Gentoo saw the license expiring, and did a proactive thing: flipped the "fetch restriction" flag back on, forcing users to pull it manually and slap it into the right place to install/upgrade.
...soon, Team Fortress 2. This will be the next RedFort.
First, half the features in Gnome 1.x go in Gnome 2. Then the steady removal of options and features. Now they're *)!@#( with the window features that are standard on all windowing systems in the major OS's?!?
I'm glad I already moved onto KDE. I couldn't hack Gnome Option/feature Removal Syndrome (GOFRS).
The power of 4chan and Anonymous is tremendous. It must be held carefully. This is one good example of how to put this power for good instead of evil.
Sounds like you need a Drobo (from http://www.drobo.com./ The various units are expensive, and you'll probably need the Drobo FS if I read your post correctly. The upshot is, though, it's expandable to 20 TB of space. Just shove a drive in.
(Note: Not a Drobo vendor, just a fan who wants one himself)
At least they finally got it tested so it proved what it said. Isralies are picky to a fault.
But you can't ship 'em in yet. Limit's only one per person, so no gifting yet.
Seriously, reconnect. The keys used for the encryption will change, and it's multiply keyed to boot. Check the discussion on SSL (which SSH uses) on Steve Gibson's Security Now podcast. http://twit.tv/sn
Looks like Microsoft's Bing managers are on it. They'll make it worse in no-time flat.
BTW, the difference between a DDOS and a Slashdotting? You know why your site went down -- you got linked!
Simple:
1. Require all passwords to be Yubikey OTP passwords on any login prompt.
2. Refuse access, and only give them the logs manually.
3. When they shut your server down and open it up to yank the drive, hit 'em with a breach of lawsuit.
4. ????
5. PROFIT!
Depending on how capable your card is (decent 7-series NVidia or a good ATI), you may want to hit up HotHead Games and Penny Arcade Adventures' On The Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness (both episodes). This is a good 3D "It's your turn when you act first before anyone else" game, well worth $15 for each episode, and plays very well in Linux. Just turn off Compiz/Beryl; it interferes with anything 3D.
First of all, FAT is patent encumbered and Microsoft's willing to go to court to protect it; so that's out. That includes the old UMSDOS file system Linux had at one time.
Someone needs to make a good file system that matches FAT, but is more extensible. A good choice is ext2 now... if we dropped a few things that wouldn't work nicely. Like device nodes, pipes, and Unix sockets. Like ownership, since it's assumed that the person mounting the system would own the files on it, along with groups. Simply access restrictions; they wouldn't apply.
This will simplify the structure a bit, which is a nice bonus and could let it be put on floppies. In other words, it's a light, anonymous, extended file system. LAEFS.
I got an
All of this makes me think of what could be an Acme Instant Sentry. You throw a toolbox over, it rights itself, builds up a bit, and in seconds you got a limited capacity automated sentry. If there's room, just add a speaker and program it to say "Hell-looooooooo-hoooooooo? Can-you-come-over-here? There-you-are." *ratatatatatatatatatatat!*
