Bummer. We're getting ready to deploy 300 access points across campus, but I'm trying to hold firm on my request that we develop a wireless policy before we do it. IT's a case of the cart before the horse as far as ordering, but it does feel damn good to have hardware waiting to be deployed instead of fighting for it.
We're aiming for ubiquitous wifi, but I'm not convinced we'll do it with 300 AP's. We shall see.:)
I'm entertained by the fact that I'll use over a/24 of ip space just for management addresses on my access points. Mwahahahaha.
So at the school I work at, we just spent the last three weeks of the summer lighting up 12000 gigabit ports. It's never been faster to copy every single episode of the simpsons across the network.:)
A busy as hell summer, but we're being poised to light up things like VoiP, TVoIP and ubiquitous wifi.
Normally I just shout "Ow, My Retina!" but yes, that music sucks. The fact there's no option to turn it off makes it that much worse. Your out of focus closeup pictures suck.
wow, I've not been this annoyed by a website in some time.

Fischer's cheese was never on his cracker. Ever.
Yes, he was/is a brilliant chess player, but other than that he's shown absolutely no positive social graces, a raging ego (into the bad side of ego - some ego good) a sense of vengeance overall and a pretty cracked sense of the world.
I'd even submit that there's a large portion of those who could be 'genius' and are wackos and/or socially inept as well.

I work for a school and they provide me a Treo serving as my cellular, pager and PDA.
They pay for my DSL at home. I have the bill sent here to the school and send it interoffice to our department admin assistant.
I'm expected to be available 24/7 and my share of the 365 in conjunction with my other network engineer here. We coordinate our time off so one of us is always here.
I'm salaried.
In the past, my job at 'middle sized ISP (20k subs)' paid for a cell phone we all shared in the department. They also paid in full for my pager. I got free dialup.
My job at 'small ISP (serving 5000 subs)' gave me a cell phone which served as my pager. I was not in range of DSL or wifi with them, but I still have a free dialup account from them (they know about it) and I had my own DSL that I paid for myself.
It's pretty much given that if I'm working to monitor and maintain the network, from wherever I am, they'll provide the means to connect me to that.
Point taken on the source. Thanks. (hard to read through these massive threads anymore).
Noting, however, that the source says "we would save twice the amount of oil that could be obtained from the arctic national wildlife refuge". Doesn't mean that oil companies wouldn't still want to suck what oil they can from the ANWR.

Source? Or is it out of your "Adjustable Support Satchel"? (just acronym it).
It's not oil dependency that should prevent us from drilling in the ANWR. It's a respect for the unrecoverable resource that is there, on TOP of the ground that should drive the decision. In light of that, the knowledge that every single days some oil company is spilling thousands of gallons of crude on the ground. Perhaps if the "Burns Slant Drilling Company" could engineer a way to remove the oil without drilling straight down, I'd be in favor of exploring ANWR for this resource, but not with the sloppiness oil companies use today.
There is no need to go into ANWR and drill for oil. There are plenty of other resources available that are renewable, free and/or very cheap. I'd love to see our government pouring money into solar research. or small scale hydro (backyard) or even small scale wind.
Okay, you've incited my tirade. Now it's time to me to do something much more worthwhile about it. Write a letter to my representatives. It's certainly more useful than a comment in slashdot.
like the other two posts following your comment, I've never had such a problem.
The last time I had gas overflow problems was at the local J&S Oil, where they pump gas and check oil for you (which is very rare in self serve states). It was just running and all of a sudden started pouring out. I jumped out quickly and turned it off (in fact, a risk jumping out of the car, per static possibilities) and waited for the staff to get their absorbent towels. They didn't even offer me a free gallon to make up for the gas their pump spilled and I ended up paying for. Bah.
I've never had a problem with jamming the cap into the pump nozzle. However, knowing that I have to fill up on the way home tonight, I will certainly have such a problem, cause I just said I never have:)
But anyone who thinks this is a stupid thing to have to hold the pump the whole damn time knows that shoving your gas cap into the handle will hold the valve open for you, allowing you to clean your windshield/windscreen and/or do other things than get your hand smelling like gasoline.
Denver, however, not only allows right turn on red, but in some cases, LEFT turn on red. Only in the one way areas, of course. Also, this was almost ten years ago, may have changed by now.
> I can't stand driving down a deserted road and > having the light ahead of me change to red for NO > GOOD REASON
And the "no good reason" is likely someone, somewhere, sitting in a Chevy Impala (or Ford/Lincoln Crown Vic) waiting for you to run that stop sign or red light, just so he/she can write you up for it.
Yep, it sucks, it's stupid, but in the areas I've seen it, it's best to wait. We have lights in a nearby town that are 1 second lights. Pull up to the sensors, it turns green a second or two later than one second (I timed it) it goes yellow.
I've told my former boss, who had to lay me off end of January, "There's a part of of me that makes glad you laid me off, maybe 5%".
I think 4% is due to the use of first class. (of course, a cow-orker in the office found a way to get his work mail into mutt, I never bothered bugging him enough to do it, since they finally made a OS X client).

Saw him in Camden Maine in 2003 where he was entertainment for a conference called Pop!Tech
He looks eerily like a person I used to work with and has a similar sense of humor. It was spooky.
Here's the song and the Lyrics

Well, yes, we will use 1918 space for it, but I still could use some of our class B "if I really wanted to".
All of the management interfaces are 1918 space. It doesn't make any sense to use anything different.

Then doesn't it also tend to reason that most road rage is the result of inpatient people? (the ragers).
