  1. Screensaver? on Should Colleges Ban Classroom Laptop Use? · · Score: 1

    First off, I think as a student your own level of focus ought to lead you to not be distracted by someones screensaver (I mean, unless of course the screensaver belongs to an adolescent male with a fixation on boobs). Second, why the hell would you waste battery life on a laptop with a screensaver, just shut the damn screen off. That is all.

  2. Re:Just ask on Company Laptop, My Data — Can They Co-exist? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Well, I'm an IT Manager and we've done stuff like this, if the licenses belong to him and the president of my company wanted to give him some money to help we wouldn't claim ownership. If we want to claim ownership we purchase the equipment and file all the necessary paperwork and inform them of their rights. I believe it's possible to separate work and personal time even in this age. We try to be nice around here. You are however correct, and more so then I am in in the larger scope of things.

  3. Just ask on Company Laptop, My Data — Can They Co-exist? · · Score: 1

    Tell them you'd like to take him up on his offer, it's very generous, but tell him how you fell about the situation and that you lay claim to all your data. If there's no IP agreement you had to sign before then they'd have no legal basic to lay claim to it. P.S. IANAL so I could be mistaken.

  4. Re:Currency farming in space ? on EVE Online's Fight Against Currency Farmers · · Score: 1

    Are they doing this on the ISS ? I was just wondering about the "space" tag on this article.

    The tag is Games Space, not Space. Just FYI.

  5. Cars are creations... on RIAA Says "Don't Expect DRMed Music To Work Forever" · · Score: 1

    And if they just stopped working for no reason you can be sure there'd be hell to pay... at least in a court somewhere... That's some pretty flawed logic...

  6. CUPS (not the printer kind) on Internal Instant Messaging Client / Server Combo? · · Score: 1

    Cisco Unified Presence Server, aka Cisco Personal Communicator. It's an IM client / server, it's also for a VoIP phone system so it does much more, and it's probably way too expensive for what you want to do... or maybe not.

  7. Adaptec's Snap server on What NAS To Buy? · · Score: 1

    I recommend Snap servers. They've worked pretty well for me so far... It even uses a Linux kernel... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snap_Server http://www.snapappliance.com/

  8. That is why... on OpenDNS Says Google-Dell Browser Tool is Spyware · · Score: 1

    when I consult with my customers on Dell purchases, I advise them to bring it to my shop to work on first thing. I boot it up, go through the setup for them, and remove Google desktop / toolbar (why IE7 has pop up blockers, anti phishing, and a search bar, and Firefox has all that and more) and then towards the bottom of a fresh Dells add remove programs list is "Search Assistant." Remove it, because an end user doesn't need the extra junk installed.

  9. Just before he died... on Enron's Kenneth Lay Dies · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    In regards to his appeal, he was heard saying, "If I'm lying, I'm dieing." And then, with a heavy heart... well, y'know the story.

  10. Re:Maybe I'm paying too much attention to detail.. on Windows Compute Cluster Server 2003 Released · · Score: 0, Redundant

    See Above ^

  11. Re:If they weren't farmers, they'd be on their own on Bad Press For Gold Farmers Affects Chinese Players · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Actually ninjitsu originated in china. It was "borrowed" by the japanese during times when Bushido was at it's highest and some powers thought they needed some skilled fighters with a different set of skills.

  13. Re:Quote from TFA on Shrimp Bandages Clot Blood Faster · · Score: 1

    Arterial bleeding is easy to fix, you just slap on a tourneqit and yell for a medic. bleedin is a PITA to stop, you have to tie a pressure bandage and hold it in place till the bleeding stops...

    and thats not easy when you're getting shot at
