  1. My man said he want that MAX money! Nothing else to say that my team didn't just say for me. Holding Spurs under 100 and winning, shoooooooot.
  2. And for #10,000... **** Dallas.
  3. Second game in a row we've let somebody have 60+ points by halftime. This negates anything postive we're acheiving on offense this year, it has to stop. That has nothing to do with refs, that's on us.
  4. Job has me studying for MCSA for server 2012 R2, been working on 70-410 since late August and doing study questions now. Come to acceptance that as much as I want to focus on cybersecurity, I keep feeling like I have to wait my turn and this is all part of working my way to it. Been really tough maintaining balance in my life while I'm in a field where I'm basically a late starter and dealing with people coming up taking the same CompTIA certs I have now while they were in high school (I didn't even finish high school). I've met people who cheat their way through these things and I cannot bring myself to do it (feel it will hurt me more then help having the certs and not actually having the skills or knowledge people expect me to have after passing). Anyone have experience with these types? I definitely love IT more then I care for the industry itself at this point, but I imagine anyone that loves computers enough will put up with the dark side of it, most like any other industry. Edit: As for Tor, I've been waiting for the Astoria browser to come out of a while now. True some of the exit nodes are crooked or even outright monitored now, though you can limit the nodes you use. Kind of just gotta treat it like another layer of security at this point if you are going to use it, not a fix it all.
  5. I respect the hell out of Orcas. Not only do they invent new ways to kill prey, they have no problem teaching it to other Orcas they run across. Came across cool article on theories why they don't eat us: http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/2011/07/20/why-killer-whales-don%E2%80%99t-eat-people-where-science-and-legend-meet/ Any way, was watching Jurrassic World the other day, and remember the first goat scene in the T-Rex pen. Can see it saying, "What's the fla-a-a-re for?"
  6. Ya, only going to be okay playing this fast if we stay committed to defense. Still want to see more attacking the paint, which I'm seeing more in the second half.
  7. I'm just sayin, I've never seen them in the same room together...
  8. First preseason game, but what I'm looking for is not giving up on the defense that got them here and hitting those wide open shots Wall get us. We'll see what happens from there, good start.
  9. When you have people going on stabbing sprees in other countries, I cannot get behind the idea (which would never happen btw) or getting rid of all guns in this country. This is a mental health (even soci-economic) matter as well, and the longer we keep arguing about the single root cause of all this versus the multi-prong issue it is, the more people are going to die. Historically, several countries have their distinict advantages to help keep from being invaded or collapsing in the modern era. Russia has it's winters, China has its rediculous population numbers, we have two oceans and a heavily armed civilian population. I'm not a consitutional lawyer, but every time I look at the 2nd amendment and come back to the time frame they wrote that, its hard for me to deny that was a major factor in the decision to add it.
  10. If we played better, we would have won anyway. Reaper's breakdown was amazing, but as believe he mentioned, we left too many plays on the field to overcome these "mistakes" or outright helping by the refs for Giants. I see this so much in the NBA, that I'm numb to it by now.
  11. My company didn't and that's the point, but we do now. And it's disconcerting when we're seeing the news and it seems every other week someone else is biting the dust. But this is what we have to work with, and world we live in, is what it is.
  12. Saw a spiceworks article about someone talking about it that lead nowhere. Outside of logging in with domain credentials and being able to manage the computer objects in AD, seems really limited. Did find this:`http://training.apple.com/pdf/wp_integrating_active_directory_mav.pdf We just got this buy in from the top to implement a globally recognized security standard for the whole company since I get the feeling that people really want to take this seriously now. And like I said, that code can be run remotely, but I don't think we should be posting stuff like how on here.
  13. Am I the only one who still likes just putting the address into Google Maps, knowing where I'm at, and just reading my phone like a road map like the good ol days? Used to deliver pizzas back when cell phone ringtones still sounded like 16-bit video games. In the meantime, looks like this may be patched in the newest version of OSX, but there's already an MSF module out for it: http://thehackernews.com/2015/07/apple-mac-os-x-vulnerability.html Exploit Code Fits in a Tweet: Below is the creepy root-level privilege-escalation exploit code that even fit in a tweet, devised yesterday by Redditor Numinit: http://thehackernews.com/2015/07/apple-mac-os-x-vulnerability.html Apple Mac OS X Vulnerability Allow Attacker to Hack your Computer The vulnerability affects both the latest stable release of the Mac operating system, OS X 10.10.4 Yosemite and the current beta version OS X 10.10.5, meaning many people are affected by this vulnerability. However, the current El Capitan beta version OS X 10.11 is not affected by the flaw, which indicates that the company may already be aware of the weakness. We have OSX machines in the Windows Domain environment I work at, and curious how other's deal with that from a centralized management standpoint (WMI filters for additional group policy settings? Anti-malware?) Next version of OSX comes out later this year, so I feel we can wait until then as opposed to pushing out this guys self-made patch (be different if the patch was from apple).
