Orange Modem Connection Down?
by majiq mud 18 Jan '11

18 Jan '11

Hi, Wanted to ask if anyone else is experiencing a problematic connection on the Orange modem. Also if there's anyone from Orange on list who can assist, much appreciated. I'm using an Orange connection in Thika. For the last week or so, the modem connect okay but I get 0kpbs download speed. At best, sometimes I get an intermittent download (0kpbs - 20kpbs), very unstable. Upload speeds seem okay/normal. Have Orange customer service, despite all their help, problem persists. Also tried using a different Orange and Line modem, experienced same problem. Anyone from Orange on list who can assist, much appreciated. Asante.

Bar coding Dispute

Someone educate me on this...a bar code represents a several digit number and the bar pattern is determined by the standard used...right? Do we have a corresponding database of what the code represents universally? e.g 12457890=>unique product? http://www.standardmedia.co.ke/InsidePage.php?id=2000026918&cid=457&story=K…

Are we letting the PS get away with this too?
by aki 18 Jan '11

18 Jan '11

@Collins, just a quick one and then am gone... Since people like me are stuck in the research of the history and past, I'd like to bring out something important that could be significant to your views. One thing that any govts did not plan on having are the mass mobile markets which have empowered people. In KE, I think we are around 16 Million and that are serious revenues. We can deny revenues that can make them think twice about such decisions by a simple self-ban on making calls for even a single day nation-wide, kenyans will have spoken. Some thots.... :-)

TRENDY DESKTOP - HOW KENYANS TWEET: THE TOP TWITTER CLIENTS
by Jacob Ayienda 17 Jan '11

17 Jan '11

TRENDY DESKTOP - HOW KENYANS TWEET: THE TOP TWITTER CLIENTS I looked at 11,500 tweets and found several ways in which kenyans interact with the Twitter. These is a follow up to a previous analysis 6 months ago. Again, I used the Twittter API to monitor public feeds from the Kenyan locality over a 24hr period. The tweets were cumulatively collected for a 24hr period using Trendy Desktop. On average 1,000 tweets are sent every hour and well over 15, 000 tweets each day The results are attached as images. What is most significant is the rise of Snaptu as the preffered method of tweeting. Snaptu rose from 15% to 42% of all the tweets sent while twitter (including mobile) dropped from 59% to 30% as compared to 6 months ago. Also included is a list of 7 top twitter users in Kenya who happen to contribute over 21% of the volume of tweets sent and the clients they normally use. More analysis of these later.

Microsoft: Future Interface is Kinect
by David Kiania | Asentric Consulting Ltd 17 Jan '11

17 Jan '11

Last year I said in jest that Kinect could find it's way to the enterprise turns out am not very wrong. In an interview with Maria Bartiromo and Steve Ballmer he alludes to the same. http://www.usatoday.com/money/companies/management/bartiromo/2011-01-17-bar… Maria Q: What's the most important technology trend that you think will happen in 2011, 2012? SB A: People will focus on two things: natural user interface and the Cloud, with natural interface meaning voice, touch, vision recognition. You see this stuff in Kinect, you see it in phones, you see it in tablets. Cloud?? (sic). In my humble opinion (IMHO), Microsoft has produced only two noteworthy products viz Excel and Kinect.

LED vs LCD TVs
by Odhiambo Washington 17 Jan '11

17 Jan '11

I have started saving for a TV, to replace my Cathode Ray Tube, but I simply cannot decide on what I want, except that 32" is just enough for my viewing:-) 37" would be the extreme I can go sincerely, not above! Now that is all I seem to know. I have spoken to an electronics engineer friend of mine and he tells me that between Plasma, LCD and LED, he'll go for LED any time. My worry is something I've just seen while checking out LG website - that the lifespan of an LED TV is 30,000hrs. That is like 3 years, right? (When it's running 24hrs non-stop which is not quite practical). In my hse, there are some pests who can easily run a TV for 17hrs per day so this worries me, unless I misread/miscalculated something. I was looking at these<http://www.lg.com/uk/common/compare/products-compare-result.jsp?CatID=8115&…> and comparing, but I am still lost. What is OLED, for those in the know? Can someoen please offer me free advise on what I should go for, and why? -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Damn!!

