est: "When for whatever reasons EST is to be used, it is best to run it on fresh batteries."
est: "I have asked various musicians in a diplomatic way why they use EST."
est: <est> why you usin me, man??
coderman: "Numbers of times I have experimented likewise with EST" -- yes, i think we have all experimented with EST at one point in our lives...
est: "Obviously, fiddling with the controls of an EST is not quite as edifying."
est: "The tones of the Veena and all subtle inflections were suspended by the resonance of the coderman, so that they would hover in the air and could fully blossom."

so was the mac wireless hack really a clever PR hack?

coderman: the vulnerabilities are real, but don't appear to be in a factory mac installation if the path for exploit was indeed the ring0 beacon method.

Johnny Cache breaks silence on Apple Wi-Fi exploit
posted by coderman at 2006-09-04 18:37

coderman: <Johnny> all you hater bitches bring a mac to my pad and i'll show you what's up! fuckers!
coderman: seriously people, this is real. we've had known ring0 beacon exploits for over a year now. there are also historical attacks (now fixed) against WDS frames in certain drivers, that also lead to ring0. sure, these are harder to pull off than more reliable exploits, but that doesn't change the fact they exist and are workable.

coderman: <NSA Spook> hmm, next question...

Security and Identification Indicators for Browsers against Spoofing and Phishing Attacks
posted by coderman at 2006-09-04 18:08

coderman: ahaahhahahaha, when will people simply accept the fact that the browser is not a passable secure interface?
coderman: a secure interface that cannot be spoofed is the console, at boot. anything else is an approximation of varying difficulty, some hard (secure window decorators outside of app control) to trivially spoofed (XUL browser facade).
coderman: besides, the new rootkits render this question antique

NSA collects and stores all encrypted transmissions
posted by coderman at 2006-09-04 17:56

coderman: yeah, we knew this already i guess..
coderman: so when the large qubit quantum computers hit the scene late this decade or early next the NSA is going to have a field day hitting "REWIND" on all those encrypted key exchanges captured by Narus feeds all over the backbone!
coderman: and you thought the MD5/SHA1 breaks were bad! hahahahaha

NickleHydride: similarities between Roman treatment of Julius Caesar, and the traditions of the catholic/orthodox/protestant/lutheran etc church
NickleHydride: I think the essay ignores other christian traditions such as the gnostics ..
NickleHydride: line on the left, one cross each...
NickleHydride:
NickleHydride: "Each copy was made by hand. Thus errors cumulated quickly. Later attempts of correction inevitably led to more errors: so-called corrections which make things worse and scholarly corruptions."
NickleHydride: does give rise to an error in replication
NickleHydride: rend unto caesar that which is caesars
