  1. POE Coffee Warmer on IP Telephony Drives in Power over Ethernet · · Score: 0

    Now if I could just get that POE to Firewire to USB adapter to work....

  2. Hire Consultants on Where Would You Outsource Your Datacenter? · · Score: 0

    I'm sorry I got go, got a meeting with the Bobs.

    No really, I am a consultant and I provide all the services to some companies. I am too busy to accept this work but find a good consultant (that was hard to type with out laughing). The trick is to get the home address of the consultant and his/her parents and other faimly members and tell him/her that you are from Italy.

    I don't care what Parent gets modded that is some funny shit. On topic, funny, & insightfull.

  5. Basement Hacking on Writing Letters for Cold Canvassing (IT) Jobs? · · Score: 0
    What is the best way of mentioning the time you spend in the basement hacking away on your OSS project or the kernel?

    How do you tell the interviewer that you wrote the

    How convenient

  7. Squirt and Juice on Best Leatherman-Style Multitool? · · Score: 3, Informative

    Both the Leatherman Squirt and Juice are great. I would suggest testing the phillips driver on any multitool first as some are different. The Squirt has a flat phillips that actually works, a little strange but it does work. I also keep a Gerber multitool in the back pack. The Gerber is nice and locks closed or open. I don't care for the size but the pliers are a little better because you can spread apart things that the leatherman can't. Overall I would say that with the low prices on most multitools it is worth while to have multiple of them, one in the truck, one in the apparment, etc....

  8. Re:how about certificates? on Google Eyes Domain Registration Market · · Score: 0

    Agreed, and Google should have the bandwidth to answer the requests.

  9. It can't reproduce on What's Wrong with Unix? · · Score: 0

    You know with the trimming of important parts and all.

  10. Freshmeat on Running a Small Business on the Linux Platform? · · Score: 0

    When you are looking for source.
    Try Freshmeat.net of course.

    (hint look at the top of this window or the bottom right block on the main page.)

  11. Now you know... on Too Many Computers Hurt Learning · · Score: 0

    And knowing is half the battle...

    Computer ownership and use are the issue here. I have had access to computers most of my life and have found the external forces pushed me into the IT industry. Constructive challenges from peers and physical injury are the foundations of my knowledge.

    As far as grades or learning ablity I have found that the size and type of a childs village is the only factor. It takes a village to raise a child and some parents outsource that as well.

  12. OSRAIDS on ERP/CMS for Small Business IT consultants · · Score: 0

    I use OSRAIDS, it is unfinished and the project needs help. I am the project manager so I know these things. But over all a perfect fit for your needs. I call it a CBS or Consultant Babysitting System.

  14. Bittorrent & Etherape on Network Performance Testing? · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Bittorrent & Etherape is all you need.

    try a dvd iso bittorrent and run it while browsing network shares with large directories. For fun open a file on a network share like a video and stop and move forward often.

  15. Re:If it weren't for gravity, I could fly. on Where To Find Ambitious Business Partners? · · Score: 0

    Or in short, use google before submiting a story, unless /. is getting low on stories.

  16. Why.... on Where To Find Ambitious Business Partners? · · Score: 0

    It is hard to retire when you are always working. Learn a language and move abroad, lots of buzzword Eddies around the world.

  17. Hot spares on Experiences w/ Software RAID 5 Under Linux? · · Score: 1, Informative

    Declare at least one hot spare. I would declare two for your setup but YMMV.

  19. Snom on Cheap and Reliable IP Telephony? · · Score: 1

    http://www.snom.com/

    I like their systems and they are $200 on the bottom end and go up to $400 on the phones. I mention this because I here the Cisco phones are steep!!! Also have built in switch and POE.
