Actually I found out that 30boxes can import RSS feeds - since I'm at work can't try it yet - but I'm going to attempt tonight to sync from 30boxes to outllok and then full sync from outlook to google calender.

Not pretty but functional - will update if it works

Re: Why Mitt Romney is Bad if We Want to Return to Reagan’s Ideals | Creeva's World 2.0

As someone that is completely disenfranchised with the system - and the republican party not standing true to it's original ideals - yes I would rather vote for whatever democrat is available.

Not like it truly matters since my main concern with voting for any president is the electoral college - since I personally want the electoral college removed like many Americans - or have the electoral votes legally required to split as per the vote percentages the state actually receives - according to Ron Paul that makes me anti american - but I forgive the guy.

Also - why would you consider I'm left leaning - the only things I'm left leaning on is abortion since i believe in pro-choice and more stringent gun control - at least make all gun owners become members of well regulated militias as per the letter of the law.

I believe in small limited government

I believe in freedom of speech and expression and privacy - things the PATRIOT act severely limits.

If it wasn't for Bush and the actions he did in office I might not have paid attention this time around and just supported the republican candidate -the new canidates Mitt included want to keep mostly the status quo.

But I didn't write the piece per say to support Ron Paul - but more to promote what I find wrong with these Monarchy families.

I would call it more of aspiring - but back in the day - who am I kidding I was still aspiring - but I still enjoy it.

My main instrument was always trumpet - but I can also play T.C. Baritone, French Horn, and I dabbled in Tenor Saxophone.

Since high school I've done some dabbling in bass guitar - if you were to hear me play you would realize it is very light dabbling.

That's fine I ran across it and felt a need to just comment on it. It's nothing personal in the fact of what I pointed out.

If anything if you were to revisit and take this paper to the next step in the future just giving you or anyone else following in this direction another point of view on the subject.

Though I still believe in the MD5 hash personally since this could give a degree of larger authenticity on machine readers that would not have a picture display to compare the person to a photo on file.

@lomara Yeah crossposting was a big deal to me also I spent some time researching when the livejournal crossposting stopped happening.

Re: The Kiosk Series – Part Three – Microsoft SteadyState vs Group Policies

I still have to do 3 more parts on this series - might get another part done this weekend. That being said, at work we talked to MS on a conference call and we are partially implementing one of their solutions which is a mixture of GPO stuff, and steadystate (at least on the drawing board for right now).

To automatically login in a user there is a registry entry that you can put in the user name and passwords and that will cache it for you and auto login. The problem with using steadystate with user accounts and auto login is that user accounts must be local and not domain accounts, and the session timer makes absolutely no sense with auto login.

Don't worry few people ever do come and read this. Normally I'm just writing to myself. Maybe that's why I never make any money doing this.

Re: Palantir Technologies -The Intelligence Community’s New Analysis Platform

creeva — Mon, 19 May 2008 09:38:05 -0000

From the presentation I went to they used database download dumps of the wikipedia. From what I can gather (I haven't looked at the dumps that wikipedia offers myself) it includes edits, who edits them, where they are edited from, site content, and links between content types. I highly doubt all the log information about searches and who searched what is located in the databases since I would assume the logs are epically bigger then the wikipedia database itself.

As for who gets to see the data. That may be a trickier question. They showed us some data set examples when I went to this webinar, but I would assume private government audiences get more of a true peek on how the inner workings go. So the government would have access to any type of data correlation that palantir can perform.

Also they could use the netflix database, some search engines offer up their databases for research purposes, all of these things can be gathered and inputted into software such as palantir. The safest solution if you are worried about anyone tracking what you do online is to not go online. Otherwise someone will always be logging where you go and what you do, whether they look at the logs is another question, but software such as Palantir's make sifting that data trivial.
