  1. Re:Dress like daddy on Body Modifications Still Hinder IT Professionals? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    **Unconventional people do the same thing. The difference is that they filter out the people in the suits and ties instead of the green hair and the nose rings.**

    Sadly enough, its too true. I work for a city hospital in the IT field. I have subdermal implants, scarifications, large stretched piercings...etc etc. All of these modifications are rather "hardcore mods" yet they are not visible. I have these modifications for myself and myself only. A lot of my closest friends are tattoo artists and piercers AND i work for a large suspension team and i used to be a piercer for four years. Anyway, going to tattoo conventions, meeting other modified people, visiting tattoo shops....some of them (them as in "modified" people) look at me like i have no idea what im doing. Like i walked in to the wrong room. Yet when someone with green hair and visible tattoos walks in.....they get 50 cool points as opposed to me getting none.

    I love the look on their faces when they realize how involved i actually am in this modification community though.

    But whatever, i'll just go back to work at my well paying job and continue to live my life as i see fit.....as everyone else should.

  16. Re:Easy...Ninnle! on In Which OS Do You Feel More Productive? · · Score: 1

    you know....some people actually like windows over linux though. I have a friend who prefers doing all his school work on a windows machine because on a linux machine will get distracted with fiddleing with it. And with a mac they just havent given it too much of a try....they are kind of expensive. I on the other hand would prefer doing all my work on a mac.....less distractions.

  20. Re:Interoperability and sharing... on Tech Giants Push Open Standards for Health Network · · Score: 1

    I work at the IS department for a hospital and we have the same set up. To access the medical records we use a personbalized darakey and a password. It logs every patient you view and keeps it in records. BUT, there is a way around....i have authority to reset passwords and log on to accounts without the use of a key. Just type the key/badge number of a user/doctor and retrieve their password. Now it looks like that doctor was accessing those medical records and not i. But i dont ever really do this....only because all that medical record lingo means nothing to me...haha.
