  2. Re:Pffff, whatever. on Tapeheads and the Quiet Return of VHS · · Score: 1

    Add some peyote and you've got one hell of a rave on your hands.

    Vinyl masters were not compressed the way recordings are these days. Dynamic range doesn't mean squat if the master is compressed to hell.

  4. Re:Sure it can on Nokia: the Sun Can't Charge Your Phone · · Score: 1

    I use the JuiceBar when charger when camping/biking. It's a great little unit that uses solar power to charge an internal battery, which will then charge your devices whilst you sleep. The challenge is keeping it exposed to the sun but secure whilst you're out on the trails.

    Gene is amazing at marketing.

    Gotta love him.

    No. No you don't.

    No, worries mate. I'll fill you in early - it's a kangaroo powered beer and sausage machine. Still workin' on the wombat powered sauce dispenser though. Little bugger keeps drinkin' the sauce and keelin' over.

    38% Unix market share and growing. Just dropped some dollars on Power7 HW running AIX a few months ago.

    Hmm, I tried that, but the cask split and red wine went everywhere :(

    And welcome to Somalia.

  14. Re:NAS on Consumer Tech: an IT Nightmare · · Score: 1

    Consumer NAS doesn't suck, connecting a consumer NAS to a corporate network does suck. I consume a consumer NAS at home and it's simply wonderful! The antithesis of suck! Unless of course it's an attractive opposite doing the sucking...

  15. Re:That's not true... on Consumer Tech: an IT Nightmare · · Score: 1

    You've got me curious. It sounds like a lot of work to replace the consumer device operating system with "open source". Care to elaborate as to which open source software you're using? I've suffered absolute zero pain bringing in both iOS and Android devices into a corporate environment using ActiveSync and Zimbra on Linux (Zimbra paid version).

  16. Re:Standardize Equipment, and thus, Expectations on Consumer Tech: an IT Nightmare · · Score: 1

    Sounds like a case for iOS or Android "toys", using ActiveSync against Exchange (Windows) or Zimbra (Linux). Cancel that insomnia.

  17. Re:Yeah, count me in on Consumer Tech: an IT Nightmare · · Score: 1

    Could your colleague have been using EMR on iPad through RDP perhaps? I've fulfilled requests for Windows based industry specific applications on iPad using Wyse Pro to connect to Windows Server. Even works remotely through IPSEC. If you don't run the application from Windows Server, perhaps you could use a VNC client to connect to your desktop PC.

  18. Re:Can't say i'm suprised on Consumer Tech: an IT Nightmare · · Score: 1

    You have to expose parts of your Exchange infrastructure to the Internet as well

    Try IPSEC.

  19. Re: on 'Free' Games Dominate Top-Grossing Game List On App Store · · Score: 2

    Bullshit. A screwed over, destroyed customer is not a return customer. Despite any policies on hardware lockdown or software distribution, none of the companies you mention have any interest in screwing or destroying their customers. Fuck, AC, why do I even bother?

    Check out his history, it pretty much confirms Radres' claim.

  22. Re:Whats next, patent to use your hands on Apple Granted Patent For Slide To Unlock · · Score: 0

    I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species and I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed and the only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You're a plague and we are the cure.
