A lot of ISPs are anything but, including business or datacenter connections. I had to deal with one of them using transparent DNS proxies without disclosing the fact. Only found out when something broken on their end. The only way to have

Why not? Saudi money (not the Saudi government, but they are indirectly responsible) enables and sustains political Islam worldwide. Muslims in South East Asia have been practicising a pretty laid back version of Islam for centuries: No por

Well no. What you are describing is basically searchig through all permissible permutations in a given search space, i.e. a thousand monkeys with typewriters. Fron time to time the system will produce something that is not gibberish, but th

Thanks for the response. I think JRS's account has some serious issues with the writer conflating hardware failure (stuck bits, unreadable blocks, etc) with random error that is more common and inevitable, not to mention undetectable i

They just don't buy into the subscrption model at all and it is not limited to just games. A lot of major Japanese music labels pulled their titles from Apple Music lately because they worry that it competes with the sales of physical

You are quite right that 8GB memory and a cheap processor is good enough for home use. However I thought the consensus is that one cannot skip ECC with ZFS because a silent bitflip can corrupt an entire zpool. In any case the extra cost is

That's another possibility, the comment above can be interpreted either way. In any case they were probably running something like squid with very basic level 7 filtering, so if something comes on 443 they have no option but to forward

It will probably involve a similar roll of controllers, plus supervisors/representatives from operators of all DNS root servers[0]. [0]: https://lwn.net/Articles/647459/

Sounds like they enabled HTTP CONNECT without limiting the accepted port range, so any protocol will go through. Maybe this is why Microsoft Azure never allowed ICMP travseral through their outer firewall despite frequent request from users

I have been using it since its early releases in 2003 and the feature set really reflects the continuous development.

Once upon a time I bought a new laptop and all's well. Several months later, however, it developed a problem: Within 10 minutes of connecting to the internet using the onboard modem (this was really a while ago) the OS will crash after

Reviewers are generally not reimbursed but full time editors probably are, there are also day-to-day operation and administration duties to be carried out by salaried workers. Depending on the type of journal they will also have to maintain

Enforcement have been fairly lax in the last decade or two across the country. For every "unplanned" childbirth you can pay a one-off fine (Social Maintenance is the current euphemism) which is probably more like a poll tax based

It is a claim they inherited from the Qing dynasty which legitimizes their territorial claims. The current "reincarnation" process was formalised by the 5th Dalai Lama in agreement with the Manchu Emperor, and its origins are cert

You can't. Crypto is done on a separate piece of silicon and dumping memory or NAND will get you nothing but scrambled bits. From a cold boot user data is not loaded into memory until a correct pin has been entered once, and since A5 n

That's surprisingly fewer domains than I expected. No wonder I never received any replies for my application to their beta program.

HOTP tokens does not expire with time, so there is a bigger risk of them being stolen from transit/storage and successfully used.

I've had similar issues with an open source project in which a simple proxy was established with FiddlerCore to tap traffic to a web browser, pretty tame stuff and nothing malicious. Problem is that by default it was configured to list

A two-factor authentication token to sent via text, not the actual password. That said, I find SMS-based 2FA to be pretty dodgy as well. Cloudflare was hacked once by somebody who managed gain access to an admin's mobile phone by socia

Probably not that harmful, but it's a liability issue and definitely worth addressing early if the house is to be sold in future. The building I currently work in is going to get some plumbing work done and there is likely asbestos som

Part of the indiscriminate use was out of necessity, but it is secondary to the fact that many antibiotics seems to promote growth and improve conversion of feed into weight gains. The exact mechanism is not well understood. A good example

Not really. The pricing was probably set to encourage customers to migrate their infrastructure to EC2 knowing there is no added cost uploading everything you have been storing since 1994.

Many types of fish used for sushi in Japan have been frozen at some point because commercial trawlers spend weeks if not months at sea, and the catch has to be frozen or left to spoil.
