Earlier in a blog I titled "uggg.." I basically had a tirade about 10 things users say that piss me off - Well I have 10 more :)
1. My wireless isnt working!
2. My Database doesn't work...
3. My Database still doesn't work!
4. I need flash, I mean Adobe Acrobat installed.
5. Im such a chicken shit that I have to go to management because you arent doing things as fast as I want you too but your in the middle of another project!
6. Why does my browser crash when I try to build a site?
7. My internet is slow..
8. Why do you seem so angry all the time?
9. My user name isnt my name and my back ground isnt what I want it.
10. heres one from me to you guys, " Why dont you fucks add me to your google and google me questions vs walking up to me and asking me? I mean I like talking with you but when 90% of you people are sick - Why would I want to maximize my exposure to you?"
1. OMG... This problem existed before I showed up! You guys dealt with it before what the fuck is stopping you from doing it again! Look you lame fucking , worthless fucks just hit the resolve button in the wireless interface and quit wasting my time with simple windows problems that dont involve administrative priviledges. If you cant figure out how to do that after watching me do it for you 10 fucking times, and the guy here before me who must have done it atleast 100 fucking times... promptly find the closest window with a two story drop and jump out of it, we dont need your Gene's in the Gene pool any longer! If you survive, maybe with the time off you can learn how to click your fucking mouse two times and fix your own problems.
2. OK FROM( Future Retard Of aMerica!) initiate! Click "Clear my private data, check all the boxes, and hit OK" How fucking hard is that? I've seen def-mute monkeys do it with out a problem... please dont tell me they have more brain power then you - why do I have to come over and do this for you ( for the 100th time ), and you know what really pisses me off ( See the sour look on my face its not exactly the look on my face when Im happy with some one!). MY absolute favorite moment is when you say you did it ( congrats retard, you've progressed to to 1st grade), and then say "It still doesnt work!", and then I do it and it magically works! Please take the suggestion from above and preferably find a larger building!
3. Talk to the Terrorist in the Cave - Im not the demi-god of the database neither do I have that pointy of a nose! Im just a SysAdmin! So go fuck yourself, and pay attention so next time I dont have to waste precious oxygen to answer your question because just asking you doubled the oxygen wasted. Lets face it there is such a thing as stupid questions, and you found it! ( Congrats now prompty find a building to play hop-scotch off of ;) )
4. WTF?! Why do you need acrobat?! Wtf are you doing your taxes at work for! We are paying you to do stuff you should do on your own time at work? Why dont you clear some time out of your "Busy schedule" ie quit smoking pot for an hour and get online and do them before the date they are due you lazy fuck. OMG if I had a dollar for everytime I installed something on your machine that "You" Might need.. Id be fucking rich because all you fucks exploit the system - I cant wait until I get the chance to black list everything except for customers sites and tools.
5. Please go play hide and go fuck yourself! For you my friend, the one who brings me the heat i will bring you more, expect to hear NO, alot - I will make sure that for as much as I suffer you will to :) Play games with me and I will play back.. Fuck you! Slow torture is the best I promise you worthless fuck! Ill smile while I do it too!
6. You will have to talk to management about your shitty machine - I've tried my best its not my fault your trying to put an elephant through a pin hole. Consider this.. Does it turn on? Does it turn off? Can you email some one? BE FUCKING HAPPY THERES PEOPLE IN RETIREMENT HOMES THAT CANT EVEN DO THAT YOU UNGREATFUL FUCK!
7. Quit fucking opening multiple browsers with fucking music players and video's. Do that on your own fucking time you pricks quit wasting our shared bandwidth, and If its speed you want tell the rest of the useless pricks around you to quit doing it.
8. Contemplate the last 17 items I have gone over and if you still cant figure it out.... I think its time we send you back to kindergarden and put you back in diapers. Stupid fucking waste of precious resources..
9. Fuck you! You are now users, and your background you can change yourself you lazy sales fuck! If you dont like it, go play hide and fuck yourself.. Quit wasting my clean air >.>
10. Come on people this one is common fucking sense show alittle compassion to me and maybe Ill actually be happy to drop something and do something for you but No, so fuck yourselves!