It is so aesthetically pleasing, it caught my eye almost instantly, i sat and toyed with it and yes, it was smoother than XP or W2k. My issue is not in line with the AV. It started with a few glitches with the Video Card albeit it's an on board VGA. Whilst typing using MS Word i heard a rather chilling scream from the room below with my name repeated frantically. For a moment there i thought someone had broken in to the house only to get to the study and find my mother worried looking at a rapidly flickering screen. Kind of unnecessary and it didn't happen in earlier versions. This was an updated VGA driver from MS on the auto update function, granted things like this shouldn't bother many people, it's a "usual" thing. However, why put up with it? It's not happened to me when i use Suse, or RH, or Fedora. Why Windows? why does something happen to the product from a Fortune 500 Company? The OS is used on almost 80% of desktops around the world. @Ledermann ReactOS seems like something i'd try. Moving my parents ( 60+ in age ) to a different system from Windows 7 seems a bit.. cruel. They for the first time said. They Like it. I'd like to think they're kind of like my clients. I'd rather get them satisfied with what they have at my expense and see them happy over get them upset because i changed things too much. I will still try out ReactOS. I'm more interested in making the blooming OS work for me. Not the other way around. Feels like i'm working with the Kenyan GOV"T! Watchman.

Content Access and ethics
by Dennis Kioko 14 Jan '11

14 Jan '11

Yesterday Mwalimu Mati contacted me about the *temporary* closure of the Mars Group Website. (http://marsgroupkenya.org/new/) . Reports on the internet that the site had been closed due to a developer creating an app that gathered information from the site. Mati says the site was closed 10 days before the developer raised the above concerns. However, the main issue here is that the developer had developed an App that used information from Mars Group, and had not bothered to inform Mars Group that he was working on such an application. The application , would have drawn more traffic from the website. Mati says this would account to higher hosting fees for the 2.3 TB that of information that Mars Group has collected so far. Furthermore, it was odd that the developer then wrongly heaped accusations on Mars Group that it was trying to keep information that belonged to the Kenyan public away from the public. This includes budget items for the last several years that Mars Group has digitised from hard copies. Developers also need to abide by ethics when developing apps that access data from other people's websites, and should have even the slightest courtesy of even informing them. As the developer realised, by informing Mars Group, he would have been aware of their planned changes to their website. -- with Regards: The Chinese are known to be entrepreneurs, and coupled with some imagination, are now playing the role of nature in food and beverage production. http://gramware.blogspot.com/2011/01/chinese-way-to-become-imaginative.html

@George, nice site and colours. Though am a bit confused when people ask for opinions, are they asking based on the design ( graphics person ) or the code ( developers ) and functions? I'm working on a catalgue system that can be adapted to almost anything and one of my targets is to get models on it. I'm signed upto various int'l sites that I purchase images with its copyright ratios for web or print. I see you have used images, how do you go about the copyright issues on these if the models are kenyans, which agency did you negotiate the rates with? Rgds.

iHub statistics.....
by aki 14 Jan '11

14 Jan '11

Firstly, a big congrats on the achievement. According to the main page of the site, there are a total of 2381 Techies: - 976 Developer Techies - 685 Creative Techies - 720 Other Techies These are huge numbers and admirable. My question to the iHub comittee is that it seems now that it has settled, what are the plans to use the potential of talent to do things? I remember reading that iHub was for doers and so far, the ladies with the M-Farm are the only ones to have made a significant step forward. What about the 972 developer techies? Can the iHub Committee also use "If this is 2030, what would be the East African Information Age Icon of Engineering or Design that we will have created?" to start off a long term process? Some thots. Rgds.

