Correct, and getting a Preimage attack that generates a useful binary that collides with the original and has the same size would still be extremely difficult even if a more broad preimage attack was known.
We do lines all over the western hemisphere and the average guaranteed install date is 30-45 days from order to working line. That's when there's no issues, if you have a building that requires proof of insurance or trade recognition it can easily take several months to get the paperwork filled and the lawyers to sign off.
It largely depends on your LEC (local exchange carrier) IE the people who own the physical lines. With AT&T they have the attitude "yeah we're the phone company, what are you going to do about it?". With CLEC's (like COVAD) they simply don't have enough techs to do installs that quickly.
Actually in that way the non-declawed ones are more useful because there are drivers that will decrypt their output and strip the serial sending the barcode data followed by a CR/LF (Windows, I assume the Linux drivers just send a CR).
Huh, the thing being scanned is NOT a creative work, it is a fact and therefore deserves no protection under copyright law and hence not protected under the DMCA. I believe the guys behind the Cuecat tried to claim it was at one point and got shot down pretty quickly.
Did you not notice the quotes around encryption, I know it was no more useful than ROT13 but if I remember correctly the company made some DMCA claims when people started posting about declawing.
No, the 9th district is just VERY large and so has many cases reviewed by SCOTUS, SCOTUS overturns the majority of cases they hear and hence to someone not analyzing the data it appears that the 9th gets overruled a lot. There has been plenty of analysis done on the subject, I suggest you check Google =)
Now I will have ZERO problem pirating SPORE or any other EA title. In fact I wasn't going to bother with SPORE given the lackluster reviews, but I'm firing up Azurus as we speak to grab it just to spite the arrogant f'ers.
Perhaps not but I don't think my company is atypical, we have people on both the East and West coast with people starting as early as 5am EST and people working as late as 7-8PM PST and by then our partner in India has their early people starting. Sure we have a reduction in usage on the weekends, but that's when we do weekly backups, patching and other maintenance, etc.
How much spare capacity do they have in that payroll cluster to deal with failed boxes? Is that more than they had before virtualizing? If so what is the cost of the additional hardware and maintenance vs the cost of running the previous boxes at idle for 25 days x 12 months x number_of_years in replacement cycle? For me electricity (even including AC units, UPS's, etc) is such a small part of a boxes operating cost (less than 10% over 3 years) that it's not worth it to shut them down.
Since my budget was $0 I got to improvise. It was a miscellaneous duty and they figured I could spend the time looking by hand when an old restore was needed, recent restores were done from snapshots on the Filer. The first time it took me 3+ hours to find all the tapes needed for a restore I decided to work smart instead of hard.
Yeah, the DoD machines ARE on the Internet, how do you think researchers from around the country get access to them to perform experiments? Now, classified work has to be done from a secured terminal either onsite or at a connected millnet site, but the unclassified interface IS available for many DoD computers from the Internet(2).
It wasn't in the backup set, it was on my laptop. The only loss if the DB went tits-up was that I would have to go back to hand searching the boxes, it's not like deleting a row in the DB destroyed the tapes =)
Yeah, it's more because we have experience with people breaking things and us getting the blame. As an example at a previous employer we had a CEO with ADD, while sitting in a meeting in our training room he got fidgety and plugged the patch cable from one seat into the popup port at another seat. This caused a loop which brought down the entire C-row of the company. Luckily we used good switches so the problem was recognized by all the other switches and they stopped talking to the one that was going crazy thus saving the rest of the company, but until I figured out what the problem was I had 5 very angry executives yelling at me because they couldn't work.
I declawed one with the software patch that stripped the 'encryption' to use it as a normal barcode scanner. It was great for a little inventory problem I had at work. I made an Access DB that kept track of LTO tapes by scanning a label on each box and tape. That way when I had to do a restore from tapes on hand all I had to do was pull up its label in the DB and it gave me the box and row number.
Funny, but I was referring to the fact that you can have two roads that appear to be parallel but are really separated by a hundred or more feet vertically =)
That's one of the motivations behind our Intranet portal with a communities module, to encourage communications and keep conversations within the company private. I really hope we don't go through what you experienced because it would be a lot of wasted money and effort (money) if some clueless PHB tries to lock it down because they didn't like something they read.
Since I didn't work a frontline user facing job at my current employer going out drinking has been one of the biggest ways for me to connect at a personal level with a good chunk of my user community. Basically if you aren't a bigwig or a social drinker you're probably just a lookup field in our ticket system as far as I'm concerned. These types of connections help the business function better as people tend to work better with those they have a reason to like. So while you might think of planning this weekends party as a waste of time I think of it as a way to connect with my users and increase the businesses productivity =)
The first thing I think of when I hear increased efficiency is not "oh great now my GBIC's will save a few mW of power" it's "that's great for international communications". The reason is a big part of the cost of an undersea cable is the boosting equipment and the weight and bulk required to provide power to them.
I think of Bethesda as the ID of the RPG world, they make nice engines but poor games. Unlike with ID engines it doesn't take buying another title to get a good game though, you just download the fan-made content.
Dude, this is the third out of cycle MS has released in the 4 years since they went to the patch tuesday standard and it was because it was found by reverse engineering an in-the-wild worm. Also you might notice that Windows 2008 and Vista are lower priority because security improvements in default ACL's means that this exploit is only exploitable by authenticated users, not by anonymous bind, it's not like MS isn't doing things to improve security including reducing the attack surface of 2008 with Server Core.

mea culpa. I misread CAFC as California and hence 9th. Please excuse my momentary stupidity.

Other than a separate DR cluster which is going to be physically separate servers why would you want to use more than one ESX cluster?

No need to solder it, here's a site with drivers for just about every OS including a JAVA decoder if your OS doesn't have a specific driver =)

If 3D map technology is ever perfected it will be not from Redmond but from Carnegie Mellon. If you've ever been to Pittsburgh you'd understand why =)
