I have a comcast email account, but never gave it out (nor did I ever give out my adelphia.net account), so I never check the account. well tonight I logged in to it for the first time in months and had 374 spam messages in my inbox. Their Spam catcher sucks. What is even worse, is their “Report as Spam” button points to the same URL as the “Delete” button does no wonder there is so much spam in there if there is no way to build a Bayesian filter.. Nice job comcast!
After looking in a little further, it looks like they use Symantec Brightmail for the filtering…

across the room I sit
no interaction do I get
it is ones and zeros that I hear
which brings me to a tear
because the worst thing I fear
is losing you my sweet dear

Recently started looking for some new servers and was going through Sun’s new product line up.. Check out this:
Sun Fire X4150.. I thought I would never see the day where you could get a 1U server with dual quad core chips and 8 hard drives in it and 64 GB of ram.. Talk about a fast little box… Add up that you can have 8 x 146gb drives in it and that gives you over 1.1 TB of raw storage.
And talk about storage, make sure to check out the Sun StorageTek 5800 system.. Looks to be pretty cool.

Well the other night it was 60+ degrees, raining, thundering and lightening. This morning it was 27 degrees and ice on the roads in certain spots. I wish it would make up it’s mind as to what it wants to be outside.

Another thing that was talked about at the Sun Day today, was Project Indiana. I went and downloaded it tonight and installed it in a vmware image on my MBP. Interestingly the ISO image is only about 630 meg in size. Something interesting to see when it is finally installed and booted up:

If you pay close attention, the / file system is controlled by ZFS!
Some output of other commands:

going to have to play with Indiana some and see how it is…
