JetDirect boxes log to loghost.assignedomain. by default, have for 15 years. If you use DHCP with syslog set there, they automatically log to that log host.
If you're JetDirect boxes aren't logging automatically when you plug them in your network is configured wrong.
Yes, unauthorized access of pretty much anything is illegal, WTF makes you think it wouldn't be anyway?
However, specifically, unauthorized access of a computer or telecommunications equipment is most certainly covered under several federal laws.
Unauthorized access means 'doing anything they didn't want you to do, specifically stated in advance or otherwise.', so pretty much anytime you touch any computer without permission in any way, its covered.
That doesn't consider any pornography or offensive content standards and a crapton of other laws.
I'm just curious as to why you wouldn't instinctively know this is covered in about a billion different ways. Are you 12? Do you still think some silly little 'well they didn't say THAT' kind of thing is a legal loophole?
You mean the guy undergoing cancer treatment parked in handicapped spots? No shit? You mean he acted like he was sick?
Its nice that you try to make stupid little things out to be horrible, but you all fall apart when the pics you base your retardediness on show several more empty handicapped spots right next to his car... oh and he was DYING FROM CANCER AND DEALING WITH CHEMOTHERAPY.
Edison stole some ideas. The ideas weren't where the greatness was, though. Most people here have had several great ideas. How many of us have had any noticeable impact on the world? Edison designed and hand built about a THOUSAND different lightbulb designs that didn't work before finding one that did work well. That effort made changed the world. Lots of people had ideas, Edison had determination and worked like crazy to turn an idea into an immensely useful product.
Sigh, you still don't know the truth do you?
Let me give you a hint. Edison himself didn't find the one that worked well it was actually... well, I leave that guess to you, but you've mentioned him in your post!
Because Woz is nothing more now than a bitchy old man who thinks the world shafted him by not giving him the glorification that Steve Jobs got.
There will never be a movie like this that pleases Woz any more than there will ever be a software license other than GPL that RMS thinks isn't evil.
Woz is the kind of person who watches StarWars or Stargate then tells you it sucks and picks it apart for scientific inaccuracies. There is no point in bothering to attempt to please him.
So you really haven't looked at the costs/price of Raspberry PI's at all then have you?
The people who are ACTUALLY making and selling the things aren't getting a bulk discount, they are just making a profit. Do you think RS gives RS a bulk discount on parts because RS put some RS in their RS?
be argued that the melody in his cover is of his own creation even if the lyrics aren't.
No, it can't, not if he wants to use his license to a cover. Thats the point. He doesn't get special protection for 'his parts' because of the license he used to cover it.
But the way ASLR is (supposed) to work . . . theoretically, it should not be possible to know what blocks of memory are used,
If no one knows whats in use, how does any one (or OS) know how to access the data in those locations?
Something ALWAYS knows whats in use and where its at. All you have to do is know where to ask.
If I put some block of data in some random RAM location, but don't store any way to know whats in that block of data than NO ONE can do anything useful with it, not just the exploits. Your OS and your Apps have to know how to write to important locations in order to work.
Without ASLR (more specifically without relocatable code) your app has a hard coded table of addresses for important bits of data made at compile time.
With ASLR (or relocatable code) your app still has to know where those places are! Now it just uses a lookup table, which it can find the lookup table... at a well known address. So exploits just use your lookup table as well. The only exploits it stops are old ones that weren't coded to use the lookup table. All new exploits WILL use the lookup table which means you've added complexity and effectively added no advantage.
VirtualAlloc's without requiring a backing store work just fine for consuming enough of the 64 bit virtual backing store that it doesn't matter.
Asking for space but telling the OS you don't need it right NOW will get you an address space with no memory used until you cause a page fault by accessing it causing a page of real memory to actually be attached to it. Until that point, its just an entry in the page table, to which its easy to fill up, your computer does it every boot.
True, but you have to consider that ASLR was never intended as an unbreakable security feature. It was always just an impediment to an easy exploit of jumping to a fixed address. There are common tricks published for getting around ASLR to some degree.
Anyone who truly understands how computers work and specifically how ASLR does what it does should be fully aware that ASLR only stops absolutely stupid hacks. All important addresses can be looked up. They have to be looked up to be useful. If nothing can lookup an important address, nothing can really do anything to it, making it not real useful for computing in general, let alone hacking.
To get around ASLR all you have to do is consult... the built in lookup table which is at... A FIXED ADDRESS as it has to be able to be found for everything to work.
All ASLR does is means you need to spend a few extra clock cycles determining where you want to do your exploitation rather than hard coding it into the file.
Let me restate that...
All ASLR does is means you have to use proper programming technics in your exploits rather than being lazy and hard coding your values.
The only security it provides is against a bug accidentally causing the same sort of crash twice in a few causes and preventing a few exceptionally lazy people from writing working exploits. Unfortunately, most of the people writing exploits are far from lazy, making ASLR effectively worthless and a good waste of a considerable chunk of processing time as now a metric fuckton of addresses have to be looked up rather than known in advance.
