    Well I gotta try BSD Airtools then, because Airsnort on recent hardware and firmwares just doesn't cut it anymore..

    Oh no ! You would've lost a 40$ game after only 2 years of fun !

    Go to the movies and get a 20$ popcorn, that'll last you for long.

    But doesn't bsd-airtools require as many weak packets as, say, Airsnort ?
    Did you use anything like Reinji to "help" the access point spit out weak packets?
    I'm not saying WEP is hard to crack, but I'd rather play at home with my Xbox than bothering with WEP cracking and packet reinjection hehe..

    Yeah, a million packets to crack wep.
    With 5 years old shitty hardware and firmwares maybe. The last AP I tested gave me ONE weak packet after 6 million packets, so I wouldn't count on it.

    You just illegally made use of technology patented by me; toaster jokes

    Never mind the fact that mine is crappier than you, that they're not really related, you still owe me 99$ per time you make a toaster joke!

  7. Except for toasters... on An ID Number for Everything · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Since they're already identified by their own unique IPv6 address, they don't need another barcode!

  8. Re:Pressure = opportunity on Razor Blade Games? · · Score: 1

    There is a company in Montreal (Can't remember the name) that calls itself a "Virtual casting agency". They have many many 3d models of characters, and you can mix them together to get different ones..
    Their goal is to sell licenses to game makers, and eventually movie makers, when their 3d models are of a good-enough quality...

    A Pentium M 1.4 ghz != Pentium 4 1.4ghz That price doesn't seem to be bad..

    That would be a DMCA violation...but they are over it I guess.. The other day, I was wondering if it was legal to crack your own passwords in USA, for security checking ?

  13. Re:Huh? on Perl Modules as RPM Packages · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I find it practical to have everything on the system as the same type of packages. It makes it easier to manage dependencies and updates...

  14. Re:perl with RPM lovin' ? on Perl Modules as RPM Packages · · Score: 5, Funny

    It's more like:
    # rpm -Uvh myperl.rpm
    warning: libsomeshit.so not installed
    # rpm -Uvh myperl.rpm someshitlib.rpm
    warning: libXML is missing
    # rpm -Uvh myperl.rpm someshitlib.rpm libxml.rpm
    warning: mozilla is missing

    Then you go berserk. You mirror rpmfind, rpm -Uvh *.rpm, end up with multiple versions of crap in different places, and corrupt the UNIVERSE.

  15. Re:IM on Unix in Workplace on FCC Lifts AOL IM Limits · · Score: 2, Informative

    The answer to it all:

    SSH, irssi, screen and bitlbee

    Bitlbee runs a lil' IRC deamon on your box, you connect to it, and then, in the #bitlbee channel you can have your ICQ, AIM, Yahoo, MSN contacts..

    You just write
    Theirnick: message
    and it's automagically sent to them...

    BitlBee

    Ok, typing Slashdot posts while on the phone gives bad results. Sorry for the poor wording and formatting, but I think you get the idea..

  20. Jabber on Network Chat as a Tool for Corporate Communications? · · Score: 1

    I work for a middle sized company...about 300 employee's I'd say, but only around 70 of them have computers. I run a Jabber server on an old Proliant with a Pentium Pro 200 mhz at work, and Rival V3 (Freeware, not open) on the Windows 2000 clients. The users know that it's just for instant stuff that doesn't need to be archived, and that they can be read by anyone. The condition to implement was that we could take a look from time to time to see what people are chatting about... We very rarely see personnal stuff, it's more like "Check order #12345 please", and the personnal stuff doesn't account for more than general water cooler chit chat, phone, etc. Overall, it saved long distance calls between Montreal, Toronto, South Carolina, took maybe a day to setup + another day to get clients up, give a lil' bit of training, all running on an old POS server, and it's definitely been worth it.

  21. Re:heh on Addicted Gamers Succumb To Cybercafe Thefts · · Score: 1

    Well there's a suburb close to my city with a very very very high percentage of Asians, so whenever I hang out there I get to see blingish blingish cellphones, and cute Japanese chicks !

  22. Re:heh on Addicted Gamers Succumb To Cybercafe Thefts · · Score: 1

    I often see asian guys putting their cellphones on the table everywhere they go. I think it's just because they tend to buy shiny nokias and install bling bling such as transparent batteries and flashing keyboard that they don't keep their cellphones in their pockets. Gotta show off !
