California Fire Map
[^]
If you zoom in, to the west of Los Angeles is Santa Barbara. I'm in Santa Barbara. The Rey fire is buring just north of us. The darker area to the east is what burned since last night.
Looking out my office window it's an orangeish-grey haze. The map says it's 20 miles away, but I dunnoo....
Also, to the left of the fire is Lake Cachuma. There was another big fire just south of the lake about 6 weeks ago. Same size as this one that burned all the way to the 101 freeway near the beach.
The map shows green where their ain't no green any more.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

Oh wow, that sucks man. And I'm in LA, and apparently haven't been watching the news that much. I didn't think the fires were still going on.

Same map, east of LA up the 15

Nah man, just hearing of it. That's messed up. Crazy to think, I'm from Louisiana, which pretty much just flooded. Moved to here, which is pretty much now burning. If I would've known this was gonna happen I would've brought some water with me in my truck.

When you said "LA" - did you mean Los Angeles, or Louisiana?

Los Angeles, I suppose that's L.A., but I'm so used to typing LA because of my home state it just stuck.

I actually live in Temecula, in Riverside County. I'm doing a contract here in Santa Barbara that's ending. I'll go pretty much anywhere.
Can you email me the details?

Check out these images that show right now Microsoft is taking over my hard drive.
It's pegged at 100% utilization by some files Microsoft is downloading to my machine without even asking or even telling me.

The only reason I even know that it's microsoft and not some (other) virus is because I've wrote this DiscoFiles program and I started it up to see what was accessing my drive.

Thanks again Microsoft. For using my machine. Maybe you can tell me when you'll be done. I was going to do something on my computer but you know best.

My machine is an i7 with 8GB ram but that doesn't matter when something eats all of the I/O.
NOTE: Posting in case others see this and wonder what is going on with their Win10 computer

There is or was a setting to let them use your computer like a file share so others can download stuff.
I can't think of the name off hand.
Edit:
Google Search.

I don't think it was the other PCs on my home network causing this. It seemed to be that the machine was suddenly being updated from Microsoft. You may be right though.
About 15 minutes alter my wife said, "my computer is totally unusable..." -- her drive was getting crushed. Then she mentioned that last night she was using her win10 machine and it just shutdown instantly.
Oh, sorry, were you using your PC? Well, we had an update. ~insincerely, Microsoft Bros.

Which, having experienced this at a customer site, makes me wonder how the hell W10 can be even considered in a mission critical environment.

We control machinery with moving parts with Windows PCs. I shudder thinking of the damages it can do - not safety related fortunately but the sheer damage to production runs and lines could be terrible.
