  1. Wardriving in Maryland on MD Bill Would Criminalize Theft of Wireless Access · · Score: 0, Troll

    This law will never fly, then again Martin O'Malley is a douche bag; so, it has hope. the scarier law is the 6% IT tax. Either way not to be all 2003 in he heah' but War driving in Maryland, specifically Downtown Baltimore, or even the majestic suburb of Columbia, MD used to show a ridiculous amount of open access points, that included many many businesses. I laud the attempt to be progressive, but, its a poor attempt.

    I just installed Ubuntu for the first time yesterday. Firefox, by default, will download to the desktop (/Desktop in your home directory [maybe ./desktop if thats the right denotation for a hidden file]).

    I have found "making the switch" much easier with Ubuntu. Last time I tried was Fedora and it was a little painful to make the switch.

    Best of luck to you.

    The steps it took for me to patch an MS Exchange server were the same steps it took to get to a RHEL 4 box patched, the only difference was that the RHEL patch took and needed no reboot.

    ummmm, no, you're wrong. Exchange 2007 is the only M$ product I have yet to patch.

    VMware ESX 3.0.1 is the only OS I have not seen, in a very mixed environment, that has not needed a patch.

    I actually feel dumb after reading your post. Where the hell do you get Salem witch trials out of asking the community to get involved. Ohhh thats right, the hidden message in the article where they throw out journalistic integrity. I have an idea, have another warm cup of "I'm so smart and biter". Tell me more about the company since you appear to know so much about it and how its run ... you dumbass.

  12. Re:So on Mainstream Media To Start "Crowdsourcing" · · Score: 1

    Go back and actually read the article. Look up some more about Gannett. Gannett is not screwing over any of their writers. They are not getting rid of any newspapers over this, they are not making the laymen perform journalist jobs to take away from their existing employees or news coverage; they are enhancing their product and tailoring it to those who 1) want to get involved and 2) prefer more local, in depth and factual, news coverage. Many media companys will try to duplicate this, watch and see.

    Nick,

    Good job, motivation is a big one, you appear to be motivated. Thats 15% for a good start. A lot of the people I work with are not motivated to learn, don't get complacent. Everyone in the forum has already waxed poetic about school and what do do over the next 5 years.

    Next week, go to the local community college or closest university and bang on doors and beg.

    Good luck.

    Post back telling us what you do.

    By far, and I dont work for EMC or VMware, ESX server and virtual center are Bad Ass. There is nothing greater than 0 to minimal hardware downtime. Finally getting the moneys worth out of the hardware. Being able to place a box in "undoable mode" rocks! (think "oops that patch just hosed my sql cluster" "ok, i'm fine again"). Being able to deploy the same server via image and deploy one in 30 min. Adding disks on the fly and growing disks with 5 or less min of downtime. Facts: 1. ESX Servers are mammals. 2. ESX Servers fight ALL the time. 3. The purpose of the ESX server is to flip out and kill people. I once saw an ESX server flip out when a physical server dropped a flopy disk, and the ESX server killed the whole data center! (insert tounge in cheek) Not to mention the countless Beowulf clusters, countless.
