Skatterbrainz Blog: Random Thoughts: Evolutionary Obsolescence and Overlords
http://skatterbrainz.blogspot.com/2014/08/random-thoughts-evolutionary.html
Sunday, August 17, 2014. Random Thoughts: Evolutionary Obsolescence and Overlords. 3D printing, for example, will enable us (in time) to create many of the things we have to purchase today. Sure, we'll need to obtain the media from which the printer can generate objects. But that's just for now. And when we can generate our own power, make our own contraptions, and not have to barter and trade for most things, what then? What do humans do when they don't need other humans by necessity? Imagine a world wh...

Skatterbrainz Blog: The Missing SCCM Database View
http://skatterbrainz.blogspot.com/2014/08/the-missing-sccm-database-view.html
Tuesday, August 26, 2014. The Missing SCCM Database View. For most interfaces I've worked on over the past ten years, which involve poking a stick at System Center Configuration Manager 2007 or 2012, this is one database view (or stored proc) that I'm usually building for myself. It basically tosses about eight built-in Views and Tables into a blender, with a dash or two of stupid sauce and provides a fairly good picture of each computer in your site database. ORDER BY v R System.Name0.

Skatterbrainz Blog: From the Book: .NET Framework 3.5, Windows 8 and AutoCAD 2015 Deployments
http://skatterbrainz.blogspot.com/2014/08/from-book-net-framework-35-windows-8.html
Tuesday, August 19, 2014. From the Book: .NET Framework 3.5, Windows 8 and AutoCAD 2015 Deployments. That title is not long enough. If I want to provide product titles to Microsoft as a possible side business, I need to make the titles longer. Like that will ever happen. Anyhow, this post is based on a part of my recent ebook " The AutoCAD 2015 Network Administrator's Bible. And focuses on dealing with one particular road bump in deploying AutoCAD 2015 to Windows 8.x clients. Why is this a big deal?

Skatterbrainz Blog: The Most Destructive Force in the IT Operations World
http://skatterbrainz.blogspot.com/2014/08/the-most-destructive-force-in-it.html
Wednesday, August 20, 2014. The Most Destructive Force in the IT Operations World. What's more important: Your job and income, or your personal right to get what you want? Back up a second. Do you even have a right to get what you want? Which is more important: The success of your employer, or your job? If you said your job is more important, than you are like most Americans after a few beers or Xanax pills. When they open up and give up on resisting their honest opinions. They feel too much focus is on ...

But you want to send a console message via popup to a remote user or computer? 160; Windows Vista shipped with the MSG.EXE utility, which is still around in Windows 7.

Skatterbrainz Blog: Deploy Windows 8 Start Tiles Using Group Policy Preferences
http://skatterbrainz.blogspot.com/2012/11/deploy-windows-8-start-tiles-using.html
Tuesday, November 27, 2012. Deploy Windows 8 Start Tiles Using Group Policy Preferences. I've already written about creating custom shortcuts. To do things like "Shutdown" and "Restart" on the Desktop and Start screen for Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 systems. But I'm a HEE-YOOOOOOOOOOOGE (aka: really big) fan of Group Policy and Group Policy Preferences in particular. And since I like to leverage things Microsoft provides for free, this is a win-win. How to Do It. A new Group Policy Object (GPO).

http://skatterbrainz.blogspot.com/2010/07/what-does-autocad-command-do.html
Monday, July 26, 2010. What does the AutoCAD PURGE Command Do? I've explained this to users for almost 15 years. I'm a bit tired of it, so I'm going to say it here one more time and then that's it.

http://skatterbrainz.blogspot.com/2014/08/its-time-for-change.html
Sunday, August 31, 2014. It's Time for a Change. My first post on this blog was back in December 2007. It's been my release, my therapy, and my toy ever since. It's been there when my life when very bad, and very good. But, after seven (7) years of waiting for Google to add some much-needed tools to Blogger, I've finally had to accept the fact that they're not listening. Http:/ skatterbrainz.wordpress.com.
