As someone who knew one of the blackwater guys hung from the bridge, I would have to say that you're seriously mistaken. In fact, I would probably have to say that you are so completely ignorant of the subject that you might want to just stop posting so you don't sound like such an asshole.
Your comments are insteresting so I started looking around. Can't name a price but apparently there are digital hydrometers to measure the alcohol and specific gravity. I've seen rigs where guys have drilled holes into the side of either the mash tun or the brewing container and welded a post thermometer so it could sample the active temperature and I'm thinking the same thing could be done with the hydrometer. Hmmm. Might be do able to fashion something into the plastic fermentation vessels as well. No idea what you'd do with glass carboys. Thanks for the idea though, I'm off to buy more electronics now...;)
Heh. Years ago I had to go help a Japanese exchange worker at a govt place and he had Japanese Windows 95 and it was throwing an error. I stood there looking blankly at it and he only knew a couple words of English.
Him: "Can fix?"
Me: "...I don't know what it says."
Him: "Me either."
There was a company from Seattle IIRC that was working with this around 5 to 7 years ago. It's an extremely cool technology though and I was bummed that I never heard anything else beyond that. Glad to hear it's still around.
Hehe. I used to work at a newspaper here in Florida and we had a guy leaving out IT group. As luck would have it he had to take a couple hour trip to a remote site to fix something. Let the fun begin. I spent about three hours individually gift wrapping every single thing in his cubicle for him in newspaper, nice and neatly. It looked like Christmas. Pens, coins, books, chair, monitor, picture of the wife...routers...tacks.. name it... The look on his face was the best. I've got a couple pics but I really don't feel like slashdotting my poor little PII 350 linux server.:)
And if the exploit wasn't publicly known? Then what, leave it up to the ISP to decide if you could have prevented it? And even if you let them cut the connection, what are you supposed to do? Buy Norton or whatever and have them snailmail you the latest definitions? I just see this creating a metric shit ton of problems.
1.laptop calls home
2.software sends the ip home
3.FBI are waiting and call AOL
4.AOL looks up logon of person that logged on with such and such ip...
5.Queue music from Cops
You mac address is useless in this scenario as it can be changed and unless you're on the same subnet on as the thief.......
I had two guys in my office that both had CCNA and we were discussing the going rate for the area and one of them mentioned $11/hour. I about laughed in his face and told him there's no way I'd take that for what I do and the other guy chimes in with "Ummm...that's what I started at right out of college.." (with CCNA) Of course this is also the guy that wanted to put hubs everywhere in our office and claimed at ALL our networking devices (switches etc...) were just hubs. *blink*
Yes, but he's saying that more is needed. What if the ping is good and the server on the box is down? Either way a good 10 or 15 lines of python socket code would solve both issues.
I had to threaten to sue them for harrassment thier last 3 calls. I don't even know how many times we asked to speak to a manager. They told us that it takes 30 days for you to be put on their do not call list after you tell them, but they were calling us up to 3 times a day. Hard to believe that someone that WANTS your service would treat you that way. Just, amazing.

I still crack up thinking about it.
Ok, that explains the sword, but the elf is on his own....
Or they make JD stronger knowing the filter will remove some of the alcohol..... (I don't claim to know... just throwing that out there... )
I didn't know the touch typist's esc key was a different distance than other typist's keys... :)
Yes, but it's much more fun seeing your wife beating the crap out of the neighbor in Soul Caliber to let off that stress. ;)

I was concentrating on your last statement and forgot your comment about downloading the definitions....
And if the exploit wasn't publicly known? Then what, leave it up to the ISP to decide if you could have prevented it? And even if you let them cut the connection, what are you supposed to do? Buy Norton or whatever and have them snailmail you the latest definitions? I just see this creating a metric shit ton of problems.
If that was the case then they would have already learned from their own.
This specific one, no.... I mean come on, he was using AOL... *grin* But seriously, just because one isn't smart doesn't mean they're all stupid.
It's very easy to change MAC addresses.
1.laptop calls home 2.software sends the ip home 3.FBI are waiting and call AOL 4.AOL looks up logon of person that logged on with such and such ip... 5.Queue music from Cops You mac address is useless in this scenario as it can be changed and unless you're on the same subnet on as the thief.......
Now THAT's insightful! ;)
Anyone can drive a car too, that doesn't mean there aren't a bunch of idiots out there that don't know what they're doing...

That's no different than them picking up CD burning software when they don't have a CD burner. User education.
then get off slashdot, write one yourself and quit wondering why no one ELSE has done it.
boy if that doesn't sound like a sales pitch....

Unless they call you 25 times in one week after you tell them to stop like AT&T decided to do to us.
3 to 6 rounds per spammer? You sir need to go back to the shooting range and practice! :)
