Comment Re:Ever hear of "sociology"? (Score 1, Interesting) 274

Of course you are right, but I find interesting that something as obvious as this is posted on /. You know, the obvious is often hidden more and more these days.

As for second languages, I master 2 languages fluently. I learned the second one at 18 using total immersion language learning. It is a shame that I never took the time to learn a third, fourth and fifth one or more this way.

I recommend total immersion for those wanting to seriously learn another language, you will experience what the poster is talking about even more deeply ;-)

this scales much better:
$IPTABLES -I INPUT -m set --match-set ipbl src -j DROP
$IPTABLES -I FORWARD -m set --match-set ipbl src -j DROP
$IPTABLES -I FORWARD -m set --match-set ipbl dst -j DROP
$IPTABLES -I OUTPUT -m set --match-set ipbl dst -j DROP

add an ip to ipbl set:
ipset add ipbl ${IP}

don't forget to block all ipv6 traffic if you don't need ipv6:
${IP6TABLES} -I FORWARD -i eth0 -j DROP
${IP6TABLES} -I INPUT -i eth0 -j DROP
${IP6TABLES} -I FORWARD -o eth0 -j DROP
${IP6TABLES} -I OUTPUT -o eth0 -j DROP

Comment Ain't surprised (Score 1) 125

This doesn't surprise me. I run modsecurity WAF and iptables, yes I know but iptables does the job for now, with custom rules and logging policies and it is amazing to see how many so called legitimate sites have been owned.

I used to contact site admins and participate in exchanges of offending IPs but I gave up a long time ago to run my own countermeasure system.

Boy we went a long way since the beginning with regards to that.
