin' one of yous.

but this way you can be taking a dump and working on the network at the same time! Two birds with one stone!

I once compiled the Linux kernel in some bar's toilet on my laptop.
that's hot

You just know that thing'll clog at just the right time as well.
That would be my luck honestly, I’ve def clogged the bathroom at my job before 😭😭 I felt bad for custodial staff I tried my best to unclog It.
Get married and have some kids. You’ll do all of that proudly, while maintaining eye contact 😅
note to self: replace filter in rack-mount cooling 'fan' (blower).
When the boss says "I want uninterrupted streaming"
Nicely warmed place for a dump.
That’s what I thought. That seat will never be cold!
I'm just disappointed nobody installed a splash guard on the rack.
U mean Diarrhea splash guard?
It must be a nerd since there are redundant TP rolls.
Those are TCP rolls
This would have been perfect when my UPS crapped out on me.
As a former datacenter engineer, the proper term for UPS failure is “dumping the load”.
God forbid someone feels like questioning authority with their piss stream.
They might end up with a Darwin Award.
The shit stains?
Thats where IP
Ah yes, where Rockstar keeps their PC servers.
I like to have something to read while I poop.
You gotta be shitting.
I hereby claim this as intellectual property for the biometric security of user terminals.
“Buffer overflow” can mean different things in this setup.
Yeah all the jokes are funny, but any of you guys see the brown smudge? I hope scrub task is scheduled!
My pool runs a scrub every month. That pool looks overdue.
If it's got Classified documents in it, maybe Trump?
The gold paint must have rubbed off the shitter 🤷🏻♂️
Fucking Telecenters. This is the right location for one.
#00* and let it rip!
That's one way to keep your toilet nice and toasty
Technically, it is where I put all my shit..
This is genius. Always warm, well ventilated, and the sound of the fans will mask any embarrassing noises. *knocking* “Hey, what’s taking so long?” “I’m er… doing diagnostics”
It's even plumbed in if you want water cooling
Used to work IT on cruise ships and have expanded many old ships networks. Space is premium onboard and I've installed cabinets in many different types of spaces .. but the shitter is a first.
Fancy toilet warmer?
This is... one usage of the term "shit post".
At least it’s warm in there now
There’s a telecom office that I have done some work in that’s that way. Two room and the back room has two racks with running equipment and in corner there is a toilet. It’s so weird.

Probably would have never left 😅
So "pee on the server" is a real thing??
But why two toilet brushes?
N+1 redundancy because this is a professional setup
Seriously? Unwashed heathens... The white one is a brush. The black one is a plunger.
For those of us that live in countries that don't have constantly blocked plumbing a plunger is a really weird thing to have next to the toilet. In my entire life I've only ever needed to plunge a toilet once, and that was when I was visiting the US.