Fwd: NEWS RELEASE: Major Websites Commit to 24-Hour Test Flight for IPv6
by Michuki Mwangi 13 Jan '11

13 Jan '11

-------- Original Message -------- Date: Wed, 12 Jan 2011 09:35:48 -0500 From: Leslie Daigle <daigle(a)isoc.org> To: chapter-delegates(a)elists.isoc.org * * Hi, FYI -- drawing your attention to an announcement we've just made of a major event we're coordinating for June this year. I'm quite pleased that the major content providers of the world are stepping up to do a visible test drive of IPv6, and excited that we have the opportunity to coordinate the activity. This is a first announcement, and we'll be following up with more detailed presentations at upcoming technical meetings. As the announcement notes, we are looking for more participation, and will be especially happy to get some major non-US content providers signed up to participate. It would be great if you could help us identify willing content provider participants -- sign up is available here: https://www.isoc.org/isoc/contact/index.php?id=25 Leslie. *Major Websites Commit to 24-Hour Test Flight for IPv6* /ï¿½World IPv6 Dayï¿½ to take place on June 8, 2011/ /GENEVA, SWITZERLAND and RESTON, VIRGINIA, USA/**ï¿½*12 January 2011* ï¿½Facebook, Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) and Yahoo (NASDAQ:YHOO), websites with more than one billion combined visits each day, are joining major content delivery networks Akamai (NASDAQ: AKAM) and Limelight Networks (NASDAQ: LLNW), and the Internet Society, for the first global-scale trial of the new Internet Protocol, IPv6. On June 8, 2011, dubbed ï¿½World IPv6 Day,ï¿½ participants will enable IPv6 on their main services for 24 hours. With IPv4 addresses running out this year, the industry must act quickly to accelerate full IPv6 adoption or risk increased costs and limited functionality online for Internet users everywhere. The companies are coming together to help motivate organizations across the industryï¿½Internet service providers, hardware manufacturers, operating system vendors and other web companiesï¿½to prepare their services for the transition. The Internet Society is supporting World IPv6 Day as part of its efforts to accelerate IPv6 deployment. ï¿½2011 is a pivotal year in IPv6 deployment, and World IPv6 Day will prove to be an important milestone,ï¿½ commented Leslie Daigle, the Internet Societyï¿½s Chief Internet Technology officer. ï¿½By providing an opportunity for the Internet industry to collaborate to test IPv6 readiness we expect to lay the groundwork for large-scale IPv6 adoption and help make IPv6 ready for prime time. The greater the scope of the trial, the more effective it will be for all participants so we wholeheartedly welcome additional participants.ï¿½ IPv6, the successor to the protocol currently used on the Internet, was designed in the late 1990s but has not seen deployment on a global scale. With IPv4 address space running out, the industry cannot afford to wait much longer. Vint Cerf, Googleï¿½s Chief Internet Evangelist and co-inventor of the TCP/IP protocol stack, commented, "In the short history of the Internet, the transition to IPv6 is one of the most important steps we will take together to protect the Internet as we know it. It's as if the Internet was originally designed with a limited number of telephone numbers, and we're soon going to run out." Google has offered a separate IPv6-only version of search on ipv6.google.com <http://ipv6.google.com/>since early 2008, and during World IPv6 Day the company will enable IPv6 for its main websites, including www.google.com <http://www.google.com/>and www.youtube.com <http://www.youtube.com/>. Given the diversity of technology that powers the Internet, the global nature of the trial is crucial to identify unforeseen problems. ï¿½Participating in World IPv6 Day will allow us to obtain real-life data that we can use to ensure a seamless user experience as we transition to IPv6,ï¿½ said Adam Bechtel, Vice President for Yahooï¿½s Infrastructure Group. ï¿½We welcome this opportunity to collaborate with the technical community and provide leadership in addressing the scaling challenges facing the Internet.ï¿½ World IPv6 Day marks a key milestone in enabling more and more computers and smart phones to come online. As more of the world moves online, IPv6 will be critical for the Internet to reach its full potential as a catalyst for growth, innovation and economic prosperity. IPv6 provides over four billion times more addresses than IPv4, which will help connect the billions of people not connected today. Facebook views the rollout of IPv6 as a critically important step to keep the world connected. ï¿½As an industry, we're working together to ensure future generations continue to have open and direct access to the Internet as we do today," said Jonathan Heiliger, Vice President of Technical Operations at Facebook. "The number of web-connected devices is exploding, and World IPv6 Day is a crucial step in ensuring they can all communicate." Akamai Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: AKAM), a leading provider of cloud optimization services, will enable customers to participate in World IPv6 Day. "IPv6 adoption is still in its infancy," said Harald Prokop, Senior Vice President of Engineering at Akamai. "We stand ready to support customers through this important trial, and believe that early planning and testing will ensure a smooth transition to IPv6." To support the transition to IPv6, Akamai customers will be able to seamlessly make their existing websites available via IPv6 without requiring disruptive changes to their origin networking infrastructure. Tom Coffeen, Director of Global Network Architecture for Limelight Networks, said, "As part of our ongoing commitment to IPv6, Limelight Networks today is actively delivering customer content over the worldï¿½s first fully IPv6-compliant content delivery service. We are pleased to participate in World IPv6 Day to encourage the adoption of IPv6 across the Internet and to transform address resource challenges into innovation and competitive advantage for our customers." One of the goals of World IPv6 Day is to expose potential issues under controlled conditions and address them as soon as possible. The vast majority of users should be able to access services as usual, but in rare cases, misconfigured or misbehaving network equipment, particularly in home networks, may impair access to participating websites during the trial. Current estimates are that 0.05% of users may experience such problems, but participating organizations will be working together with operating system manufacturers, home router vendors and ISPs to minimize the number of users affected. Participants will also be working together to provide tools to detect problems and offer suggested fixes in advance of the trial. For more information about World IPv6 Day, how to get involved, and links to useful information for users, visit www.internetsociety.org/worldipv6day <http://www.internetsociety.org/worldipv6day>. *About the need for IPv6* IPv4 has approximately four billion IP addresses (the sequence of numbers assigned to each Internet-connected device). The explosion in the number of people, devices and web services on the Internet means that IPv4 is running out of space. IPv6, the next-generation Internet protocol, which provides over four billion times more space, will connect the billions of people not connected today and will help ensure the Internet can continue its current growth rate. *About the Internet Society* The Internet Society is a non-profit organisation founded in 1992 to provide leadership in Internet-related standards, education and policy. It is dedicated to ensuring the open development, evolution and use of the Internet for the benefit of people throughout the world.

