Doesn't Google Authenticator provide you with a list of one-time use codes you can print out and carry with you for just those types of situations?

When I worked my way through SICP I found the following javascript based scheme REPL very useful: http://bluishcoder.co.nz/jsscheme/ Unfortunately, searching for jsscheme in Google gives you a list of many different pr

I set those flags in group policy but the watermark doesn't go away. The only way to get rid of it is to re-enable SecureBoot in the BIOS. This is really frustrating.

Agreed. It is amazing how it is possible for a product development team to come to believe that making me click several times to see the same information I could before via one click (or without clicking at all) is a good idea.

This looks like a lot of effort has gone into it and I eagerly await support for ssh & https. We have an internal instance of GitLab set up here at work and I'd love to see something that was easier to upgrade take its place. Edit:

What exactly is your evidence that Amazon Fulfillment (I'm assuming) underpays people here in the US? My ex-wife here in Texas (a state that is not known for "worker friendly" laws) works in one of Amazon's distribution

AdblockPlus, NoScript and RequestPolicy are my tools to control the content my web browser displays. My general rule is that I'll only disable ad blocking on a few trusted sites and never on a site that uses a third-party advertising

Just tried it out. Still no packages.

I have a two-tier solution. Cheap VPS provider in the US that then chains to a a dedicated server from OVH which is hosted in Canada. For sites that are US-only I have a web proxy running on the VPS provider and use Foxproxy to divert thos

I'm looking forward to the eventual day when you log into the GNOME desktop environment and are presented with a single, full-screen button that says "Logout" because all other features have been removed. In all seriousness t

Give x2go a try first (it's based on nx). In my experience it has been far less fiddly than freenx or neatx.

Same here. I'd pay money for something like FireGPG that worked with gmail.

Some people dislike it but I use Cygwin when I want access to the various unix standard tools on a Windows box (including the openssh daemon). http://www.cygwin.com/ The setup.exe is both the installer and the package manag

For FreeBSD, I think your choices for virtualization are limited to jails or Virtualbox. Virtualbox on FreeBSD does support Intel/AMD processor virtualization extensions I believe.

For mid-range dedicated hosting, I've been using OVH and have generally been happy with them. https://www.ovh.com/us/index.xml It's important to note that their North American data centers are actually located in Canada although I do beli

That's the first thing I thought as well. Do the features of GCE really justify such a large difference in costs?

You don't even need to have a pass phrase that long with KeePass. It allows you to set the number of rounds of encryption to perform to make brute forcing even short master passwords infeasible. Of course, that assumes the master password

That's certainly welcome news. Are there going to be any improvements to the performance of the incremental search when "All Available Sites" is selected? There is simply no reason why Eclipse should take 30+ seconds at 100% cpu on a i7-2

True, that's usually the case. However, it is still entirely up to the whim of the entity asserting a patent claim (rightly or wrongly) as to whether or not you end up with a very large legal bill. That's a huge amount of liability and

There are no free passes like that in the US patent system as far as I'm aware. You don't have to knowingly infringe a patent to be taken to court by a patent holder and potentially held liable for patent infringement.

I guess I find the icons and fonts sizes for the default Ubuntu desktop are (for lack of a better term) Fischer-Price sized and I just can't comfortably work with it. While I can deal with installing additional packages in order to gain con

Is it now possible to perform basic tasks like specifying font and icon sizes without installing third-party tweak tools or manually editing text files? I know a lot of work goes into these releases but when basic desktop functionality has

Dropbox is the only cloud sync client that I've found so far that has decent support for hosting TrueCrypt containers. It's unfortunate that my particular use case is so narrow because I can't really consider something to be a dropbox repl

I rent a dedicated server from OVH in their Canada data center. For $79/month I get the following: 1) 100mbit connection 2) Core i3-2130 w/16 GB ram 3) 2x1TB sata configured as software raid-1 To be blunt, $79 is an absurdly cheap price fo

Just adding my two cents worth. This file looks legit as I have a long, complex password on linkedin and the sha1 hash for it is present in the dump.

I get a bad config file error when I copy the aliases into my .gitconfig. Edit: Something to do with copy/pasting from the browser. Cloning the gist repository and copying directly in vim works fine.

I just copied about 800 megs worth of data (a handful of files) from a network share directly to an attached USB flash drive in less than a minute on Windows 7 x64. Another folder on the same network share is 5.96 GB worth of data in 2795 f
