9/25    I need to extend an ethernet to about 200m between buildings.
        Any recommendations? how about: http://www.dceexpress.com/2158.htm
        \_ SX fiber (multimode) --dim
           \_ What's the cost, and where to buy? any specific models?
              Forgot to say, it's for a church, so low cost is needed,
              and each remote building only has a couple computers in it.
              can 802.11b really go 300m at < 5Mbps. 1Mbps would be fine.
              just need something better than dial-up.
              \_ your best bet is to get directional antenna kits from
                 someplace like this... in my opinion, worth the money.
                 http://www.hdcom.com/2.4ghzantennas.html
              \_ If it's line of sight you can get some cheap antennas to
                 focus the signal.  Google for "cantenna"... but don't
                 actually use a pringle's can, get something that'll last.
        \_ It's for a church?  Fuck religion!  Death to you and your vast right
           wing christian conspiracy!
           \_ Give'em a break.  They just wanna set up live cams between
              buildings for their boy-loving fiesta.

4/02    We use Perforce at work for revision control. It seems to work okay.
        Lately, a lot of the newer developers are saying that Perforce
        sucks and we should switch to Mercurial or Git. I have done some
        searching on the Internet and some others have this opinion. Added
        advantage is that Mercurial and Git are free. However, there would
        be some work to switch for the sysadmins and the developers.

4/26    I see that soda has an ipv6 address but ipv6 traffic from this box
        doesn't actually work (ping6 <DEAD>ipv6.google.com<DEAD>, ping6 http://www.v6.facebook.com
        Is this expected to work?
        \_ Soda doesn't have a real IPv6 address.  The IPv6 addresses you see
           in ifconfig are just link-local addresses; any IPv6-capable machine
           will autogenerate these, whether or not it's connected to an IPv6