@job: if am not wrong, it depends: if you buy say 1 Mbps and its shared link then its not illegal to resell the same link, but there is a restriction of re-selling the link to only 80% of its capacity. However if you buy a dedicated 1Mbps they shouldn't resell that link.

Auto folder in OUTLOOK - virtual notice board
by Thuo Wilson 13 Jan '11

13 Jan '11

Hello, Another client gave me a request that kept me thinking... How can one send VIRTUAL NOTICE BOARDS to emails Its like this - it's a company with like 100 users if not more, once in a while notices are sent and its required that the mails go to particular folder automatically (that may happen with email filters by using keywords/subject/from/to etc) but the catch is the folder has to be created automatically if it doesn't exist - manual creation is tiresome. Will outlook (microsoft/outlook express) allow such scripts if any to be executed on the user machine? Show me the way... Thanks guys. -- WIlson.

Iron Age, Industrialization Age, Computer Age and Information Age......
by aki 13 Jan '11

13 Jan '11

Had a slow afternoon so spent doing some reading on the various above. What a disappointment that despite access to good education, universities and open exposure to the information age, we are still where time left us - ABSOLUTELY STANDING STILL, somewhere maybe thousands to a few million years ago. Absolutely nothing, not even any medical breakthroughs which is quite frustrating to realize. How many more generations and generations is it going to need? I suspect it may never happen. In current times ( say the past 100 years ), those who are wealthy can only think of becoming better enterprenuers while those at the middle and bottom end clearly seem to follow the same cycle. In another 1000 years, what will be written ? It may seem harsh but true. These are some thots: Why did time stand still? Why people cannot see this and know we have place in history. I think the next time one thinks of blaming doctors, lawyers of being too commercially driven despite taking oaths to their professions to serve human kind, know this : They are just doing what was taught to them i.e entreprenuership and investments. They will not improve or enchance their fields of expertise except those driven by eg Universities. To take this argument even further, what is corruption if not an extension of entreprenuership because people place themselves in positions to practise self financial empowerment through various mis-deeds. I ask you these straight questions. Did you invent fire? No! Did you invent gun powder? No! Did you go to your metal foundry today and create a bronze or metal device to further human kind? No! Did you do anything at all in the Information Age...... No! So keeping it simple and some food for thought for those who have a deeper thinking on issues. As usual, the disclaimer I can add is that these are just my amatuer views. Rgds. :-)

