He's far from rich. He's got quite a bit of people donating to his legal fund. A lot of people. And a lot of people helping for free on his legal as well.
Well, after doing the Right Thing(TM) (AKA: cyber-stalking) and slogging through his known Slashdot posts, it would seem that he rarely (but at times, does) puts the currency symbol at the end of the currency amount. He also sometimes does not use the transposed '.' and ',' but, most of the time he does, especially on amounts greater than 100k.
I did find mention of Euthanasia being legal in his country so I definitely assume you are correct, BronsCon; he's a foreigner.
Or, he's a programmer who has used Basic and a lot of other languages where '$' denotes a variable of some sort.
Back in my old days of VB and QB (yeah yeah.) I got super used to putting the '$' at the end and, to this day, still do at times. As for the period vs comma? I cannot attest for that one.
As I said earlier, they posted it on their SOURCEFORGE twitter.
Again, not the best of places, but sourceforge was having the same issues. I guess they assumed people who used slashdot also followed sourceforge (not true for me) Alas, after finding the tweets there, I was able to sit back and enjoy freedom (and blue sky) without slashdot leeching my brain and begging for more.
Unfortunately, they were not tweeting on the Slashdot twitter. They were using the Sourceforge twitter. Took me a while to figure that one out, but they definitely -were- updating people...just the wrong people. (or only some of the people)
So props to updating, either way. Just would have been easier if people knew where.
This is precisely what I do as well. Garbage collection is a requirement. I do always triple read the comment before making a decision, though, to not moderate incorrectly.
I absolutely -always- upmod to comments that are just fantastic, though.
I think we can all agree that you should, in fact, just skip December and go ahead and leave Slashdot. You obviously don't like it; why stay and ferment hate over it? Oh. That's right. Trolls.
I laughed pretty hard when I saw the 'debunk' link pointing to snopes. I even clicked it to see what they had to say. Unfortunately, he linked to an article that had nothing to even do with what you mentioned. But then again, that's how snopes operates -- They take something then 'debunk' something completely unrelated to the original intent and call the entire thing 'false' because they sprinkled a very small part of the original intent in to the fake intent.
Millions of people fall for this. Wish I could get away with banging porn stars, doing drugs and making tons of money by lying like they do!
The snopes article saying that the plane being brought down for the PURPOSE of one person taking over a patent it false, not the patent and idea itself, which Nicknameunavailable is talking about.
Also, Snopes isn't exactly a...trusted....source site. Let alone one I would trust when it comes to thoughts / ideas that span beyond the 'box' of thinking.
We had an instance where one of our customers only had one hand. Pretty difficult to do the three finger salute with one hand. They were resorting to putting things in their mouth to get the third key. I bought a cheap USB keyboard, took out the PCB, figured out what to short out to get CTRL-ALT-DEL, and put it in a box with a single button. Problem solved.
I have fairly small hands and I am able to CTRL+ALT+DEL with one hand -- My right one.
Maybe some keyboards make it difficult, but every one I use has made this possible.
May I get some citations on this? I'm rather curious.
A quick Google search didn't show up anything. So either you're trolling, making this up, or quoting from something I cannot seem to find. I really hope the latter, as that sounds really interesting.
I don't care what malwarebytes said or some retarded online virus scanner. I've seen your code and I've seen what you're doing. You may want to come clean, or I'll start releasing it.
And I'm not trolling you. I also have quite a nice life, Thank you very much. I, unlike you, don't have to spam Slashdot all day like you to feel 'wanted' (Hint: No one likes you.)
You put people down when you start to feel inadequate. Your mental illness is so blatantly obvious that it hurts. Why don't you try posting as a real account for once, loser. Or did mommy not breastfeed you enough?
My God, I cannot wait until the day we all read on Slashdot (no doubt, it will be posted on the front page, I assure you!)
"Alex, the one known as the "Super Fag" APK, has been found dead today in his home from an apparent intestines puncture. It would seem Mr APK was forcing what is known as a 'fake horse cock' up his rectum, which resulted in his colon and intestines being perforated and, ultimately, causing him to bleed out. He shall be missed greatly in this world as is known as "THE BEST SOFTWARE WRITER EVER" due to his AMAZING invention KNOWN AS THE HOST FILE. Who will ever take up his mantle now?
More on this horrific story at 11!"
I'll have you all now though, be careful using his "WaReZ" that he's pushing. Be sure to step through some IDA or something else, first. You'll be shocked when you find out what his software is doing behind the scene. Talk about 'soul'd out! (as he says)'
Let me clarify for the record: I do NOT believe it was a bullet. I was merely stating that no one would hear a bullet with the loudness of a rocket. As I said, those things are -loud-.
Also, I think the whole conspiracy thing is a bunch of BS. Rocket science is -hard-, very hard. And things go boom all the time. Suck it up, Princess.
I have yet to see a single one that can decrypt SSL. I tried. A lot.
The only way to 'decrypt' is to force your own cert, which must be trusted on the devices (WPAD or manually) before it can actually do it without a browser throwing a fit. Unfortunately, once you have a mobile device enter, they tend to throw all kinds of hissy fits.
If I am wrong in assuming there is not a router that can actually decrypt ssl, then please, inform me. Because I looked for ages and even attempted to figure it out on my own. SSL is NOT perfect, but it does have a decent chain of trust.
I could not agree more on the point of treating all devices at hostile and, for the most part, I do.
I should note, since I didn't note it earlier - this is a home network, not a business, thankfully. All devices are mac-white list only. I do have a separate, highly restricted and segregated "friends" (Guest) network for hostiles that I cannot control. They also don't have all the protections of my main network.
A single point of failure, however, does make me think though. I did not consider that fact. Maybe it's time to rework a little of my little slice of heaven and see if I can add some better protections. FWIW, though; each device is accounted for on my network (non-guest) and all traffic (I don't "look" at traffic. Just have scripts and stuff to make sure it's not doing anything bad) is monitored. The 'firewall' portion, DPI and whatnot, works quite hard on all the packets, but for the most part, I've ran a clean network for many years. I just make sure to check the data at least once a day and fix / check out any irregularities. It's also helpful that there's approximately one windows machine in the network and it has a few more checks on it.
Thankfully, my network is more complex than most home networks. All my devices are set to ONLY work on my network. Wireless devices route through vpn to my network.
Thank you for the reply, either way.
I would love a better way to have a cert, a signed and proper cert, for my network, but I think the only choice is Let's Encrypt or whatever it's called now. I still am kind of leery about them. Some times, something that looks too good to be true, truly is. I will await the verdict in a year or so to see how they actually do.
So this runs to a different question: Any way to obtain a cert, for my network only, to authenticate my hosts and clients (At any given time, my network has ~25 clients, depending on which systems I have running at the time and which phones are powered on) before going out on that damn internet? I really don't want to pay for a cert, especially if it's fallible (Symantec.) -- Are they are any truly trustworthy ones left? Or should we just byte the bullet, roll our own cert and keep vigilant on logs (what I'm doing now)?
Would using squid reverse proxy on a PF sense (or other firewall setup) with your own certs, on machines you control that trust those certs, defeat something like this?

