i need to find my last pic i took on CoD. i got to end the game with a nuke for my fist time. did it ninja style with commando, tactical knife, and marathon. it was awesome. just ran a big circle around the map and ended up getting behind the enemy lines constantly. died i think twice

ill be going to the bookstore tomorrow (i live in the middle of nowhere so its about an hour drive to the nearest one) and im wanting to pick up something interesting to study. i was wanting some suggestions on good books over pentesting. preferably using linux systems but windows wouldnt be bad either. nothing mac related though (despise mac). ty for any suggestions

well the main reason i need the software is that im not in a good enough financial situation to invest anything into my guitar. im playing a nice guitar(epiphone g400 1966 limited edition with silver burst) but all i have to play on it with is a crappy little travel amp. i have no effects nor the cash to get them. as far as cables go that cable in the pic is a standard guitar cable (not sure what they are called either) but i dont have any way to directly connect my guitar to my laptop, thats why im wondering if there is a software that can apply these things to incoming sound from a mic or something because i can use a standard 3.5mm headphone cable with 2 male ends to plug my travel amp into my computers mic jack. not very clear but its all ive got lol. i can barely afford to keep it strung when the strings start to rust

think reason would work connecting my amp to my comp with a cable with 2 3.5mm male ends?

Thank you very much. Its bad enough i have to use a crappy practice amp. Don't need to deal with this issue when it should be easily resolved with the right software lol.

i was curious if there were any other guitarists that knew of any programs to mimic effects (distortion, chorus, overdrive, etc, etc, etc) and apply them on the fly while recording. the main reason being that i have little money to spend on the hobby but i do enjoy it and it would be nice to have the ability to use a bit of distortion even if the quality suffers without the hardware.

gotta love it when people hiring dont know what they are talking about and pass you over because you dont have the right words in your resume.

whats really a crime is these pricks passing themselves off as IT professionals and surfing facebook all day...

its like that in several different businesses but this one worried me because its a state funded agency with stations all across TN. hundreds of people put in their personal information at each place. im not sure if its all accessible via wifi or if its all hardcopy but either way this is still a very bad thing.

i was looking at a CEH too. just because ive looked at the training course before and its got a lot of info that would be nice. though im sure i could just pick up a few reference manuals off demonoid for the course and learn most of what they'd teach

the old episodes still contain some useful info. including intro's to different pieces of software to catch you up to current releases. plenty of how-to's that aren't outdated yet. and of course who can forget when evil server came into the picture. that in itself is worth the dvd's

i went to the career center lately and sat down to do some research on the computer. no firewall. no password on the router. WEP encryption (didnt need it anyway the password was the phone number). no blocks on ANYTHING on the computer. no locking you to the browser. nothing. it was horrible. i could have half the town's lives in my hands in a matter of minutes. and i could have done horrible things. they had no locks on anything so i could have setup a telnet or ssh server without any problem (i was able to enable the built in iis services) and the really bad thing is. when i offered my service (cheap too. $20 an hour on an as needed basis. mainly because i dont have any certs so low price is about all that gets me a job) they said they have a full time in house IT specialist....... this is just horrifying to me. I'm just glad i never gave them any real information (i just wanted to see if there were any openings around) because it would have been laid out on the table for anyone with a brain.

oh how i wish. sort of a trial by fire. honestly if the employer doesnt know anything about the job hes hiring for then (unless its just a short term job) the interview is archaic and full of fail. you dont know what someone is capable of in a 30 minute face to face and calling 3 people who have no reason not to lie anyway. im just lucky that the "who" i work for is someone big in a town where who you are matters. and the place is just big enough to use computers for business but small enough that nobody knows how to use them edit: though i gotta say it worries me a bit. i went to the career center lately and sat down to do some research on the computer. no firewall. no password on the router. WEP encryption (didnt need it anyway the password was the phone number). no blocks on ANYTHING on the computer. no locking you to the browser. nothing. it was horrible. i could have half the town's lives in my hands in a matter of minutes. and i could have done horrible things. they had no locks on anything so i could have setup a telnet or ssh server. and the really bad thing is. when i offered my service (cheap too. $20 an hour on an as needed basis. mainly because i dont have any certs so low price is about all that gets me a job) they said they have a full time in house IT specialist....... if i wasnt worried theyd try and press charges (and they would try) i would have explained the situation and fixed some stuff. but what can ya do

