Really anything new and flashy that someone in power buys. ---- Boss: Hey dabockster, I just bought this flashy new drone from this vendor we never heard of before. I had my doubts but he gave me a bunch of light up fidget spinners for my kids. Can you hook this up to wifi? Me: Sure thing. Hour later: Boss: Why is the internet down? Me: Your drone wouldn't stop pinging out main DNS server. Boss: But it's expensive and flashy and SPIN CITY! Me: facepalm ---- Note that didn't actually happen. But it's an example.

> Boss: Why is the internet down? > Me: Your drone wouldn't stop pinging out main DNS server. ... you should fix your DNS server. Anyway, this is all off-topic. I recommend that you stop commenting on a thread about Chromebooks about non-Chromebook issues, and spend the time learning how to deploy high-quality infrastructure, because your hypothetical boss is right.