Setting up Google email alongside existing email server
by Alex Wanjohi 12 Jan '11

12 Jan '11

Skunks, I have a scenario, i need to setup google apps email for students in a university, yet the already exisiting email accounts (for lecturers and HODs) should not be moved from their current email server. i.e student mails will be maintained in the cloud, while lecturers emails (already working) will be maintained at the university's server. How possible is it to have this kind of dual email handling? without ofcourse messing up the MX records of the already working emails.. -Alex

If this is 2030, what would be the East African Information Age Icon of Engineering or Design that we will have created?
by aki 12 Jan '11

12 Jan '11

Though some of us may not exist or be too old to remember anything in 2030, we in the code world are lucky enough to change the destiny and outcome of what happens. If we started today and worked on a 2-5 year project that could become the biggest voluntary involvement of developers in the region and eventually the Icon of our engineering or design of the East Africa Information Age, what would it be? - Leave govt out of this. Things will never get done - Leave commercialism out of this as there are millions of people and developers out there ahead of us - Leave out an Operating System, there are plenty around - Leave out applications for poverty, community and social areas as these are highly contested by private firms, ngos, commerce etc Some thots, take your time and if you think it's a strong possible, then lets take it offlist at some point.

Web Syndication......some help needed
by aki 11 Jan '11

11 Jan '11

While I'm ok with XML and reading/writing streams, I'm working on a test model that will aggregate some of the useful RSS links that am subscribed to. What am finding not easy to understand is how excatly the syndication process works, or rather the visual concept. Am looking for feedback/advice from someone who has built their own aggregator. I'm avoiding a practical test situation where too much polling would get me onto the restricted list of the servers. These are the questions, in no particular order: - Does a website publish an xml file as the syndication format and does the syndication file get stored on a local dir on the server awaiting request? - When the files are called with the http get command, how does the syndication format know of the last update and therefore releases as a stream? - Once the xml file has been downloaded onto the client machine, what distinguishes the latest from the older files and how does the client xml stream reader know about this update and which file to parse? Any help will be appreciated.

[OT] Potato electricity
by gisho 11 Jan '11

11 Jan '11

The holy grail of renewable energy research may lie in the cooking pot, according to scientists. The search for a cheap source of electricity for remote, off-grid communities, has led to batteries that work on freshly boiled potatoes. One slice of potato can generate 20 hours of light, and several slices could provide enough energy to power simple medical equipment and even a low-power computer, said a research team from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel ...... http://www.scidev.net/en/news/potato-battery-could-help-meet-rural-energy-n… -erastus

A noble idea
by Muhile Abdulaziz 11 Jan '11

11 Jan '11

*www.pango.co.tz.* Mine is a simple yet noble idea: to provide a platform that connects landlords to prospective tenants with the overall goal of making house hunting easier for Tanzanians. We also seek to provide a means through which landlords can publicize their property for rent at the most competitive rates in Tanzania, and cut out the middle man/ dalali. Property/house hunting in Dar es Salaam has been a problem to many because of the so called Dalalis, many have been conned, robbed and even wasted so much time and money in such of a house. As i result we decided to come up with a platform that does not include the middle man, no one month pay to the dalali, no dalali charges to view a house and other made up charges they come up with. We know old habits die hard and that some dalalis are actualy very good and reliable and for that we have the *Dalali Corner* where you can get contacts and details of dalalis near you (register yourself). Think of *www.pango.co.tz.* as your newspaper classifieds but with more words and pictures for you to describe your property, 24/7 accessibility of your ads and longer ad placements at lower costs than traditional newspaper classifieds, registerd members have the ability to modify there adverts as many times as they want. *www.pango.co.tz - Buyers & Property owners connect Visit it today to advertise, sponsor, or even place an ad Please forward this to your friends* *and* *please let me know what you think of the website what to improve and what to add and remove * -- regards AA.Muhile Abdul Title: Creative *Address* Plot 145, Kijitonyama Area, P.O.Box 71387 Dar es Salaam Tanzania Cell: +255 783 018998

Stuck at disk is write-protected !!

