I call bullshit. That, or your boss is a fucking idiot for allowing you to run anything because your sysadmin skills are obviously shit. I suggest you go back and read your original post, dipshit. You posts support unprofessional, incompetent, possibly unethical and possibly criminal behavior, yet you completely ignore that. Seeing as you seem to think such behavior is acceptable, I have little doubt you defend Terry Childs.
I don't owe the submitter or you anything. I pointed out a very reasonable inference. Then, with no evidence or knowledge of me, said I was projecting my own action on the submitter. When I showed the flaws in your logic, you tried to change the argument and included things not in the post.
So, you can shut your hole and go back to your mother's basement.
It is a shame you can't keep a coherent argument. First you say we are slaughtering innocent civilians. Then, when I call you out on it, you talk about soldiers committing suicide. You ignore the fact that war is traumatic. Oh, and have you ever actually served in the military? Have you met what used to pass for a service member? A bunch of soft whiners who joined thinking they would get a free education and never have to actually fight.
Comparing the carriers to what this guy did is comparing apples to fudge and you are an idiot for trying it.
And, the NYT was wrong. Mostly because Keshav didn't figure in the cost of 99.999% uptime, servers, licenses, sysadmins, ops and prod support, DR, data center costs, SLA payouts, the cost of tower and equipment upgrades, spectrum, etc. Do you work in telecom? Do you even work in the IT industry? Do you even work?
Want things put in perspective? You are so brainwashed, you failed to read the NYT article where they just guess at the costs.
Seriously, you shouldn't talk about things with which you have no experience or even knowledge.
So, I come buy your house and ask you how much you want for your car. You say $9,000.00. I go to your neighbor and tell him I want to buy your car. He breaks into your house and steals the title and keys and then sells the car to me for $1,000.00.
'Seems like a fair amount of work and money to "steal" something.' but he made $1,000.00 and I saved $8,000.00.
I'm all for sticking it to the man, especially cable companies
You are all for ripping off people and companies you don't like. Isn't that interesting.
So, you will be OK with being fined for incompetence if your identity is stolen, or your car stolen, or your home is burgled, right? After all, if you were technically competent then it would never have happened.
No, I provided the context of the quotes. Now you are just outright lying like the little whiny bitch you are. I work with computers, I have already said so. What hasn't been said is what YOU do, which tells me you are not qualified to say shit, fuckwad.
What's the matter asshole? Why don't you answer my question? Why don't you tell us all what your job is and how it qualifies you to make statements about proper system administration? My guess is that you are either unemployed or flipping burgers.
Face it, shithead, you have proven that you aren't qualified to say shit. You spouted off and now you are slapped down, dogshit.
Hey, what do you know, I was right and you are lying piece of shit.
It has become very clear that you are considering a single server environment and have very little clue about what you are commenting on
That in response to
run on one's workstation
Please explain in detail how one having a workstation equals a "single server environment"? You do know the difference between a workstation and a server, right? Apparently not. That, or you are an idiot how uses a server for his workstation. Which is it, dumbass?
Considering you have no fucking idea what my job is that is once again proving my point.
You are right, I don't know what your job is. I just assumed that because you decided to comment on proper system administration of production servers, you actually had a job doing that. So, why don't you tell us what your job is and how that job qualifies you to make statements about proper system administration of servers and server farms? Or, you can just STFU.
No, it is not an unusual assumption as that is what has happened at every single company I have worked at and every single company every person I know has ever worked at.
Oh, and you are the one who brought up having shit run on one's workstation as an excuse for stopping and/or removing scripts so what the poster above wrote is irrelevant. Seeing as your posts show me you have very little experience or at least have no clue how to properly do your job, I double your ability to make judgments as to the likely hood of events.
Top Secret is a secret/protection classification for information and determines who can access the information. If it has been released to the public it is not "top secret". This is a highly secure phone, not a top secret phone.
And, your desktop machine will go with you to another group when you change groups in the organization, such as the submitter is doing, thus invalidating your entire comment.
The only person who missed the point is you, you arrogant, ignorant asshole. The point is that if they are on his workstation, there is no need to stop or remove them as they will go with him to his new assignment as he is only moving departments.
And you didn't even begin to address the fact that stopping and/or removing the scripts you described would disable monitoring and backup.
You deserve to be insulted. You are desperately trying to justify something that cannot be justified and making up idiotic circumstances in the attempt. You didn't read, or at least understand, the submitted post or my comment. And, you implied that I must be doing something wrong because I know when something suspect is going on. Then , you have the nerve to say I am tossing out "meritless[sic] insults". You don't want to be called an asshole, then I suggest you stop making implied insults and if you don't like my direct insults don't make implied insults, you whiny bitch.
The purpose of an arrest is to bring the arrestee before a court or otherwise secure the administration of the law. An arrest serves the function of notifying the community that an individual has been accused of a crime and also may admonish and deter the arrested individual from committing other crimes. Arrests can be made on both criminal charges and civil charges, although civil arrest is a drastic measure that is not looked upon with favor by the courts. The federal Constitution imposes limits on both civil and criminal arrests.
An arrest may occur (1) by the touching or putting hands on the arrestee; (2) by any act that indicates an intention to take the arrestee into custody and that subjects the arrestee to the actual control and will of the person making the arrest; or (3) by the consent of the person to be arrested. There is no arrest where there is no restraint, and the restraint must be under real or pretended legal authority. However, the detention of a person need not be accompanied by formal words of arrest or a station house booking to constitute an arrest.
The test used to determine whether an arrest took place in a particular case is objective, and it turns on whether a reasonable person under these circumstances would believe he or she was restrained or free to go. A reasonable person is one who is not guilty of criminal conduct, overly apprehensive, or insensitive to the seriousness of the circumstances. Reasonableness is not determined in light of a defendant's subjective knowledge or fears. The subjective intent of the police is also normally irrelevant to a court's determination whether an arrest occurred, unless the officer makes that intent known. Thus, a defendant's presence at a police station by consent does not become an arrest solely by virtue of an officer's subjective view that the defendant is not free to leave, absent an act indicating an intention to take the defendant into custody.
I have highlighted the important points. One can be arrested on the scene of a possible crime and let go with no charges. One can be arrested by the officer(s) telling one not to leave because he wants to question one. Then, by attempting to leave, one can be arrested for resisting arrest, but this time taken into custody, transported to jail, booked, etc. It wasn't that long ago that one might be arrested for being drunk, dropped in the drunk tank, then let go without charges when one sobered up.
This is yet another problem with the ambiguity of the English language especially in the case of legal or professional jargon as opposed to general usage.
A seizure or forcible restraint; an exercise of the power to deprive a person of his or her liberty; the taking or keeping of a person in custody by legal authority, especially, in response to a criminal charge.
One can be arrested by being taken into custody. One does not have to be taken to jail or even charged with a crime. Simply saying "You. Stay where you are. I want to talk to you about what has happened" is enough to be considered arrest because the liberty of the person address has been removed. By attempting to leave, one is resisting arrest.
Please explain in detail why one would want to stop and/or remove "notification scripts of disk usage etc and a spaghetti of "backup" scripts to ensure that important data is on a couple of different physical servers at once so that minor problems don't require loading from a real backup".
By stopping and/or removing the scripts you list, the organization would then be exposed to possible outages and/or data loss. If the submitter was doing his job properly, he would have been maintaining those scripts and they would have been "replaced by a few less simple scripts to make it simpler" for himself or someone else.
The only example in your post was the desktop background script which should be on a workstation or desktop which would go with him to his next assignment. You are a sysadmin and you have a script on a server that downloads a photo and sets it as your desktop on said server? Why are you using a production server as workstation? Are you arrogant, stupid, or just incompetent?
That leads me to believe you have been abusing your access. There should be no need to stop, let alone remove, scripts any scripts from a production server when turning that server over to a new person. The only two explanations are either you are trying to hamstring him or you are doing something unethical, probably immoral, possibly illegal, and would definitely get you in trouble with your boss.

