  1. Re:So who will win the PR war on Massachusetts Drops Hammer on Spam Gang · · Score: 1

    Well, Thomas Reilly, the AG of Massachusetts is set to run for Governor in 2006 so this is probably not much more then a PR move for his campaign

  2. Re:ALL of this begs the question... on Real ID: You Can Still Fight It · · Score: 5, Insightful

    They are criminals by definition. They broke immigration laws and entered the country illegally. Calling them undocumented workers or another PC term is intellectually dishonest.

  3. Re:FF killer. on IE7 Details Emerge · · Score: 1

    FF Killer? The Doctor Doom of browsers!

  4. Boxing Videos on Hitachi to Release Half TB Drive Soon · · Score: 1

    I collect boxing videos. In the past VHS was the norm but there are well known quality issues about the format. The new way is to record fights in either mpeg or VCD etc. Fights generally go from 300-1000 in length. It's not too difficult to imagine how much space one need to have a large collection. Right now, i have 300gb in storage between my desktop, server, and external hardrives and i am full. I welcome hard drives this size. Of course, how do you back it up?

  5. I am in the same boat on From Software to Soup: On Trading Coding for Crepes · · Score: 1

    I have recently been part of a lay off after 2 1/2 years as a Sys Admin. Having been rather disillusioned with my company and the industry as a whole, I am currently contemplating a switch to a job in the Criminal Justice field, which I hold a Master degree in. While it is almost assured that it will pay less, I believe, perhaps naively, that it will make a difference somehow in the long run. At the end, when I look back, I really do not want to see that all my life's work was just to make some fat-cat CEO and money-grubbing stockholders rich as a cog in the corporate machine.

  6. I am not sure what Globalism is.... on Defining Globalism · · Score: 1

    but if a professor from Amherst thinks it's a good thing, then I know is EVIL!
