texas video surveillence: do I have to post a sign?
In Texas, as a business, we have a surveillance camera right over top our computer/register area. An employee claims we have to have signs posted warning that CCTV is in use. I cannot find anything online stating exactly that. We installed the cameras ourselves and we monitor them ourselves. Do I need to post signs stating video surveillance is in use. Keep in mind, these are in public areas away from the bathroom, etc...

2 AnswersProgramming & Design10 years agoIs this guy a scammer - YES! theblackduckie@gmail.com?
theblackduckie@gmail.com is a scammer. They sent me an email offering me the chance to buy a ebay auction car I had bid on last month. The problem is... I bought the car 3 weeks ago directly from the seller... Doh! Not to mention the price was $8k cheaper :)
I'm just trying to get this email address out there so people know he/she is a phishing/scam artist...
6 AnswersAbuse and Spam1 decade agoHow do I troubleshoot scp timeouts when ssh and sftp seem to work fine?
Keep in mind, ssh works fine... I can run top all day long and never get disconnected. SFTP works fine too! This problems only effects SCP. When I try to SCP a file, it begins tranferring and every time, within 30 seconds it will reset the scp session. A debug of scp looks like this:
.....
debug2: channel 0: rcvd adjust 81920
debug2: channel 0: rcvd adjust 81920
debug2: channel 0: rcvd adjust 81920

There are two Juniper ISG2000 firewalls connected to both devices. No other users on these firewalls complain about this issue so I can only assume it's only effecting my networks.
So the question is... What steps would you suggest taking to troubleshoot this issue?
3 AnswersComputer Networking1 decade agoI have a 1992 Yamaha wave runner that sinks. How do I find the leak in the hull?
I bought an old waverunner that normally sat on a lift (dry) when not in use. I stuck it in the water for two nights and it sunk (as much as a waverunner can, which isn't much...). I've pumped out the water and it started up fine. How can I go about trying to trace down the leak?
2 AnswersBoats & Boating1 decade agoMy generator can't keep up with my air conditioner (marine), power factor cap?
I have a little honda eu2000i generator which overload-protects at 13.3 amps. I have a Polar Bay 7000btu 120v/9amp (reported) air conditioner on my sailboat. The AC works great when plugged into shore power but the generator overload-protects within 10 seconds of the compressor kicking on. I'm pretty sure this is because of the power factor. How do I add a capacitor to the 120v line to help the generator stay online? Is there a better (more modular) way to solve this?

5 AnswersRenting & Real Estate1 decade ago(emacs:x): Pango-WARNING **: failed to find shape engine, expect ugly output. engine-type='PangoRenderFc',?
When firing up emacs, I get:
(emacs:21169): Pango-CRITICAL **: No fonts found:
This probably means that the fontconfig
library is not correctly configured. You may need to
edit the fonts.conf configuration file. More information
about fontconfig can be found in the fontconfig(3) manual
page and on http://fontconfig.org/
(emacs:21169): Pango-WARNING **: failed to find shape engine, expect ugly output. engine-type='PangoRenderFc', script='latin'
To fix, I simply installed: urw-fonts
yum -y install urw-fonts
This fixed my problem on Fedora Core 10 installs on x86 and vmware x86 images.
