We need your email address to send you an invite.
Send me your email address and I'll give you an invite.
Seriously, everyone I know (at least in IT) has Google+...
That's interesting. Here in Portugal we also have that superstition, although no special word for it, afaik. Curiously, hours before the latest strong quake (6.0, Richter scale, 12/2009), I remember thinking to myself about the "earthquake heat" that could be felt on that particular hot night. Weird coincidence, I am sure, since the epicenter was located 265 km (165 miles) away.
I'm very happy with KeePass. It enabled me to have a poor man's authentication token:
Instead of using a password to unlock the database, I use a key file stored in an SD card. I mapped one of my laptop's multimedia buttons to the hot key that triggers the global auto-type feature, so that when I need to authenticate somewhere I just have to press that button and hit enter to unlock the database. The authentication is done automatically and the database stays unlocked for 5 minutes. When I leave the computer I take the card with me and when I get back all I need to do is insert it again. Pretty cool.
This system makes it tolerable to use a master key in Firefox and Thunderbird.
I keep the most important passwords (homebanking, for example) in a different database, requiring both a key file and a password to unlock it.
Besides Cisco docs, I recommend the following books:
Can't go wrong with these ones.
Who comes up with data structures that throw an exception because you asked it if something was inside and the answer was 'no'?
I'm intrigued... What data structures are you talking about? I don't remember seeing that behavior.
Many soundcards have a mode of recording called something like "What You Hear" (Creative, IIRC) or "Stereo Mix" (Realtek). If you select this as the recording device, you can record everything that is sent to the speakers ("what you hear").
In Windows 7, Realtek's Stereo Mix is disabled by default (at least I had it disabled), to enable it right-click on the speaker icon on the taskbar and select "Recording devices" (I don't have Windows in English, so the wording might be a little different). If your soundcard supports it, it should be in the list.
However, I prefer to either download the FLV from youtube and rip the audio or record a stream with VLC.
Er... I was actually thinking that was an incredibly generous cap.
Me too. Here in Portugal I have 60GB / month for 20eur (24Mbs) and it used to be much lower...
The mower's blades can't inflict serious wounds, the company insists
By previous boss, who retired and moved to Florida about five years ago, had one when he was still working.
Guess the wounds are kind of serious after all.
