Thursday went well, mostly miscellaneous stuff. Helped Mike J with the Windows and Active Directory stuff as needed, and he got OS X working right with it. Now it's just changing stuff bit by bit until we figure out why it didn't work in our production environment (I have a feeling it'll end up being something with cross-domain authentication). Lunch was a Chinese buffet with Sheldon and a few coworkers. That went well, although my breath reeked for the rest of the day (to the point people a decent distance from me could smell it), and breath mints and dew didn't help much. Given Dave's experience as well, I'm thinking we'll avoid that place for a while. After work I played with my phone a bit. No luck on the fast connection stuff. I did manage to get it to connect, but my pppd got confused with something and dropped the conection while my phone didn't. This caused problems when it thought I was logged in while I really wasn't. Hopefully I'll get that stable soon. When I went home I sat around and just caught up on tech reading and stuff. Friday was sleeping in until after noon. Then there was restocking the office dew supply, depositing some rebate checks (and finally updating my address with the bank), and getting some necessities at Cub. Watched Bowling for Columbine which is an interesting movie. It brings up a lot of good points, but I also agree with "bob the moo"'s comments on imdb about Moore's style and things he did. After that figured out I was confused about the time all day (stupid SprintPCS), and headed over to Nick's place. There we watched The Breakfast Club, which is good. I always catch more things each time I see that. After that we just hung out and talked until everyone left. Got home and find someone infected with a virus. No big deal until his computer starts having fun with the lists server - apparently he had a lot of list server messages on his machine for the thing to pull addresses from. Got sick of that rather quickly (as I see the amount of time to clean up the held message queues growing) so blacklisted his machine on the two main mail servers. The cool part is now that we have SMTP blocking, those are the only two that can be used from on campus anyways, so the spreading is effectively stopped. Why do people insist on opening password protected zips from people they don't know and then running them?!?
