Just get a second drive if you want to play with linux. Back in the day I used to play around with drive resizing and there is a high probability it will end in tears (but then what doesn't?). Besides, another hd = more space for your (totally legal) music, etc.
Anyway, not having a firewall doesn't make you unsafe automatically (as long as you have strong passwords, and everything is patched, and something like fail2ban is stopping bruteforce attempts, and you actually know what you're doing), but it wouldn't surprise me if a lot of them were set up by clueless admins. Exactly. That was kind of the point of my first point (in a sarcastic kind of way).
I'm sorry if you thought I was insulting you, that was not my intent. If you took offense please accept my apology. You'll note the "d:" at the end of the post indicating I'm joking about the geek-peen thing.
Yeah you got me, I only skimmed the first page and then gave up on the article. I'll concede point 3 isn't valid in this case. I still think he's just trying to grab attention to drum up business.
My bad, I should have said "install an SQL server" or maybe if I wanted to be really accurate "Microsoft SQL Server Desktop Engine", I was lazy. Yes I know SQL is a language used by a wide range of products, including a swath of OSS offerings. Now put your geek-peen back in your pants. d:
Just a quick list of stuff I would like to point out:
1. Because everyone knows that a firewall is the end all and be all of security. 2. How do they know they don't have a firewall and not just an open port? 3. Open port != DB server
Litchfield took a look at just over 1 million randomly generated Internet Protocol [IP] addresses, checking them to see if he could access them on the IP ports reserved for Microsoft SQL Server or Oracle's database. 4. Not all DBs are huge corporate DBs. Hell some versions of MS Office install SQL on your computer. 5. Maybe some of them actually need/want to have remote people access them (and they don't know about VPNs(lolz)) 6. Yeah some people should get their shit together
Did Mr. Litchfield crash his BMW and wants a new one? This just smacks of "ZOMG!!! Ur ports are open, give me ur monies and I will fix u!" His company is even linked in the fourth paragraph. Next please.
Wow, thats textbook geek porn, a picture of that article could go in a hypothetical dictionary under the geek porn article. That and Data snogging the Borg Queen came as quite a surprise.
Another alternate layout that I love is A[shift]ZX. Its from Skynet (first game I didn't use the arrow keys on) and I really like how it lets you space your fingers out a bit more thanks to the shift key being larger. WASD and ESDF are nice for the amount of buttons you have available around your fingers. I have rather long spindly fingers so maybe with shorter fingers WASD etc would be more comfortable.
Your all heathens and I'll convert you to the one true layout! d: j/k
The thing the submitter is failing to realize is that the MOAB is so named because it's the "largest" *conventional* bomb. Big explosions are easy with a nuke, its a lot harder with chemical reactions. Point is moot anyway, Russia says they already beat the US with its Father of all Bombs.
1. Verizon is pleased by this outcome.... Bet they had a big office party. There was cake. But you can't have any because no one likes you, says so right here on your file, "Unlikeable".
I can't see much of a difference between them, why are people flipping out like this is the second coming of Christ? Sure, some have less/more weight but WTF is the difference?
And you are still with them why? Drop their @(#$* like its an ebola death monkey (at least those are cute). They provide bad service, poor support, and your constituency still probably aren't happy. I can't belive you cant get a cheaper service all in one. Throw some traffic shaping on it so your P2P wankers don't flood everyone else and you should be good to go. I bet you'll save the college money.
$30 monthly comcast fee * 1000 oppressed students = $30,000 a month for service. Start talking to real ISPs in the area.

Wait, what? We are talking about taking stem cells from fat and turning them into nerve cells. Where does tinkering with the DNA we are passing on to our offspring come into the picture? If it doesn't affect that, its not doing anything to our future generations.
On the lighter side, at least the US has plenty of these stem cells. McDonald's is the savior of the world! [gag]

I went and skimmed the actual review and found this little gem at the bottom:

Yeah I should have realized it was pointless and just hoped no one noticed. Looks like I might have been in the clear anyway. [shrug]

On and before anyone grammar nazi's me (among other things) that should be "installs a SQL server".

Seriously, "Omron Corporation" sounds like something out of a bad video game. Now to figure out what kind of bad video game and what they (really) do.