@BigBoss, :-) a flash back from the past.....I'd suggest you to try what we used to do when dealing with semi-conductor/microchip problems You need to find a freezer spray to superchill to around -60F, this will change the semi-conductor state. This superchill spray was available from RS components in the UK. Alternatively, put the card into a small platic case and find a deep freezer to leave it overnight though your best bet would be the superchill spray. With the card super chilled, try to format it immediately. It just may work.. HTHs.

MPESA Online Project
by Kebaya Mwamba 08 Jan '11

08 Jan '11

Hi everyone, would it be a good new years wish if MPESA went online? I am freely givng this idea to any programmer out there. To spark real ecommerce in kenya, i believe MPESA should both co exist on the mobile scene and go the www. My idea of an ideal MPESA online scenario is where by during checkout, a customer selects MPESA payment, s/he just enters the mobile phone number and PIN number and the API process the order in the background in like (30secs) and processes the payment. The client and vendor both get SMS a few seconds later confirming transaction. If any programmer can do this, please take it up! All the best to you.! Just make the API public for intergration into ecommerce sites Remember just enter phone number and PIN and click process payment If MPESA goes online it will be truly global :) Kebaya -- on a road less travelled

Hey Skunks! Suppose you want to manufacture a consumer electronic device for the Kenyan market. What are the local regulations of quality that are equivalent to the European RohS (http://www.rohs.eu/english/index.html) REACH ( http://ec.europa.eu/environment/chemicals/reach/reach_intro.htm) and others? The KEBS website is unclear on this. Has any fellow Skunk got info on this? Thank you.

Global spam e-mail levels suddenly fall
by Daudi Were 07 Jan '11

The amount of junk e-mail being sent across the globe has seen a dramatic fall in recent months. The volume of spam has dropped steadily since August, but the Christmas period saw a precipitous decline<http://www.symantec.com/connect/blogs/spam-volume-drop-christmas-day> . One security firm detected around 200 billion spam messages being sent each day in August, but just 50 billion in December.

@ Ericko glad you found him, hes a cool guy. �I agree on the graphics part and also ecosystem wise. �Nothing out there beats xbox live at least not yet. �I guess im just tired of baby sitting an xbox. �I mean user experience is brilliant. �But for you not to damage the damn thing u need a UPS, a fan to blow on the heat sinks as well as a solatek guard. If you don't do that you can bet you will have to call Salim or wrap it in a blanket. �My problem is that its delicate. �And I also hate that the powersupply is external makes it hard to carry around. �It should be built into the console. �But on graphics and immersive play you are right! It rocks! �The only thing that beats that are gaming pc's, go figure :-). �I sold mine after i chokad with the TLC required. �I'm now chilling for early adopters to buy the new one with ventilated heat sinks and 250 GB HDD as well as built in wifi. �I will read the reviews and then decide if i want it.

The Rise and Rise of Android
by Kevin Ouma 05 Jan '11

05 Jan '11

Skunks The other day I bought a relatively fairly priced Android Phone for my wife at 13,000 and after a few days of working with it, looks miles ahead of my Nokia Phone that cost me 50k. It seems like all app developers are leaning towards Iphone or Android apps Nowadays. In my honest opinion Android is likely to be the mass market platform of the future and will considerably reduce the barrier for the masses to access high end smartphones at low prices. The Graph below should be a scary trend for apple and RIM ( don't know about OVI at this point) Apple seems to be having a slow growth, RIM is declining while Android is growing like crazy. If I were Nokia, I would definitely go the Android route. [image: BlackBerry November2010 Android Closing in on BlackBerry U.S. Market Share [Study]]

by Claire Njoki 05 Jan '11

05 Jan '11

Hi Skunkers, Yesterday I caught a glimpse of that annoying gameshow on KTN that comes after the prime news. The annoying lady with an annoying voice was asking the following question: 11 x 2 + 32 - 21 + 5 x 3 + 5 x 1 = ? She even told the gamblers that the answer is either 53 or 120. After almost 2 hours of "waiting" for callers to give her an answer...apparently people were "not calling"...someone called and said that the answer is 120. She said, Correct!!!! You are the winner of Ksh. 160,000... Anyway, fellow skunkers, my calculation shows that the answer should actually be 13. What do you guys think is it 13? Claire.