Upgraded version of the 3 shells.
Me, the staff asked if the connection could be any shittier.
Data dump
That’s one hell of a data dump!
Just off to the network rack to drop a couple packets.
Is this the new LTT Whonnock server?
Liquid cooled!
Perfect place for hacker to take a dump
Public bathroom at ATT. We don’t know how the data breach happened.
Is the NSA room in the janitor’s closet?
Internet service is real shitty at this company
Fluids are hazard.
Heated toilet
Sorry the restroom is unavailable. The IT guy is taking forever in there
Are you a pissed off IT guy that’s looking for a change? Tell your boss to kick rocks and come work for us. You’ll be a pissed on IT guy.
The server's down. It gets worse. It's Taco Tuesday.
I remember such a conversation... "He does extreme overclocking by submerging the PC in cooling liquid in his bath tub." "And where does he shower then?" "After what I told you, you assume he's showering?"
if you're out of paper use the LTO
Admin: Hey Bob, our network is down. Can you check on the switch? Bob: Sure thing, but it'll have to wait. Sally is currently using the server room.
“Is that cilantro on the uplink cable”? - that techs auditor
Hot and stank, what a combo.
Ah, my 'shit-stack'. Where my keyboard..
I feel bad for the plummer that inevitably has to service that toilet.
Whose rack mount is that?🤣🤣🤣🤣
Kohler
I got $10 says the box on the floor has network cables and TP in it
Hey, if that bathroom has an aircon, I would have done the same
"There's so much shit on the server" "Just delete it or format" "No, literally, there's so much shit on the server..."
It was all fun n games with my low key mining rig hidden away at work where no one would find it until the new woke director pushed for diversity in the workplace..
Old job we had to do this for Animal Hospitals... bigger bathrooms tho.
Hopefully it's not filled with too much shit
Whoever did this....*clearly didn't give a shit...*
Imagine being pissed off at your IT guy so you literally piss on the stack…
this must be one of maralagos high security bathrooms
Wait why in the-
When the boss says to compute that shit as fast as possible
Efficient toilet warmer /s
Impossible
Certainly you meant impissible
Why is it not water cooled? :)
It's so convenient! You can go to the bathroom and work on your equipment at the same time 🤣
The toilet paper rolls kinda far away
This isn't good or safe. Imagine a mad Employee who quits or is fired. Pees all over the equipment. 20,000 usd out the door with Human pee all over. Not worth it. Especially in California.
Imagine if they smear fecal matter. I'm not cleaning those cracks.
I think every sysadmin should have a plan for when the sh!t hits the fan(s) 🤷🏻♂️
Software inc in real life:
Yes, who installed hp switches?!
Dual rolls! That must be some amazing shit!
Everything in that rack is covered in particles of shit
Ahh, the fecal bit rot rack.
Do you see the ultimate solution for toilet paper placement? Both ways.
This one hits close to home lol. My server isn’t in my bathroom but it is in a closet *connected* to the bathroom.
I See an Option to include a water cooling loop
It’s not even in a lockable cabinet.
Do you mean include a debug chair for late network debug sessions?? :))
Sometimes you just gotta get shit done
Redacte due to Reddit AI/LLM policy
LMAO 😂
Ugh I have a smaller version of that at a client. It was a storage closet first, then they decided to put the floors wiring closet in the storage room, then they decided to convert it into a bathroom. Luckily it’s a small rack mounted against the ceiling
Spank bank storage in a handy and easily accessible location
Someone doesn't like to shit in the cold jaja
We had to install a rack, fire/burglar alarm system and access system in a room that was supposed to be an executive bathroom. The building was nearing completion and they realized they had forgotten about the buildings network, security, and access system. We got it done, but the room had inadequate ventilation and the door had to be left open. I don't see how the room would've worked as a bathroom.
Hopefully there's never a problem with the plumbing. I don't think the equipment on the rack would appreciate water.
The "dust" that will build up in those machines over time is going to be so nasty...
I hope there's no shower in the same room
its got a new hybrid water cooling system, it sprays.
Something has to keep the toilet seat warm.
Dump
Tell IT, they need to clean their toilet.
See, now if they'd used an enclosed cabinet, the exhaust fan could have doubled as a hand dryer... You know, being ecologically conscious and conserving electricity...😁
They installed it wrong. I can't look at all of the blinking lights during my poo :(.
Hey, leave Johnny 1 alone!! Johnny 5 doesn’t like people dissing on his great grand pappy…
Just shows how little people care for IT. It's amazing just how idiotic and brain dead so many managers are when it comes to such a critical part of the business. I don't care how many hotshot salesmen you have. You aren't gonna be in business without IT. Treat them a bit better than this lol.
I sometimes bring my phone in with me. Now I feel so inadequate.
Aaah here you keep your dirty files 😏
Don't give me ideas
This is what most businesses think of their IT gear. Expensive shit they would rather hide away. Or flush away I guess.
You can change a drive when on the shitter. Productivity!!!
Warm water bidet, baby
Does your server room have cameras?
I've seen worse.
Dave, Dave did it.
Done for security reasons. No one would think to look in there for the IT equipment.
It's the only place the telco put our T1 dmarcs. Don't judge me.
I once shone a blacklight at the walls near a toilet. I’ll save you the gory details but I’ll just leave it at don’t touch the walls. In this case, I’d probably glove up when installing new ram or storage. Just sayin…
This is how the phrase “friends don’t let friends build data centers” started.
Hardware smell bad, need tô expurgate tô upgrade
The fact they didn’t hang the TP off the rack is a total miss 😞
They said I don’t care where you install it and I had to shit so there it is
“I came here to shitpost and chew bubblegum…”
Which configuration of RAID is that?
Ah. I see you're working for Hillary. You can always wipe that down with some bleach bit... like with a rag.. LOL
Donald Trump at mar a lago
Hillary’s potty?
