I chose "I'm employed at a store, please don't yell at me", although I don't work at a retail store.

I run a coupon site for hosting and domain names, and Black Friday / Cyber Monday are very busy days for me. I'll be pretty much working those 2 days around the clock updating coupons and sales deals.

Last year I snuck out for a couple hours to Best Buy and got a great deal on a TV, but we don't need anything this year so I'll be doing my own shopping online.

I just picked up a THREE pack of the Orange cupcakes for 90 cents at the local Hostess outlet :)

If your application is designed for a legacy OS, it's not going to utilize more than 4GB of RAM. Next question please...

I think if government (ie: DHS in the US) really wants to secure SCADA without overhauling it, they should require and provide site-to-site VPN routers with Internet traffic blocked minus a few things. Just plug them into a modem or switch and 99% of the problem is taken care of. I think it would cost pennies compared to things like the backscatter scanners.

another recommendation for SMF here. I run it on two forums and highly prefer it over both VBulletin and Phorum.

I'm a sysadmin for a small municipal office with a SCADA system. I manage every computer except the one used for SCADA, which is the responsibility of the vendor. Their only concern is that the computer stays unmodified from their "standard" set up, but it still requires unrestricted Internet access. This means:

*Windows XP SP2
*Automatic Updates turned off
*No third-party software (ex: antivirus)
*No domain/group policy
*Symantec pcAnywhere 11 host (this is the version Symantec admited to being breached and to stop using)

As the sysadmin I can stick it on a VLAN to keep it away from the computers I'm responsible for, but other than that, my hands are tied.

Not mutiny, Wesley was intoxicated and goofing off. I don't recall Guinan being alone on the Enterprise, but Dr. Crusher was in Remember Me (seperate universe).

In Conundrum everyone loses their memory and assumes Worf is Captain. In Night Terrors and again in Gambit, Data becomes Acting Captain.

What episodes are you referring to? In the case of Wesley, I recall The Naked Now, but it was merely a self-proclamation. Of course, nearly every regular cast member was given command at one point or another.

I've watched a lot of different videos about the shuttles, and by far the most moving for me was one created last year by Nature to celebrate the completed shuttle program.

This site is all about uber-modern web standards and their chat protocol of choice? IRC. Awesome.

Not certain who is right and wrong, but this was my source:

I would take a screenshot or something but it's someone else's PC now. Perhaps you were using Ultimate or another vendor's installation? Microsoft's hardware requirements for 64-bit is 20GB. The only non-default thing I did was disable the 6GB hibernation file. I remember with Windows, Office, drivers, service packs, updates, a few other little things, and a disabled hibernation file, it was 20-something GB used.

Anyway, the point is that 128GB is plenty for most uses.

Every ThinkPad X1 Carbon has an anti-glare IPS display with a native resoltion of 1600x900. But you know, it's missing the Apple logo on the top cover.

This week I installed Windows 7 Pro, Office 2010 Pro Plus, and a slew of other business software on a 40GB SSD with room to spare. Amazing what you can do without porn.

As does NameSilo.com. They've got some of the lower prices I've seen. You can use coupon code BUCKOFF to save a dollar on your first order with them.

Internet.bs has low prices also and always free whois privacy. They don't generally do coupons though.
