I double dog dare you to step into multiple manufacturing environments. Hey, guess what, Manufacturing does still exist in America, and *shock* we actually make enough money to stay in business. Stop looking at that @$#%#%# thing in your hand and step out into the real world. Come talk to those of us that actually have to support things like a building that has such large voltage drops that the battery backups are nonstop frying up....or making a Dos 6.22 machine try to just find that Windows Server 2008 share to pull it's programs.....

We are trying something as simple (and fun to design) as making the shop floor paperless. NOT AS EASY AS ONE WOULD THINK...when you actually break down where the paper is really at. You can't just take the paper away and shove a tablet in their hands....these guys work in 115 degree heat sometimes, with a layer of metal dust caking their fingers. Some of these guys have been in the business 40 years....and their eyesight isn't exactly capable of reading the dimensions on that drawing of a part that is 7 ft tall, and 5 ft wide on a device that is 5-10" in size.

Heck, I can't even get a mobile device that doesn't require Internet to function. Look at the Google Apps. Just using a Nexus to try to take a picture of that Aerospace part is already, out of the gate a huge no-no. Why? ITAR regulations. The App Dev is in the UK. You are taking a picture of a part that is required by ITAR regulations to not be accessible to persons outside the US. Just by buying that app from the Google Store made you give permission for that App to have access to the camera....which is the Devs....that are located outside the US. Any Google Apps and Devices are already eliminated out of the gate for our use.

The problem is with IT nowadays is that everyone is looking for a niche product to get rich quick off of, and not trying to really solve problems.

I thought teens were anyone under 30.....

Talk to any of the current players in WoW and a majority of them will tell you that going from Wrath to Cataclysm was a huge let down in the storytelling. Wrath was about this big, bad Lich King, and every one working together to take him down. The storytelling was amazing, the questing kept the story moving for the whole expansion, up until the very end when the Lich King died.

Veteran of the Wrathgate cinematic was (still is, on my alts), goosebump inducing. The Battle for Undercity (the follow up quest that is now gone)...Amazing.

(What killed Wrath is how long it took for new content...but that's a discussion for another time.)

Cataclysm was about a dragon randomly torching zones. Comical, because of the random, but it just wasn't a good enough story. The only story line in Cataclysm that was any fun was Thrall's story, and it was more of a side story to try to salvage the expansion. Even killing the bad dragon at the end was not the least bit epic because you didn't even get to see the whole body of the dragon. Just his back and claws. Meh.

"Expecting the call centre operator to think back to some "social engineering" training..."

If the training for Social Engineering stopped at the call centre, then the training plan is flawed to begin with. Everyone in IT better already be familiar with Social Engineering tactics and better know how to recognize them without thinking twice. That is just part of the job. If it's not where you work, then it should be. We require people that work in our IT Dept to know how to spot most Social Engineering attempts, and have read at least one Kevin Mitnick book. We work in Aerospace manufacturing, so we have to keep a closer eye on WHO has access to what.

The hard core, effective training at that point should be at the receptionist, the person that is answering the phone when the user presses 0 on their phone, and the people allowed to open the door for someone on the outside. That is the very first line of defense for Social Engineering attempts.

Kids these days....Get off my lawn.....

Thank you. I have been reading reactions across all different sites, and it seems that every single person cheering totally bypassed reading and comprehending this part.

If I had points to give, I would.

Read closely people. It doesn't say what you think it says....

Indeed. I have several friends that live in Vegas. People that live there are terribly angry. All this study did was point out the happiest vacation spots.

We have been testing Libre this week. The first thing that happened was a doc that had several numbered, stairstepped bullet points 1.1.1, 1.1.2, 2.1.1, 2.1.2, 2.2.1, etc turned into 1,2,3,4,5,6 etc.

Made it really difficult to approve the changes since the indication of where 4.1.1 was changed didn't exist in Libre except as 12.

Back to the drawing board, and pray Office 2003 doesn't get broken by some magical Windows Update.

Or...easier than....my brain is fried today...

Why would you not base it on inside/outside temperature? Seems to me that is easiest than remote control....

I'll take one for the team....over here *sly wink**hip flip*

I guess I should RTFA, but how does Chantix target only the smoking addiction? How can Chantix be modified slightly to target other addictions? Seems to be way safer than scraping a brain.

Well Done, Sir. Well Done

That's all that needed to be said.....

I think he's in my WoW guild now...

That wasn't until the end. BWD/Throne/BoT, then Firelands was painful for the less elite crowd (the people between the hard core and casual). The only thing I don't like about MoP is having to have the rep to get gear. I could understand that if they had tied the Tier pieces to rep, but if I valor cap, I don't understand why I can't get a less desired piece that will at least allow me to kill those stupid vermin and birds on my farm in a timely manner. (there are WAAAY too many things to kill when planting seeds.). My other gripe is more that I'm forced to remain on my main to be viable in raid when all I really want to do is finish leveling my other 10 alts so I can farm on them too....it shouldn't take 2 toons 1 hour to do quests for the farm, plus Golden Lotus, plus the other reps for the professions, plus....plus...plus....it's not the least bit alt friendly, which was what MY complaint had been all along during Firelands. (It's better than it was.....). Well, I'm not sure what I'm even trying to say anymore....except to point out that Cata wasn't flowing purples until Dragon Soul.
