Spiderman, StarCraft and Assholes

I went to Brisbane today to see Spiderman 3 and do some shopping, to the expanded Chermside Westfield, it's huge! Spiderman 3 was a great movie, perhaps a little bit on the drawn out side, but still great viewing. The start and end of Spiderman 3 were great but the lovey dovey and emo stuff in the middle was just a little boring.

Shopping and hanging out in malls is not my forte. I hate the way everyone is rushy and rude. The girl that served us lunch was a fine example of this. Another great example was to be seen at McDonalds on the way home. I went in to grab a coffee and the man in front of me was standing in two lines, kinda half in each so he can take the one that gets to the cash register first. Once the man picked the best line the lady behind me pushed into the line next to him, leaving me standing there waiting for this guy to make his massive order. In those sort of situations I wish I had the guts to say: "Hey asshole, which line are you in?" and when the lady pushed in: "Hey bitch, I was here before you and I will be served before you, now fuck off!" Sure I might get punched in the face or arrested , but it'd be worth it.

I played heaps of StarCraft today and over the whole weekend. I love StarCraft, everything about it makes it the best game ever made. I hope the announcement from Blizzard later this month is announcing the sequel.

PSLoggedOn Getting Started on Windows Server 2008 R2

Image
PSLoggedOn is a tool I downloaded to allow me to find out which computers a user is currently logged on to. Getting it up and running wasn’t exactly easy. I’m running a Windows Server 2008 R2 test environment. The first error I encountered was: Error browing network: The list of servers for this workgroup is not currently available. Note: I kept the spelling mistake from the error message to make it easier to find via search engines. To get past this error, you have to enable and start the “Computer Browser” service. Then I started getting the error telling me that the Administrator is not logged on. That’s simply not true because I am logged onto another server (Name: ELARA): I turned the firewall OFF OFF OFF (It is a test network after all). I enabled Network Discovery and to do that I went on a service starting frenzy: DNS Client, Function Discovery Resource Publication, SSDP Discovery, and UPnP Device Host, Computer Browser After all that, I ran the script against the se
