  2. Re:I Can Smell-- er, See It on Apple Voiding Smokers' Warranties? · · Score: 1

    i can vouch for this on the pot smoking, i worked on my friends computer is a regular pot smoker. i think it has more to do with him being paranoid and have zero ventilation in the room than just the pot smoking. his computer is encrusted with "dust fur" i guess?

  3. Re:Two Thumbs UP! on Apple Voiding Smokers' Warranties? · · Score: 1

    lol, i worked at a law school, spoiled non-fireable teachers with tenure! they smoke and drank up a storm. never updated their computers though, and only really requested tech support if the systems were completely dead. one guys computer was pretty sticky, but he smoked a ton of cigars....

  4. Bacula? on Synchronize Data Between Linux, OS X, and Windows? · · Score: 1

    Set up the linux as a bacula server and put clients on the other systems, maybe a bit overdoing it, but youll have a database of sync data as well!

    not to ruin the fun, but it apparently means "London slang for costumer, may also be used for "johns" (among prostitutes and police agents), people who watch porn movies or go to strip joints regularly."

  7. Re:Can't Lock Linux Down on IBM's Answer To Windows 7 Is Ubuntu Linux · · Score: 1

    I've found ill-trained admins tend to lock things down unnecessarily. Usually the end results of getting them "on the cheap". Looks good on a stupid management.

    ... or at least have the option of being miserable. kind of like if gay people weren't able to drink mountain dew. some may actually like it, some may consider it essential, but the sane ones will choose the crab juice.

  12. Re:Hauppauge HD PVR on An End To Unencrypted Digital Cable TV and the HTPC · · Score: 1

    Ah, this isn't a card, and uses a different technology than most cards do. Anyway, people use this device to record encrypted QAM.

  13. Hauppauge HD PVR on An End To Unencrypted Digital Cable TV and the HTPC · · Score: 1

    This device doesn't need decryption, it exploits the analogue hole to record to your computer - Hauppauge HD PVR High Definition Personal Video Recorder 1212. I imagine more devices will be doing this in the long run.

  18. Re:Asking about hours on What Questions Should a Prospective Employee Ask? · · Score: 1

    I am a geek, but one that likes girls, and I have found that there is a definite relation between jobs and dating women. They can both be psycho, and and they can both be loving.

  21. Back in my MS days.... on Best Tools For Network Inventory Management? · · Score: 0

    We used MS Access and some scanners. I was in the TSG (Trade Show Group) division, and we had a lot of morons there. We processed hundreds of systems a day, and it seemed to work decent for that environment.