I bet you would be singing a different tune if the police needed leads on the people who gang raped your mother, wife, and daughter.

Yes, that is your post basically says. Here, want me to make it clearer for you?
Your post is a variation of the broken window fallacy and it is just as false.
It is a shame you can't keep a coherent argument. First you say we are slaughtering innocent civilians. Then, when I call you out on it, you talk about soldiers committing suicide. You ignore the fact that war is traumatic. Oh, and have you ever actually served in the military? Have you met what used to pass for a service member?

You are all for ripping off people and companies you don't like. Isn't that interesting.
Join the U.S. military go to another country kill many many civilians and maybe get a medal.
Your ignorance of military operations is staggering. Let me guess, every single civilian killed in Iraq was slaughtered by the U.S. military, right?
Yeah, because fiction is always a great representation of reality~
So, you will be OK with being fined for incompetence if your identity is stolen, or your car stolen, or your home is burgled, right? After all, if you were technically competent then it would never have happened.
So, what you are saying is that it is OK for me to steal from you as long as I buy something eventually, right?
If you are so hard up to use the internet, etc. either buy a tablet or a small cheap laptop.
No, I provided the context of the quotes. Now you are just outright lying like the little whiny bitch you are. I work with computers, I have already said so. What hasn't been said is what YOU do, which tells me you are not qualified to say shit, fuckwad.

Face it, shithead, you have proven that you aren't qualified to say shit. You spouted off and now you are slapped down, dogshit.
But, the users didn't by the database, or really databases. What they bought were access to entries in a database.
What's that bullshit? I call you out on some paranoid accusations, hold a mirrror up to you and you blame your whiney crap on me?
First, let us actually look at what I said, shithead:
Oh, and you are the one who brought up having shit run on one's workstation as an excuse for stopping and/or removing scripts
Oh, look, it looks like you are taking things out of context to try to score points. Now, let's look at what you said, shithead:
the example above is of a very trivial and unimportant script PURELY TO DEMONSTRATE THAT SOME SCRIPTS ARE NOT IMPORTANT AND CAN BE REMOVED. Obviously it's on my desktop machine.
Hey, what do you know, I was right and you are lying piece of shit.
It has become very clear that you are considering a single server environment and have very little clue about what you are commenting on

Yes, because a pat down and being raped with a night stick are the exact same thing.
Now, please, shut the fuck up, you worthless troll.

No, it is not based on reason. It is based on a bunch of bronze age fairy tales.
