    If you buy today you can also get a free bottle of snake oil.
    This is no ordinary snake oil, this is certified audio aray quality(tm), it was extracted from the snake in the same direction as the cable is labelled while a choir chanted 'OneBornEveryMinute'.

  4. high quality replies on Ask Slashdot: What's the Harm In a Default Setting For Div By Zero? · · Score: 1

    I would just like to congratulate everyone on the quality of the replies.
    With currently 644 comments and much utilisation of the words 'then' and 'than', everyone has managed to use them correctly.

  7. Re:Is it Linux's fault ? on IPMI Protocol Vulnerabilities Have Long Shelf Life · · Score: 1

    HP have recently released new firmware in May 2014 for their vintage (think DL Gen 5/G1 blades) iLO v1 and v2 after network scans searching for heartbleed vulnerable systems crashed the management processor/BMC. Ah, just reset the device from the OS with the HP windows/linux hponcfg tool, nope, doesn't work as it can no longer talk to the crashed management processor.
    The best bit is the fix for these 'remote support' devices, send someone to pull the power cord and wait for residual power to dissipate. For blades you can trip the fuse via telent to the OA.
    Search 'iLO heartbleed' for the HP advisory.

    Here I am sitting on the surface of a sphere, looking out at how huge the universe is, wow man, that looks big...so infinite.

    Maybe I'm sitting on a planet, hey, what if I was sitting on the nucleus of an atom, wow that universe sure looks big, much like before, but still infinite.

    Hey but what's that over there, inside those protons, hmm, they sure are small, maybe I could go sit on one of those and see if the universe looks any bigger, or maybe I got to find something smaller, infinitely smaller. Wow, infinity is so big and so small all at the same time
