1. Get Vonage. VoIP that will let you have a local area code to new york and you can use over your broadband connection in any state. If you don't have broadband you can just forward it to you home phone. This allows you to "turn" off there access to you at a given time by stoping to forward which forces them into voicemail. Also I might add you can do this all on the web and soon the messages will be mail to you.
2. Divide your rooms. Don't work in the living room with the TV or anywhere else that has traffic.
3. Work computer, your computer. Keep them apart at all costs.
4. You are not at the office...politics are not fun when you are not around. Print everything in your e-mail so you have a "hard" record for that day you need it.
5. Don't keep drinks, or food at the ready. I know this sounds strange but people at your office take breaks. You should take them as well. Get out to the 7-11, take your hour lunch, and turn off the damn work computer when your done. Nothing like someone at work seeing you online in IM at 1am while you are playing Quake and needing a hand with a problem.
6. Get an exercise tape, tredmill, or something of this nature. I find that when I get pissed off, or stuck that getting a little work out in clears my mind and gives me a nice break in the middle of the day without having to leave. Some of the best ideas you will have will be when your not thinking about your problem.
Well sir, here is the deal. If you geta flawless diamond you can overclock the cpu to a power of 5 but with this VS1 diamond you only get an overclock to the power of 3. It is of course your decision but if it was me I would go with the flawless...you see this is really just a one time investment. Now lets talk about the cut, these is where it gets tricky. You see sir, diamonds are about light refraction, you know the sparkle. So it also hold true to your cpu as well as on your finger. You see sir you could have a good cut, a very good cut, or perfect. I would go with the perfect cut as this will increase your thourghput and your FPOs. We are almost done here, size does matter don't believe them when they tell you it does not! Go with the biggest one your can swing, and if you can't swing it we have financing, so don't worry about that. Get the "OH LORD" effect at your local LAN party when they see this big ass bitch lit up by some blue neon lights.
You come back now when that one gets slow I will hook you up with a "Three Stone" SMP unit. VEDDY NICE!
I once had a television set that would turn itself on or off every night at 2am, then again 9 minutes later. Accept on May the 7th for some strange reason. It died in my last move and did not give a rats ass about time zones or daylight savings time. So the time it did it's thing would flux with what ever was going on time zone wise. Just to kill your ideas of what was going on, this tv did not have a remote or any kind of digital timing device or service. It was just your run of the mill tv.
Works for windows and Unix(AIX, Solaris, HP-Ux) but I don't see support for Linux but I would guess that if you can get it to work on the above there is a tweak to get it working.
Just anouther option, I know it is not going to be the flavor of the month because it is not free or OSS.
really? I have one that would rather have a trip to hawaii, surf for 10 days straight, put the little silver band around her finger and grin like a school girl hooped up on sugar.
You see bud, it is not about the diamond. It is about knowing your girl. Some women want the diamond to show it off, others want a basic ring with a huge ass story behind it that every time someone asks her why she does not have a diamond she launches into her month long surf trip around the pacific.
I have that girl, and I am going to keep her. You can have the one that wants the diamond.
For every news artical about Moore's Law, there will be a two fold reduction in the amount of Moore's Law that is explained. Which at some point it becomes impossible to comprehend the difference between Moore's Law and Artical Fodder about why you need a new computer.
So true about the Ask Slashdot, this is a worthy question as most of the time you have to get the ARIN and BGP in the loop.
I was thinking that you could also do it on the cheap by running 2 lines with your typical outgoing redun links. Which is fine.
Then have a secondary DNS located outside your network, with very very short TTL and a perl script that checks your link state. Once one group of IPs go down your secondary remote DNS outside your network starts to feed your redundant group of IPs.
I do something like this with my home cable ip which is DHCP'ed. On my box at the house I have a script that check for ip changes, if it does change it notifies the remote DNS to change to the new ip. I don't see why you could not do something like this with 2 cheap links and small blocks. You would just have to worry about convergence and proxys that feed to your sites.
Anway, just leaking at the brain...I have been known to be wrong.
I wonder if more than 50% of the people reading this know what a cj-7 is. I think you should have gone for something a little more obscure like say and FJ40.
Interesting, I have had a job in the it sector for over 8 years and on pretty much every OS and server on the market.
Yes to all of you questions.
That question was right out of a A+ cert book. Google clearly states the ups and downs of ftp/http if you look.
This was a lazy way of having a large mass of smart people do your job. Period.
If you don't know the different between ftp/http and the pros and cons don't make a fool of yourself buy asking Slashdot. Ask your local tech, your local admin, or google as you so clearly put above.
If I went to a Aviation website and asked how put air in the tire I would be laughed off the site. That is my point. With that in mind I see where you are coming from, it was just a little low on the scale of "Ask Slashdot" for my tastes that is all. It really seemed like a lazy admin did not want to do his homework and handed it off.
Wish I had mod points for that post. I see one problem with this, which is the person responsible for it will no doubt have anywhere near the money to pay for this if busted. That leave someone somewhere on the hook for it. Alas, I agree that it never crossed my mind, but I think that was because I never figured that the thief would have enough to cover it.
I did some network and server work for one the the largest chamber makers in the US. They sent them all over the world and let me tell you it is very interesting just to see how they work and how they are put together.
These things are not cheap either. The last one I saw being made they where telling me it had already been sold for over 800,000 bucks and took about 4 months to make from the ground up.
2.2 million...it will be interesting to see what happends when who ever did this starts to sell them in bulk. Who is going to be responsible? The Credit Card companies or the site that got hosed?
Should prove interesting as these numbers start getting used. 2.2 is a little large of a block to just re-issue.
VPN with a CA unix gauntlet firewall/vpn setup. The client is very esay to set up and use for anyone, and the GUI is close enough to the NT gaunlet to get your NT techs over the difference.
Everyone pretty much has cable or dsl, and the company will pay for 1/2 as both parties know that the other would have a dailup at the very least no matter what. This way both sides feel like they are getting a good deal. We also use Citrix on the back end and keep track of the time that the techs are logged into the system. The citrix server will log them off after 10 minutes of idle time so the company has a track record of who was busy with what, and when.

Still that comment about the Iraq IFM made my shoot diet coke out my nose. That was on time!
Kind of like Kevin Mitnick doing network security....WAIT A MINUTE!
lots of people with end up with all kinds of things in their hands.

and OS version of auto-update? Just kidding...
If you had a 1024 node cluster of these things you could load windowsXP in just under 3 months.
I have something like that, it makes strange growling noises need my belly buttons right around lunch time.
Good!

I think I am wrong but can't let it go. Didn't people bash Apple for making them submit program code back in the day?
No idea why that is a splinter in my brain.
DOH!
HUB, "MALFORMED PACKET!!!! AHHH!!!! - HELP HELP HELP! I am lost!"
Router "Calm down, this is nothing compared to the broadcast storm of 93. Everything will be alright."
HUB, "Thank you,"
Router "These simpletons, when will they ever learn just to ignore that packet."
ala - bugs life.
