Agreed; special precautions are needed when ssh is open.
I left mine on the default port, but added an IP whitelist to my firewall rules. In the rare case that I'm not connecting from a previously-added IP, I can call my brother who'll run a local script to add my IP. I've only had to do it once, and it seemed to work well.
People can throw themselves at my ssh port all they like, they won't get through. [The old adage about inviting trouble may be appropriate here.]
Easy; plug in the Ethernet, boot a Gentoo LiveCD, and a minute after the disc access has stopped, type the following (carefully) at the assumed # prompt:
# ifconfig eth0 [a known IP] #/etc/init.d/ssh start # passwd [enter a password for root, twice]
SSH in from another box, and you're done! Worked fine for me, installing Gentoo on a Kanga with a broken screen from three timezones away.
Of course, it assumes that the Ethernet card is working, and that the kernel picks it up as eth0. If the network lights up but you get no joy, try a LAN-wide ping sweep; I've had to do that a coupla times when this kinda thing's cropped up.
That's the "fake" key for Office 4.3/95; the OEM keys for Windows 95 were 17 digits, and split into a 5-7-5 pattern. Only with Windows 98 and Office 97 did the full alphanumeric "five 5's" key come into effect.
It would run fine. As GP says, CP/M had many of the same interrupts, so the assembled binary would have worked without a problem.
Whether it'd assemble under a CP/M system, is another matter. I can't remember seeing a version of Macro Assembler for CP/M, but I'm sure someone will be along to correct me.
The row pointer refers to the point in the table file where the row begins. It's a byte-level address into the file; because it's 32-bit, it can only address a row up to (2^32)-1 bytes into the table file. Hence, 4GB limit on table size.
I know this is a strange comment to make in a Trash-80 thread, but: Have we gone back in time 10 years?
Ever since the 760 days, Lenovo have manufactured ThinkPads. The entire X and T lines, and everything before for at least 5 years has been Lenovo, including the keyboards. If you're of the opinion that Lenovo "taking over" the ThinkPad is a bad thing, you're very uninformed.
I'm a web developer, working in Staffordshire. And I live in one of these "ghetto"s around Manchester. I contribute more than my fair share of taxes, and have admittedly taken advantage of the Job Seeker's Allowance when I was unemployed for a year and a half.
I also happen to have Pakistani parents.
Should I be sent "back", given that I don't even know the language and would have no place to live?
A cluster in the middle of a calculation grind generally runs each node at full blast; that's 100% CPU (on all cores, if you run multicore).
Now consider a machine with 4 VMs running on it, each running at full blast. That's 400% CPU, right?!
No. It's 100% CPU, with each VM taking 25%. You can only get as much CPU power out as you put in, and virtualisation doesn't magically generate CPU from air. As the GP said, "virtualisation is not the answer to everything".
Of course there'd be a rebellion. And I'm the Queen of England.
If Bush were to instate an emergency suspension of the election, the first person to speak out against it would simply be ignored by the people, who have grown so apathetic to their own lack of freedom that they don't even know what they've lost.
Personally, I think Bush will place the US under martial law in December: allow the vote to happen, so that the hope of a new president abounds, then crush the people's spirits in that gap between election and inauguration.
Subtle difference, but I think it'd be more effective as a tool to destroy the people.
Your mistake was leaving the obvious signs in the URL. On the other hand, there is someone who's found the stolen laptops on eBay, you may have more luck with that link.
I don't know what you define as "regular" gasoline, but regular in the UK runs at 93-95 octane, with premium at 98-99. If 93 octane is premium in the US, I pity the poor engines which have to take that crap.
That said, UK fuel has cracked $9/gal; I guess we pay for it.
There is a reason for those days to be missing from the calendar. In 1752, some countries switched from the Julian method of calendaring dates to the Gregorian system. By that time, the two calendars were out of step by 11 days, so those 11 days were deleted.
From what I recall, most countries had already switched some years earlier; hence, depending on where your locale is set, there'll be either 11 days missing from September 1752 or 10 days missing from October in a year I forget.
Of course, there are plenty of oddities related to this, like Sweden overcorrecting its calendar and having to add a 30th of February to compensate; or Greece not switching to Gregorian until the 20th century, and having to add something like 15 days. It's all very well documented in the Calendar FAQ, highly recommended reading if you're bored.
Before anyone gets all riled up on this, it's a repost of a repost of an old troll. I can't find the original or the repost right now, but this text is exactly the same, right down to the use of "486/66".
At least take the time to update your trolls, son.
Note the cunning tactic employed here: paste in a Wikipedia link to a random Latin phrase, and instant +5! As they say, quidquid latine dictum sit, altum sonatur; looks like it works on us.
That said, it seems that Vista is taking a real drubbing (here and elsewhere); even my workplace isn't moving to Vista, and we're internally a Microsoft shop. There's Exchange, 2k3 Server, the whole nine yards in the server closet, but the boss has reformatted his new laptop to XP because Vista was such a dog.
From what I recall of the tag discussion at the time they were introduced, there has to be a threshold level of tag submissions before it will appear. Also, of course, there's a maximum display of the top 5 "rated tags" on a given article. If "whatcouldpossiblygowrong" was submitted by 4 people, and "thievingcunts" by 1, it'd surprise me if the latter appeared.
Of course, I just tag every article !whatcouldpossiblygowrong, to be safe;)
Agreed, tag this article !whatcouldpossiblygowrong. Do the same for every subsequent article which manages to gain this tag. Maybe then it'll only be used where it's appropriate.

Why do I know this? No reason ;)
Top-posting.
Disclaimer: I saw it in another thread some time ago, but it's apropos here.

No, they'll take you away for disturbing the peace, and you won't see the light of day for a long, long time.
Mind you, I didn't even have to do that last time I flew into Newark. Looking brown and having a Pakistani name is enough to hold you for 6 hours.
Of course there'd be a rebellion. And I'm the Queen of England.

To be fair, the last time I went through Newark, there was a banner saying "Welcome to the United States"; it was on the exit door of Customs.
Of course, that's nothing to do with my detention for 6 hours, but I am of Pakistani origin; it's only to be expected.
Nice try, but your sibling poster already did the Rickroll.
This is why I've put YouTube in my firewall's blacklist. Nothing useful can come of that site.
This is indeed what the Catechism of the Church of Last Thursdayism states: that cats created the universe last Thursday, and humans as their carers.
Personally, I subscribe to a different thread of the same belief: that the Universe was instantiated as a UniVMware guest system last Thursday.
And now, of course, in a recursive Slashdot effect of doom, the server hosting that error GIF is a smouldering ruin.

Good attempt, though

I often call for a "-1 Idiot" mod option, as you may or may not know. Now in the parent, I have an example I can cite!

Oh, how I wish there was a "-1 Missed The Joke". We should petition Taco to add it, along with "-1 Disagree"!
