torture? imprisonment? not unless its related to virtualized AIX and cobol middleware management...
matt and trey?
they need to be developers, researchers, or technical experts...otherwise this is more of the same worthless bullshit i can hear whenever i like on FOX news.
that is essentially controlled on both sides by 4 or 5 major corporations? things like warrantless wiretaps, home invasion, arrest and torture become completely justifiable to maintain classified state secrets like new copyright laws.
spying on a country is not just a privilege of the USA.
unless theyre willing to cite information regarding the attacks and some credible proof, i dont care to go insane over the fact that someone nmapped a fistful of government IP ranges that are routinely published in places like phrack.
didnt we do the same kind of fingerpointing before we went to iraq??
to prevent the village from further being discovered, i for one insist their ISP and the surrounding ISP's be removed from all routing tables. this will prevent malicious cookies from the google beta email from tracking them.
to genuinely care about the hype surrounding this worm when no one knows what its destined to do, and the problem stems from a host operating system with a near two decade track record of this sort of stuff.
has a metered, five second latency before realization..if years of maintaining mailservers have taught me anything its that users will routinely do the strangest and most irresponsible things in an email and expect you to magic it better. is this actual innovation?? have they run out of things better to do?
now whenever i mention colocation and its impending budget, ill have this godforsaken thing thrown in my face. important facts like "way outside its normal envelope" will fall to the wayside as superbox 9000 will solve all the companies woes, cause our shareholders to sing, and increase productivity by big number!
then, when i integrate it with both the cloud and the grid infrastructure, ill see a completely service oriented architecture designed to leverage our aging, proprietary, uncompetitive, lazy, and barely piece of suck ass assets to rocket us in direct competition with google, before we overtake microsoft!
glad they tested it, but sad it was never really emphasized the box shouldn't be guaranteed to specifications that resemble porn.
does anyone on the team have a degree in anything? heres a suggestion: before you blow up 500 pounds of explosive chemical, do the god damned math. sure no one cares if your sorry ass is blown to shreds but im certain a whole town might get noticed.
has never really seemed appropriate to me. in an infrastructure you have quorum managers, active fencing, and weighted peers...what does road construction have to do with any of it?
of fucked up...when has my universal remote ever navigated the virtual world?? why would it ever need to do this?? the only thing ive ever charged it with doing is cranking the volume up on rammsteins los from across the room.
and unsustainable practice. just because jacksauce saw some AOL ips spam him with subscription notices doesnt mean the return addresses actually map to real people, or the intended effort was prankish in nature. it could simply have been designed to manually harvest emails, all part of a botnetted script.
this guys out of touch. real people, the ones you hope for revenge, dont exist anymore in the spam world. if the problem becomes pronounced enough your spam filters should be able to generate a report of the offending subnets and allow you to blacklist them. problem solved.
last year regarding their OS led me to believe they have absolutely no technical expertise in linux. we did not have a technical expert present at the discussion, only 'senior support' personnel.
the conversation was always steered toward response times and support metrics...extensive testing and development. nagging kernel memory use questions never got responded to. BTW, youre getting a linux with no SELinux, so essentially oracle is shipping a "preconfigured" hacked red hat to eliminate the confusion most developers have when they realize their windows oracle expertise stopped at "insert CD rom" in the linux realm.
oracle in linux performs no better than oracle in windows...its load handling sucks and the uptime for it was often measured in hours. maybe a bad developer or two to blame, but Oracle linux did not help. dropping SELinux got us dinged on SOX compliance as well.
that states "express written consent of the NCAA and the -insert major network here-"
thanks to lock-ins, black-outs, exclusivity rights, and licensing agreements, and the crushing monopoly the NCAA maintains on their franchise, what led anyone to expect they would allow people to watch the game in any other format but one of the most coontrolled and restrictive? if this were PBS it might be news for nerds on some level, but this highlights a greater problem with monopolistic entertainment industries.
verizon obviously has some equipment or customers behind their mailservers that do not support starttls. to avoid total breakage i would imagine they will include port forwarding on a few nets as well. moving the ports is...a bandage at best.
most slashdotters subscribe to the whitelist notion when it comes to cookies.
only my bank, my netflix, and slashdot get to assign cookies...i dont remember adding any 'tubes' to that list.
just worked an aesops fable into slashdot.
as tfa states, with technical skill i may not be immune to economic crisis, but lets at least acknowledge the fact that being fired doesnt mean as much to me as to the guy who swats nails for a living to support his aging parents and 2 kids. lets worry about him a bit more.
of the batmobile and the weinermobile, fartmobile promises far fewer smiles on the faces of children and far less dynamic action. instead, kids can marvel at its ability to generate heat in the winter, electricity in the summer, and a putrid stench all year round no matter where its parked.

thank you, thank you...the third showing of the red dwarf is completely sold out. dont forget to tip your waitress!
high in the sky, corey doctorow observes patiently as boingboing slithers under the radar....just as planned....
could enjoy not only running a custom linux distribution into the ground, but the hardware to run it on as well!
what i was thinking??
fat hooker monkey...nobody tell 4chan, but feel free to use the phrase as a derogatory remark.
how this makes news for nerds?
torture? imprisonment? not unless its related to virtualized AIX and cobol middleware management...

get ready to import old C libraries and save a ton of money on new voice actors, 'cause this titles getting "reimagined."

smart grid! whatever will i do without my smart devices?? i wont be able to surf the smartnet!!!
one more slashdotter turned off by buzzwords, and hence refuses to RTFA.

calling this an "economic downturn." it didnt work for bush, it didnt work for the fed, and its always been a recession. stop candycoating.
