@D3C4FF In its current state, it's extremely difficult to answer your question.
@D3C4FF It all depends on your study of the area you're exploring. Are you exploring next to Chernobyl or Love Canal? Then normal clothing won't cut it

The pandering for upvotes in this question is at a new level.
"I love the wording of your question because it has all of the hallmarks of a SecPro with more of a traditional background in law enforcement, policy auditing and it seems like the earnest curiosity of someone on the quest to learn more and that is becoming rarer in this profession."
@D3C4FF Oookay! Now I get it, I've just translated Asbestos a now I know what you're talking about.
@D3C4FF I'm not sure if I have a good source, but I think I've heard that rinsing under running water before putting it in the washing machine should be enough.
Find where he lives and go to his house with a blond from Nebraska and knock on the door. When he opens the door, let her kick him in the nads and quickly take back your bat'leth, and your WoW account. I've been places where this happened in the USA with intent to cause damages and we turned the evidence over to the FBI. Not sure what/if they every did anything, since the perp was in Russia. — Bratch2 days ago
I suggest that tag-wikis and guidelines for writing great tag wikis should be included in the FAQ for all the users to see.I am aware that the link to this blog post is provided on the edit-tag-wiki page.

IMO the FAQ is for the most important things. Tag wikis are relatively obscure -- asking and answering is what is important (and common) and that's what the faq deals with. The faq is for new users; and new users probably shouldn't be dealing with the tag wikis.
If you wish, you may write up a f...

