Intense Game!
Get it, NOW!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=acD6s4E3xso
Be forewarned, to play this game at a decent level you have to be fairly spec'd out.
Mine: Dual Core Xeon 1.86GHZ, 2GB Memory, EVGA 9600GT
If your card can support Nvidia Physx then you should be good to go.
Or... if you have a PS3 or XBOX 360 you can play it on there as well, multi-platform...
At any rate. This game get's a BIG thumbs up.

General / Opinion's about Virginia
« on: January 12, 2009, 09:50:39 AM »
I may be looking at a change of venue in regards to my current employment.
The thing is the job is located in Richmond, VA
Anybody ever lived there, or close, or in Virginia, and if so, what is your general opinion of the area?
Any insight would be appreciated.

General / IBM AS/400 Glory
« on: December 14, 2008, 06:14:25 PM »
For those of you who don't know. An IBM AS400 is a midrange mainframe. Basically a big ass server.
Here's the situation.
I have an older IBM AS400 at one of my hospitals. It's on it's very last lag. It's terribly slow and for the last year I have lost quite a bit of sleep over it crashing.
I finally found myself in an advantageous situation where I could replace the damn thing with a brand new iSeries (new version of the as400).
Shitty thing is, to migrate to the new server I have had to take the old one down for quite a while.
Tonight the mission was to do a full system save, roughly a million or so objects. Close to a terabytes worth of data.
On any other full system save I would use SLR60 Tapes to backup the data because that is what is inherently installed in the mainframe. Since I am migrating to a new server I have had to rent a new external tape drive that wills support the same media as the new server.
Suffice it to say, installing anything new on a mainframe as old as this one (going on eight years), is not the easiest task in the world.
For one, it barely supports the interface (propriety IBM PCI variant), and to beat it all when I go to use it, the damn thing fucks up.
I planned for a full system save time of around seven hours.
That seven hours has now turned into nine and I forsee it going to twelve hours.
Downtime on an Information System that is relied upon to control EVERYTHING in an environment is basically unacceptable and causes alot of hardship on the employees of that environment. So, for the time being everybody hates my ass. Just one of the perks of IT world.
Anyway, i've posted some pictures below so you can revel in my struggles.
AS400 Mainframe Cracked open for the first time since being manufactured.
Brand new Tape Drive I had to crack open.
Tape feed assembly of the drive I had to fix.
The Horror! Gut's everywhere!
After Five Hours, Hazaa! Writing to the drive!
Edit:
It was indeed a twelve hour ordeal. All systems operational after Full System Save. Ready for Migration.

Anybody got any costumes this year?
Last year mine was Anakin Skywalker.
This year it's Commissioner James Gordon from the Dark Knight.
I'll post the actual costume tomorrow.
Edit: Me with one of Gotham City's Officers
Me with a hot nurse.
Yes, the stash is real. Grew it out for the occasion.

We all know these ridiculous videos that have no point but still yet get a massive amount of hits.
i.e. The Badger Video, Chris Crocker, Dancing Babies, e.t.c
I found a video posted on youtube yesterday that may very well be the next internet phenomenon. Keep watching and watch the hits skyrocket!
