This explains a lot, a couple - few months ago, I started getting complaints about "potentially virus infected" / "unscanable" zip files when being served content from facebook.com and fbcdn.net etc.
They probably changed at this point how they were sending data out of the web server with zip compression and it all started falling over at this point....
I was wondering what the change was....
This is the sort of hilarious braindead bullshit a "power" user would come up with to explain something. You're not a user are you? This place is not for you.
You are likely a fucking idiot. I saw your sig about spite. You're still a fucking idiot.
Actually why the fuck did you spend so much time writing all that totally speculative bullshit just to try and prove that MS aren't at fault? Do you want to explain that? Because case sensitive web servers written in Perl are a bit of a fucking stretch of the imagination.
And no, I don't want to show sound reasoning to disprove some wacky shit your diseased brain made up.
Linden Lab got greedy. That's what happened. They do all kinds of things to drive their revenue higher and higher, on th expense of the users, and i don't mean just their wallets, but enjoyability.
Linden Labs have their offices downstairs from me, and if you think they are rolling in money then my reply is "Ha, fucking ha".
If they were that greedy I doubt they would have chosen office space directly above an NCP car park. You can literally smell the stale piss wafting in from the stairwells.
Still, in a sci fi story I am working, a group of terrorists are able to get physical access to the equipment in a missile silo, and they are helped by an AI who can instantly figure out how to hack into a system if given access to the equipment.
Are you going to bother finishing it? Only with plot points like that it sounds like it's going to be a load of old shit.
Re-reading my post, I can see it was phrased confusingly. With "GW-hoax believers" I meant people who believe GW is a hoax.
I tried to google for cold hard figures about the efficiency of wind turbines or solar cells but all I could find were political sites.
The information is there, it's just that you lack the ability to put it together having never learned any type of critical thinking. You are probably literally asking Google for cold hard data on wind turbine efficiency. Basically, you dumb American. You get out.
Well, you probably broke quite a few laws by using coersion to gain access to a customer's servers.
No, he quite obviously didn't and only an unbelievable retard would assume that he had.
Fortunately, given the use of GRE tunnels, the spammer probably broke more laws, and would probably be a bit hesitant to sue.
Given the rambling bullshit nature of the rest of your comment, I'm seriously wondering if you think the use of GRE tunnels is itself illegal. Obviously that would be incredibly stupid, but well...
Really interesting... I suspect some bad treatment to Mac users/Developers going on.
It's also possible that Mac developers are self centred faggots too busy developing the next piece of shitty shareware or iPhone based fart generator to even consider contributing to an open source project. Also most Mac users dislike open source software because it doesn't look right and they'd be embarrassed to be seen using it in Starbucks.
Hopefully VLC for the Mac dies out and you'll all be forced to use iTunes/Quicktime. That would be pretty sweet IMO, because then you'd have to pretend that they are great pieces of software even though you know they are not. Will hopefully lead to some psychotic breakdowns and maybe even someone going postal in an Apple store.
And ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the argumentum ad hominem.
Let us take a moment to ponder this posters ability to take a tone of superiority, all the while unawares of the stupendous amount of ignorance being displayed by his own statement.
Truly a remarkable creature.
It's fine to attack a person instead of his argument when that person reads Free Republic or any other extreme right wing, racist libertarian nonsense. Because you see, that person is scum. They're never going to change their views because the American education system (or home schooling more likely) has left them without the ability to learn. So tell me, why not attack the person? If you did it more often, preferably with those guns you love so much, your country wouldn't be quite so fucked. Good luck with your next civil war. I hope both sides lose. Death to America.
Hey Intel (some of you reading this might not be aware of this fact) has processors that phone home and communicate without the user being aware of it. It would be pathetic to have to run a passive sniffer on your personal network to monitor for unusual, unscheduled or abnormal outgoing traffic. Pathetic but to be 100% secure absolutely necessary. (Fortunately a DD-WRT supported device! [dd-wrt.com] will allow you to do just that!)
If there's one moderation that Slashdot really needs, it's +1 Paranoid Schizophrenic.
If they are making paraffin (yes as in wax) slices of the brain, it could lead to some very useful research.
Yeah, sorry. They're actually just throwing them out the window one at a time and watching them flutter away. They mark them with their initials first, and whoever gets the longest distance wins the sweepstake.
The ultimate test for machine translation system is whether it can do roundtrip translations without information loss or distortion of meaning. When I was in school somebody had carved "Borra mig i bjornen - Drill me in the bear - Drilla mig pa baret" in the desk. It's quite funny if you're a teenager and speak Swedish.
I DON'T SUPPPOSE IT OCCURRED TO YOU TO EXPLAIN THE JOKE TO THOSE OF US WHO AREN'T SWEDISH TEENAGERS?
The interpreter is your CPU. I don't see how looking for that is going to help. It's almost certainly there, and if it isn't, you don't really have that much of a problem.
Actually Oracle 10.2.0.1 on certain versions of 32bit Linux crashed after 49.7 days, usually badly enough that it was easier to hard reboot the system than attempt to regain control as the load average went into the hundreds.
Oracle never expected the value returned by the times() system call to be negative. Unfortunately it's a rapidly increasing signed number and some distros like to start it off high just for the hell of it. It depended on what Hz was set to as well. So on Suse 10 you got 49.7 days. RHEL got you 247.
If this issue sounds familiar to you, you need to patch to 10.2.0.4. And probably find a more suitable job, because this one has been known about for years.
Wooden screws used in the non-working Fermi prototype card which Nvidia claimed was working.
The claim was that wood screws were used, not wooden screws. If you can't even copy bullshit from the Inquirer accurately you should really reconsider whether commenting on tech issues is "your thing".
However, a period of fasting (10-14 days) should force telomere resets in most cells and force a mitochondrial rebuild, which might work as a follow up to this.
The human body is not an MMO and tends not to work like one. Hope this helps, freak.
I did make a mistake in my original post, looking at that log, wagnerrp was there from the start and did make every attempt at being useful, even if he didn't solve the problem, I appreciate the effort either way.
Nice backpedal. You're still scum and should never post on Slashdot again. In fact you've been owned so hard by so many people that I don't even see how you could.

The Window console (cmd.exe) is a true-blue Windows program. It doesn't "emulate" anything. It is not DOS.
Yes it does. It emulates a proper terminal. Quite badly.
I bet BSD advocates modded this shit up. They really are totally unable to spot when they are being trolled.
They likely have a web-server written in perl

(There are some significant advantages to running a "dumb" webserver without ASP, PHP, JSP, etc :-)
I need to figure out a way to have a 'blacklist file', such that any attempt to access these files adds the requester to a blacklist.
Get a less dumb webserver?

Yes, the one you're stealing you entitled little faggot.

G7s?
G6, the G7 was a typo.
Oh really? I assumed the Oracle VM Server was a typo, because ahahahaha holy shit. Sorry about your choice of hypervizor.
well, what then? Just... don't use Opera?
Well, that's something that about 99% of web users can already manage quite easily without even trying. Doesn't seem like much of a problem to me.

Xen with Remus or HA is the thinking man's setup
Presumably the man is thinking "Holy shit, they only announced this last week and it's still pre-alpha. Am I fucking insane?".
The answer is yes, yes he is.

My 64bit Flash plugin works fine. Sorry about your toy OS.
However, a period of fasting (10-14 days) should force telomere resets in most cells and force a mitochondrial rebuild, which might work as a follow up to this.

Rude linuxheads?! I find that hard to believe.
Btw, modding me down, as you most certainly will, only proves my sarcasm was justified.
Shut up, you tedious cocksucker.