A few things I have "Qualm's" about
One of the biggest things I have a quam about is ... VPS/VDS vendors... ie Virtual Private Server Vendors.
So why do I have Qualms with you guys?
- Your Lazy ... Really does it take a week to get back to me about a ticket?
- You tend to blame people like Data Centers for problems... Grow up, We know your service is shitty if it takes 10 minutes to do yum install Psmisc.
- For you vendors that still support Debian 3.1... Please update your iso's and retire it we are on 5.0.1 ie Lenny folks! To all VPS Vendors who distribute Debian would you atleast give us the common courtesy of updating the box before the user logs in.
- For all you vendors that leave stock OpenSSL on debian 4 & 5 Boxes, and dont bother to warn your potential customers that there is an exploit that goes along with SSH to make it breakable... Please go find the nearest tall blunt object that preferably is large then 10 feet tall and feel free to jump at it so it impales you, you asshole fucks. Atleast throw out a notice that states you are as imcompetent as possible so we know our shit isnt protected.
- You never resolve support tickets -
Two tickets you fuckers seem to not to be able to resolve:
And will probably never will..
We have had a problem with partitions becoming RO ( Read Only) locked... esp on / - No Vps vendor to date has been able to resolve this problem.
We have a problem where scp wont send stuff it'll just die out... Best Response we get is to "reinstall ssh" - Fuck you, you chicken shit mother fuckers! If we do a real "Reinstall" that will nuke our connection and we'll have to wait a week on you fucks to get back to us - or we will have to dick around with hypervm and wipe the box. If you fuckers haven't changed the link or messed up the hypervm DB so the password is incorrect.
- You oversell your boxes... This comment goes directly to company's like Shinjiru and other headache vendors. Let me tell you what we really think of you vendors that oversell... Refund my money and ill go get 2 boxes for the price of your one shitty box. I mean FFS(For fuck Sakes) your telling me that you cant buy another box for the price you sell your shit for. Folks its bad when you have to wait for yum and apt to respond after 5 seconds @ Shinjiru in particular i've spent a whole afternoon "Fixing" yum because they fuck it up so royally. I mean should Wget take 10 minutes to pick up a 200K file. FUCK NO!
- You consistantly cry about bulk mail... Cry harder if i can justify my mail as legit quit crying to us with "Spam Complaints" or "Abuse" tickets. If one isnt spam the rest arent spam moron. This goes for VPSlink AKA Spry and a few others. Something I love to see " Your VPS was suspended due to due a suspicious amount of outbound mail traffic. " Cry harder, why don't you actually read the mail. So fucking what if we are using bandwidth! That's what were fucking paying for jerkholes!
- You are using too much bandwidth... Guess what fuckers and I re-iterate this, Im paying for xxxGB's of Bandwidth - I expect to get my money's worth, and fuck you ass hats who charge for bandwidth overages.
- Play fair... This points directly to people like ZZsevers and yes Peter im calling you out - Quit being a bitch, and charge fair prices for upgrades if you ask a client to upgrade there boxes. Im sure you even oversell considering all the "Wonderful" Issues we've had with you.
- Invoices... Wtf - Why the hell would you send a invoice out when some one has a subscription with your service already? What do you get? Double billing and 70% of you fucking VPS vendors out there never say a god damn word. The great people at Orion Hosting, mainly Henri Cook have been awesome with realizing double billing.
- Usage of WHMCS - Im sorry to hurt your feelings, but learn how to use the software for other things besides letting me see 200$ worth of credit on my account because you fucks cant do your accounting correctly. Why dont you put the link to your Hypervm and our user name and password informaiton in there.
- HyperVM:
-To those who use it: Quit fucking changing your private and public links every week. This is annoying as hell! Quit fucking not paying attention to tickets in the ticket area. List atleast 3 different builds of one OS - Shit why not develope a Standard amongst yourselves.
