I have to side with zenon here, honestly. The draft hasn't been imposed in ~35 years, and it doesn't look like it will be anytime soon either. Seriously, having mandatory military duty would be much much worse than being on a list that'll never be used.

considering how low a sign up rate the military has at the moment i wouldnt be at all surprised if they did go for it if things were tto get worse in iraq...

But, indeed it has to suck to be enlisted as a soldier in the worlds most power-hungry nation (cough *USA*). Who wouldn't be unhappy with the thought of dying, shot to death by someone, in a far away country, alone in the night, just because the shareholders of some oil-company thinks their stocks are getting to low?
That has to suck.

actually i know quite a few people who are "enlisted as a soldier in the worls most power-hungry nation" and there proud of serving there country, regaurdless of what someone from sweden may think [censored].

one of which is a girlfriend of mine who i just found out is in iraq...

and then you have good ole' Canada where nothing is mandatory, but my brother who is living in the States had to sign up on that list so he can be drafted

Highlander, i misses you

when you gonna come visit us? baby giz needs a godfather sooner or later...

hi everyone. Not sure who here would still remember me. I used to go by the name of Hammigal. That was something like 3-5 years ago though. Anyone still remember me?

Yes Sarah, I'm sure Curse does too

Oh, I won't let him forget me. It would be kinda hard for him to anyway considering we have the same friends, I have both his cell and home number and he lives like 20 mins away. You on the other hand, couldn't be sure.

That was my little way of sayin he's back too ...

And I'm still looking for pictures

yeah i miss you to Giz lol, i've just been flooded with work, goin to Germany for the month of May for Computer Intrusion Testing, then hopefully in July coming down to the US maybe visit then hrmmm

Sweet [censored] . Any luck of a donation sometime? I have a DVR project (and others) lined up (specs and all to be published on completion) but I want to attempt to use some semi modern parts that require funding (such as the tv tuner with on card mpeg encoding).

Can't wait to see you; be sure you rent a car as mines out of commission hehe

Donation eh, yeah i can swing that, it will have to wait till I get back from Germany though got to much on my plate write now

hehe understandable.

Some more tidbits on the DVR project; It'll function a a cluster...

Main Server is what is plugged into the satelite and a gigabit switch with Cat6 cabling to the switch; it'll record shows on a schedual.

Other machines placed around the house (don't have to be terribly fast) will be networked in and using linking software to retrieve feeds through the main server...

More details later; may even make it's own thread as to stop hijacking this thread hehe...

Curse is cool. He's staying outa trouble which is good.

Just a question that I've been woundering about for quite some time...

Where have all of you heard about UGN Security?
What brought you here?
Why did you stay?
What did you expect from joining UGN Security?
Have your expectations changed?

1. It was first on Google.
2. All else failed.
3. I did not think it has anything to do with security.
4. Yes.

Why did you stay?

Woops, missed that one

I stayed because unlike other places there are no "forced advertising", the colors chosen are cool, and a few other uninportant things.

Hey, we have advertising, just no one cares to do anything with it :x
