How cute these birds are they ! !<| sep |> Because being hostile to me is pointless as I ' m not a republican senator . That and being hostile solves nothing as we are a republic and these are the people we elected into office . Even if you didn ' t vote directly for them you must accept they are in the position . That said they are working with people just not Democrats . They care about their own party . <| sep |> I had to move my home Fedora server a few months ago , and was on my way to that number . Hurt my heart . The best I ' ve ever gotten at work was a Violin Memory Array that hit 1000 days when I had to turn it off to relocate . Otherwise , patching cycles don ' t let me have nice numbers . My old UNIX stuff is in the 7001000 range since my DBAs decided that rebooting servers would make their app run better and they outvoted me in the change control meetings a couple of years ago . Their app died again later the same day after the reboot , and I haven ' t let them have another since . Turns out if they ' d read THEIR logs , they ' d have been able to fix it on the fly , but it was easier to make me do stuff .
