BYOD means you can no longer trust your own network because you no longer have the same level of control over the devices on it. And if you do not trust your own network, you need to increase your security costs substantially and provide other resources that you would otherwise not need to offer. So while you're saving around $1000 per year per user on hardware, you're spending more on licensing for NAC and VDI/RDP/ICA. You also need to amp up the local tier1/2 support because now without standards they're going to be spending more time dealing with more types of machines. Any gains made by standardization will be utterly destroyed.
BYOD is a short sighted, stupid idea thought up by someone who sure as hell has no experience with I/T support.
We already do you pompus twit. We rail against companies like EA for many reasons, and the games they produce is only part of it. We also rail against them because they are a HORRIBLE COMPANY TO WORK FOR. I've been approached twice for a job with EA in the last year, and twice I've politely declined despite the numbers looking good. Why? Because they suck.
Honestly, how can we have a BSD post and NOT have the "BSD is Dying" meme?
One more crippling bombshell hit the already beleaguered *BSD community when IDC confirmed that *BSD market share has dropped yet again, now down to less than a fraction of 1 percent of all servers. Coming on the heels of a recent Netcraft survey which plainly states that *BSD has lost more market share, this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along. *BSD is collapsing in complete disarray, as fittingly exemplified by failing dead last http://www.samag.com/documents/s=1148/sam0107a/0107a.htm in the recent Sys Admin comprehensive networking test.
You don't need to be a Kreskin http://www.amdest.com/stars/Kreskin.html to predict *BSD's future. The hand writing is on the wall: *BSD faces a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for *BSD because *BSD is dying. Things are looking very bad for *BSD. As many of us are already aware, *BSD continues to lose market share. Red ink flows like a river of blood.
FreeBSD is the most endangered of them all, having lost 93% of its core developers. The sudden and unpleasant departures of long time FreeBSD developers Jordan Hubbard and Mike Smith only serve to underscore the point more clearly. There can no longer be any doubt: FreeBSD is dying.
Let's keep to the facts and look at the numbers.
OpenBSD leader Theo states that there are 7000 users of OpenBSD. How many users of NetBSD are there? Let's see. The number of OpenBSD versus NetBSD posts on Usenet is roughly in ratio of 5 to 1. Therefore there are about 7000/5 = 1400 NetBSD users. BSD/OS posts on Usenet are about half of the volume of NetBSD posts. Therefore there are about 700 users of BSD/OS. A recent article put FreeBSD at about 80 percent of the *BSD market. Therefore there are (7000+1400+700)*4 = 36400 FreeBSD users. This is consistent with the number of FreeBSD Usenet posts.
Due to the troubles of Walnut Creek, abysmal sales and so on, FreeBSD went out of business and was taken over by BSDI who sell another troubled OS. Now BSDI is also dead, its corpse turned over to yet another charnel house.
All major surveys show that *BSD has steadily declined in market share. *BSD is very sick and its long term survival prospects are very dim. If *BSD is to survive at all it will be among OS dilettante dbblers. *BSD continues to decay. Nothing short of a miracle could save it at this point in time. For all practical purposes, *BSD is dead.
Damn rights you need my explicit permission to gather data on my children, and if you object to this, then you are not only the problem you are a parasite who is in need of extermination.
Stay away from my children you greedy soul-less fucks.
The only reason why I have a Mac Mini is because you are running a modified version of UNIX. This pleases me. But be forewarned: If your future plans include replacing BSD UNIX with your shitass iOS, I am so fucking gone. Your shitty phones are already on my do not buy list, and I have no qualms with dumping your PCs.
This is an issue with a utility company. The fact that it was Microsoft is a red herring. If anything, utilities should have a pricing structure that punishes overconsumption and rewards under-consumption. In this instance the utility is ass backwards and they should be the ones who are shamed.
I disagree. there are some valid applications for the cloud, such as outsourcing low volume or low priority services such as FTP or fax. But once you cross the line into storing office documents then the business risk grows exponentially. It is all about finding a balance.
you *should* be concerned. It started with hotmail when they disabled the ability to download email to your home computer, and its only going to get worse. I literally cannot archive my email to an offline store and it is, in effect, owned by Microsoft. They can do with it as they wish, and I can't stop them.
If you cannot disassemble them to separate the components, then they are not recyclable. Thats the big issue here: Apple is now making their products so it is impossible to taking it apart by gluing dissimilar components together.
The laws are there to protect children. This is true. What is not true is the assertion that no children are harmed in the making of these images. A graphic drawn image of CP may not be the direct result of an abused child, but it will add to the potential of a child being abused. Considering these images as legal only serves to "normalize" this mental illness and predatory behaviour. Anything which dierctly feeds the Pedophiles illness is in of itself dangerous.
If you consider me ill-informed, then so be it. I'd rather be uninformed than a pedophile apologist.
So are you suggesting that a masterfully done manga of a 4 year old being graphically raped by an older man is *not* child pornography? Or perhaps a 7 year old boy pleasuring an old man in all its pulp throbbiness?
Drawings can certainly be child porn, make no mistake about it. The question is where can the law draw the line.

Why would I put my trust in a company that is outsourcing ALL of their tech staff overseas?
Piss off IBM, as long as you're not investing in local tech, you're irrelevent.

I was programming in Basic in 1979. Get off *my* lawn. Oh and keep funding Social Security for me. KTHXBYE.

Fact: *BSD is dying
Oh no, the bitcoin ponzi schemes will have to double their reward in order to be viable!
Apart from silk road, bitcoins have practically zero value in the vast majority of financial transactions, so why do we care about this?
Have all the presenters in blackface, and then have them announce that they are embracing diversity.
How stupid of an idea is this? Just treat everyone fairly, how hard is that?

Question:
Is there a handy HOWTO to make it a wee bit more embeddable, such as adding defaults for port, host and user?
merge it with RIM, and bring in new management so neither culture can dominate the other.
There is good in both companies, but both companies suffered greatly at the hands of management.

Exactly. NVidia hasn't done anything of note except produce good video cards and GPUs.
Why are you sperging over what sounds like nothing more than an MXC clone? Life goes on.

Leave the TomTom at home.
Not of me of course, I was merely an innocent bystander, too afraid of my wifes wrath.
