Great work! This reminds me of a book I read over 40 years ago: https://www.amazon.com/Cheap-Video-Cookbook-Donald-Lancaster... Apparently Don has made the above book available on his site: https://www.tinaja.co

iSH is awesome. I've been using the beta for about a year (or more) and have provided some feedback to Theodore a few times. This eventuality was almost certain because of the App Store restrictions that have been in place since befo

This article seems PC-centric. Apparently the author is too young to know about "rogue" for CP/M or "hack" for Unix. Both of those were in the 80's and predate everything he mentions by at least a decade.

I wonder if it would run any "synthetic" programs. https://www.perlpower.com/prisma/prisma-1984-ppc.pdf My guess is no since it probably does not emulate the original microcode.

Cloudflare isn't the only one with this sort of problem. I continue to get email from FedEx every month instructing me to update my credit card information. The information they have on file is from a card that expired over 10 years

Oh, and another good story from when I still had the same boss. A few years later I thought I would prank my office-mate (and show how easy it was to spoof email headers). This was back in the days with SMTP didn't have any security.

All very true! My story is from about 10 years before Randal's, but it was after the CFAA was passed so I guess I dodged a bullet.

Just to be clear, I obtained the passwords (including root) with "crack", but I NEVER used them. I did not ever attempt to log into any account that I was not authorized to use. All I did was to notify the actual administrator

I read this book shortly after he wrote it. I was a junior engineer at a big company, and the final chapter (on humans being the weakest link in computer security) inspired me to run "crack" on the password (shadow) file of one o

My politics are 180 degrees from hers, but I respect that she could put human relationships above politics. We need more of this.

Arkansas was never in danger. I heard stories about this incident from a missileer I worked with. The issue was that as the fuel leaked out of the tank, the structure of the missile was no longer able to support its own weight. The nuke w

Tragic, but I wonder why anyone would consider bringing sensitive data on their phone or laptop on such a trip? If not the Iranians, the USCPB would almost certainly grab a copy of it all upon his return.

Many tools allow the use of the "--" argument to stop argument parsing. It's a clumsy work-around, but it's better than nothing.

That is just not true. It may be the case if the key itself is compromised, but consider that you may have many different accounts scattered on different servers. Once one of them is compromised, the attacker now has access to every other

Google will never post a list of clear rules. It would restrict their ability to take down content that goes against their political ideology. Facebook and Twitter are the same in this respect.
