  1. Ripe for abuse? on USPTO New Accelerated Review Process · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Am I the only one who thinks such policy changes are ripe for abuse? Hell, I'll go patent breathing right now! That way, I can charge everybody a fee! Muahahahaha. Seriously now, this is just silly.

  2. two things... oh my on United States Cedes Control of the Internet · · Score: 1

    RE: the gov't being the taskmaster, I sure have never really heard much from them that would cause me to say "Yes Master!", but honestly, the internet does not need the UN, or any international body in control, infact it needs nobody in control, it has been operated just fine for years with very little control, except that over addressing so we can all get along and talk to each other.

  3. god, do what everybody else dose on Lockheed Chosen For Electronic Records Archives · · Score: 1

  8. Re:Cue the UN Bashing quotes! on Should the UN Replace ICANN? · · Score: 1

    Yeah, we would like to mis-manage our own money, besides, who says we need to pay like 25% of the UN budget?!? That hardly seems like a _FAIR_ share. And that whole, UN Tax on Americans idea... The UN can kiss my ass. I'm 110% for the US pulling out of the UN.

    Two things we need to do.... and I hope this helps.

    1) Get off our island earth and spread. Mars?
    2) Create powerful space based energy weapons to destroy this big rock.

    Now, a few other things that would be nice:

    * Star Ships that travel faster then the speed of light!

    * All sorts of neat technologies.

  15. thats fucked up on Judge Says Ohio Must Allow Provisional Ballots · · Score: -1, Troll

    I got marked troll.. well thats fucked up. I guess thats what I should expect from a bunch of people who will be the ones out there committing voter fraud. Maybe its time to give up slashdot.

  16. voter fraud on Judge Says Ohio Must Allow Provisional Ballots · · Score: 2, Funny

  17. Walmart IT on Inside Wal-Mart IT · · Score: 1

    I was in Boone, NC today, and stopped by the local wally world with my better half. While we were at the register, we noticed the "server" room. The gear looked like a bunch of old cisco hubs/low end 1u switches, five or six OLD compaq servers. The servers nor the room were well maintained, We could see tons of dust on the equipment, and the cealing tiles which were also very low... infact, It looked like the room's cealing was just less then 8 feet and they had two 7 foot telco racks. The wiring was just a MESS. Maybe my time spent wiring datacenters has caused a neat and tidy wiring OCD, but damn that room was nasty, with old nasty gear. Hell, those compaqs looked like the stuff compaq was putting out in the mid 90s....

    Okay, I'm done ranting now. I feel much better.

  23. Re:Question SHOULD be: Why did Postgres grow so sl on Why MySQL Grew So Fast · · Score: 1

    Postgres seriously lacks decent replication. MySQL has kick ass replication.

  24. One thing to remember on Looking for a Better Back-Up Power Solution? · · Score: 1

    One important thing to keep ups batteries with a nice long life is good enviromental control. Regulated Humidity, and tempature helps ensure that you battery lasts longer. We have a 35KVA APC unit... APC came out and checked the unit, and after three years, they said our batteries are quite good, but they expect us to have to replace them in 6-18 months. Neat Huh?!?

    At my last job, we had four 500KVA units... Yes.. 500 KVA... They were powerware units... They were in fairly good condion except for the batteries. The batteries were in bad condition, and the reason why, the facilities manager forced us to only run one CRAC unit in that room... when the room required three to stay under 70 degrees... so... at the top of the room.. it was 85 degrees... at the ground floor, it was about 75.

    The big difference was regulation of the enviroment... When the enviroment is properly regulated, it works well.

  25. Next... Crypto on Feds Want to Tap VoIP · · Score: 1