-To those of you who dont use it: FUCKING START USING IT! Fuck webmin, fuck Cpanel, hell even fuck directadmin - 9 times out of 10 a admin could give a shit less about this crap & you make use choose what we want.
- Cpanel:
Oh Cpanel how can I even start with you... Essentially i've seen people charge 5$ to almost 20$ for you and i've yet to see you worth a nickel. Quite possibly the most ugliest and redundant feature set. Let me tell you we actually had a script called "Cpanel Assassin" that would rid our boxes of your virus like ways. I mean who would write a piece of trash like that and expect to get more then a dollar a license. Fucking make that shit better or get the fuck out of the way christ it looks more like windows for linux then a control panel .. stupid fucking wanna be windows tards.
- Webmin:
Webmin, you are awesome for me to use on my home network, but honestly as a management enviroment you lack alot. Usermin isnt much better and with its limited feature set I dont find you mature enough. I'll be pretty respective about this because this just isnt there market to be playing in. Some stupid fucking twit in a forum probably mentioned how he would want webmin on a vps... forgetting he could install it himself - What a dim wit, and the vendors who followed that schmuck there even more stupider then him.
- DirectAdmin:
Hahaha you fuck offs it was easy to find your file, rename you and then de-activate you. What a piece of trash atleast give me a challenge of being atleast as virillant as Cpanel. Your UI is great, and pretty simple - Just make yourself a normal service, or a normal Daemon. Lets face it you are a free alternative that is decent stay that way, and quit trying to by a Cpanel copycat schmuck!
Please note that these observations only mark my opinion of the current VPS feild vs anything that my organization represents. So in english : What I say are my own opinions and they are probably not shared by my employers so dont pester them.

3 Decent Voip Sip Apps for linux
So we recently did a lot of research in regards to linux and its progression, unfortunately it just doesn't make the grade for call centers maybe only casual
Several if not all sip/voip clients were tested for linux, and the best were:
Sjphone, Zoiper"free", and Ekiga
Sjphone/Ubuntu:
Worked well on low ram ( 333 to 512) but audio would go out off and on, and getting pcm support out of some cards while using pulse audio with mic boost on you could only hear people faintly. Dead in our books if there is sound quality issues.
With 1gb nothing changed.
Sjphone/Opensuse 10:
Low Ram: Audio would crap out about every 6 hours or so.
High Ram: Good for a day or so, but still looses audio, the tops we saw audio was about 3 days.
With Kernel patches: Same as above even with the km kernel patches.
Sjphone/Fedora 10:
Low Ram: alot of the same above.
High RAM: Much better quality but fedora still looses sound at an unpredictable rate and generally during conversations so we had to drop it.
Zoiper/Ubuntu:
We first did our initial testing on crap hardware with an average of 333mb ram on the boxes, with ubuntu 8.10 installed.
Most or all boxes crashed/lost audio daily or several times a day.
Next we boosted the ram in those boxes to 1gb.
Most or all boxes lasted a day with out loosing audio - I would say about 1 to 3 days tops 6 to 8hours use a day. Audio death was the only issue at that point most fixes included restarting GDM/shutting down the machine, waiting 10 seconds and starting, because the audio problem would carry over on the reboot.
Zoiper/Opensuse10:
Low/High ram this died quick and was way too low, seems like Opensuse doesnt like when you switch out audio cards either. Kernel patches helped some but audio dies frequently, 2 days tops on audio.
Zoiper/Fedora 10:
This seemed to be the best as we saw some issues with zoiper acting funny but 2/4 boxes tested stayed up for a week or so. Was very impressed.
Ekiga/Ubuntu:
Pretty solid but wouldnt support multiline incoming calls is why we ditched it. Mutliline is on the way from what I hear. Stayed up for 3 days solid with out much issues, had to reboot due to audio lost.
Ekiga/Opensuse 10 :
Same as above.
Ekiga/Fedora 10:
Pretty solid would go accouple more days then the two above on most machines.
From what I can tell if you have atleast a gig of ram and want to use sip/voip Fedora/Zoiper seems pretty solid.
