Comment Composers here. (Score 1) 722

I name them after musical composers. Usually I start off with short names: Bach, Strauss, Mozart, Chopin before moving onto the longer names. This is usually for my own servers / private networks. If the machines are public facing, they usually follow a naming convention depending on the place (server number + role of the server + physical location usually is it).

Comment Re:Why upgrade? (Score 1) 266

Been on LTS releases since 6.06 for my work desktops. Run Debian on my test/server boxes though. I try out the non-LTS releases on my laptop but not too often. Even then with LTS, I have to use PPA repos since Ubuntu repos take forever to update :\

Comment Re:Deal still subject to regulatory approval (Score 3, Informative) 748

I am in the same boat as you are. I was an AT&T customer for 6.5 years and then switched to Tmobile after a huge F'up by AT&T (should've taken them to the courts). If this deal goes through, I am going to Verizon. No way in hell will I ever be an AT&T customer.

TLDR version: Fuck AT&T

Comment Re:Bills to Pay (Score 1) 742

Totally agree regarding SGU. I liked the show to begin with (watched it last month) and initially I felt sad but as season one progressed, I was getting sick of the bickering. It wasn't a dark show, it was just childish bickering. Then I checked the ratings and it made total sense. Bad shows need to be canned. Period.

Comment Re:how I did it (Score 1) 250

Pretty close to what I did. ( (300*300 + 50*300 + 7*300) ) - ( (300*11) + (50*11) + (7*11) ) This was reduced to (300*3+50*3+7*3)*100 - (3927) It's not hard at all but I learned mathematics in India.

Comment You need directions? (Score -1, Troll) 650

So people who want to goto the Lincoln memorial cannot do so without Google maps? That's like saying

1. I live in Seattle and I need directions to the Pike Place market
2. I live in Orlando and I need directions to the Disney World Resort
3. I live in Arizona and I need directions to the Grand Canyon

now the best part
4. I live in Vegas and I need directions to the strip.

Follow the bloody directions on the road or...bear with me here....use a fucking GPS. Granted, what Google did here is silly and appears juvenile (if they did anything that is), but Glenn Beck and his fans can go fuck themselves.
