A reasonable person doesn't watch something if he knows it's going to offend him.
I can deal, for a short while, with this relatively simple issue. I can't deal with 21 serious bugs while Mozilla takes their sweet time to fix that one issue.
Why the hell did they pull it? Firefox 16.0 fixes 24 bugs, of which 21 are considered important. They're advising people to downgrade to THAT version because of ONE minor privacy issue. Seriously? Why don't they urge people to upgrade to 16.0 and start pushing out 16.0.1 as fast as they can?
If someone is bruteforcing your password, they can make no assumptions. (alphabet size)^(number of spaces)
This assumes the minimal and maximum password length is the same, i.e. there are no passwords less than the "number of spaces".
The total size of the keyspace is actually:
(alphabet size)^(0) + (alphabet size)^(1) + (alphabet size)^(2) +....... + (alphabet size)^(number of spaces - 1) + (alphabet size)^(number of spaces).

Not blocked via DNS nor via IPv6. None of the injuctions seem to cover IPv6. I'm actually wondering if BREIN knows IPv6 exists.
Read the blog post I linked, the notes at the bottom (emphasis mine):
NOTE: As with previous versions of Windows, we will also have an edition of Windows 8 specifically for those enterprise customers with Software Assurance agreements. Windows 8 Enterprise includes all the features of Windows 8 Pro plus features for IT organization that enable PC management and deployment, advanced security, virtualization, new mobility scenarios, and much more.
You don't need a search warrant to ring the bloody doorbell and ASK about the stolen property. But even that was too much bother.
Funny though, the police had absolutely no problems breaking into my house simply because my downstairs neighbor told the police I was away for a week and my cats were left on their own. I actually was away for 2 days and my parents fed them.
Ah, that helps. I only read the WebSense analysis hoping to read some details there. Apart from mentioning WordPress there isn't much in there how they actually got in.
Why do they always focus on the crap that's left behind when they analyses these things? I want to know how they managed to get that stuff on those servers so I can check my own. Was is an old and vulnerable WordPress or was it some 0-day they used?
For some reason they always focus on the effects and not on the causes.
I've been using FreeBSD as a desktop for at least 10 years now. You pretty much have everything a Linux box has, KDE, Gnome, XFCE, Openbox, Windowmaker, whatever you want.
Only lately things aren't going too good. Mainly because Gnome and XFCE have decided to solely depend on Linux' udev which FreeBSD doesn't have. Sure we could 'add' udev to FreeBSD but why would we want to do that when we have a perfectly working devfs that's better and older then the latest Linux fad.
"A newly discovered installer for the Duqu malware includes an exploit for a previously unknown vulnerability in the Windows kernel that allows remote code execution."
It's an exploit embedded inside a Word document. You can't get more local then that.
This might be due to the skin's reaction. It's not linear and above a certain voltage dielectric breakdown will occur. It's the same effect you get when you have 2 points and you increase the voltage between them. At some point the air between the points will breakdown, it'll go from an insulator to a conductor, and you get a spark or even an arc.
It's also possible the current will 'stick' to the outside of the body instead of traveling through it. More or less like a Faraday cage. And as long as the current doesn't pass across the major heart muscles you'd be relatively "ok".
But yes, it's not an exact science. It's a bit hard to find volunteers for this:D
It's not the voltage that kills. It's the amount of current across the body. You can feel 1mA and 60mA AC across the heart is usually fatal.
But because the human body does have quite a bit of resistance you'd still need a sufficient voltage to have an effect. Current = Voltage / Resistance (Ohm's Law).
In the Netherlands we have a adage that seems fitting, "De put pas dempen als het kalf al verdronken is.".
Which roughly translates to "Closing the well after the calf already drowned.".

That's nice. Still no reason to pull 16.0 as it could just as easily have taken longer.

It obviously only works if you are running IPv6.

For some reason a lot of sites seem to miss it. There are four versions, Windows 8, Windows 8 Pro, Windows 8 Enterprise and Windows RT. http://windowsteamblog.com/windows/b/bloggingwindows/archive/2012/04/16/announcing-the-windows-8-editions.aspx
If it doesn't run AmigaOS it's not an Amiga. Heck, AmigaOS 4.1 was released not too long ago. http://www.amigaos.net/

I work to live, I don't live to work.
But used HAL for hotplugging. It now seems to use udev, uevent, udisks, upower. What other uthings will they come up with?
The stability of FreeBSD also referrers to it's API/ABI. Something both Windows and Linux seem to be seriously lacking.
Use freebsd-update(8). It's been available since 6.4. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=freebsd-update&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=FreeBSD+8.2-RELEASE&arch=default&format=html
You do realize SMP support had been significantly reworked in 5.0 (released in 2003)? And it has seen some impressive improvements since.