Obviously this is a quick and dirty but should give you an idea of what is capable. I assume the stability in PulseAudio differs per distro, and it appears that from worst to best: Ubuntu -> opensuse -> fedora

Kind of a angsty morning
So JT was out today sick, so I had to come in at 5:55 to open for 6am. Im not going to lie, between the voip and laying cables everywhere I feel like I live here. However I always have said that I like that feeling of I made it.. what can I say.. there is just that pride. So some adreps were suppose to be here already, and they are not. Work for me today consists of doing some online shopping for memory upgrades, video cards, and another Gigabit switch. I will probably "Pre-price" the setting up of the "floor" down stairs though I dont think were going to get anything less than 300$ to 400$ I will probably do the cost comparisons down the line.
Sad state of linux audio -_-
Well, If anything will make you feel like a failure its taking pride in something that is broken, and trying to get it to work.
Our little Voip experiment at work ie a Sip client on Ubuntu 8.10/Fedora 10.
Here's how I pretty much f'd up, big time.
So back in November we ok'd looking at voip, and by December we had our first tester box running - Absolutely fine, with the sip client sjphone.04 . A week later this became problematic. We started to move that group over (6 people) Ha, sjphone.04 has a horrible frame work, with even a worse way of managing sound. So we went sjphone.08 which went abit better, but still no cigar - it wouldnt work on alot of PC's. We talked with the guys that built our asterisk pbx, and they recommended an obscure program called zoiper. Zoiper seemed to just work. We installed it on our flag ship test machine, and spread it out amongst the group. Almost instantly we started having issues like Audio would stop mid calls, the UI would freeze. The Audio stopping ment we actually had to [shut down] the machines, wait 10 seconds, and then boot again and for the ui freezes/some audio drops we had to restart GDM. So after some experimenting, and some investigating I discovered this is not a "Unique" occurance, but honestly the state of Audio. The state of linux audio makes me kind of heart broken ... this one of my first really large projects - It taught me alot but it really indicates how functionality like Audio is in the trash. So to make a long story short we gave a few other Distro's a shot and Audio still crashes, some machines it takes weeks some it takes hours. I've probably done enough debugging and analysis on my own time to go crazy.

Our little Voip experiment at work ie a Sip client on Ubuntu 8.10/Fedora 10.

MySql - tut
linux~
1) Start after a fresh install:
#> mysql -u root
2) Set the password for first time:
From inside SQL:
mysql> set password for 'root'@'localhost' = password ('test')
From outside SQL:
#> mysqladmin -u root password test1
3) If password is set, to change password:
#> mysqladmin -u root -ptest1 password test2
4) See if mysql is running:
#> ps -ef | grep mysqld
5) Starting and Stopping mySQL:
Starting:
#> ./etc/init.d/mysql start
Stop:
#> ./usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -p shutdown
6) Adding a user to Mysql Db
mysql> use mysql;
mysql> insert into user (host, user, password, select_priv, insert_priv, update_priv) values ('localhost', 'guest', password('guest123'), 'Y', 'Y', 'Y');
mysql>flush privileges;
mysql> select host, user, password from user where user = 'guest';
7) creating a database call tutorials:
mysql> create database tutorials
8) view values in the table
SELECT * FROM table_name

1 Week Rinux ( Linux ) Challenge
So... you know, i do the windows and linux thing alot. Well offically ive put down windows crack addiction finally, and have VM'd it for school but thats it pretty much. Which you know this was coming once i go a serious unix/linux job, and as some of you may not know.. I DID! no more support coordination! I am a Linux Administrator now! Woot Woot!
So my wise idea was hell lets kick over to that Centos 5.0 update 2 install i have going on. *LOL* let me tell you, if you like ease of use, kids stick with Ubuntu... Centos is a night mare I've had to add repo's for almost everything i want to install. I have a botched version of VLC going on, botch version of almost everything, and if its not botched its bastardized to the max!
So heres my set up...
Centos5 - Vmwared out w/ Debian 4.0rc4/Ubuntu 8.04/Winxp SP3
Additional fun stuff:
So I thought I would add some essential links:
