  • Back in the DOS and Windows 3.1 days, they tried to lock it down with whatever software they had. We found a way around it. Even the DOS based menu system, we managed to copy the menu software out with its configuration file. Then we experimented with the “encrypted” password in the configuration file and found out that if we removed it, the system would allow you to do anything but that also meant we could create our own password and look at the “encrypted” password. We quickly found out that it was just shifting the ASCII table. We then “decrypted” the school password. Such 12 your old hackers 😆


  • vi allerede har så mange overflader hvor solpanelerne kan blive installeret i stedet for

    Det er bare noget som tager lang tid at gøre. En mark er (relativ) flad og kan hurtigt få installeret mange MW solpaneler. Lige nu har vi brug for at der gøres noget hurtigt. Så kan man overveje, når vi forhåbentlig har fået solceller nok på tagene og/eller har fundet nye løsninger, at de gamle solpaneler på markerne kan blive pillet ned og natur plantet i stedet.

    Old but not necessarily out of date. The system is at a stable state. It’s working and we don’t want to make changes that can compromise stability. New features and other big code changes comes with increased risk of something breaking. Debian Stable means running code that have been tested and used a lot.

    Security fixes and critical bugs get back ported if feasible, or a package might get updated to a newer version.

    Encryption is not a panacea, because if someone ever forgets their password (something common for the layperson), the data on that drive is inaccessible.

    It’s because of stuff like this that Microsoft wants people to create an Microsoft account. Recovery key automatically saved to your Microsoft account. For business the recovery key can also be automatically saved in a central location.

    Debian 3.1, but was not successful in getting X to work, but didn’t put a lot of effort into it. Then I got Mandrake running with X, but went back to Windows. On a small computer, I got FreeBSD running as a server but never used it, so that went away again. Knoppix a couple of times to recover data from failed Windows installations.

    Yeah, it’s not until recently that I installed Debian 12 on a old work laptop and was very impressed. Now I’m on the fence of having a stable distribution or sumthin with newer packages. I love the philosophy of Debian and the wide usage on servers but Arch is personally also up my alley, however I have not used it at all.

    Det er ikke det samme produkt. Det er det de samme aktive ingredienser og i samme mængde, men andre egenskaber kan være noget andet, f.eks. smag og om piller er filmovertrukken, som kan gøre en forskel på hvor let det er at sluge. Dertil er noget medicin anbefalet at man ikke skifter mærke når man først er gået i gang med ét mærke. Edit: Bare for at tilføje at noget medicin kan også have andre medicinske egenskaber, som ikke er nævnt på recepten.

    Hvormeget bruger du hver side? Tænker at antallet af stoppet trackers er meget afhængigt hvormeget man klikker rundt og nogle sidder auto-genindlæser elementer løbende, som tæller op hele tiden.

    Og så er der måske også definitionsspørgsmål om hvad er en reklame og hvad er en tracker. Tænker at DR primært bruger trackers, men at nogle af disse tælles som reklamer.

    Jeg har ikke selv kigget på det, så overstående er bare mere generelt.