  14. Suit claims DirecTV's "NFL Sunday Ticket" is illegal http://www.cbsnews.com/news/suit-claims-directvs-nfl-sunday-ticket-is-illegal/ SAN FRANCISCO - DirecTV's (DTV) exclusive right to broadcast certain NFL games is an illegal monopoly that raises costs for bars and restaurants, a San Francisco bar says in a lawsuit against the league and the satellite TV provider. The lawsuit filed this week in federal court in California challenges DirecTV's deal with the league for "NFL Sunday Ticket," which gives DirecTV subscribers nationwide live broadcasts of many Sunday games played in other cities. Those games are available to the subscribers only through DirecTV. The lawsuit by the bar Ninth Inning says the deal stifles competition by preventing other TV providers, such as Dish Network (DISH), from airing the games. It also means individual teams don't have to compete to get their games broadcast in markets outside their home cities. "DirecTV's arrangement with the NFL allows the defendants to restrict the output of, and raise the prices for, the live broadcast of NFL Sunday afternoon out of market games," the lawsuit says. The suit seeks class-action status on behalf of other bars and restaurants that subscribe to Sunday Ticket, monetary damages and a court order forbidding the exclusive deal. Calls to the NFL and DirecTV weren't immediately returned. Bars and restaurants must show these games to effectively run their businesses, the lawsuit contends. A bar or restaurant with a fire code occupancy between 51 and 100 people will pay a little more than $2,300 for Sunday Ticket in 2015, according to the suit.
  15. Dabbled with a netgear security appliance once, and noticed that most wireless access points / home wireless routers have a different way of dealing with not being the primary way in and out the house (like turning off DHCP, and letting the firewall appliance do that and the NATing). You aren't planning on having anything public facing, are you?Edit: Not pressed, but is there any plan to merge the IT threads, or will that become too confusing?
  16. If this thread is just going to turn into another IT pissing match / **** measuring contest, then it just needs to go away. No one will come in here except to argue.
  17. : ) it's probably that no-script thing. Seen with other posters, so didn't think much of it Edit: there we go
  18. Newer versions of the android OS have SELinux built into it, but it's becoming too popular, so I'm trying to stay optimistic. My father taught me that even if you're right on a topic, if you go about making that point the wrong way, it will be like you were never right in the first place. Relax : )
  19. I can dig it, that's why I post that chart with the security threats because I want ya'll safe, too. Every OS has its strenghts and weaknesses, but they also all have vulnerabilities. Apple gets that, that's why they pushed out a mandatory update last year for the first time ever and now have automatic updates. You saw that one about the iphone to iphone sms crash this year, right? http://9to5mac.com/community/the-latest-iphone-security-vulnerability-imessages-bug/ I tested that when it came out, very real. I'd like this thread to stay peaceful, because one of the biggest issues I see in IT security from a general population standpoint is awareness.
  20. Ya, like wide open and trying to stay aware security threats and not downloading flashlight apps that need access to my contacts and camera. What are you doing, man? Take a chill pill.
  21. You're making a lot of assumptions of me, Chip. Don't be an ***, we're trying share knowledge here.
  22. Not a huge fan of password managers because they can be exploited as well, but that's just my opinion, and cool to see stuff like this. http://arstechnica.com/security/2015/07/what-amateurs-can-learn-from-security-pros-about-staying-safe-online/ What amateurs can learn from security pros about staying safe online With the non-stop stream of zero-day exploits, website breaches, and criminal hacking enterprises, it's not always easy to know how best to stay safe online. New research from Google highlights three of the most overlooked security practices among security amateurs—installing security updates promptly, using a password manager, and employing two-factor authentication.
  23. Not a huge fan of giving my silverware an IP address, but all I ask if your going to give my everyday devices Internet access is to make them as secure as you can. Doesn't have to be NSA security, just at least do best practices and have this as part of the foundation and development. Saw some posts on facebook, said I'll check it out, then saw this from the people who make the vehicles. http://www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-news/chrysler-recalls-1-4-million-cars-after-remote-hacking-jeep-n397851 Chrysler Recalls 1.4 Million Cars After Remote Hacking of Jeep 2:17 Chrysler is recalling about 1.4 million cars equipped with certain radios, a move related to a security flaw highlighted by hackers earlier this week, the company said in a press release Friday. The recall, which includes Dodges, Jeeps, Rams and Chryslers, comes after Wired magazine published an article Tuesday in which two hackers were able to manipulate remotely a Jeep Cherokee's computer software. Related: Hacking of Connected Vehicles Shifts From Theory to Very Scary Chrysler is urging customers to contact the company for a software update if their vehicle is part of the recall. Related: Jeep Hacker: I'm More Afraid of Texting and Driving "The security of FCA US customers is a top priority, as is retaining their confidence in the Company's products," the company said in a press release. "Accordingly, FCA US has established a dedicated System Quality Engineering team focused on identifying and implementing best practices for software development and integration."
