my friends and i have each reserved kart for november, and when it comes out, we're going to install openvpn on each of our linux nat/router boxes and do an ethernet bridge type thing -- it will pipe all the broadcast traffic and such across a virtual link, and we'll actually see each other's remote machines in the arp table. hopefully our cubes will talk to each other. fortunately we're on the same isp so the latency shouldnt be much higher than if we were in the same room.
i wonder if you'll be able to hook more than 2 cubes together. we play so much kart where i live (since '92!) that, for an extra 200 bucks a head (99-cube, 50-game, 50-used-tv) i could almost cost justify it. almost. cept its a video game. i'd still spend it, though.
anyways. i heard a nasty rumor that you can only play these over a local lan. they wont go into the internet. if that's true, we're going to look at using openvpn to bridge our lans together. wonder how it'll perform with slightly larger latency.
Whoever it was that said "you cant grep a dead tree" was dead-on, in my opinion. I'm 24 and have stumbled through maybe 1/4 of a college education, so take that to mean I have no well defined research skills. As such, if I can't google for the information I want, then it doesnt exist to me. My eyes are probably 3/4 shot by this point, but I'll (not gladly) sit here reading on the crt for 8 to 10 hours, scattered with hefty half hour breaks throughout. To me, the web/whatever will be ready for prime time officially when the default assumption is that the dead tree version of whatever has already been converted to digital. With google, I get my instant gratification. As long as I can remember the slightest detail to whatever it is I am trying to remember, odds are severely in my favor I can filter out the noise until I have my answer. Last week I was able to google for a song we sang in 4th grade -- the lyrics were all Hewbrew and I was able to find the lyrics phonetically! I agree that all the major news sources seem very biased. That's why I like slashdot, which still has the sketch factor of a corporate bias. My take on it, the more typos and cursing, the closer you are to the truth:D
think about it.. your dns server caches the entries it gets back, but now we can make scripts that check sequentially all the way up! crash your ISPs name servers, or crash a root server for the prize! remember kids, take down 2/3 + 1 of the root servers and it's not running on spec anymore!
this should make troubleshooting dns records as a netadmin much more fun with all those glorious false positives... guess that means i'll have to learn how to spell finally!
Something doesnt add up reading that article. Hey single mom your daughter steals music. Oh, ok. Gee, thought it was ok cause we paid a service fee that let us. Hell, here's two thousand bucks I had kicking around. Hey, my daughter even feels bad about it even.
I dunno, I just felt like they arent real people after reading this article.
i blocked port 135. it was draconian. i didnt care. my network didnt work with it enabled. some things like privacy you have to honor at all times, but other things like access... well, those arent as important when you're in a crisis.
on the flip side, i feel bad for anyone with an isp that does nat. first day i re-dhcp to get a working, natted connection is the day i go shopping for a new isp for home. *sigh* wish my own service worked at home:D
here's what i do... feel free to tear it apart if its actually a bad idea...
lets say i have 10 machines. for each of them, i just memorize an easy to remember 8 letter password. there's also one nasty long password stub that i have thats like 12 characters. i remember just one of those, and after i do the first 8 of the machine specific, simple password, i append the big nasty one, and that's the password for the machine. if someone gets one of them, i know i have however long it takes to brute force crack an 8 letter password to get the other machines.
not that i see what the big deal is -- isnt a password of "i like to eat pumpkin pie" just as strong a password as "sj34##@dj3"? (roughly; dont do the actual math as i know they are different. all i mean is that they're both good enough most of the time)
hi, nh kid living in an actual city here... just like to point out those are like... really small. did it even say how many laptops they're getting? 1.2 million over 800 bucks a laptop is 1500 laptops. the above list adds up to just about 100k people, so how many of those are 7th graders? 1.5 percent?
Yes. It implies you were smart enough to get ipv6 running in mid 2003, presumably indicating you are educated enough to secure the rest of your ipv4 network.:D
Also, If you start creating sub-folders under deleted items to categorize your trash, you need professional help.
I find that with the amount of spam I get for some unknown reason, it's completely impossible for my operating system to manage that number of deleted spams per session. So, I hash all my deleted spam into/deleted/a-m and/deleted/n-z0-9. otherwise, i'll delete the current batch, and after about the 35,000th spam, it'll freeze up. pretty soon i'll need three hash directories. anyways, cheers. mike@digitalsushi.com
I have my home directory (on a redhat box). the root level of my homedir is my crap directory. dangerously, the organized data lives in there in directories. for example, i have an Organized directory. in there, i have sub directories of different types. i wont go into how that is because i'll change my mind about it once i write it up, and i dont feel like redoing it right now. so, everything just ends up in my home directory until i sort it.
i wish my view of the system was more abstracted. i'd rather have my homedir as/, and then have a/system/libs/stuff,/system/configs, and all that good stuff. either that or just not see it period. speaking of period, i guess it'd be ~/.system instead of ~/system. I hate organizing my stuff, too. It's arguable how much easier it is to find once I organize it, if my mind one day decides that it should be "schoolwork" and another day "development", et cetera. i guess organizing your piles of junk is like your fingerprint... everyone's is different.
another thing i wish, though, is that the filesystem were more... i dont know what to call it. but i wish i could store more meta data about my files. i wish my filesystem had a comments field, and i wish that doing a directory listing would spit out file attributes like dimensions, content length, number of words, and whatever other stuff i could glean by hand. i just want it to all show up. hell, i wish i could do a recursive directory listing based on file type, not file name. and not based on the extension... cause who says i use extensions? (of course i do, what are you, daft?!) unless its a text file. unix spoiled me and i dont put extensions on those.
heck. i wish there was a way to just export my entire home directory with everything i said into one giant 22 gigabyte compressed file that i can save somewhere, drop into a new computer, and just be up and running again just like that.
i host twosites that use a crappy bash CGI that I wrote... although they do the first 90% of the job, is anyone aware of any comic specific CRM packages available? I've been trying to teach myself enough PHP to finish a half written phpnuke module I wrote that does the same as the bash above, but I mean... c'mon. Admitting I wrote a CGI in bash is embarassing. Help a brother out with a handy hyperlink!

if you're complaining about it, you should consider getting a second upstream so that your network doesnt have a single point of failure
