  1. Yeah annoyed me too, fucking knob heads run this place. Look below the post and you shouls see a list option. Okay you probbly didn't mean what I did, but you shoud know by now. Hak5 changes, for no reason. Or rather it changes to make things worse. But anyway, it's an option the user can change, that annoyred me about a Defcon post. I'm not the only useless poster around here, don't force me to look at the shit before I get to the pin.
  2. Foster's is good for a cheap fix. Anyway, next you'll be telling me you don't have BBQ's on a daily basis. Do you know what it was like when you had a crush on a teacher when you were 10? And those dreams come to an end... This is how I now feel towards Australia. I was meant to be going for a wedding this December, I think I will pass now. Yes I was just going for the beer and BBQ's.
  3. Well yeah... If you change your desktop environment you will lose things that are not standard. That doesn't mean you cannot add the shortcuts or 'launchers' yourself. If you're using BT as your main OS then just do it when you need something, if not... Who cares what it looks like. It's functional.
  4. If offers are allowed, it should be a rule that the seller say if they have it advertised elsewhere. If it's the type of item/product that would sell here, maybe try here before the local paper for example. If I advertise here and someone likes it, and I post saying "Oh I sold it to my neighbour yesterday". If they give a great offer fair enough. But I mean more like other auction sites. If it's a respected member of the forums, trust that the item exists and works. If they don't, link to ebay or something with or best offer. Just an idea.
  5. I didn't have any idea who they guy was. Just what he said didn't make much sense. There are many strange things with the Aussies, I have family out there now. I thought you all drank Foster's and were similar to us, I heard you don't drink Foster's and now this guy...
  6. Hmm, this should give some more info http://www.apc.com/resource/include/techsp...base_sku=BE550G I don't know the laws over there, but generally here you can't just return something if you don't like it and is fully functional. It's up to the sellers discrection. Of coure you can always lie and say it's intermittent :)
  7. Just saw this. Maybe I didn't put it across well. I mean the people who claim, if you are going to use Linux you should support Ubuntu. If that's what you thought I meant, I thought I would give a video... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HnqwJRgCsmo Just a quick search in youtube. Idiots use computers, look I use this forum... Fan boys who are public are usually a little dumb.
  8. I would say you've done far more than what a scrpit kiddie could do, or be bothered to continue. Unless what you have is worth something you should be fine, unless someone is trying to hack you for making a point.
  9. Even with that monitor I would have thought it should kick out 2 hours. Has it had a full independant charge before testing? I.E. You charged it for 24 hours before using it? If so, take it back. If they give you shit simply lie. It's a cruel world.
  10. It could have issues. But I'm assume you're using the ath9k driver? In which case I don't know what it going on, it's probably an easy fix, I have used that driver with ease. modprobe maybe?
  11. Ah, so your wireless won't connect. I've never had this problem, usually you would select the WAP and then eneter the passcode. If no one answers soon I would check your chipset, and see if anyone is having problems with them. Obviosuly I don't know what you're using...
  12. ASBOS are no longer? To be fair did they really work? I saw many news reports years ago that they made no difference. Chavs are like slinkies, useless but fun to watch fall down stairs. An old boss told me that... I wish I was still at Uni!
  13. I don't use one. A DS I mean, but I would be interested to see if it actually makes it hard to obtain. I mean, weed is illegal, if you want it it's not hard to get.
  14. You mean you just want to scan for them? Plenty of choice, kismet, airodump... Sorry for the crappy answer, but is that what you mean? If you're running BT4. You can do airodump --help, you can scan all or specific channel et cerera
  15. I would say it's pretty clear it isn't all above board. There is no reason a customer would be witheld that unless 99% of their customers are in the same position. Like said, I wouldn't worry about telling them that this smells fishy. I mean, they're in their full rights to find out the truth. It doesn't hurt you either way.
  16. I still have plans of being there. IG, are you planning on changing anything? I assumed you were grouped for that reason. I'm sure it won't put anyone off your talk.
  17. You mean like http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki ? Could work, but you need people to be active and write good content. And like you say, some of what you wrote got removed. It will need to be moderated.
  18. It would have taken you less time to upload the source than it did uploading to mediafire. I'm not hating on your efforts, but I prefer HP with my bacon. You get me blood? Yeah, I'm hip... Anyway, share the source for the sake of it.
  19. Boooooo... Fuckin' Booooooo. I dunno, if anyone wants a laugh well unless you are like this guy, someone sent me a video talking about this guy. He calls himself AppleSoldier. I don't think he is actually on crack, he just looks that way. http://www.youtube.com/user/AppleSoldier?blend=2&ob=1 It was this video I was sent to... If anything, nobody here should worry coming across fan boyish when this exists.
  20. Depends what kind of interaction you want between the systems. I assume you want more than just connecting them into a switch, router = web et cetera. You didn't mention anything about what you actually want out of it, or what you will be using. By PC do you mean Windows? Is there going to be a server? Will that be Microsoft Server? I don't know much about Mac, but it has Windows sharing, Linux will have Samba. I mean, you have lots of options. But it's not easy without having some kind of idea of what the company already has, what their budget is, what the future goals are... What licenses do they have, what is worth using and what's not.
  21. Ubuntu or some spin of Ubuntu is a good place to start IF you were looking to replace your Windows machine. You're not though. The guide you get with Gentoo is pretty well written, you will get introduced to the file system and the components that make up the OS. That doesn't mean you couldn't get this from another distro, but what's the point in using a distro where "everything just works" when you're not using as your main system and you want to learn? You'll turn it on and say "Oh, it looks kind of like Mac. Nice? What now?" Like I say, most distros have a goal. See which one suits you but it really isn't going to matter, you can jump everyday if you really felt like it.
  22. Depends what you want out of it. You say you have plenty of time and it's not your main OS. If you really want to find out more about linux and have the time, well have fun with Gentoo - some call it fun. Other than that it usually comes down to packages and management. If all you're going to do is browse the web, many will suit. However you tend to find programmers of certain languages like certain ones et cetera. If you want to try FreeBSD but not so sure what you're doing, look at PCBSD. If you like new features Fedora is popular for this, you can make use of the rawhide repository, this is a daily/nightly build of the latest packages. So it's not very noob friendly in the sense if something goes wrong you're probably not going to know how to fix it. Basically check out http://www.distrowatch.com , read what some of the top distros are about and see what takes your fancy. You can always ditch it.
  23. I agree with your original post. There are far too many Linux users who try to belittle anyone else, even new Linus users. And this pisses me off something rotten. I am very unpopular when I say I don't hate Windows or Microsoft, I actually like them. I have an Xbox, I would like the last Zune etc. However I user Linux, I do this because I found myself using Live CDs too much, so too the plunged as my main OS, and have grown to think it's better. I never tell people to use it, or what distro to use. I hate people who claim not using Ubuntu hurts GNU/Linux. Fuck off, I don't use Linux to show my disgust against a company. I do however like the idea behind free software,but yeah. I still vote for a rant thread! Oh yeah, I dislike the whole idea using Linux makes you uber leet or any other shit, I have no idea how this computer actually communicates with this thing called the kernel, I know the name but shit, it doesn't interestme. I'm dumb as fuck as still use it. However like I say, I rarely use BT now, I just run things from my main OS.
  24. It's just the way they did it I find strange. I don't know how people feel who actually run Linux on it.
  25. Nokia N900, will run the new neopwn mobile Backtrack with packet injection, don't know if the 810 has the same chipset. There are plenty fakes about that run the debian OS< so should run BT fine. Don't know enough about the 810, but I imagine it is pretty well priced 2nd hand.
