Have you ever signed the bill for having AC installed for your computer room in an existing building?
Yes, I have. It can be significant. As is the Generator and battery backup.
Did you know that the current portable data centers have neither of these.....just places to hook them up to externally? So don't be so sure about rule #1 being wrong.
I was doing repair work on machines at Abbott Labs in Rocky Mount, NC over 10 years ago and they had something exactly like this. It was disturbing to know it was being run on a MicroVAX - especially when one of those 1200lb pallet jack robots was heading for you.
If your VPN were set up properly it would be split routing, so only internal IPs (and possibly remote site-to-site VPNs normally reachable through the internal network) are reachable through the VPN, and everything else goes out of the default route. Which, internally, ought to be the same websense-enabled box in this situation.
It's not rocket science, but when server admins take care of network infrastructure, this is what one ends up with.
For those not familiar with the moderately bizarre taxation schemes brought into existence by agribusiness, diesel sold to farmers to fuel their power farming equipment is "untaxed" and dyed red at the distributor to distinguish it from "road" diesel
It's also called #2 home heating oil - no difference. It's also sold to the construction/excavation industry to run site equipment like track hoes and site trucks - whatever doesn't go on the road the runs on diesel.
I don't see how this is all the bizarre - road taxes are paid via fuel - I don't know if that's fair or not, but that's how it is. Fuel for vehicles not destined to be on the road don't have to pay their share of the tax. Farm vehicles count as this. Yes, farmers abuse the privilege by registering pickups as farm vehicles and shouldn't be doing so, but it's hardly bizarre.
I write code to accomplish a task I wanted to do. The code is largely funcional, but may break around end cases or often has poor exception handling.
Hey....that's why all my code sucks too! Seriously - that's why I don't even bother. If it work for the audience it was intended for, and isn't particularly unique, its a whole lot of work to make it legible, comment it, and actually do all of the proper exception handling that we all know should be there.
I've been married for 10 years and I agree with you 100%. Men who don't take any crap from their wives normally end up divorced.
I've been married for 7, and I 100% agree with you. The important part of that statement that is missing is that Women who don't take any crap from their husbands normally end up divorced as well.
I have a hard time understanding the motivations behind so many marriages. I'm happy. Do I do absolutely everything I want exactly how and when I want to? No. And either does she. Its about compromise for the things you don't agree on so that you can have all the rest of the time for the things that you do. That's the part that makes marriage worthwhile. And if that's the smallest part of your marriage: you fucked up. GET OUT NOW.
It's beyond me how someone would switch carriers without trying out the service first. A $20 prepaid phone from RadioShack or similar comes with like $10 worth of airtime. Carry it around your normal places for a week. Try it first.
It's really your own fault if you lost that kind of money because you aren't in a good enough service area - it's just not that hard to figure out before signing a 2-year contract, ESPECIALLY on a phone with a restocking fee.
Yeah...totally OT, but anyway, if you live in an area of the US with a reasonably sized Jewish population and want Coke with real sugar, just stock up during passover with the passover version. It has a yellow top with Hebrew writing on the 2 liters. I bought like a case of them....that ought to last me the whole year, as I only need Coke to mix with my Jack Daniels.
I'm not sure what jurisdiction you're talking about, but that's simply not the case universally. In Pennsylvania, parking tickets go to district court if unpaid. They are summary offenses against the registered owner(s) of the vehicle, and will result in an arrest warrant and immediate suspension of the license(s) when not paid, usually for more than 6 months. Ask me how I know. Do I need to scan the letter?
FYI, It was dismissed, as I have a valid parking pass. Arrantly I got ticketed and it blew off/I didn't notice/whatever, but the original ticket was inaccurate because I'm allowed to be parking there.
Fantastic news, and I hope it starts a trend. Really, I don't men to bag on the Wiki, because I use it all the time, but I cringe every time I see it cited as an authoritative source. Can you imagine citing the wikipedia in a white paper or other professional paper? How about in a court document? If any of you feel that is appropriate, you need to get some reprogramming done. I've got a 5 lb sledge hammer that I can start the process with.
Have you ever leased a car? Do you know how it works? Very often, you end up paying just as much, if not more, than if you had bought the car and sold it when you were done with it.
There are 2 main reasons for leasing: You can't/don't want to afford a proper down payment and/or in a business situation you have already hit your capex for the year and need to figure out how to depreciate another asset.
And while the stock market appreciates on average 10%/year, the real estate market is only 6%/year. Equity in real estate is wasted money.
Ummmmmm.....when you own your home and move out, you take a big fat check with you. All of that "rent" you've been paying your mortgage company.
When you move out of a rental you get your security deposit back.
Can you please explain how renting is a better option financially?
I completely agree, but it seems to me that if this feature were desired by consumers, it would be m0ore prevalent. I mean, we're talking about a 10 year old VCR. Its not exactly new technology, and it's not as bad as some other hacks that end up in consumer hardware.
Because your cable is analog (and the VCR has a "cable-ready" tuner) you can leave it off and it will turn on and change channels as it needs to to record the shows. With digital cable this isn't possible. The VCR has no way to control the cable box on its own!
The last VCR I bought, a Sony (one of the higher end consumer models) has a "cable mouse", which is just an IR transmitter that you put over the receiver of a cable box/directv box. It changes the channels on the box and works just fine.

The state did perform the follow up test, but it showed up as negative, so they pretended they had not performed it.
Not disputing anything at all that you said, but if that is the case, it's highly illegal and grounds for disbarment of the prosecutor. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exculpatory_evidence
Put car in [P]ark. Shake steering wheel and phone. Is it that hard?
I have a manual gearbox, you insensitive clod!

As for me: not my problem. I'm perfectly happy.

Well, I'm just trying to make it through on one liver. I figure that gives me a sporting chance.

Fine. You figured out I'm stupid. Be that way.
Component video is neither S-Video nor composite video. I think you missed the parent's point.
I used my sig to update mine.
Well, 48V is that PoE supplies, and most, if not all, PoE devices that can also use a wall wart run on that. But your point is still valid.

Rent it (lease it) because cars do the opposite.

That's right. No GNAA for you.
Yep. Burn, karma, burn.
