I disagree. THIS is the best 404 page ever: http://www.homestarrunner.com/notarealpage

I was unaware that companies like AT&T didn't have shoes! Do you think it's by choice or a forced custom?

It's a mentality that is lost on what has become the "modern hacker", not the hacker as defined by rms and his peers.

Being a hacker in the true sense of the word is being someone with an obsessive curiosity about how a system works, what makes it tick, how can I change it, etc. With that in mind, why don't you just start toying with your own system and see what you can figure out instead of falling back on someone else's research and knowledge? Someone mentioned backtrack earlier, boot up backtrack and start playing with the tools provided, there is EXTENSIVE documentation on these tools and how to use them.

It's not "cool", it's Commie bullshit!

Pseudocode! But seriously, simple as in easy to learn: Java Simple as in low-level, bare bones, brass tacks, screw-it-up-and-break-your-computer: Assembly, with C at a close second.

This error typically occurs when there is an error in the query. What you can do is add the following immediately after you execute the query: if( mysql_errno() > 0 ) { print "'" . $sql . "' - "; print mysql_error(); exit; } If there is a problem, you will then see the actual mysql error and what the actual query you ran was.

Basically, anything that comes out of my bosses mouth.

Security is not about being impervious to attack, it's about not being the low hanging fruit on the tree. In other words, you can't be totally secure (it's impossible and a pipe dream) but you can make yourself less attractive to attackers. If you make your system (or data) more difficult to get at than your neighbor, an attacker will go after your neighbor because there is less effort involved.

Defcon is an amazing experience that will leave you dead tired at the end of the weekend. * If you want to meet people, you will. * The talks are good, but the great ones fill up quickly. * There are a lot of parties at night, but most card at the door. * Don't expect to be able to pay cash for your hotel room, the hotel will actually turn you away for this. * Check the receipt when you check into your hotel, its possible that there could be a mix up and if you don't take care of it quickly enough you could be out of a room. * In my experience, the wireless network isn't as hostile as everyone makes it out to be. Just (as a precaution) don't do anything sensitive in the clear on this network. * Don't eat at the Riv! There are plenty of off-the-strip restaurants nearby that are loads cheaper. IIRC, there is a grocery store not too far away either, from which you can get food to make your own meals in your room for even cheaper. * Do unto others... If you're nice to the goons, they'll be... not... terrible? to you :P Same goes for everyone else. I had a guy ask me once to jump in line ahead of me, b/c he was in a rush. I let him in and got my items paid for and an invite to a party out of it. I feel like Defcon is growing faster than its infrastructure, which is making things burst at the seams so to speak. I hope they can expand, allowing for more people because Defcon is an experience I never want to give up.

Prior to the upgrade, the iPhone disregarded the connection rules established by the Exchange server. For instance, the if the server demands the client use encryption, the iphone would disregard and still connect in the clear. In the upgrade, Apple finally made its ActiveSync abide by the rules established by the Exchange server. Therefore, since the iPhone can't do encrypted mail traffic, it can't connect to the Exchange server.

I had to hit the job market in May looking for a new job. I sent out literally dozens of applications finally giving up any criteria I had for a job in hopes of finding ANYTHING. I was lucky enough to find a stable (albeit dreadful) job in Corporate America. Rkiver, I wish you luck in finding a new job before things get too bad for you.

I have one, what do you want to know?

Y'all are crazy...
