Do you mean that their server IPs got blacklisted? Or did the URL shortener domain just get added to a URL blacklist?

The "website" is at http://urlte.am , but it only includes a placeholder (the content intended for it currently resides at https://github.com/soult/urlteam-stuff/tree/master/website ). We also have a page at the ArchiveTeam website ( h

While it is a funny play on all those .ly domains and the fact that vb.ly got seized by the Libyan government, it is my opinion that yet another URL shortener is a stupid way of protest. Let me explain: I work with the Urlteam, a group of p

Here are two big reasons why not everyone has a Flattr button on ther website yet: - To put the button on your website you have to also be a paying Flattr user (pay a minimum of €2/month). - You are forced to pay a hefty 10% cut of everythi

This is not about the Github repository of the original developer. Someone managed to download a tar archive of the repository from github (after the repository was removed from github) and uploaded it to his public dropbox folder.

You are probably referring to this[1] FAQ entry. As I understand it they provide domain registration on a cost-recovery basis and thus have no incentive to answer support requests for customers who only use NFSN for domain registration. I w

Well, somebody has to say it: URL shorteners are so 2010. Now it's mostly cleaning up after failed shorteners.

I would just like to point out that Moxie Marlinspike is a hypocrite. Just two years ago he cried foul when an ISP revoked his SSL certificate because he provided falsified (whois) information [1][2], and now he cries foul because ISPs don'

Do the keys look somehow special or impressive? $10 for a pretty unique keychain doesn't sound too bad.

You could use DNS to map from a domain to a bitcoin address. In the Bitcoin forums people are actually working on a way to map email addresses to a bitcoin address. However, using IP addresses for Bitcoin transfers is insecure because you a

The problem is that we mostly make stuff up as we go. With geocities, it was basically wget + rsync. With Yahoo Video it is wget + youtube-dl. Not many of us are programmers and at first there was nobody around who was able to fix the UTF-8

I don't think that it will become a problem. BitTorrent enjoys widespread use for legal purposes like distributing Linux distros, open data, etc. Homeland Security hasn't caused any trouble for legal downloads yet. The bigger dangers are fi

That's similar to my private website (soultcer.com). I use git to create and store the content, and a wiki as content management system. It's nice to work on your website, and all you need is a git push for deploy. If I make a mistake or so

You could use git directly for metadata instead of relying on some JSON file. Git will tell you when an article was created and by whom. It will also tell you when and by whom each edit was made.

This is not scp's fault, it really is buffer bloat. It is noticeable in DSL connections, but it is worst with 3G connections. When I run some (down/up)loads via my UMTS dongle, I easily fill the buffer in my modem, the buffers at my ISP. I

We have one carrier offering an unlimited 3G plan here in Austria. They don't limit you or shape you traffic when you use too much (I had 80 GB traffic last month). The bad thing is that their network is often an order of magnitude slower t

Hi, I am also interested in karmawhores.net, I liked the website and would like to see it back up again (it would be awesome if you still have the db + source too). If edash doesn't want it, you can mail me @ soult@trid.inbox5.com.

I agree with you at most points, just two things: a) SSL is worth jack shit. It only tells me that some person paid some obscenely large sum of money to some company so that my address bar glows in green. CAs do a very bad job at verifying

Use DNS. If a.gtld-servers.net (or whatever server the registry uses) doesn't have NS records for the domain, it doesn't exist. Be careful, some registries don't require that you set a nameserver (most do). For those you will have to fall b
