I use keepass database that I store in a truecrypt volume which is then stored in dropbox which solves the first two items listed. With two separate 20+ char pass phrases the last issue is not one that I currently worry about.

This is not saying that this project isn't interesting, I've just found a solution that has solved these issues for me for the last several years.

I use tera term when on Windows, it requires an install but I like it more than others. The installer does include some other weird programs that I don't like, but if you only choose to install tera term itself it is good.

As someone who lives in Seattle and has used Amazon Fresh, I actually prefer to go to the grocery store for most things. Items like produce are almost always not the best of quality, even though they have a quality ranking system. I've found that it is not worth it to purchase produce.

There is also the lack of browsing on amazon. I am fine with that for almost all other items, but something about food makes me want to walk the aisles and find food that sounds good. I do love cooking, so I might be in the minority in that regard.

I would rather walk a third of a mile to a real grocery store. That is mainly because of the produce and meats which is the bulk of my purchases. The rest of the stuff, cleaning supplies and such, I order through prime and get them in 2 days. Otherwise I would have to pay a delivery fee or meet a minimum order amount for free delivery.

As someone who uses Amazon Fresh, there are still things you want to leave the house for such as produce. Fresh has different categories for freshness, but I've found it not to mean that the produce is going to be ready to eat anytime soon.

I've found myself using Fresh for basic things, which the vast majority are on amazon's normal site.

On my Android phone I use the doggcatcher app to download podcasts. I go well over 3gb each month, but as a Sprint customer I currently do not need to worry about the limits.

I could certainly set the app to only download on wifi and avoid the issue entirely. However, it is quite nice to have it check hourly for new podcasts and download them at that point no matter where I am.

It is a version of Firefox with the branding removed as that portion has a copyright by Mozilla. This project started in 2004-2005.

I actually thought the policy in the original post has always been Debian's policy.

DNS has nothing to do with ping response times. A ping requests the IP address from the DNS server and then does the ping. On most systems the DNS is cached locally, so multiple requests will use the same information.

There are also lots of libraries for powershell that make it very easy to do things. For example MS provides a great way to manage Exchange via powershell. You can even go so far as getting a GUI in powershell.

As a sysadmin I use powershell for quite a few automation and management tasks on Windows servers. It is nice to have a interface to the server that I know will always be on the server and will update by itself. There is no need to install a third party scripting language just to script simple things that are difficult to do in the standard windows command line.

A lot of sysadmins I've talked with love Aruba products. I've always thought their products cost too much money, but the wifi setups that I deal with max out at 20 concurrent users in a single location.

As someone who manages a few dozen android phones throughout my company I have yet to see any malware on any of the devices. If some phones were going to get infected the ones I manage are the ones.

The reports of malware on android phones are greatly exaggerated.

At this point I see both platforms at the same basic risk for getting infected. The possibility is there, but it is not nearly enough to worry about.

So, the ability to root an iOS device via an exploit doesn't count as malware? Interesting.

I would like to do something like this, but I am too paranoid to put this device on my network. Assuming that Google is sanitizing the data is just that, an assumption.

Signed up for the device, but doubt I will use it on my entire network. I will most likely test it with wireshark to see what its really sending.

XenServer is actually the product name from Citrix. Xen is the open source project that is Open Source.

I know its being a stickler for the tiny facts, but when you are a XenServer admin find the differences rather quickly.

Like a lot of sites there is the print button which includes the entire article.

More importantly the domain was bought today.

I just tried to play the office on high with my desktop system and it was unwatchable due to how choppy it is. On this same system I play 1080p content with mplayer without an issue.

When working for my former boss I uploaded a photo of him that I had permission from the photographer to do anything I wanted with it. I didn't check the exact right boxes when uploading the photo and it was removed. I tried again, no luck. After about 5 times of trying to put this photo I gave up. It was not worth my time to even bother adding this high quality photo to wikipedia.

My dad formally had massive eye issues and needed to have laser surgery multiple times to not go blind. He ended up having to replace his Corneas.

Anyway, he has stated many times that he would never tell anyone to go through the pain of laser eye surgery. This guy has been through a ton of painful stuff, but this was the topper for him.

On top of that I know someone who had Lasik and their vision got worse and their eyes wouldn't stop watering. I believe they went to some cheap place, but it ended up costing a ton of money to not be in pain any longer.
