I'm on a large corporate network right now and I get responses back from `ping www.google.com`. But also this technique doesn't depend on ICMP that is just what the example happens to use. Pwnat itself uses only UDP for outgoing r

What you can do is basically use partially overlapping beams to energize an area smaller than any of the individual beams (think venn diagram). Its a similar technique (except in 2 dimensions) to radiation therapy where multiple beams of ra

Its not fraud, at least not as federally defined because that only covers money, property, or "depriv[ing] another of the intangible right of honest services". It does not cover information.

Git rebase interactive with fixup or squash will combine the commits into the first one. So the timestamp will still be somewhat reflective of when work is done (on average).
