I could not agree more. If the op isn't comfortable airing the laundry here, then join a resistant force and do it there (GitHub). While it wouldn't help the community, it would help the quality of content to hackers if we open sourced some

Indeed. But what would it take for this website to make it to the top of a search engine, above the .gov you've mentioned? Is this subjective to that search engine's algorithm? (that's not a loaded question, as i'm not familiar with how any

I'm not sure how much of this is conjecture. My thinking differs from yours with respect to the following - "Albums don't really have years either. Or at least they have publication years. The songs have years. Normal studio albums have a c

Leveraging the 'watering hole' technique to penetrate into one network in order to gain entry into another more compelling system (the actual target), is clever but nothing new. The recon work represented by Semantec's technical report, how

The reason i don't think this is funny is because it's compromising the maturity of this community. Please create a new thread stating your grievances, instead of distracting things.

I agree. On the surface of things i'm completely put off, but i haven't completely lost faith in these guys. I think they should make the alternative way of signing up ("The e-mail way," as they have it on the front page) an equally sized l

Thanks for the read. It might seem strange to some but this is a solid image to see when you're camping - there are machine cycles going on that is keeping your data alive and you have no control over those machines, and you don't have your

One feature that i really enjoy is booting my system from GRUB using an ISO in the root directory of any partition on the local (USB attached, etc), or other disk.

Great post. To add to the usefulness of the protocol, I use the BitTorrent protocol on the WAN to sync files with my own computers and those of family members via my own/our tracker, and also on the LAN when i have to move large files and r

I've been trying to find out how much of this change has to do with iOS 6's Facebook integration. I remember having to re-do my contacts two weeks ago and this was a HUGE issue because, as Swang 5 said, i had to basically call or SMS everyo