Plight of experienced Sysadmins/skilled IT staff - New years food for thought.
by Patrick Kariuki 04 Jan '11

04 Jan '11

By experienced I mean a Systems administrator with over 5 years, in the corporate employment sector, aged 28 years and above. I noticed that those working for medium-sized companies that at some point do not continue to offer as much challenge as their larger-sized counterparts, continue to work until the time they either get a promotion(if they already haven't) or slowly get pushed to the corner as younger equally skilled professionals take over, and eventually get laid off(when the 40 age bracket nears). In a country with: - Very few Linux Kernel developers (who find it more rewarding to migrate to the US or Taiwan) - Limited/Already filled CIO / IT Director employment positions - Virtually non-existent Government research lab - subject to confirmation - Virtually non-existent regional high performance computing grids - subject to confirmation but with: - Numerous employers willing to exploit this vulnerable bunch - Numerous "listeners" itching to make a quick buck from ideas they overhear - Realistic but unnecessary academic or certification requirements non of which are pegged on the Systems administrator's prior experience. - A flooded market of Technical consultants - Underdeveloped Information Technology infrastructure - compared ofcourse to SA or Egypt - Not enough angel investors to support capital for potential small IT consulting businesses - Human capital specialists quick to label - 'This one will ask for alot of money' ..... I could go on and on What is the plight of experienced and skilled Sysadmins or IT staff that TIME considers 'deadbeat' where employment or self-employment is concerned?

OT : Historical Kenya and its land....
by aki 04 Jan '11

04 Jan '11

Just been reading this article http://www.standardmedia.co.ke/InsidePage.php?id=2000025530&cid=4& and find the matters discussed in the article disturbing. In my travels all over in ke to see the beauty and diversity of the country over the many years, there are numerious times I've seen this ugly subject brought forth. New Constitution or not, it has no impact on the deep rooted problems that are well spread over KE. I think this line in the story above says it all "said they have vowed not to allow *strangers* to be resettled in the land as it belonged to their ancestors, hence it is theirs". Who does KE belong to is the question that comes to mind? Does the constitution provide for freedom of movement and settlement in KE without prejudice and restrictions or is our constitution a worthless piece of crap that is only good in paper for debate? Me amatuer thots.

Re: [Skunkworks] Land Cruisers Vs Patrols
by King'ori Gitahi 04 Jan '11

Patrols are sluggish. �They take a long time to pick up speed. �It takes 7.9 seconds to hit 80 kph. �Sounds like nothing now but on along trip you will get annoyed at the inability to overtake while you have oncoming traffic. �Patrols are otherwise extremely robust and reliable and at one time dominated the Dakar rally due to this aspect. �They since lost out to Pajero and now Touareg. If you go for the cruiser avoid the Prado unless its the 2010 version or the box prado. �Prado is fast but unstable due to its narrow wheelbase and high ride height. �Its an excellent�off-road�car but poor on road car. � The VX cruiser is your best bet, it does on road and�off-road�quite�well. On road because it has a wide wheelbase so you can corner at high speeds without�worrying�that it will tip over (centre�of gravity and all.} and off road because well its a�land-cruiser. �There is a special done by Richard Hammond of Top gear where he pits all 4*4s together and the�land-cruiser�VX�Amazon�wins�against�the trooper, range rover vogue, pajero etc. �Look it up. �If i find the link i will post it. Happy off roading. Kingz For to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.

You might also consider a 1995 model or previous range rover with the 3.9 ltr V8 (one of the most reliable engines, fuel economy aside). then again if you go with the new fuel efficient ones, no one will fix them for you. You might have to replace the air suspensions with heavy duty coils for more reliability... -----Original Message----- From: Garr Patronas Sent: 03/01/2011, 3:23 pm To: Skunkworks Mailing List Subject: Re: [Skunkworks] Land Cruisers Vs Patrols "...extra tyre...a machete.."
