Sure but not as risky as running MSExcel in the context of a user with permission to write to HOSTS….

Re: What's in a name?

Well were you able to resolve hostnames?

Re: Not Just Maps

It’s in Texas…

Re: Billing credit?

Yes

Sorry, I mean no.

Re: Will be interesting

As did first direct.

Re: We all know the best Bond film

Ampsolutely outstanding.

Re: Personal heaters

Does sound a little like you might benefit from a course to be honest

Re: I once had to do something similar in a Skoda...

Similar experience excepting the location was the wild dogs enclosure at West Midlands safari park and the warning was steam coming from the coolant tank…

Fun times…

Re: encryption?

The el reg article itself says ssh keys were found…

Re: "With no one onboard to fix it"

If you read the piece there’s actually no suggestion at all that the come home function hasn’t malfunctioned…

Re: Success Rate

And has yet to open - Reading I think I read is the upcoming inaugural outlet for the relaunch

Re: Hmm.

Well, it doesn’t to be fair it stands for Technology generally…

Re: "confiscated by the new freenode management."

You want canonical policing which entities can and can’t run Ubuntu? That sounds like the start of a very slippery and very pointless slope

Re: Dept of Corrections and Clarifications

Well top line you mean - they don’t actually know if they make a profit

Re: Dear Lord...

Yes yes I’ve told you it’s plugged in for goodness sake I just want you to fix it

It’s no different to how it was before - money laundering through mules of differing degrees of awareness.

There are sites I’m aware of where you can participate in this under the guise of exchanging other assets, and I’m not a criminal and have no interest in either Bitcoin or money laundering so safe to say there are no shortage of sites for exchanging illicit bitcoins for real world assets with the expected level of loss of value

Re: How long...

Well, we are all going to die…

Re: Certificates

The submitting party was called Extension- so in this case they could have signed the app with a certificate belonging to them and your check would have passed just fine, no?

Re: Curious....

At the very least sophisticated level, that one PC has access to multitudinous servers and file stores - else what’s the point of the PC.

But often it’s used as a stepping off point and either something worm like or even an actual human will go from

boxen to boxen, installing the utility of nastiness and then pulling the trigger when ready and encrypting everything

Re: It was the engineer in the DC with the keyboard

Coming soon to an episode of Who Me?….

Re: 30% is extortion, pure and simple

Well then your App Store is going to corner the market I should imagine, look forward to you bringing it to market!

I would think if they’re using the visible spectrum then there is room for improvement...

Re: Where’s the effing handbrake!?

11pm, Atlanta airport, left home almost 24 hours priory and could not figure that out.

Had actually decided to drive with the damn thing engaged and just had a pause when setting off - and checked and found it

Re: Printing?

Yes, unlike printing under Linux which has always been an absolute dream...

Re: "The sentence for refusing to hand over his password was increased to 2½ years"

Well that or they did defeat it, found nothing of value and didn’t want to telegraph the fact they defeated it

Re: Experience is the best teacher

How many days would be saved by smss and its brother in warning you that you were executing a selection and that immediately after the section is a WHERE clause you may have missed accidentally

Re: Tried all exploits, none worked. Yawn.

Surely all you’ve demonstrated is that your environment isn’t vulnerable? OS, processor architecture etc combination.

Or did I misread and you’ve tried every release of every district in a comprehensive combination of architectures?

Re: Despicable

Precisely, if you give the prospect of a (chance of a ) million bucks as barter for reducing salary ffs!

Re: Transfer of power

I think yes

Re: Amazon drivers

Certainly a step up from the DPD chump who left two boxes of mobiles out in the The rain immediately outside my unlocked, open porch - then legged it without bothering to let anyone in the house know they were there

Re: Just say no

Precisely this, and the ‘sacrifice’ of going without the odd bit of content (roulette wheel that whole side of this anyway, there one week gone the next as is true for Netflix) is in my view well worth it for making a moral stand and giving business to alternatives and supporting jobs with those instead

Ok so fibre to the wifi, if you must?

Re: Smart heating system?

Cosmonaut solution: use a pencil

Re: Can't put the toothpaste back in the tube.

Crucial though *a* tube vs *the* tube...

Re: The key in XP was a joke

The key was in a sticker on the Pc it was hardly a secret - or it was entered from a VL agreeement in which case again, hardly a secret?

If they have Portuguese assets then I would assume that irrespective of where the ownerships lies those assets are at risk

Re: Artificial problem generators

There’s a lot of opinion stated as fact there...

Re: This is to punish the UK

Nice try but you know perfectly well that there are a more significant number of localised TLDs that you can’t have, unless you operate or reside in that geography

Italy certainly used to be one, so don’t pretend it’s unreasonable for .eu to be reserved for the eu countries

Re: Social Distancing

Well, if you have a full tank of gas and an empty cupboard I don’t think the ratio is relevant.

Re: travel distance

No I think you are exactly wrong - so for example I drive around 35k miles/year as does almost everyone else in a similar job. I do 300 mile round trips every week.

How many of those are there? Judging by the roads, lots. Lots and lots, and the combined total is of significance

It just isn’t as straight as that though - so say you I hit your monthly spend cap on day 5 of the month - what happens to your data, VMs then? They have a cost associated with storage them so the only option then is to delete them immediately?

Even if your budget / quota is sophisticated enough to allow you to earmark some for that storage, generated user data etc still grows and has an ongoing cost requirement once the quota is reached

Re: Netflix

Well cut and paste would leave the first field blank - so that would fail the validation no?

Re: crowdsourcing the job gives Google

The fact it immediately follows the Russian story says everything...

Re: MP3?

Well you’d use monster cables, *obviously*

Well, both are true really - they were brought forward and up, because they were larger and those larger nacelles produced aerodynamic lift at high AoA hence reducing the force required on the stick
