Amazon might have worse safety and backup resources that you might've been led to think.

This class of devices is often made at a ridiculously huge volume and the cheapest way possible, so they're very likely to contain one-time-programmable devices with no test / debug lines.

Except that the CVV from the magstripe is missing - wich means ypu can only use the printed CNP CVV, ie. only use the card data for internet transactions.

I might add that as a level, but before the one that rm -rf's your homedir ;).

Of course, it all depends on the ISP. I've had nothing but denials over the years each time I've tried to request a static IP address, let alone PTR record delegation.

You will most likely be not able to host a personal email server from a residential ISP without an IPv4 address tunnel, anyway. Without a proper reverse DNS record and an IP address not from a residential pool, most properly configured serv

Well this is intriguing: http://crap.q3k.org/8e2fbb1393588d87f953d8c405ab9d101f07fc0d... I am really surprised to score 0, especially as I'm not an artist.

Is there any valid reason to run 32-bit systems in 2013?

Why the arduino? It servers no purpose apart from an overly complex GPIO expander - whereas not only does the RPi have a whole bunch of GPIO, if you need even more you can get a dirt cheap I2C expander that is way more reliable. This is wha

We use your eyefi server at our local hackerspace (hackerspace.pl). I haven't really touched the card myself (the setup was done by a fellow hacker), but I'll probably take a look at it some day, if there is at least some vague pr

My experience with embedded systems allows me to be fairly certain that this bugfest is due to an electronics engineer writing the software for the card. Way too often small R&D teams, especially working on new products, have EE people

I've been running my own mail, jabber and www server for over three years now, and I am extremely happy with it. If anybody is interested in my setup and/or would like to run their own, I'll be happy to write a quick guide&#x

Purely mathematically, you cannot assert that a certain value will appear in a certain timeframe - it's random!

Or you can use GPG or some other form of point-to-point encryption.

Maybe when you're not prepared - I used to have all the tools necessary emerged and ready to use. Not to mention that most tools that I met compiled under five minutes.

Not really much of a problem with the chipsets that I used (ralink ones) - the stock kernel drivers work fine. But I do remember that there used to be some problems with that. The fact that I use a distro which allows me to painlessly integ

To be honest, I still don't see the need for such a distribution to exist, as all the packages I ever needed during pentesting were available on Gentoo's Portage. When I've tested it, the mental overhead of having to run it on a VM, or even
