No, mandatory community service does not make them communists..
It makes them slavers. Either you do it out of your own volition, or you are coerced/forced to. That's either indentured servitude or plain ol slavery.
A jury got OJ Simpson on kidnapping charges cause he told them to "stay still". Time is immaterial. You force us to do something, it's slavery.
I may know Linux more, but Im very aware of PowerTools. I also have the reg-dumps to do the same.
The problem is they dont stick. If I reboot, they may disable autorun, or it may run again. You might as well flip a coin. I've yet to find how to make sure it sticks.
As for scanners, they evolved from shell scripts that ping, udp-ping and tcp-ping the target based upon switches. I remember hacking a rudimentary one together on a heavily locked-down network. It got it's job done, and nobody was the wiser.
Making your own tools also helps when you are on windows machines that find "hacktools" as viruses and refuse to let them run. Of course, that's where a packer comes in.
I have some services running on my local network. Namely, I have XDMCP, and PulseAudio publicly announcing every X time that services are being offered. Samba sits alone, as does ssh and a few other apps.
The key: Apache has no "announce" option to the backbone to the net, nor will it ever do that. Announcing is for private networks in which total announced messages will be negligible.
That said, how are we supposed to figure out what services are being offered and where? Many sites offer http:80, http:8080, http:8000, ftp:21, and others. It'd be one thing if a computer had an announce service that would tell you what services are where (say,:65535) but they dont. It'd be a whole other idea of "computer trespass", but there's no sort of announcement.
Linux and Mac both can stop "bad thumbdrives", although I dont know if you can disable the auto-run part of the windows software. I've succeeded on cd's, but the problem still affects floppies (yeah.), HD's, and thumbdrives. I run a VBox session of WinXP when I need to run that windows-only software that doesnt run correctly in Wine, so I can also test reg-edits that may bork my system.
In the Linux world, you just dont have permissions to exec mount, or to use FUSE. There. Solves that problem. Better yet, I'll remove the usb-storage so that it's in/root , so the system cant even see it in/lib/modules/kernel_version/. ..I can always "insmod/root/2.6.26-blabla/usb-storage.ko" if for some reason I need it.
Im unsure as to the Mac way of things on the gui side, but I suspect it is similar to that of FreeBSD and Linux. There's probably an admin interface with clicky-boxes to turn on and off rights.
You send in a line of continual rocket kbots and small cheapies to harass and destroy mexxes and solars. While you do that, you set up a perimeter, prepare missile defences against aircraft and later on nukes, and tech up fast and build what you need.
By the time you cloak and get good radar coverage up, you should have a bertha or 2 for suppression and "OMG BERTHA".
One of the fun strategies is to play with cloakers and attack from both sides using either MERLs (medium range missile launchers) and artillery. They have no idea where it's coming from until they cut their forces in two trying to find the source... Then you send your big guys through the unguarded front door.
However, I dont think that anybody pays attention because it's in a transcript inside the courthouse. It's not online, and if you want a copy of it, you need to go there publicly. And then you're on candid camera, courtroom style.
That'll change quick though when crooks realize they have all the information they need to dupe an identity right there in the court of law. Then it'll all be redacted unless you provide your information (so we can watch you).
I post torrent links so that those who WOULD HAVE bought the game will not do so now. And those torrents are undoubtedly cleaner than the "good store bought" ones.
Im sure there's plenty in real life you could be doing right now, rather than wasting in front of a monitor, or worse, stealing a bosses time from them!
Fair enough.. I'll give you that on cases of people ordering lattes. Lattes tend to scorch if you heat the milk over 180-185F. We're direly warned about that, not only for taste, but people Just Dont Expect lattes to be near-boiling. In fact, we dont even go over 180F unless a customer explicitly says XYZ temperature. That's the Just Say Yes policy. Then, after making it, I hand it to them "Grande bla bla BOILING (or burning or Burn hazard) Latte".
Now, hot coffee... Hmm.. Coffee is made to be very hot. It's like at McD. It's like that at Dunkin, and Burger King, and White Castle. Everybody knows Hot Coffee is Hot, hence the name. You add cream, it gets cooler. Our Bunn coffee maker regularly registers 202F as the ambient boiler temp on the coffee maker. Also, when one grabs it, you can feel the heat through the cup, the sleeve, and if you double-cup- the second cup. Our coffee's hot.
Now, as to superheating.. wont happen. Inside the Bunn warming boxes are welds that have somewhat jagged edges, so they encourage bubbles and surface area. The cups also have a strong seam alongside the cup that would also cause nucleation line. One hazard from th seam is if your drinkhole lines up with the seam... if it does, you now have brown-dribble shirt. I hate that:(
Now, as for specific fields, that's understandable if somebody doesnt know something... Take a look at any coffee cup. HOT! Scalding Hazard! CAREFUL! I could understand if you couldnt read, but just feeling the exterior of the cup is enough cue to watch out. After all, I once witnessed an accident where a ass-hole customer got the bright idea to squeeze the hot coffee cup out of my hands (he was running late and taking it out on us). Well, he squeezed hard ad I let go. Awww... some 1st degree burn. I had a damp towel which I handed to him and got him another coffee. I reported it, but he didnt want to: he knew he was being an ass and he knew it.
Nah.. I played around with Sup:Com and Spring, and both require too much resources to play.
I can literally take a 8 year old junker and install an image of Win98, daemontools, and copy TA over to the HD. 30 minutes, tops. The thing requires the graphical hardware of a Rage3D card (eg: damn near non-existent). All one needs is a good amount of ram to play any sort of big maps. When I say big, try 64 by 64 screens at 1024x768. Then there's the 128x128 maps ^_^. Theyre unstable to the TA engine as you cant even target past 42 screens distance (on the diagonal).
Playing 6 other players on a 7 island metal-only map (the whole map is made of resource, unlike special spots in most other maps) with 1000 max units per side means you see at any one time raids of 200 ships with aerial support... Then there's the nukes. No starcraft "1 at a time" garbage. If you can afford the drain of 20 nuke plants making continuous missiles, go for it. But Ill nuke you with 1 if you dont build multiple anti-nukes. heh heh heh
---Ah, that's probably it, I don't add anything to my coffee after roasting my own for a few years.
I thought of doing that myself, but the work involved seems too much.. However, I have heard tremendously good things doing it this way though. I'd hate ruining a few pounds getting it right though.
---If I'm reduced to buying coffee out ('reduced' ala Dunkin Donuts, not the good local places) I can usually get them to add a few pieces of ice for me, otherwise it sits in its styrofoam in my cup holder for twenty minutes to get to a drinkable temperature.
Usually, if I order coffee out, I try to go Sbux or another independent that offers french presses for about 3$. If you go Sbux, you can get any coffee (even the Black Apron, which is about 30$/lb) in french press. I'd rather have that, and know the process makes fresh great brew. We also have indie's that I go to also that make some rather damned good french brews.
I've also heard about the Clover System, which is some sort of automated french press. Ive heard of a store in the Indianapolis area have one, but no Sbuxes. The buzz on the Sbux rumor site is we're getting them, and soon. This is something to look forward for, from what I've heard. It's already on the registers and ready for us to start ringing up, but no word as of yet....
---If I take it straight out of the pot, I get burns that last 2-3 days. Different biochemistry I suppose.
Im just used to drinking it very hot.. Could be just me ^_^
To unlock coffee's flavor, you need HOT water. About 190-200F. It doesnt need to stay at that, because about 60% of our clientèle has some sort of milk additives. After that, it's more on the range of 175-180F, as many people like a LOT of milk. And a note: at Sbux, come in to get your coffee. Dont go through the drive through for Brews. (cant be stressed enough) If the urns are blinking, it means they're expired. The heating element turns off. Once, at another store, I ordered a cup of coffee and it was luke-warm..Judging by the temp, id say it was expired for 3+ hours.
Now, yes, Im used to drinking near-boiling coffee. I use a percolator at home when I want a superb coffee, and a lot. A french press only makes about 32 oz (not enough for 2-3 heavy drinkers). And out of the perc-pot, it IS boiling. I drink it, no additives, in less than a minute. Have been since the 6th grade, when I had my coffeecup on my bookbag. Course, I drank folgers then (ugh).
Maybe it's just my mouth. I love super-spicy foods, along with piping hot drinks. My big complaints are when drinks that are supposed to be hot arent hot enough.
That's why a bunch of us still play Total Annihilation, either straight or with a patch called TAWP.
That game allows extreme porc, octopus, rush, or hidden infiltrators. TAWP has some rather nasty vehicles (one being a bertha-car that fires 20+ screens in length). Add that to 1000 units per player for stable play, or 5k for unstable play:P
And it runs on damn near every computer since '98.
And Wine kicks ass too. Turns all those gunky Windows calls to snappy network happy X calls:)
And it allows you to share apps on a Windows network. Just install a free X server and make it rootless. Voila! X-based Windows apps sharable to wherever, including on the VPN to the employees homes:D

