I've noticed most people who post help questions on slashdot aren't very informed on the subject of their question.
I think the first link would work in this scenario, the other two involve OS modification, but I wouldn't blame you for saying "that's not how it works" and they need to deploy an image for this scenario, I would hate to be the admin to apply #1 to 30 machines, but for digital tests, this is one of the FIRST things that needs to be solved, possibly before the instructor actually starts considering giving the test digitally... there's always paper if IT is understaffed / skilled:)
This goes beyond money, nobody on slashdot has mentioned that we have an "energy problem" which involves the end of society as we know it once we run out of coal, aka the forecasted "dark age". We've got enough alternatives to coal that not a whole lot of people think that way anymore, but.. I think most would agree our "green" energy, while beneficial, is not maintainable for the energy needs of modern society. Thus, GE's research and potential benefit to the human race outweighs any profit they can incur form this.
If it's not high traffic, your ISP will not call TOS violation, and with speeds nowadays, high traffic means pretty high so it depends, you'd have to get the details that are local to your area.
But I'm surprised nobody has mentioned this, or maybe i just didn't read it... but what you do is register a domain and point it at your home IP, set up a web server at home, open port 80 on your router. There are a million factors to consider here, but one less obvious one is you are probably not a high profile target, so default security will probably suffice, just don't use weak or non-existent passwords.
Nah, if an employeer "hacks"and the court will accept this word in all blissful ignorance my facebook and works around their security and then denies me a job because of it, they a. have to tell me they denied it b. the findings will pail in comparison to the parties I throw when I sue them and win.
I ask how important is it to me, not very = low presentation very = high presentation.
"some importance" is not a reason to dress up, in the case of OP it's not his/her conference, so who cares, I'm just half mockingly saying appearance is way overrated.
In the context of this post I'm choosing not to go into "surprise" dress ups and their effect:)
In regards to a wedding (future, but I'd imagine quite a big deal to myself), i'd probably wear a tux that exceeds the tux of those at the professional conference by a margin of visible quality, the best kind.
Haha, I've been that guy before:) , I seriously could care less if anybody listens to me as long as I know I'm right on a topic. Those conferences aren't for me though, I could care less how well my older peers know how to use a GUI and how determined they are in reading a 200 page manual on shit that's summarized on google in less than a page. Professional IT = group think = enough bs if materialized to bury this planet. Standalone work and consulting is better suited for us. I'm finishing up a gig at corporate, and let me tell you, this place is a joke, the professionalism is a sham for incompetence and ignorance.
There is a however a place, def-con, where wearing a suite has the opposite effect, and everybody just assumes your a tool. It is definitely not the prevail ant culture though.
Or bring in contractors / consultants and have them serve their part and then part ways, the biggest mistake you can make is taking everything on your shoulders, that = loss of life & health. It's a job and work != life.
This is actually the first time I'm hearing of a PSP successor so to say. I don't claim to stay on top of it or care much (PC gamer for life), but I believe this is the first of many pokes by Sony to distribute information about their new system.
The reason you saw the DS, AND 360, AND ps3, AND Wii go on sale this year especially during black friday is cause they are pre End-of-Life. All 3 have publicly known successors in the works by their respective manufacturers.
A hacked PSP sits top 5 in my cool portable things to bring with you list. Let's just say its a one time investment, I think recently they might have created an SD card hack, but it used to be, you had to be guru w a soldering iron or know somebody who was and was willing to mod a "pandora's battery".
Dunno, I remember having a black and white gameboy and later a color, pokemon was fun for a month of two back when it was all the rage, but past that it was back to outside sports and going out and all that goodness. But, that's also where the girls were, so if the girls are playing WoW nowadays (not my cup of tea either), no wonder I don't see kids outside ever anymore.
Actually, the system is probably targeted at kids than a hardcore IT community like slashdot. Kids have a much easier time begging $100 out of their parents than we have justifying on a product we know is not worth it. The PSP was a dud in this sense, the IT community was able to hack it and trick it out, suddenly you had a 5 year old playing kingdom hearts on it and a 25 year old using a custom browser to access pandora, or bring it on a flight to watch movies. Don't believe me? Look no further than to Nintendo and their handhelds and how they didn't pick up with "big" kids.
Oh well, PC gaming, even on a laptop is where it's at. I do like my pandora PSP though...
If the government really wanted to read your email, they've had a decade to freely do so. No, they still can't read pgp encrypted emails without some serious devotion. If you suspect the government is reading your emails, it's only to build a case against you and leaving the country might be smart. Otherwise you have little to worry about. Nobody is dumb enough to store all their personal stuff in their third party mailbox right?:)
When the feds come he can just say the security hole was too big and he tripped and fell in it.
P.S. if he didn't take the credit card numbers, they probably won't convict him or press charges, won't stop overzealous fags from raiding his house and taking his toys though.
Cracking is when he damages the system by making changes or stealing the information, hacking is when he is researching the security hole that company has exposed. But, as mentioned in response to your post, the battle has been lost, and everybody is a hacker that knows a bit of networking and isn't employed as a corporate tool, then the term becomes security expert.
Who was that poor bastard that I read a slasdot article about that was having legal weight put against him for pointing out a companies security flaws to them? It was offshore (USA) possibly Australian in nature?
Based off that experience, you have two perfectly viable options.
1. Tell them without risk to your identity 2. Sell the information to someone who is setup to exploit it
The increase in technology has done nothing for hacking, you are still either a white hat or a black hat, I guess sometimes a greyfag.
Obama's done right and wrong and isn't a saint by a long shot, however it's going to take time to undo the damage bush caused, him leaving office does not immediately end wars and fix global depressions.
US Government or George W. Bush Jr.? We were doin great till that monkey came along.
I still think we need a better system for repealing laws, or perhaps we just need to wait for the god fearing soccer moms who don't know what a browser is to drop out of society. One can argue we'd get a new wave of idiots then, but at least they'd be tech savvy enough to forecast something like this.
Our current government thinks any data in its borders actually belongs to it, and that the person generating it may graciously hold on to it as long as he isn't a pedo or a terrorist or isn't named Julian.
The Patriot Act though... anybody respectable who's had to deal with it, has probably relocated far away from the states. Not to mention people who don't fly anymore because of the TSA and the fact you can't bring toe nail clippers with you on a trip anymore. What's funny is the TSA says http://blog.tsa.gov/2009/05/tsa-urban-legends-nail-clippers.html . Quite contradictory to consumer experience.

It is clearly an invitation to work in the nude.
Sounds like we have a volunteer :)

You obviously don't know what it feels like to have "too much" money. I don't either, no regrets.
Censorship and TOS violations are distinctly different...
That and last I checked, developing censorship systems wasn't free.

That's in place already. Jailbreaking = insta void.

*ring* *ring*
Ethernet to USB adapters aren't new
Neither are external hard drives in the 3 tera range
The processor? Well there's some trade off ;)
I believe they come with card readers also... if not usb solution again.
This is what carrying bags are for too.
If your doing image processing though, then you shouldn't even be considering a tablet for that, that's not what they're for.

He never got on the plane, get your facts straight, sounds like he almost did though, cause German kids are the #1 security threat to this country.

It's a pretty good read.
I can't help thinking how a real criminal would have proxied, and sold the code rather than published it, but to the FBI it's all the same.
When the feds come he can just say the security hole was too big and he tripped and fell in it.
P.S. if he didn't take the credit card numbers, they probably won't convict him or press charges, won't stop overzealous fags from raiding his house and taking his toys though.
