  1. Re:again? on NFTables To Replace iptables In the Linux Kernel · · Score: 3, Informative

    http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/nutshell.html#introduction-nutshell-users You also forgot some biggies, like Netflix, oh and Apache themselves. Sampling an OS's usage numbers off of how many public facing web servers are out there will give you very biased results. I have two FreeBSD servers running OpenBGPd and OpenOSPFd, and two that are NFS servers, there is absolutely no web server on them. They are ROCKS of stability. This is just FreeBSD, a partner ISP I work with runs OpenBSD route reflectors.

  2. I'm pretty sure they weren't the first. on WD Launches 3 Terabyte HD · · Score: 3, Informative
  3. Re:Try "fishing for noobs", not admins. on New "Spear Phishing" Attacks Target IT Admins · · Score: 1

    First thing I'd do is go "OH! IPs!" and hit arin. Then I'd go "RIPE? I don't f-ing think so!" Then again, I'm goofy about looking up IPs all the time. :D

  4. Re:One has to wonder on YouTube To Kill IE6 Support On March 13 · · Score: 1

    No one in their right mind, except all the clueless users out there that haven't been forced into upgrades. I find customers running ie6 all the time, and I promptly run updates.

  5. Re:This calls for... on Steve Ballmer Directing "House Party 7" · · Score: 0, Troll

    Have fun with that sausage fest. I applied to host a Win7 party. I'm sure I'll have a better chance at getting women to attend mine. =)

  6. Re:Its not rocket surgery... on Staying In Shape vs. a Busy IT Job Schedule? · · Score: 1

    As a newly divorced guy, I couldn't resist laughing very loudly when I ready this. =)

  7. Re:I have the solution you need... on DHCP Management Across a Diversified Network? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I concur.. I have over 2000 hosts covered with my DHCP server, 24 hour lease, the server never breaks 0.00 loads. We also use DHCP-Relay in about 5 places across the network. Its tasty :)

  8. Re:Well, the cable industry should know. on Disney Strikes Against Net Neutrality · · Score: 1

    Weeds: Showtime

  9. Re:Well, the cable industry should know. on Disney Strikes Against Net Neutrality · · Score: 3, Insightful

    You're saying you can't entertain three screaming kids without Disney? That's pretty sad. I've entertained more than three children on many occasions.

  10. Strange... on Teen Diagnoses Her Own Disease In Science Class · · Score: 1

    Not really my area of expertise... but where/how did she get this tissue? Extracting intestinal samples doesn't sound like something we did in high school...

  11. Re:Curious side-effect of the DTV switchover on US Switch To DTV Countdown Begins · · Score: 1

    In my jetta, I can pick up the audio from our local channel 6 station in the 80's. Think 87.7ish. :) RF can bleed a tad when you crank up the transmit power.

  12. Re:The pre-existing condition is a claim of fraud. on Murder Victim's Claim Denied for 'Pre-Existing Condition' · · Score: 1

    He couldn't afford a test but he could afford the insurance? Why is everyone assuming that he doesn't have money if he's a junkie.. I've known a few junkies with some serious cash.

    Disclaimer: I really don't know what I'm talking about, just hit some weird red flags. :)

  13. Re:Why our infrastructure is vulnerable on Multiple Fiber Cuts In San Francisco Area · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Us fiber owners have these neat tools that will tell you exactly where a fiber is damaged. To the foot.

    or it didn't happen...

  15. This is hardly extreme. on Build Your Own SATA Hard Drive Switch · · Score: 3, Insightful

    This is a power switch. Nothing more. Certainly not a sata switch. As much as I love soldering.. I'll stick with grub for this one. Then I can at least share my media across OSes.

  16. Re:Not news for nerds. on Slumdog Millionaire Takes Home 8 Oscars · · Score: 1

    I concur. The terms geek and nerd have gone too mainstream. I used to get made fun of because I was a nerd, now everyone calls themselves a geek or a nerd. "Look i got a new [TV|ipod|cellphone], I don't know how to hook it up and can barely use it, but I'm such a geek for getting it!" The hell with that, screw all you posers. Go back to being wiggers or something.

  18. Re:Out of curiosity on Utah Mulls a Database of Bar Customers · · Score: 4, Funny

    I disagree. They obviously don't have time to commit crimes when they have 20 wives nagging at them.

  19. Re:Both! on Torvalds Rejects One-Size-Fits-All Linux · · Score: 1

    YEAH! WOOO!!! Ok.. how do I install these RPMs? You know.. for the handful of things that I run that ONLY come in RPM format?

    Trust me.. we still need those niche dists. Maybe not all of them, but many of them.

    Now don't get me wrong. I use ubuntu in a few places, but as long as Cpanel is RPM based, I will continue to run RH/Cent boxen too.

    He has nothing to say about it, because "I'm fucking Matt Damon"

  23. Last sentance is incorrect. on DTV Coupon Program Out of Money · · Score: 1

    This drives me fucking batshit insane (I work for a small cable co)... I hate these fear mongering pieces of shit for not clarifying this better:

    The last sentence should read: " Older analog televisions will no longer work without a converter box OR CABLE TELEVISION after February 17. "

  24. Re:Werd on Microsoft Zunes Committing Mass Suicide · · Score: 1

    Actually when mine locks the reset trick won't work. I always have to wait for the battery to go dead. :(

  25. Werd on Microsoft Zunes Committing Mass Suicide · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    I'm really glad my iPod has never locked up.. (like 20 times or so). It usually happens when I'm driving too, which REALLY pisses me off.

    But this is what happens people, you want more and more technology in your pocket? In your car? in your phone? Then you're going to have more bugs, and lock ups. GET USED TO IT. My old POS KeyoCera flip phone never once "crashed" on me. My crackberry (8703e) has locked up 2 or 3 times in 2 years. Not that horrible, but the more complex the machine, the more chances it has to break.
