Sharepoint WTF?

by @ Friday, October 27th, 2006. Filed under tech

I was pinged on a question today about Sharepoint, an app I have never had to deal with. Well the question was how to easily resync Sharepoint after a user object changes… for instance, email, displayname, domain, or userid… I was like what? Why would it need to do that if it is all in […]

Vista RC2 – Not too shabby

by @ Friday, October 27th, 2006. Filed under general

I was playing with Vista RC2 on a new desktop machine the last couple of days, I have to say, not too shabby. The number of UAC messages really decreased to something far less annoying and even when they did pop it seemed somehow less annoying. Much more “perfomant” than the last rev I loaded […]

Following in the footsteps of Harry Potter, it was revealed that the world’s first invisibility cloak has been tested in America. So far the device is rather limited — […]

Oh shit, look what I’ve done…

Those are the words you utter when you drop your drink or maybe when you spill some chocolate cake on your white shirt… Steve Wynn uttered those words upon realizing he stuck his elbow through a $139 million painting… He bought the picture in 1997 from another collector for $48.4 million. Priceless, in fact, is not […]

Consistent with this policy, the United States will: preserve its rights, capabilities, and freedom of action in space; dissuade or deter others from either impeding those rights or developing capabilities intended to do […]

All your base are belong to us

by @ Wednesday, October 18th, 2006. Filed under tech

IE7 is coming… Microsoft is releasing IE7 this month and when it does it will be forcing it down as a high priority update to help get people secured. IE7 is not your momma’s IE… It has changed significantly, different look, different feel. You may be an IE “expert” now, you likely won’t after the […]

Getting an error in AdMod?

by @ Tuesday, October 17th, 2006. Filed under general

I just wanted to put a short blog post out there about AdMod. If you are getting an error using AdMod to make a change and you don’t know what is going on, don’t forget about the VERY USEFUL switch, -exterr. That switch is specifically there to help you find issues. So if you get […]
