Comment Be a Professional (Score 0) 246

I manage a computer repair shop. I teach my guys that discretion is paramount. First of all I'd they snoop on customer files they get fired. Second if the do see something they aren't to discuss it. Finally if they stumble on something criminal (like kiddy porn) they report it to me and I deal with it. In the case of the aforementioned I'll call the cops. But I make the decision and the responsibility.

Comment Chrome new goto (Score 0) 362

I manage a local computer repair shop, until recently we installed Firefox by default with operating system reinstall 's. Now we have moved to recommending chrome mainly be many of our user are having issues with sites like pogo working on Firefox. I think this is a nail in a fast closing coffin for Mozilla, users want things to just work and Firefox no longer does. But chrome never seems to fail.

Ubiquity http://www.ubnt.com/ has a device called a nano station it is perfect for your needs it can share the connection using wireless over distances up to 5 miles. but the range can be limited in the device via power management. they run DD-wrt and can be configured as access point or point to point connections. I have used them for years as a network solutions provider.

Comment Is Microsoft becomming the Anti-Apple? (Score 0) 248

absolutely amazing! while windows XP was and is usable, Vista was a disaster on launch, and 7 an immediate favorite, their mobile platforms have always struggled. mobile 5 was utilitarian like XP and 6 was a failure on par with Vista is 7 as good as 7? While apple struggles to prevent us from running the aps we want on devices we OWN! windows is working with the hacker to provide the content people want and solve the security flaws that allow the unlocking. can we say brilliant on the part of MS (formerly the evil overlord)

Comment I don't think it will ever happen (Score -1, Offtopic) 606

there is no need is is a stupid Idea. the level of skill needed to fly around will never be as obtainable as a driving license. Besides we need to start looking locally to ensure the survivability of our species. think about it the majority of our food products travel between 200 and 2000 miles to reach our table. we need to stop growing mass produced genetically engineered corn that can't be digested and start growing the foods we can actually consume. Most field corn has to be digested by machines and processed in to food additives in order to consume it. mass agriculture also requires large amounts of petroleum based fertilizers killing the earths ability to naturally support the growth of real crops. Mark my works mass corporate farming is going to lead the starvation and economic disaster with in 15 years if we don't start fixing it now.
