My SSIDs are IThinkIHaveAGenitalWartKhaleesi for my "public" VLAN (only has access to the internet, can't access other devices on the same network, can't access the router, etc.) and BobDolesHouseOfPain for my own personal devices, I can access the router admin page from that interface as well as my desktop and server.

I've thought about setting up an unsecured honeypot called "I read your e-mail" and then redirecting all of the traffic to a splash page that runs a script to tick a counter on my server and log the traffic. Living in NYC I always wanted to know how many people are in range of my wireless networks and how many people just jump onto the first open network they see.

Awww :(

The subway map is roughly geographically correct while not being all squished together. It's easy to see what stops you need to get off when you need to transfer and also it works as a real map for most tourists since a lot of attactions are displayed on the map (Rockefeller Center, Natural History Museum, Central Park, etc.) As a native New Yorker that uses a subway map almost daily, this circular design doesn't seem to add any benefit.

I work near Penn Station and it's pretty terrible but not nearly as bad asTimes Square. The obnoxious lights, the swarms of tourists, the constant noise. I know a few people who work overlooking Times Square and while it's a nice place to visit, you wouldn't want to deal with that every day. Plus to top it all off, everything around there is a tourist trap. There's practically no good food around (it's almost all chains since not many small places can afford the rent) and all of the prices are ridiculously jacked up. The best offices I've seen are around Chelsea and the West Village, and any place that overlooks the park.

Don't drones blast RF on known frequencies? Unless they're flying with auto pilot and just collecting data, but that would be dangerous in an urban environment with lot's of air traffic. How much would it cost to build something with an antenna that's just listening for broadcasts on these frequencies? You could even measure the doppler shift to see if they're coming or going, and at what speed. Listening for audible noise just seems useless anywhere outside of a big empty desert with a large directional microphone.

The way X11 does forwarding is very handy and useful, and I make use of it fairly often. But as usual, there's more than one proverbial way to skin the proverbial cat.

X11 forwarding is great for high speed and low latency connections such as a lan. Using it on anything else is asking for trouble, because if you lose your connection, you lose your app. Perhaps an improvement can be made to X11 forwarding in the new path forward (wayland) to make it more like screen where you can attach and detach to a running X11 app from a networked endpoint.

Remote desktop using RDP is superior to X11 forwarding for lossy connections because once the screen is loaded, very minimal draw/drag/etc communications are sent between the server and client for updates, X11 is far more data intensive for screen updates. And of course if you lose your connection (which I frequently do, trying to RDP from my cell phone), you'll get your apps back when you reconnect.

Having both X11 forwarding and RDP is a great choice, and I hope something similar to my aforementioned improvement makes it into the app.

People (even Iranian people) need to be able to manage their networks. Block too much and there wont be a functional Iran Internet for much longer.

And there's also safe=off in the url, so yeah I would figure it's NSFW.

Wisconsin is known for it's cheese. Or if you're in NYC I would visit the Cheese Factory on Bleecker street in the West Village. I'm not a big fan of cheese (except mild cheeses like Mozzarella) but they've got the best cheeses I've ever tried. The also have a cave downstairs for aged cheeses, didn't visit that since I'm not a fan. My roommates loved it (they're big cheese fans, got them some cheddar and gouda.)

I went through the same thing. I waited until freebsd 8 to try zfs after watching some videos about how awesome it was. I had been running multi TB storage arrays on lvm + raid1 on linux for years and decided to try and switch to ZFS. The lack of an fsck really shows when you get data corruption issues while resizing a pool. ZFS also lacks the capability of downsizing a pool, so when the upsize fails half way, you're fairly fscked. The recovery tools are just immature compared to even things like ext3. Trying to recover from the failed ZFS upsize involved raw disk editing to change uuids to try and move back to using an old drive that had good data.

I got the ZFS array working enough to pull off the new data and move back to an lvm append + raid1 setup. I've had failed lvm moves and failed lvm upsizes but the recovery is so easy because all the metadata about the array (and plenty of automatic backups) are stored in plain conf files. Ah the beauty of simplicity.

And speaking of bleeding edge, I've been playing with btrfs for some non-critical stuff and I've been very impressed. Much moreso than with ZFS.

I don't know why we would switch. Vista was such a shit show that Windows 7 was a blessing, but Windows 8 just seems to do nothing better than Windows 7 on a desktop compter (which is my primary use at home and at work) so why would I spend the money upgrading? I don't even want to pirate Windows 8 for my home computer just to play around. Used it a few times and I didn't like it, and I'm dreading not having Windows 7 included with our new computers.

Probably after Windows 7, it installed very quickly and easily last time I installed it (probably a month or two ago, I build a lot of computers.) Plus, you're referencing a 6 year old bug from an OS that has been followed by 2 major releases. I'm generally a Windows hater (especially 7) but you're arguing just for the sake of arguing.

The Logitech Harmony remotes require you to register online just to use them. There is no way to program the remote offline or without an account with Logitech. It makes sense that they don't want you having to download a massive database for every ir device you can posibly use but they should at least let you download a basic database for the devices you own.

The law also states that the sex offenders must pinky promise not to make any new usernames or online aliases, or else!

This is a ridiculous law that can never be fully enforced and won't work the way people think it will. What the hell are they even trying to accomplish with it?
