LSB

Many thanks for being a lucky few. Package received, testing and setup will commence in the morning. Can't wait to dig into it :)

Having a payload of something like AutoIT or AutoHotkey for Windows would be a great early project for package uploading. It'd open the development up to a lot of users who don't want to reflash their teensy to change up behavior if it could act as a bootstrap into a higher level utility which could then worry about things like the GUI and mouse emulation in its own scripts.

Btw, to answer the original question: Hold down the Option (alt) key while starting and it will display the bootable devices in a menu. If it's gonna be able to boot from it, it'll be displayed there. (this is also the way to get into a Boot Camp partition, etc.)

This thing had actually inspired my final project in a class a few years back. We were working with some PowerPC dev boards and I wanted to show how something like this works. It didn't wind up quite as cool as the wifi bunny, being tethered via serial to a computer acting as a server/network bridge, but spitting out rss subject-lines on a tiny character display turned out to be quite impressive.

Hrmm, a Hacker Media talk at a hacker con.. The history of hacker communication and the rise of hacker media would be a good topic, as was suggested. As someone that is familiar enough with the history, though, I'd definitely want to see a mention of where hackers congregate to get their news and communicate these days. Going over how we got to where we are today would be interesting to listen to, but the mention of some new sites, forums, groups, etc of interest would give me something to take away from the talk as well. Otherwise it sounds like an interesting talk by itself to hear about some of the challenges of producing for such a niche audience. :)

One term to look for is the "Creative Commons" licensing. If you're using it for commercial purposes you'll have to watch out for the "Non-Commercial" license, but in general they're free to use. Hit up Flickr's tag clouds for 'cc' or 'creative commons' or just hit the CC's own search page: http://search.creativecommons.org/

Looking at the code it doesn't seem to attempt to decrypt any data using the key, it only tries to read the key using the OpenSSL library. For password-protected private keys, I'd imagine an attack is a simple task of iterating through a dictionary and popping out when the function returns a non-null value which will ultimately signify that the password given matches the password for the key -- which seems to be exactly what the code snippet does. Now if I could just get the libs in the right spot to compile it.. :~(

Passing size in, too, is just 'the way'. You always have to know where to start (iar being just a memory location) and how far to go, somehow, somewhere. PHP and its ilk merely hide that from you. And you can hide it from yourself, as well, with a class whose contents have as an attribute the length of another attribute, being the contained array. Just easier to keep track of it yourself for small things, hehe. And call it 'iar' all you want but don't cry when in a month you're looking at your code thinking "Initial Assessment Report? Institute for Aerospace Research? Idioms Are Radical?" ;-)

Hi :) I couldn't resist a thread for new people--seeing as I'm new here, and all~ Long introductions give me the heebie jeebies, so I'll keep it short. I'm a geek, have been since I was old enough to fiddle with things. I'm currently in college studying engineering, CE to be specific. When nongeeks ask me what that means, I have to tell them I just "make lights blink." I recently stumbled onto Hak.5 in a thread of pursuit that also turned up gems like DL.TV. I've been picking through the past episodes that seem most interesting and have enjoyed most of what I've seen, kudos for that. This seems long enough! Cheers~
