The classic example: In summer, more ice cream is sold. Also in summer, crime rates increase. Therefore, according to this logic, either criminals buy lots of ice cream, or eating ice cream causes criminal behaviour.
No. In this case, sales and criminal behaviour are a correlation; they are happening at the same time. The causation would be the similar factor: summer. Summer temperature CAUSES people to buy more ice cream, and vacation/lots of tourists/people gone off to the cottege/etc CAUSES more criminal behaviour due to better opportunity.
Good luck finding the Tin case limited edition now. If you're in Toronto, check Planet Hobby in the basement of Square One.
There will be a non-limited Special Edition, and a movie only edition.
As always, check http://www.animeondvd.com for all of your anime on dvd needs. Not affiliated, just a plug from a happy fan.
On outlook (even through exchange MAPI!) to view SMTP headers open the mail, and in the mail windows, select 'options' from the 'view' menu. The headers will be displayed on the resulting dialog box, amoung other things.
I think the assumption here is that the thief is using the ISP account that is already on the machine; i.e. func's. Therefore, it should be no problem for func to call up and say 'who's dialed into my account right now, cuz it sure isn't me?'
Sorry, chief. 1: This particular patch didn't require a reboot. 2: this particular patch wasn't required UNLESS YOU'RE USING INDEX SERVER. The five second work around was to remove the script mapping from IIS that would pass the request to the index server stuff, which is where the problem actually lived.
The other thing to remember is that Exchange is NOT an email server. Exchange is a corporate groupware server. If you're not running a whack of people on an intranet who want to use Outlook for shared calanders, contacts, etc etc, you really don't want to use exchange.
Holy CRAP I'm incoherent this morning.
Microsoft EXCHANGE is a big ole' relational database (as opposed to being an OLE relational database) which will use all available RAM. When other programs want some, EXCHANGE will relinquish some.
However, our intrepid IT support person was also COMFORTABLE IN THE KNOWLEGE THAT THEY WERE RUNNING A FUCKING VIRUS SCANNER ON THE MAIL SERVER, thus removing any and all possibility of users receiving nastyness through their email, or accidently propegating it should it come in through another vector.

This is normal behaviour, it is by design, and my usual response is 'if you don't want your programs using that RAM, why is it in your box?'
Hell, I just finished reading Joe Halderman's Forever Peace, so I half expect Adobe to plant some ringers in some of the demonstrations to make sure things turn violent.:-)
And adobe will spin the fact that the protests continue to point out that the 'hacker community' are a bunch of hippie anarchists who can't even hold up their end of the bargin, and explain how 'disappointed and saddened' they are that they had to cancel the talks because 'the hacker community just won't listen to reason, and can't understand why what Dmitry did is wrong.'
Or in words that might hit a bit closer to home for a lot of people on this board: somebody set you up the bomb. All your PR are belong to Adobe.
Or more to the point: j00 g07 0VVn3d!
Russian law dictates that any Russian citizen has legal rights to one backup copy of any digital media he/she is sold. Dmitry's program was designed to allow Russians to exercise their legal right. Technically, these copy protection schemes are illegial in Russia.
Oops.
If I can brake it, it isn't encryption. It's obfuscation.
Can't help but notice, though, that they didn't also test against SCSI chains using hardware RAID 5M
Folks, always remember that you get what you pay for.
Another Xenogears game? Shit. Now I have to buy a PS2.
Congrats, Sony, you just proved once again that a good story will sell crap hardware. As it should be.
Donkey Kong is so named because Myamoto-san's Japanese-English dictionary had 'donkey' listed as a good translation for 'stubborn.' And I believe they thought that 'kong' was a standard term for 'big ape' as opposed to a proper name.
Hence, "Stubborn Large Ape" is translated as "Donkey Kong."
There are two Final Fantasy anthologies for Playstation 1: the first one has FF V (never seen in US) and VI (3 for the SNES) which are direct ports; 16 bit all the way. The only changes are that there are intro and I think outro FMVs. Everything else is the same as the SNES/SuperFamicoms.
The second anthology has Final Fantasy IV (2 in the US) only retranslated, not hacked down, and with some other improvements. The other title in that set is Chrono Trigger, another widely-regarded classic from the SNES days.

Run task manager. Select 'processes.' Open the view menu. Select 'choose columns.' Activate 'thread count.' Then look for a process with 100 threads.
At least, from what I've read about the worm. My firewall's been turning these away left, right, and centre.
Yeah. It's not at all like that ramen.worm; didn't find many unpatched redhat boxes. Oh, wait....
It's not clueless NT admins, it's clueless admins. Idiocy is platform-agnostic.
NT sysadmins who know their shit are on Microsoft's Technical Bulletin list. Because these are hotfixes, they don't go on the public site, because they're 'install only if it fixes a problem you actually have.'
Holy Budda. The Linux/Slashdot community has just become a 'great nation;' it's advanced enough to discriminate against random people based on their origin.
This is one of several posts trying to insinuate (or flat out claim) that being in Redmond is somehow damning. It frightens me. The mistakes of others indeed...
Why do I have a sudden image of a rainstorm, a muddy road, and a wrought iron gate. As I look up the gate, I can make out words: "Arbeit macht Frei (wieleicht Bier) Software"

Yeah, cuz everybody knows that if only it were MySQL, a quick reboot would fix everything.

I just couldn't get into vagrant story. But Xenogears... now there be a classic Square game. Look for the soundtrack, then look for the Creid album.
