This was fun :) Ideal break while working on my thesis.

Why would it be better if it was open source? One could just give 'innocent' source code along with an infected binary (and since almost nobody compiles from source...).

:lolflag:

That's what I was saying? Okay, maybe we were having a misunderstanding :)


I agree with that entirely, perhaps the difference is that I was mostly thinking about the 'finding out purely online'...

1. I talked about 'learning about anonymous networks', because you seem to think your ISP can simply look at your traffic and find out who you're communicating with. In circumstances without...

Yes, I know that... Like said, that's still not useful to them if you use an anonymous network (edit: it does have some use, to find out if you're running Tor, and to find out about the first hop....

What exactly are you saying here? I assume with 'identify you at a packet level', you mean you can check what the packets look like and see that you're running Tor or I2P. That's correct. Still,...

Yes, it's (relatively) easy to hide on the internet. Use something like Tor or I2P :) It would be extremely difficult to trace communications back to you then.

That is total utter ******** (no offence :-p ). Viruses don't magically fly towards a Windows PC, you know ;) Vista has improved a lot on security, and Windows XP wasn't too bad either (though...

Okay, it would seem I forgot the 'headphone' switch.

For anyone else who might need it: go to the sound icon in the top right of the screen, right-click and select 'Open Volume Control', then to...

Here's the info:
-originally, everything worked fine
-I don't reboot often, so my uptime was 21 days when I rebooted
-after reboot, sound no longer works when using headphones
-my motherboard is...

There's nothing wrong with Cedega, and I'm sure it helps lots of Linux users.
But this person was talking about supporting the wine developers, and getting a Cedega license is NOT the way to do that.

Cedega has nothing to do with Wine, they forked from Wine long ago ;-)

So getting a Cedega license won't help Wine at all.

It was of course much simpler (but it still looked wicked cool :) ).
The basic idea was: you put coloured balloons on their fingers (in bright colours, so they're easily distinguishable), and stand...

Actually, some people had to implement a similar system for a project at our university:)

This is simply because they asked Akamai to do load balancing for them, and the Akamai servers run Linux.
The Microsoft servers do run IIS on Windows.

Wow, problem solved :)
I simply deleted
/var/lib/dpkg/updates/0052

During an update (after installing Hardy 8.04), my computer crashed (I had an APIC error), which seems to have corrupted dpkg.

When I go to System > Management > Update-Manager, I get a warning...

I know it would suck, especially for something like Tic-Tac-Toe, but I figured the idea would be interesting :)
Maybe I should have mentioned that :oops:

Or if you want to make it really complicated without reason, you could create a neural network and train it to solve the Tic Tac Toe game :-D

What happened is that something changed on the server hosting the test, so when it can't find a page, it returns a 200 status message, instead of a 404.

For a correct Acid2 test:...

It's actually the Acid2 test that's currently broken. Try in Opera, it'll fail too.

I think I'm getting closer (though I haven't managed to compile the module yet).

The command:


gcc -c -O -Wall -D__KERNEL__ -DMODULE -I /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.22-14/include/ speaker.c 2>...

Okay, I checked /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.22-14, and there's no README file there. I also tried various includes with gcc, and they all seem to fail.
I'm kinda lost here, I'm afraid.
Any hints?
...

Ah, I didn't know that.
I had a class today, in which we compiled the same module, with the gcc -c -O speaker.c command, and it worked fine. I assumed it would be the same here.
