By default, sure, for people who don't know about these settings, they are setting themselves up for failure when a few numbers get transposed. They should ship the device with highest quality settings so your customers are impressed o

That might explain '/proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts', most modern Cisco routers now have 'no ip directed-broadcast' enabled by default, at least for the past 4-5 years, blocking th

Do you have netcat compiled for Cisco IOS and JunOS? If so, please send them to me, and let me know how to get them into the devices firmware.

You've never needed a basic TCP test without installing wget/nmap/etc? Most operating systems and hardware devices have telnet available for this kind of low-level troubleshooting. You've never needed to test an SMTP con

That's exactly what we had in the 80s, a deficient culture in the cockpit, a bunch of hot shot pilots who 'didn't want to be told what to do' and would ignore co-pilot advice. I'm not surprised another country has t

It shouldn't be forced, but some of us do use the mouse on a terminal window. I have more of a keyboard 'nipple' but it's conveniently right there when I'm typing and I don't have to move out of a standard typi

What they need is a giant sliding bar (like in old jail cells) that locks the overhead doors shut on takeoff, and won't get released until at the gate. Last time I flew on a commercial flight, I got clocked in the head by some jerk who

Trying to actually reach intelligent humans at these large companies can be a real pain. I've had similar issues with large providers doing stupid things, my customers blame me, and I can't do anything about it because I'm th

Who actually paid money directly to Google for this service? If your answer is 'not me', then I find it tough to complain.

It doesn't? The NSA can competently access your citizen-grade e-mail, that's it. When it comes to real terrorist communication, they are bumbling idiots. They are wasting their time and our money.

Same if you move physical locations and your mail forwarding expires. If you haven't logged in for 12 months, can it really be that important?

It does, any art really. If the software were the brushes, no piece of software is right for every artist. Should we trash people for making 'yet another social network' or 'yet another online map database'? This is even a smaller scale pro
