BREAKING NEWS...Michael Jackson dies of cardiac arrest


Recommended Posts

The internet is slowing down because of this.

I'll give him that,

I loved his music, the rest.............made me cringe to think about it being the same guy who made that music, but it wasnt enough to make me quite listening, altho im not an uberfan and never was interested in going to a concert or anything

People filmed the ambulance leaving his house, and they just showed it on tv....ugh!! :angry:

From what I've heard, some fans got into the hospital and pulled the fire alarm to try and get close to the body. There's actually mixed reports, some I've heard say it was the press who did it and others say it was the fans.

Just read that also - http://screencrave.com/2009-06-25/report-j...dblum-has-died/

No idea of the validity of this story though.

Why do people report stupid hoaxes at times when some people are grieving over a real incident?

There are other stupid rumours of other actors suddenly dying going around on the Internet (including Twitter etc.).

yeah, that's what sucks about twitter. All it takes is one person starting a fake rumour for it to quickly become "fact" and spread across the web

Can someone give a update on whats happening now?

The latest news is that four hours ago Jacko was rushed to the hospital after having a supposed heart attack. He died an hour to two hours ago (that is being debating right now). Right now the family, nor the hospital has made a statement.

That's pretty much it at this point. Not sure the heart attack has been confirmed though.

Cardiac Arrest was confirmed (which is actually worse than a heart attack).

Ahh, gotcha. What I've been listening to is my radio (riding in a car), so I'm kind of getting everything third party right now. And the news sites are getting hammered and that makes it really slow to connect to via AT&T's wonderful Edge network :p

Thanks for the info (Y)

    • This looks awesome, I will request access via Steam later this afternoon!
    • Personally, I’ve found that it’s usually worth investing in the infrastructure you don’t want to replace later, especially cabling. Running Cat6A (or better, depending on your needs) during an upgrade is relatively inexpensive compared to having to re-cable a few years down the road. For switches I try to balance current specs with realistic growth. If my budget allows it Ill choose switches with higher uplink speeds which leaves room for expanding later on, but I don’t necessarily overspend on access ports if the endpoints won’t benefit from them anytime soon. One lesson I’ve learned is that planning for scalability pays off. It’s much easier to add devices, VLANs, or higher-bandwidth workloads when your network infrastructure already supports it than to replace hardware later.  What is your budget like?
    • I hate the term, "future-proof." We saw it back in the 90's / 2000's, if not before. You cannot future-proof anything, since there is no definition of how far into the future you plan on prepping for. Best idea is to tell us what you currently have and what its use is at the moment, and we can then offer ideas about some areas that might need an upgrade and other areas that can be left alone.
    • I can agree that it is being used in a small capacity. I worked for a company where their engineers still used XP, and when asked why it was because their sensor software wasn't compatible with newer operating systems and the software was discontinued so they couldn't upgrade the software. Given that the sensors were still in use by companies, they had to continue using XP to support the sensor, otherwise the price to the company would have gone into the millions or billions. Our response was simple: Ok, you can keep the XP machine. But we're removing it from the network. "But then it can't access the Internet or folder shares!" Yup, kinda the point. If someone wants to continue using an unsecure OS they can do, I have no problem with that. But it should be isolated. Simple. I had a fight with a guy in the engineering department for weeks before he finally relented. But we digress.   What do I plan on doing to commemorate the anniversary? Nothing. I have fond memories of the OS, but at the end of the day it's just an OS. If I had some time I might see if I could install it on my Raspberry Pi for a laugh. But my reflex memory with today's OS ideas would probably get me frustrated and I'd uninstall it after 5 mins.
