  1. Re:Amateurs on Most IT Pros Have Seen Embarrassing Information About Their Colleagues · · Score: 1

    Hey, cowboy?

    When did I say it was on a work PC? You do realize what a camgirl is, right?

    And way to escalate with the child porn reference. Your problem there is that, yeah, I probably wrote the code submitting your images to the NCMEC if they match certain things that are available.

    How about you get an actual argument?

  2. Who are these people who would keep something like that?

    Because I sure as hell don't wanna work with 'em.

    Seen it? Oh, gods yes. I'd need more hands to count how much, over 24 years, of my friends and coworkers' dirty laundry I've seen. Hell, at one point, I had to tell a NOC manager "there are naked pictures of my whole team somewhere on the Internet, so she's a cam girl, chill" (this was 1998).

    The person that conversation was about ended up being probably the best hire the company ever had.

    You're a goddamn sysadmin. Go in, fix, leave. You don't read their email. You don't copy off dick pics or whatever. You go to the bar and drink the memory out of your head, like a professional.

  3. Oh gods on Ask Slashdot: Suitable Phone For a 4-Year Old? · · Score: 1

    No. He's fucking 4 years old. He should be out playing, making mud pies, scraping his elbows, shit like that.

    It sucks you can't see him as much as you'd like, I'll grant you. But he's a fucking four year old.

  4. side-effect? on It's Easy To Steal Identities (Of Corporations) · · Score: 2

    An unexpected side-effect of "corporations are people too" ?

  5. Gah on IT Pros Can't Resist Peeking At Privileged Info · · Score: 2

    Fucking amateurs

    Seriously. You do NOT DO THAT. How hard is this to understand?

  6. Wait, this is an issue? on SSL Certificates For Intranet Sites? · · Score: 1

    We just use the same wildcard certificate that we use for our external sites. *.domain.com, works wonders.

  7. Seriously on Dealing With a Copyright Takedown Request? · · Score: 1

    IANAL, but that's way, way too high a percentage of the questions for anything a reasonable person might consider 'fair use'. Take it down, put up, say, 5 questions if you really feel the need.

    And, yeah, ask a real lawyer, not /.

  8. Re:Don't get your hopes up on A Congressman Who Can Code Assembly · · Score: 2, Funny

    Oh, come on, we've all made mistakes. That doesn't mean we don't love our wife^Wperl, it's just that, well, we were tempted.

  9. Re:slashdot cache on How to Make a Starship Enterprise out of a 3.5" Floppy · · Score: 1

    Sure, and what happens the first time that someone complains about mirroring their site without permission (or, more precisely, has their lawyers do it)?

    As for asking permission, um, sure, as long as you want the stories to be days old, they could, I suppose, get permission first from every single place they link to.

  10. Wait a second... on Jack Valenti's Views On The Digital Age · · Score: 1

    $350,000 to produce a CD? $80,000,000 to produce a movie? $3.5 billion a year on analog videocassette piracy?

    Does anyone know where he's getting these figures, or really, anything even close? (Other than pulling them out of random orifices, of course).

  11. I wonder.. on Crazy Stats on Spam · · Score: 1

    Judging by the amount of spam I get *from* .kr addresses, do those statistics include spam they send out?

  12. Re:It's funny. Laugh. on SlackWare 4.0 is available · · Score: 1

    Hey, it is for compatibility. Just compatibility with super-new-fancy-ultra-fuzzy stuff. I love slackware, ask anybody who's worked with me. But RH does (well, did, i'm not real impressed with the newest version) have its uses. Mainly for installing on clients machines when they want linux, but don't actually know how to administrate it themselves. I'd much rather give them RH, and only show them the smiley-UI config stuff than give them slackware, and the easy opportunity to shoot themselves, and me, in the foot.
