I've posted on the Veracode Blog about this issue for clarification purposes.

Here's the content:

With regard to the recent Patch Tuesday fix, there has been an issue fixed regarding NTLM Relaying, that has been around for more than eight years.

In 2000, I wrote an advisory about NTLM relaying (CVE-2000-0834). The problem turned out to be significantly larger than I originally suggested in the advisory. The attack extended to other NTLM-based authentications on other protocols and allowed general-purpose credential theft via a man-in-the-middle attack.

The SMBRelay tool was published in 2001 by Sir Dystic of Cult Of The Dead Cow, and that really took it to the next level. The protocol completely fell apart. It kicked off a number of other analyses of the NTLM protocol that finally resulted in this patch. Eight years after itâ(TM)s discovery.

At least they got around to it. Thanks!

Probably the biggest reason why NASA didn't put one in was the rovers were designed for 90 sol missions.

How did they know the dust accumulated within 90 sol days (or less) wouldn't be enough to completely cover the panels? There was no prior evidence to this - so wouldn't it have been fail-safe to have some kind of a dusting mechanism anyway?

It's hard for anyone (even NASA) to think of everthing, and it's usually the small things that fall through the cracks. So here I propose a revolutionary way of cleaning dust off the panels (no wipers needed):

Please see the schematic for a better understanding of the mechanism described herein.

1. A transparent film covers the panels, without hampering their photo-voltaic function.
2. Once ground control decides there's enough dust to be cleaned (could be 90 days or 5 years), they start up the film roll motor that starts pulling in the dusty film in and rolling fresh film out over the panels.
3. The scrapers at the bottom clean the dusty film to their maximum extent, providing the option of recycling the film for repeated uses (reuse=>smaller rolls=>lesser payload).
4. Since (now that we know) the motor doesn't have to be used frequently, this system is not a power drain. It also provides a guaranteed solar life in an atmosphere as dusty as the Mars'. The parts involved may only weigh in at a percentage of the total weight that can be justified by their obvious importance.

This idea invented by Shampoo. I have been repeatedly trying to contact NASA and Dr. Squyres but they refuse to take my calls.

And I will sue you!

A couple of corrections to your corrections. Igaluit has been a city since 2001, and its population is 6184 (according to the 2006 census). You are right that Alert's transient population is around 200, but its permanent population is only 5. You're also right about the distance from Iquluit; I should have stated it was ~2000 km to the South.

First it's $700 billion for mortgage giants and banks. Then its free low credit from the federal reserve.. Now look at what those sneaky Democrats plan to give to the poor and unproductive.

Windows NT (the OS, so called "Hybrid kernel" (what use a microkernel!)) has about 6 million LoC

Linux (The OS, a monolith kernel) has now over 6 million LoC

Windows NT5.1 software system (Windows NT5.1 = XP) is over 40 million lines of code.

Linux software system (Any distribution) can be over 40 million lines of code very easily, the KDE project is alone almost that!

Problem is that we should only count code what are in OS's (Linux vs NT) and not on whole software systems. It is easy to do count for Microsoft own code, without counting all the software what is available for Windows NT. But usually on distributions what use Linux OS, you get counted all the applications from FOSS side too, like Mozilla Firefox, Mozilla Thunderbird, KDE (alone a HUGE!), Gnome etc. All the applications what are compiled for those distributions.

The Comparison is not fair at all.

Not to mention it either but I will => the Moon swinging around the planet is like a big metal detector and asteroid magnet zipping around 24/7 to start these things coming toward us. In fact, the Moon's wide swath constitutes an extension of Earth's gravitational field, and we can look at the other pock-marked planets in our solar system to know what's coming for us.

Operating System is not there to do lots of things for you. It is there to allow you to run all other applications and libraries etc in your computer hardware. And if you even try to mention that there is no difference about monolith kernel and microkernel structure, I say you should first say what is wrong with all these links.

"This is a crucial, but subtle, point. The operating system is that portion of the software that runs in kernel mode or supervisor mode. It is protected from user tampering by the hardware (ignoring for the moment some of the older microprocessors that do not have hardware protections at all). Compilers and editors run in user mode."

First just let me mention that almost all PBS stations are controlled by non-profit corporations who's board appoints their own successors. Any connection with a "democratic" process could be described as a charade - even compared with our corporate media!

Second, the question of how much our U.S. democratic process is a charade ( compared with other democratic nations ) while somewhat subjective is an important question.

Lets just consider the fairly unique nature of U.S. political parties.

QUOTE FROM 1927
"Here in the last generation, a development has taken place which finds an analogy nowhere else. American parties have ceased to be voluntary associations like trade unions or the good government clubs or the churches. They have lost the right freely to determine how candidates shall be nominated and platforms framed, even who shall belong to the party and who shall lead it. The state legislatures have regulated their structure and functions in great detail."

American Parties and Elections,

The tyranny of the two-party system,

IMO: Although the pile of democratic nations has been growing, when the ability of U.S. voters to influence their government is considered, the U.S. voter is close to the bottom of that pile!

Makes me poonwee.

Simple question.

Why should I need to PROVE to anyone that I'm not a thief?

If someone walked up to you on the street and asked to see the receipt for your cell phone, would you show it to them if you had it on you? The moment I purchase something, it is MINE to do with what I please, so long as that use is not in itself illegal (think CDs with sharpened edges being used a la "Odd Job" or something). If buy 10 copies of Spore and use the CDs as coasters, that's for ME to decide.

I realize that this is probably overly simplistic and all, but in the end, isn't the DRM we're talking about here really EA accusing EVERYONE that uses this game of being a thief, and asking us to prove we're not?

Why would I (or anyone else) agree to that?

Sure, people will say something in reply about the license agreement and all, but that's a load of crap. I didn't agree to a license agreement limiting what I do with MY property when I bought it, so they're all facially invalid.. As far as I am aware (IANAL, or even a 2L), a shrinkwrap license has NEVER been held as valid (see http://tinyurl.com/6p59z2 if you're interested).