@D3C4FF osh.dol.govt.nz/publications/factsheets/… has some pretty good information and some links for New Zealand peeps that might be quite similar to regulations in Oz (not sure about that tho, just think it might be the case). I would otherwise highly recommend not to unless you really have to. Asbestos can also penetrate the body through skin an cause all kinds of problems with that (they slowly move through the body regardless of obstacles)
And don't forget you can carry that dust on your clothing, protective or not, so it's probably best to use discardable clothing or have means to wash them thoroughly close to the contaminated site with water and a high-pressure hose and discard non-washable items, not much different than if you'd be going through a radioactive zone.
I would suggest use of double-threaded laminated fabrics, you can get such clothes in some specialized shops, not sure where in your case but if I didn't have problems finding them here, you shouldn't either ;)
As for foot/handwear - gumboots and gum covered gloves (you should be able to get them at any gas station) are pretty good for that, although a bit awkward to use with climbing equipment.. but possible, I've done it myself on several occasions.
Oh... and prepare to look extremely funny in all these clothes ... have a camera ready and post here once you can :)
@D3C4FF definitely not... and it can take years to develop problems, so you won't be able to tell what damage it caused... not even x-ray can detect that until it's already affecting tissue
the biggest problem is older sites tho, where this asbestos started falling apart ... newer industrial sites where they still used it to protect against fire should be much safer tho
i.e. it's the asbestos dust that's the biggest problem
@LucasKauffman @TildalWave Awesome. Thanks guys. I know dealing with removal and dust is a big deal, i personally never try to involve it, however the location we're heading to tonight has some motion sensors that can only be avoided by crawling underneath them. They're quite dusty and there's a lot of asbestos piping around. It stands to reason that a fair portion of that will be asbestos dust. I'll have to bust out my dust suits as well then... And dispose of pretty much my entire wardrobe...
Part three seems to be in the making, but not much else is known about it (part two was a straight to DVD utter kak). Anyway, there were some pretty neat motion sensors used in the original and characters trying to bypass them, that's why I ask ;)
@d3c4ff - as I student I was a big fan of buildering round both deserted towns and built up urban areas. Very much in the 'leave no footprints' school - I probably have some photos from back then, but this was before digital cameras...
@D3C4FF @Scott @lynks @Terry @AviD (you're the guys I've noticed talking about hardware, SuperUser, system stuff). Soon I'll be getting a new work laptop, what do you recommend I do to move my current system, as is, to the new laptop?
I am trying to use the IFileSystemImage2 interface to create an ISO with multiple boot records using Imapi2.
To do this, I should be able to use put_BootImageOptionsArray passing in SAFEARRAY* of VT_DISPATCH type, i.e. COM pointers of type IBootOptions for each boot options configuration. As a ...
@Adnan I'm not really a good Windows person. I know Windows has a built in backup/restore feature. Would it be possible to backup the old machine and restore onto the new one?
@Adnan I've done that with OSX's Time Machine to migrate from hardware to hardware many times.
@ScottPack I could be telling you a lie, but I thought you could alter the HAL should you need to and various other bits. Or that might be registry stuff. Been a while since I've done it by hand.
@ScottPack My profile is already in AD. I tried it before (same profile, new machine) but I've lost all my scheduled tasks, Machine registry, installed DLLs.. (well, that's what I expected, of course)
by that I mean most LKMs reference the kernel makefiles. Type make in their folder and you'll get a load of ` CC [M]` lines which are CC as module commands. Eventually, you'll get a .ko. You can install it to ` /lib/modules/uname -r ` with make install then modprobe.
@TerryChia Nope, it should be exactly the same process. It should be reasonably straightforward, but there can be nasties, such as the uapi header change in 3.7 that broke a few kernel module compiles (they moved the kernel version header).
@RoryAlsop Awesome stuff! I'm subscribed to the "Take only photos, leave only footprints" exploring 'philosophy', :D I've probably got about 1TB of exploring photos, including caves etc
@Adnan Swap the hard-drive with whatever new laptop you get, or clone it across, there's plenty of software to do it...?
win: an engineer was plumbing a new ethernet into out office block. I just asked in passing if he had any cat5 offcuts...he just brought up 3 boxes, with 50m reels on each saying they were 'too short' for them to use :P those will going going in the boot of my car come home time =)
@Polynomial but I really hope you've been going around saying that xP, it reminds me of my cousin, who at age 24 thought the expression was "it's a doggy-dog world"
@AviD well yes it could use a context but could be an intriguing question then, if it did have it... but yup, it's LinkedIn... haven't seen many good answers there either, mostly self-promotion and similar
@AviD yeah I'm with @TildalWave on this, I think you dreamt it. Also whats wrong with openssl dgst -sha1 -sign priv.pem -out sig myzip.zip && tar -czf signed.tgz *
@AviD So you're after some sort of AV for ZIP archives, or what? Because they have authenticity verification capability, but was dropped support for in most (even PKZIP) later, not sure why tho, maybe it was just bad implementation and pointless
> PKZIP 7.0 changed SES to use non-OAEP key wrapping. Support of creating AV authenticity verification archives was dropped. PKZIP could now create archives of the following types: ZIP, BZIP2, GZIP, TAR, UUEncoded, XXEncoded.
its... kind of between integrity and authenticity. The system would generate the zip file, users should be able to check that it wasnt changed since then.
> PKWARE SecureZIP also supports RC2, RC4, DES, Triple DES encryption methods, Digital Certificate-based encryption and authentication (X.509), and archive header encryption.
@TildalWave well... yeah. I didnt want to constrain to that, but basically yeah.
@AviD anyway, AV is an extension of the ZIP format... since... last millenium sometime, so you'd be then only looking for software that does it in an idiot-proof way for your users... seems PKWare dropped it in PKZIP to differentiate between their consumer and professionals targeted products
@TildalWave well I'm not really looking for a specific product that could do it, I'm looking for a generic-ish solution, preferably standard, that anybody would be able to consume.
but yeah, that looks like the solution - OpenPGP.... dont need the product for that.
@AviD I dig that, but can't find any... not sure how well it's supported with standard readers tho, it's probably where the problem is - in essence, you can extend it and the container itself is quite capable of supporting that, but the extension will need a proprietary reader then, which is a major bummer
@Adnan yeah, I guess thats the way I'll have to go.
so I'm thinking use Zip's builtin AES encryption, and layer GPG signature on top of that. so the signature would need to be saved in a seperate file, alongside the zip file...
@Iszi weird that they don't have android support. Maybe it's a skunkworks arm of the ingress people and they'll pull a shock merger of the two games :)
@AviD Actually, some guy at work made a little application, we keep on the desktop. When we want to safely encrypt something we drag the file to the application's icon, then it ZIP AES-256 and sign with GPG and it ZIP that as well.
@AviD Extraction is done pretty much the opposite way, we drag the ZIP file to the application's icon. It extracts the ZIP, checks the sig, if everything checks out it asks for the password and extracts the ZIP inside.
cant go for the application though, dont have control over the users. But this way, if a user wants to verify the signature, there is a standard app for that, and if not, just open 2 zip files and ignore it...
hmm, as long as I'm going with GPG/OpenPGP for signing, would it make sense to use that for encryption too, instead of ZIPAES?
I'm not too familiar with GPG... does it support symmetric encryption?
@AviD you could have something like this; the ZIP export contains a 'metadata' file with a unique ID for that export. upon creating the zip, you add the ID and MD5 of the export to a database. At any point in the future, someone can upload a zip to the verification page, which first MD5s it, then unzips it serverside, looks up the ID in the database and verifies it.
I'd go down that route, see if javascript can access a local file (probably need a signed java app, or activeX, or something) if it can unzip it and grab the ID that would be great, then it can post MD5 and ID to server for lookup without having to push the file...
Java has nice easy compression input streams too
OR if there are zip headers you could shove the ID into, even better
@AviD Mostly. I'm rather pissed at whomever in M$ made the asinine assumption that everybody wants all their accounts tied to one e-mail address. Can't use Xbox Live features with my primary gamertag yet because of it - gonna be at least two months.
Oh, and that's another gripe. For some reason, we have to wait through cooldown periods between gamertag transfers, but I could migrate a whole account back and forth as often as I want.
@Iszi The missus has had a lot of "fun" with her MS setup as she uses the same e-mail address for her Microsoft account and her office365 account. This confused the heck out of some of the login and sync bits of their site for quite a while..
@AntonyVennard oh me neither, what I meant was all my rep on SU was collected here, then migrated there... and wondering if it's much the same case with others here too
@AntonyVennard Well you're growing it in still legal quantities I see :) Anything worth watching on UK telly tonight I'm not going out it's British weather at its finest here too :(
ah WILTY and HIGNFY in half an hour... yup that'll do :)
