  1. Re:"Free" wifi hotsputs, huh on Time Warner Customers Get Free Wi-Fi Hotspots · · Score: 0

    Actually, you can set it up one of two ways. If you are an Alien, you pay for the access, and the person hosting the AP with their broadband connection gets a bit of the money. If you are a Linus, you give away the access to other Linus' and get free wi-fi anywhere there is a FON AP...including your neighbors, etc.

  2. Re:Bad timing... K8 is getting old... on AMD Reports $611 Million Loss · · Score: 0

    I just purchased an AMD x64 X2 5600+ and I can't imagine a better, faster processor! Maybe Intel is faster, but I hardly see that being true. I AM an AMD Fan, have been since about 1995 or so, never have owned an Intel, I have and still do use one at work, but my home workstation beats hell out of my work machines.

  3. OMG...PRONIES! on SCO Chairman Fights to Ban Open Wireless Networks · · Score: 0

    This guy is just trying to become relevant again. If no one in the real world will listen to him, maybe people in Utah will listen. I doubt it, but the Mormon community is all about dashing out pr0n, so maybe it is them he is pandering to...what a douche bag!

  4. M$ Video over IP platform on Why are Websites Still Forcing People to Use IE? · · Score: 1, Insightful

    That is why. Lucent is using the same platform for delivering TV over IP, and they are forced to use Windows Vista in their set top boxes for the same reason.

  5. Vote for Change... on Democrats Appoint RIAA Shill For Convention · · Score: 0

    Vote for Obama. He would not take kindly to the "SHILL" taking his daughters to task over downloading movies and music...or maybe he would just laugh and mushroom stamp them all.

    You know what is funny?!?!? This is the first fucking score on a comment I have made in at least 6 goddamn months! The only time you bother to score my comments is when I make on you feel is out of order, fuck you!!!

    DOOP! Jesus editors, I give you a story about how MIT is providing their entire course catalog online for free, and you post this freaking story 2 times. BTW, my story still shows "Pending" and was provided on March 14th!

    Yeah, that would explain why IBM does it on Big Iron...No one with a Main Frame is doing any kind of serious work.

    That letter was fucking awesome! I love a good fight, but that was just a plain freaking knockout.

  15. Yes.... on Billion Dollar Handout To Upgrade TVs · · Score: 0

    It is just another example of the Government putting the cart before the horse. Just like the time change asshatedness, they legislate something, for example, HDTV for everyone by 2009, and then sit back and say "WOOHOO, Look at us, ain't we GREAT?" and then suddenly, they have to come up with BILLIONS of dollars to make it work, but of course, they did not think of that while legislating our lives for us.

    You, Sir, are my muthafucking HERO!!! I don't think I have heard it said with such conviction and candor, EVER! I have been preaching this same thing since 2001. I am NOT a hater, or racist, or anything else, I just was a unemployed IT for 3 years.

  22. Re:don't get exited: it's just about money, not te on AMD A Ripe Target For Buyout? · · Score: 0

    Also notice that the Zune uses the Freescale iMX31L processor. M$ Uses which ever technology is best for the given situation, they have been known to cut off their nose to spite their face, but have gotten better about it lately. I don't think IBM buying AMD would cause M$ to quit supporting the processors. MAC started using Intel, and winderz still can be loaded on that platform.

First of all, that does not an IT person make, and second of all, I will begin to worry when they can tell me how to optimize an MSSQL database, or how to tweak settings on an IBM Regatta to optimize processor usage with Lotus Notes, or... I suppose you get it. People seem to think if you know how to reboot a machine, or set your own proxy settings in your web browser, that you are an Instant IT person... Get a fucking life! I have spent the better part of 18 fucking years learning and teaching what I know. If there is a user who can do my job, come get the muther fucker!!!
