They're inexpensive and I haven't had any downtime aside from scheduled maintenance. Plus, it's run by a group of Android developers (more commonly known as Team Douche, hence the name). http://tdrevolution.com/

Yes, my spell-check apparently doesn't cannons. Fixed in the posting on site, as well.

Although they've since been taken down, Kari, Tory, and Grant tweeted pictures from the bomb range yesterday, including said canons. Reproduced on my blog: http://laslow.net/2011/12/07/mythbusters-and-damage-control/

Actually, this is only a problem if you can actually get Lion to bind to your AD Domain in the first place. Stupid legacy .local domain suffixes....

He would move, but he's been deemed 'High Risk' so his government won't let him travel.

If I only had mod points... Seriously, do some reading - the tile UI isn't for desktop computers or normal laptops. Those users will get a slightly updated Aero UI by default.

Which is funny, because the last install of OS X I did (10.6.7, I think) didn't have it's firewall turned on out-of-box. If you connect your machine -- doesn't matter the OS -- without some form of hardware or software firewall to the internet, you're asking for trouble.

Seriously, if you knew how many websites were running on un-patched Fedora Core 1 installs you'd shit your pants. And the thing is, they don't usually make the news because the 'sysadmins' (often web developers who know just enough to be dangerous) have no idea their boxen have been rooted.

Getting the core switch out was the easy part. The hard part was getting the core switch out! Hehehehehe...

Seriously. I can't stand the thought of someone else having every password I use for everything. I use a system to generate passwords in a semi-hard-to-predict fashion for services I don't really care about, and have a number of 'strong' passwords for things that are important. Those passwords (and the information on where to use them) gets stored in a TrueCrypt container that I periodically update and sync with my VPS and my Dropbox. The TrueCrypt volume key isn't recorded anywhere - it's in my head, which is the safest place for it (because, seriously, if someone is actually going to go to the effort of torturing me to get my passwords, they're going to be in for a big let down).
