Comment Oh Noes (Score 0) 521

Oh no, the local government is going to track you. Wake up, they've been doing it since the day you were born and given that little piece of paper called a Birth Certificate. Then you paid the state to track you even more when you got a Drivers License and you paid even more when you bought a car and had to buy a license plate. Heck, you post alone is probably being tracked now too. Watch you, they're coming for you next! Who care's, when you're driving down the road and a cop passes you, you might think for a second did he just try and track me? But 2 minutes later you won't even remember having that thought. Not to mention, if something did happen to your car IE: getting stolen. I would think you'd want as much help as possible as to where your car might be located OR even better, where it's heading! Now if the public had access to this data, sure I'd probably be upset then. But not over this...

Submission + - IPv6 Linux Routing

diemuzi writes: I'm having a very difficult time trying to learn and grasp the concept of the IPv6 networking and before my hair goes completely gray and starts falling out I would like to know if anyone has any good information on a simple how-to for dummies IPv6 Linux Routing guides. I've been reading books, many sites online, etc... but none of them click in my mind. IPv4 was easy compared to this IPv6 mess of things. I've never been one for reading and understanding but more for doing and understanding. My background choice of operating systems is Arch Linux but I'm familiar with CentOS and Redhat. What I believe would really help me out was for something I can see from the beginning to end and being able to copy/paste most of the things required into my linux box and start testing. Most of the examples found online talk about Tunneling, their ISP gave them an IPv6 address which can be subnetted, and many other random examples. All I want to do for learning purposes is to setup an IPv6 internal network which has nothing to do with the outside world. I don't care if it connects to the Internet. I simply want the Linux Router to handle the connections from my other Linux Workstations and Windows Workstations and assign those an IPv6 and be able to talk to one another.

Comment Logitech MX Revolution (Score 0) 569

I personally use a Logitech MX Revolution http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/mice_pointers/mice/devices/130&cl=US,EN I highly recommend the Hard plate mouse pad too made by RocketFish, I use the "Control" side of the pad. If it gets dirty, you can simply wash it off. http://www.rocketfishproducts.com/pc-67-3-rocketfish-gaming-mouse-pad-black.aspx The mouse doesn't require batteries, has a recharge stand and the battery life is wonderful. I can go at least 1-2 weeks at 8 hours of coding each without having to worry about putting it on the charger. If I do have to charge it, no more than 15-20 minutes for a full charge and I'm ready again. I haven't had any issues with any operating system either, no scuffing issues, etc...

I would really like to see the comments based on call centers for the Internet industry. When most people think about Call Centers they thing of the PC world, but what about those who do Web Hosting or Domain Registrations. It's a completely different type of assistance and most things can be resolved in a matter of minutes. Therefore leaving the customer with a much higher sense of satisfaction. ~ Sammie http://ecommerce.com/
