  1. happened to me on Cisco Blamed A Router Bug On 'Cosmic Radiation' (networkworld.com) · · Score: 4, Funny

    I work at a fortune 500 and I had to explain this to management just a few years ago on a Cisco 6500. It was a tough sell but I recall having a similar issue in the late 90's/ early 2000's with sun hardware so it isn't new. That was was even better to explain. The Sun's cosmic rays were causing the Sun's hardware to break!

    I second openfiler. With 500gb drives at 99$ you should be able to get a box with 2-3 drives together for under 500$

  3. Re:I fly with no ID all the time. on Going to Yosemite? Get Your Passport Ready! · · Score: 2, Interesting

    like most things in life all is not what they would have you believe. Your airline will require you to show ID if you check bags(I do not check bags although I am even exempt from that with the airline I fly due to frequent flyer status). Once you get to the man/women who asks for your ID say I have no ID and show him your ticket, they will ask did you lose it usually. At that point I like to add in a no I didnt but good thing I don't have one because that line sure is shorter. They will give you evil looks one lady even asked me are you doing this to get the shorter line and asked me again if I had ID. I just smiled and said nope no ID. They then put "SSSS" on your ticket and you get the fast lane. At some busy airports this can save 10-15 minutes of standing in line.

    For those that don't know at most airports being a selectee is easier than not being one. You save time by not taking off your shoes(if the airport is equiped).

  4. I fly with no ID all the time. on Going to Yosemite? Get Your Passport Ready! · · Score: 1

    I fly with no id when the lines are long. All that happens is you are a "selectee" never been a problem so how will this be any different?

  6. Re:Terminal Monkey on Interview of Danger (Sidekick II) CEO Hank Nothhaft · · Score: 1

    As long as you don't need to access a cisco router the ssh client is ok. The ssh client does not implement des just blowfish thats why it can't connect to a cisco.

  7. Re:In a word... on Is A Catch-All Address Worth The Spam? · · Score: 1

    Well I can say u don't always get a "prompt" bounce from a mail server. I sent an email to my current GF in FEB of 2000 I never heard from her I was bummed out. I then saw her like a month later she said she never got it and we set a date then(we have been together since). In July of 2000 I got my bounce back and sure enough I had typoed it. Sad thing was I worked for the ISP and had root on the box. I looked at what the problem was and it was our ghetto mailserver, it was so overloaded it stopped proccessing bouncebacks. WTF but at least I got the girl.
