Evaporative cooling in a dry environment like the desert is actually a cheaper and more efficient method of cooling a data center. Outside temp doesn't matter so much.
Virtual desktops are part of the core functionality of bblean. Both the 32-bit and 64-bit editions have for a long time worked tremendously well for me on Windows 7 OS. It is #1 on my list of must have software for Windows. My only gripe is that the program I use for updating my WoW addons (curse client) is a whimpy.NET application that won't execute at all under alternative shells (they say they don't support it), so I have to very simply work around their jankyness by switching back to explorer shell.
I had to handle a situation from a rather technical guy not long ago who decided he would take it upon himself to set up an ipod for hold music. The problem is, he didn't have a charger for it. Rather than go out and buy a charger, he decided he would power it off the company file server and install the itunes software. Unfortunately, because he was a techie someone made an exception and granted him elevated privs on the server. The root volume on the server rapidly filled up with music downloads and the crash caused significant downtime in an office that is dependent on time sensitive transactions. You can't make assumptions about your users ability to drive things if you are the ones responsible for devoting overtime resources to fixing it all.
Not to be condescending, but the vast majority of users I have spoken with over the last 14 years are barely computer literate. Although it is important to understand standards and conventions, etc. and even a simple thing can get you in trouble, most people I talk to can't even read things off the screen properly. There isn't anything wrong with that, and on the other hand usually I can not begin to comprehend the business tasks they perform so we work together as a team. People just need to work together and get over their ego trip or self confidence issues with calling someone for assistance. I've been in IT a long time, and I still call technical support.
Ok, is this what they meant by downgraded provisional cyber command? As in, a room with pictures of maps on big flat screens and no actual command of anything? If this is the best the most elite hackers our military can muster, then I think my wife should try and apply. She knows how to use Excel pretty well.
What this says to me is that in Florida, the schools are really bad at keeping track of kids and have to rely on exotic and controversial measures that the vast majority of the country doesn't use. The alternatives I can take away from this are that this is all about money or they are just passing off responsibility onto machines.
Heavy start menu user here. Windows 7 was my first transition to new craptastic interface. I never could get comfortable and settled on an alternative, bblean.
I would have written him up and threaten to fire him if he ever did something that lacked judgement on that magnitude again.
Jobs can be stressful enough without people cracking a whip.
Good luck finding work.
I and many others disagree. It has been stated on WoW insider and numerous other WoW related websites by many gamers and reviewers alike that although it isn't a unique concept, being customizable is one of the largest selling points of WoW. I don't think add-ons are any less key for WoW than they are Firefox. Playing WoW without add-ons sucks. Browsing without add-ons in Firefox doesn't.
Tell that to my coworker who is questing right now. Blizzard doesn't patch add-ons. Add-ons are developed by the community, not Blizzard. I never said anything about the client. You misunderstood my comparison completely.

This one bears resemblance to a cylon raider. Perhaps their plan is a much more sinister one?
Motorcycles are more efficient than cars if you don't account for the greatly multiplied rate of human injury and sacrifice.
Was it the "This is a parody of nsa.gov" that gave it away? Woosh.
Did the NSA say this? I don't recall that they did
In big bold font on their homepage:
"If You Have Nothing to Hide, You Have Nothing to Fear"
You left out the most important one of all. Welfare.

If you are concerned about being fired, or if you aren't genuinely looking for a new position then there are also mock interviews.
They have space left there?

Amen!

OK, at least let Tron Guy do the promo!
Wintels being only for poor people is an apple fanboy fantasy. Put the joint out.

People do not run Wow at work.

Sorry, is your point that work is more important than games? Yeah, I'm gonna have to disagree with that.
Ever changing API's and frequently breaking add-ons hasn't killed World of Warcraft.
