I have a fantasy of every botnet in the world visiting his site DDoS style, but without the DoS part, padding the list to be miles long of printed court evidence. GeoHot's blog, geohotgotsued.blogspot.com, specifically mentions that his hac

I found the original source of the malware release. If anyone wants to look at it, Googling for "Blackhole RAT" and visiting the result titled "Blackhole Rat Problem" will return the same result I found. You'll have to change your UserAgent

First place I noticed it was "New" Twitter. This article was posted on HN a little while after Gawker changed their design which explains why it was implemented and why it shouldn't have to begin with: http://isolani.co.uk/blog/javascript/

You can get newer releases from their page directly, in case anyone wanted to try navicat. It's a pretty good utility, though I personally still like to use the respective SQL server command line utility shells. It's a 30-day trial. http:/

Wikipedia was an article on the 2010-2011 Middle East and Arab wold protests, with quite an alarming map. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010%E2%80%932011_Arab_world_pr... I personally found it very inspiring to see that so many countries i

Technically, they aren't lying about the product here. The foam in the 555 model degrades the performance, compared to the 595. It is a lower performing product, and it's pricetag reflects that. I do, however, find it ironic that the $199 5

The article on Friday[1] about the ISP director who challenged his NSL mentions in both the Reddit AMA and his 27c3 talk that between about 2004 and 2008, the FBI served about 200,000 NSLs. [1] http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2208093

A picture right as it senses deceleration would be cool, at the apex of the fall, just to see what the phone could see at that time. Video might be fun also, though I don't know if watching blurry spins would be all that enjoyable in actual

Get a half dozen iTunes codes and post them in the Reddit thread as well. In my opinion, promoted ads on Reddit usually are plagued by Ad hating downvoters. Offering something for free breaks the "I'm just here to make money" barrier, and a

Where I live in the States, I pay $65 USD for 7MBit DSL with a 250GB softcap. I've only gone over the cap about 3 times in the 4 years I've been with my ISP, and it is never more than 300GB total that month, with the exception of this winte