again i gotta apologize for leaving out info i have 2 partitions on my harddrive. one for vista (about 140gig) and 1 for linux(about 20gig) im assuming its a vista issue because i can boot into linux without any issue whatsoever. repeatedly and nothing even close to what happens with windows. im gonna adjust the power settings now and once i finish my torrents and backing up all my data ill restart and test different solutions. im thinking theres something wrong with the harddrive (at least the windows partition. i may just not understand how partitioning works but the way it acts seems physical considering the nature of HDD's in general). if my setting changes in windows dont fix the problem ill load up a live linux distro and see if i can repair the harddrive. if worse comes to worst i'll wipe the harddrive entirely and start from scratch. once ive gotten off most of my personal files and what programs i can salvage it wont be a big deal to re-install windows though if i can get the cash i need for gas to and from college for a month ill be able to afford a new laptop from living expenses anyway so if i have to wipe the harddrive i may just turn it into a linux box with backtrack and ubuntu. ill post more info as i work on it. tyvm for the help

yeah im looking into ccna as well. my biggest problem finding work isnt that i cant perform (ive done work for 3 business so far and they all stopped using their previous contract IT workers. they charged 4x what i do and couldnt do a lot of what i offered) its that i cant get a business to consider me without something in writing to show i can do what i say i can.

thats what im thinking but its not just that. i cant get it to read cd's anymore either. for some reason it writes just fine. but i cant get it to read. i was trying to boot up a vista recovery disc since that has helped startup issues before but it wouldnt read. it sounds like the drive cant get it up to speed and ive had that problem with old game systems so i opened the drive and started it spinning fairly quick and closed the drive like i used to with my ps1. it starts to read the disc and then stops. tried cleaning the lens but it hasnt helped. im running a chkdsk right now to check the hdd. if no errors come up im gonna try a defrag. ive used windirstat and cleaned off a bunch of trash recently. if chkdsk shows something ill edit this post edit: i forgot to add the computer is a gateway laptop model w350i edit2: the chkdsk results so that didnt tell me anything new. i have my computer automatically doing chkdsk once a week and saving the results in a log file for a month. going back over the logs theres no abnormalities in them either. defragging now edit: wouldnt defrag. so i tried running chkdsk again and it said there were errors and needed to be fixed with /f. so i ran with /f and i have to restart. so im gonna try and hope it starts back up

thx for the suggestions, ive got some certs to look into. was also considering network+, A+, and a cwnp

yay for more vista issues >.> Anyway a proper startup on my laptop into the windows partition is it loads up the initial splash screen, then the screen goes black where there is no power to the screen, then the screen gets power but remains black, and it brings up the loading screen and then login. 9 of 10 startups recently it has gotten to the point where theres no power (assuming no power due to no backlight) to the screen and stays there. to see if it was just a slow boot i left it for 45 min and it was still at that. so i have to do a hard shutdown and restart from the beginning. at first it would work the second time. then the 3rd or 4th. but last night i rebooted 12 times and it would not work. i booted into linux to do some web surfing but there were files and thing i needed in windows and linux couldnt even mount the partition. i tried to force it to mount and it disappeared from the places list and the command to mount wouldnt even give an error. this morning 3 more reboots got windows working and now i need to find out why and fix the problem. ive done about 10 minutes of googling so far (and im going to continue) but in the years ive been here ive found the people on this forum more knowledgeable than any i find from google. any help is appreciated. i can still use linux for work for the most part but i still need my windows partition.

I started doing some contract IT work recently around town (setting up networks, securing networks, fixing printers, cleaning computers, upgrading systems, etc, etc, etc) and its hard for me to find much work. I was lucky enough to get to know the ex mayor's wife and got some work for their business and right now thats the only source of income for me. They are great connections to get work around town but its really hard for me ton find work with no certifications or degrees to my name. I just need to save up enough cash to cover myself for a month into college until the GI bill kicks in. After that i'm home free. But it would be a lot easier for me to find work to save up if i had something to put on a resume. I was wondering what kinds of certifications would be a good idea for me to try and pick up. Money is a factor in what exams i can take but if the certification is good enough and would provide a good resume boost then i dont mind investing the cash. But with the knowledge the people have around here i think quantity tops quality in this town. so the cheaper the better. I really want to work on networks, but im going to college for software development once i can afford it. So im open to working in pretty much anything as long as im working with computers. preferably no hardware work as i dont have a lot of experience with it. I'm better on the software end. Can work with windows and linux. and have a mac to learn on, though i cant stand mac. anyway i appreciate any suggestions.

i wish i still had screens of people accusing me of aimbotting on wolfET. i got it regularly XD. kd ratio of 20-1 usually unless i was sniping then it was closer to 40-1 on average. some better. some worse.

for those who may be interested i found a good place http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/opensour...-android-devel/ its a fair intro to developing for android with a simple example. it wont teach you java but i you know java its a good way to get a jumpstart. while i may have found a place, more is always appreciated. especially i you can find some coursware like stanford engineering everywhere edit: sorry or double post. hit wrong button. sleep deprived lol

not quite what i was looking for but it helps :) ty

im working on developing for android and am in need of a good place to get me used to the SDK. and a refresher on java wouldnt hurt either. anyone have any suggestions?
