  1. Just something to keep in the back of your mind.. on Did Microsoft Invent The iPod? · · Score: 0

  2. They are on the right track, IBM that is.. on IBM Calls for Patent Reform · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    First I worked for IBM for 5 years before I offshored myself to europe... Yes I did it to myself.. Southern EU

    I know that IBM is on the right track. I know and have seen what bad software/ hardware patents can do. It stifles ideas and makes many inovatutions second-guessed and sometimes not implemented at all. If the patent office opens up and looks broader at the possibility of work done then we can be more competive and forwarded thinking/moving in general. Seeking patents for work that is not right, but done all the time. I give IBM support in this by saying; this is what is needed to be done before it is too late.

  4. We just had the problems of network sniffing.... on Using Snort Stealthily · · Score: 0

    Hello, I am the Network Systems Administrator for a very large Company. Last week one of the employees at my location used Snort (or somthing else) on the internal network on a company computer (with a operating system that was not suppost to be installed on it). Being a company that does projects that are of a secure nature (DOD etc). I caught this person (using my anti-sniffer) and I had to hand him over to the proper authorities, (His bosses's). I had to inform them that this is action and was a network NO-NO. This person did not need to have this computer (that is used for testing electrical circuits) connected to the network. They said in responce that they wanted to keep this computer on the network.(For what reason I do not know.) But now I am watching any and all traffic coming or going from that machine. I personaly think that this person will get a slap on the hand for this. I should also say that the person in question has no reason in his job (electrial technician) to scan my network.

  5. I was Home schooled thru 12th Grade... on Home-Schooling and "Open Source" Materials? · · Score: 0

    Hello I just want to say that in some states in the United States (WA, OR, ETC. Have homeschooling groups. They get together and are a way to support and help each other out. I was homeschooled in WA state. In the state there was groups called REACH. Reach-East was the the part that my mom was a part of. They had people that would help you start your own format of schooling from helping you get the right books to how to grade papers. Also they would help you get the WA state required tests to show you were doing the job correctly. I have just finished AA degree and becuase of homeschooling most of my AA in Networking Systems. I did not have to study. I learned what I needed ahead of the degree at home. This is beause I had an Idea of what I wanted to do. Since I was homeschooled, more people are doing more and more homeschooling and ther are more homeschooling Groups.

  8. Re:Ummm.... NO. on National Biometric IDs · · Score: 1

    I think that you are right about trusting a goverment that does not take security seriously. This concerns me because goverment will have more power that can be miss used by part of a goverment or system invaders (Cracker / Hackers etc..) . This IS something that I know they all ready (Not Centrly based) can do but puts all of the eggs in the same basket. Does not sound good to me...