He's far from rich. He's got quite a bit of people donating to his legal fund. A lot of people. And a lot of people helping for free on his legal as well.

I did find mention of Euthanasia being legal in his country so I definitely assume you are correct, BronsCon; he's a foreigner.
I hereby concede defeat.
Or, he's a programmer who has used Basic and a lot of other languages where '$' denotes a variable of some sort.
Back in my old days of VB and QB (yeah yeah.) I got super used to putting the '$' at the end and, to this day, still do at times. As for the period vs comma? I cannot attest for that one.
Did you even bother to check the address on Google maps or anything, first, before making that comment?
Pfft. What has slashdot become these days.
As I said earlier, they posted it on their SOURCEFORGE twitter.

Pitiful attempt, Alex.
My name is Mike. I have no need to hide my name. I actually have a set of balls that work, unlike you.

Ugh, you too? I had one of those at my shop. Old lady refused to accept that AOL stopped being 'cool' decades ago.
I always hated when she brought her machine in. It was basically, "Pick a virus from a hat" every time.
34GB is a -DOZEN- AAA games? What? Where?
Just on my machine alone:
Doom: 54.0 GB
Fallout 4: 25.3GB
Withcer 3: 50.04
What AAA games are -you- playing? It's not unheard of for Steam to chew through a couple hundred GB a month for me, and that's just for updates.
(In reply to ALL the replies to me)
Let me clarify for the record: I do NOT believe it was a bullet. I was merely stating that no one would hear a bullet with the loudness of a rocket. As I said, those things are -loud-.
Also, I think the whole conspiracy thing is a bunch of BS. Rocket science is -hard-, very hard. And things go boom all the time. Suck it up, Princess.
Not saying this theory is true, but have you ever heard a rocket? Especially a space bound rocket?
Those things are -loud- -- Even when sitting on the pad and going through pre-flight checks -- or anything where they're throttling the engines.
A .50bmg round wound sound like a chirp against all that background noise.