NMAP and nc is all one really needs to hack other computers on the net.

You could have tripwire verify state on both systems and watch if there are any intrusions.
If there is, you sever the link between app and db. That's why I like using a brouter. Hackers see no firewall nor can they access it.
Nice formula. Lets apply to music..
if( (probablity_of_benefit)*(benefit) > (probability_of_consequences)(consequences) ){
breakTheLaw();
}
1 (approaches 1, music files form torrents work nice) * 1 (you get the files) > 1e-8 (roughly the average of getting a 5k lawsuit) * 5e3 (settlement)
1 > 5e-5
break_the_law(True)
and I hate camelcase.
But that's how you play it...

I prefer to do better.
I post torrent links so that those who WOULD HAVE bought the game will not do so now. And those torrents are undoubtedly cleaner than the "good store bought" ones.
Why buy crap when you can take better for free?
And properly working file copying tools are not a requirment for an OS?
Even my OS supports weird files and "broken" filenames.
Every memory is important, regardless the place, incidence, or time. That's why it's such a tragedy to even lose one of those memories.
And we lose millions of them per day.
Hence why programs proving theorems should be proved also.
Also the program should catch OS inconsistencies an direly alert them to the user of the CAS, as those could create errors also.
Then why do you play on slashdot?
Im sure there's plenty in real life you could be doing right now, rather than wasting in front of a monitor, or worse, stealing a bosses time from them!
