We had our AWS account hijacked three years ago. Someone had taken over our admin email by hijacking the DNS. They had hacked into our DNS account (with another provider) and changed the MX for our domain. Then they contacted customer suppo

If they want this, they should give them the means to do that: birth control! For free!

Last year an MRI scan was made of my brain. This was part of a promotion research at the university. All I got back was a lousy screenshot of my brain. ;-) No but seriously - it was a big shock to see my brain in a picture. It is a really w

It's interesting that you say that the weaker states never should have agreed, while in the stronger states (I live in one), the opposite is the current opinion. Maybe everyone agrees on this point? I think that is the case: now (!) ev

Yes, I thought about that too, but I guess that UPS will not survive 18 years - the battery for sure, the device probably neither. Can you replace one without shutting down the server?

Last summer I did a workshop with the longbow. It's real fun, and has many links to meditation, finding your center etc. I had seen it before, never liked it, but it was great. In the end I shot at a 1.5 meter target about 100 meters a

What about logwatch? That can do the same and a lot more. You can set it to mail you daily, which gives you an overview who logged in and how often. With a weekly mail you don't get these details, but it might be good enough.

I guess pinyin is more like the German tv synchronizing English series. I live in the Netherlands, where we have subtitles on English shows and films, because that is much cheaper. So we're used to English, we all speak English. We hav

Even if there is no "diff", this is an extra backup. Any of those sites can go down I guess, then where are all those pictures?

All real personal stuff is done on my smartphone. I use 4G only at work, no work wifi. I do not open personal mail at the work computer. No Facebook, except sometimes on the phone. The only thing I do is reading and posting here and at seve

A while ago I read that societies around the equator have almost no schizophrenia. This was linked to vitamin D or UV-B, which we lack in the western world.

With AWS it's easy. You stop the machine, resize it to a bigger one with more CPU and/or RAM, then fire it up. This can be done in minutes.

A data leak is not the same as a security vulnerability. The data leaks refer to organisations having customer data which is hacked. They have to report this. This doesn't cover finding a leak in Flash.

This is nonsense, although it may depend on the kind of job you have. For most of us, we don't need to be there five days a week. You can plan around that. Of course if you have five people in a team and everybody has a different day o

It appears to me that RAM content is not cleared completely when you power down the device. Encryption keys may still be present in memory So powered down, you freeze the phone, which keeps the RAM at its current state, and then with some m

What is the status of that speed reading app? It would display each word in the middle of the screen if I remember correctly, and by that way you could speed up reading a lot. I don't remember the name. Maybe not recommended for a good

I've looked at what this is, but it's not clear to me. Is this an alternative to Tor? How can it enable users in China to surf the internet for free? Is it some kind of VPN? A short intro is welcome! :-)