The 'common tricks' to 'get around ASLR' are 'write proper code'.
Except if you look at where their money comes from... it has nothing to do with Linux and everything to do with investments they made with money from their IPO years ago.
RAMDoubler created a compressed swap partition. It actually worked as advertised, depending on your setup it may actually make things faster for you, but buying more ram was ALWAYS the proper solution.
VMware stores duplicate memory pages between OSes in a single instance across multiple running VMs. This is no different than what Linux, BSD, or Windows do with things like EXE backing stores already except VMware has to search out duplicate pages as it doesn't really know how the underlying OS does its thing but it DOES know how the translation buffer is configured. This also works as advertised and is why I have twice as much RAM allocated to virtual machines on my VMware server as they actually consume. Windows machines all doing essentially the same thing have... lots of duplicate pages.
Even the Nexus 7 lags. I'll buy that you don't' notice it, but it most certainly does. I've had and returned two Nexus 7s hoping to find the lag had been fixed, but it hasn't.
Part of the issue is the way apps are written rather than the OS at this point I think. The play store is a prime example of visible lag that exists due to a poor app design.
Scroll through the play store on a nexus 7 device quickly and it'll scroll fine then stop cold in its tracks, which a sliver at the bottom of the screen saying 'loading' or something to that effect. Technically its not lagging, but it sure as hell FEELS that way. The simple solution is to get a total count at the start, then calculate how far you can scroll total and not stop scrolling to display the loading screen, just scroll into blank space.
This scrolling into black space and loading later is what you'll find on Apple written apps for iOS and is why iOS doesn't get the same perception.
Yes, I'm an iOS fanboy, but I've TRIED to be a Android fan and I just can't do it. Put them side by side and the built in Apps on iOS will feel far better than those built into Android. Actual performance is irrelevant. How they feel matters.
The only people I know that say Android isn't laggy are people who don't use iOS devices. If you have nothing to compare with, you just don't notice.
Yes, 4.1 is smoother than 4.0, Yes, 4.2 is smoother than 4.1. But the apps need worked now that the OS isn't as bad as it once was. I've seen Android apps that don't lag, but the default ones due. Chrome has the same sort of shitty lag when scrolling, where mobile Safari doesn't.
Perception is far more important than reality when it comes to user interface. Another thing as an iOS user that makes Android 'feel' laggy is the lack of rubber banding on scroll. Yes, the Nexus 7 has the blue glowy thing when you try to scroll past the end, but again as an iOS user, it feels like lag to me as the blue glowy isn't all that noticeable compared to the rubber banding. Yes, I understand Android previously couldnt' do rubber banding due to patent issues, but my point is that while Android may not ACTUALLY be laggy, it still is perceived as such due to the UI.
You can deny the perception, but it doesn't change it to most people and it will certainly remain one of those things that you're going to hear from iOS users until it changes.
What school are you going to that isn't already blanketed with real WAPs? No, not your shitty Linksys from CheapBoxStore, actual wifi networks setup for proper roaming between WAPs.
Professors tend to make someone else do most of their work while they fuck off doing something interesting instead of teaching. Their salaries are 'terrible' due to simple economics. Many people want to have the university pay them to 'research' shit... oh and teach one class or maybe two per semester using a plan that was cooked up 30 years ago. They then pass off as much work as possible to a TA.
Admins make more because they actually do more work, and its work that no one really wants to do, hence not a massive supply of people that will do it and the price stays up.
Teachers and professors make what they make because they are easy to replace.
Let's face the truth here, students will be playing Facebook games and that's it.
That is almost universally a fault of the teacher.
Some students will wonder off and do things they shouldn't. Most however will pay attention IF and ONLY IF the teacher is capable of properly teaching students and keeping them focused.

You need to learn the difference between a movie that is a Documentary (which this isn't) and a work of Fiction (which this is).
The problem is yours if you can't distinguish between the two.
The funny part is that you're getting all uppity about how OTHER people might have the problem you're having.

Then that would be worse, so this can not possibly be 'as bad as it gets' since you've already pointed out a situation thats worse.

Or you just don't notice it.
I find that anyone used to an iOS device can pick up a Nexus 7 and notice the lag.
If all you use is Android devices, you probably don't notice.
Its not actual lag so much as poor UI choices that are perceived as lag at this point in my opinion, but I most certainly can 'feel' the lag.
Bullshit fanboy.

All the fighting sports?
Boxing of various types.
Wrestling of various types.
Survival Contests (real ones, not reality TV shows).
Not when its anything timothy brings up. He makes concrete blocks look like intelligent creatures.
You only need to mark it once, preferably the first time its used in a document. You don't need to do it every time.
You can also simply put all your trademarks in a single designated place (say ... at the end) and that covers it as well.
Using it repeatedly in the same document just makes it clear you don't know what the fuck you're doing.
Trademarks do not need totalitarian defensive measures. Registering it is really the brunt of whats needed and renewing it on time to maintain it.
