And even more! Enjoy! 😁

Hey Bill! How ya doing?

It's a real SQL Server database, but the part that will be intensive will be taking thousands of rows for each of over 4,000 objects, making mathematically different copies that get stored back to the database (same table, different "type"), then doing that once more before comparing each of these final objects to each other. That's part one. The next part will first create a similar amount of data (but for about a dozen different types of objects). These will be combined in a few different ways (some are still TBD), then each of these will also get compared to each of the original 4,000 objects! If this phase produces results, the next one will have millions of rows for many of those objects. Funny you should mention about spreadsheets and flat files not being databases. I once had a manager who "thought" he knew what he was talking about (LMAO!) and he would definitely call any collection of data a database!

If only more people would read that and GET what he was saying!

Who is it! 😜

No more guessing! 😁

Now I've got that one stuck in my head...

The radio stations hated that so many of us would call in to have them play this because of how long it was! 😁 Goodbye Yellow Brick Road and Heart's Dreamboat Annie were the only two 8-track tapes I ever owned. You gotta love when the tape fades out mid-song and switches to the next track to continue it! SMH...

Past due for a Bill check! Are you surviving Mr. Bayou? 🙂

But, to be fair, after going to the Deals forum, they can't afford to go anywhere else! 😆

Why are you leaving your guitars to Ed's son??? 🤔

*Ouch!*

No, just going to need a new, main PC soon and was seeing if I could combine uses (as always!). I need to do some serious data crunching soon (a Windows program I'm writing that will data-mine a database I created) and I need to be able to have 4k output in both landscape and portrait modes. I think I'm just going to start with a DIY over-powered full tower with a lot of RAM and a temporary graphics card, then update later as GPU's become more available. Then, after a few (a lot of?) paychecks, think about creating a dedicated DAW with Jim Roseberry.

I'm afraid our Beagle ran away... 😕

At least he didn't say "Thanks, Mom!" 😁

Gee, that one sure looked familiar! ('Cause I posted this version a while back! 😜)

Wow, those were baaaaaaad!

Well, based on YOUR choice, I'm apparently a lover and you're a fighter! 🤣 (And neither of us appears to be doing a great job at either! 😜

Thanks for that. It led me to his follow-up video which led me to several from Linus (Linus Tech Tips - have watched this channel for years!). Thinking back, since both the company I worked for and the one I'm going to work for pushes Dell, it reminded me of similar support calls I've had with them. Ok, back to trying to figure out WHAT I need and WHERE to get it I guess! 😢

Even moreso if it was done by this pair!
