I wonder if the system account has been denied interactive permissions on that system? and then there is the elevation token, which is totally separate from accounts if I recall.
Not as far as i can tell... I can run -some- privledged commands as NT\sys, including creating additional local admin accounts, but can't do 'simple' things like change group-policy settings or run 'untrusted' applications
And only some GroupPolicy objects are locked. But I don't understand why they're locked...
I thought something like "Certificate rules on win executables" but that's disabled, no sofware restriction policies defied either...
Trying to figure out why this page has the tag "rory." Did Rory Alsop create this room, or does he simply frequent it, or does the tag have another meaning altogether? Clicking on the rory tag gives a 404.
Ditto on nono-yolo... although I like the sound of it :)
Never mind, every single tag on this room give 404...
That is, if this was a chat room designed for discussing the proper way to retire information or dispose of equipment then it would be tagged with destruction
It assumes whatever text you put in there is the name of a tag, so when they render the chat room html it includes a link to the tag. It just happens that they don't validate.
Too true... My favorite thing I've seen on stack exchange was when someone answered a question on Stack Overflow and then commented on it two years later. They had forgotten how to do whatever it was they had answered, and when they Googled it their own answer on SO came up. Apparently "It's depressing how much more the past me knows than the present me."
There have been a couple of times I've hit a problem, searched for the answer, read it, thought, "This guy is freaking genius. Upboat that!" then discover it was me.
Security.SE probably thinks you're rather narcissistic at this point ("god****, he's trying to upvote himself again").
That's doubtless going somewhere in a Google repository...
No doubt slightly skewing their complete psychological profile of you
So that when they tailor their mind-altering drugs to each individual in an effort to enslave the populous, only you and the people who use Tor will be safe!
And thus a more realistic version of Terminator is born.
I've got an Athlon socket 7 running my FreeNAS box now and it's idling like none other. It's SATA port starved and only has PCI, so throwing an expansion card in seems like a waste.
Disk is cheap, and for most uses even RAID5 is fast enough. Processor is negligible, unless you're doing something weird. It's RAM that always runs out.
I've been pretty happy with CM11 so far. There are some audio related bugs, which is annoying, and bluetooth is wonky.
If I'm using a bluetooth headset and pause audio for a length of time (at least 1 minute but maybe longer) then the audio is exceptionally choppy and I have to reassociate the headset for it to clear.
Sometimes the headset media keys don't work, or (even worse) if my podcast player is in the foreground they will occasionally get sent to the stock music player.
@RоryMcCune Yet they're printed on receipts when you buy stuff from the supermarket.
@RоryMcCune This is essentially means that if someone wants to steal your GoDaddy account, they only need to follow you around for a day and get hold of a receipt after you discard it.
Or, pay the cashier $10 to give you that information
I have a web service. Right now I have passwords stored in plain text in a mysql table on my server. I know this isn't the best practice, and that is why I am working on it.
Why should passwords be encrypted if they are being stored in a secure database? I realize that if someone hacks in to my ...
@PatoSáinz None of them then. I'm pretty sure looking up the appropriate library for whatever language you are using, changing your code, and committing it takes more than 3 seconds no matter how fast you type.
Scrypt is considered better because it is more resistant than bcrypt against attackers utilizing FPGA/AISC. However, bcrypt implementations are more readily available so it's usually the one I use.
@PatoSáinz Yup, what @Terry said. I'd go with BCrypt mainly for portability. However, If you're running your application in a server you own and maintain, then use whatever makes you comfortable.
@blade19899 I have put the right answer to that question; it will be interesting to see if scientific righteousness can trump the crowd of upvoting monkeys.
@Simon I realized it was unfair of me to lay the heavy burden of reviewing on you all. You needed help. So I started helping again. Plus I had to help strategically review to keep Ali down, so @Adnan could solidify his hold on the second spot.
@LucasKauffman I just did a test drive of your new chat up line, got a laugh out of my missus, so as long as you stick to geeky women you should be sorted..
@PatoSáinz Why? Just hash the passwords with an expensive hashing algorithm. There's no justification for a web app to be able to recover the plaintext password.
Is there a canonical question somewhere on SE regarding the whole RGB vs CMYK vs RBY thing? I feel this is something I should understand, but probably don't.
We use CMYK for paper printing because paper offers more variations than LCD screens (e.g. brilliance variations).
RYB is for paper where the colours are filters, and not lights.
If you put no colour on a piece of paper you get white; if you put all of them you get black. On a screen, no colour is black and all-colours is white.
In fact, RYB should be MYC (Magenta, Yellow, Cyan).
@ThomasPornin What i don't get is why we learn RBY in primary school, while the "real world" mostly uses CMYK or RGB - and then, I still don't really get why we use RGB for additive and CMYK for subtractive.
Besides that, I haven't even yet really tried to wrap my head around how HSV/HSL works.
The subtractive colours are the complement of the additive ones, which makes sense, because they are substractive.
I.e. somehow the "subtractive magenta" is a colour which filters out everything but magenta, i.e. a colour which lets flow only what constitutes magenta: red and blue.
If you mix magenta and yellow paints, then the magenta blocks everything but red and blue, yellow blocks everything but red and green, so in the end you get red.
The K in CMYK is because the human eye see a few more things on paper, e.g. whether the colour is brilliant or not brilliant; the extra K (black) is redundant in an RGB point of view, but allows to fine tune the rendering, and it is handy to have sharp letters.
@ThomasPornin See, they're you're talking about paints - where our children are learning that colors are made up of Red, Blue, and Yellow. If it's really CMY (and that's what's used in the real world) why aren't we teaching them that instead?
Historically, RYB was first used because early painters had access to only a few available colours. CMY and CMYK were theorized later on, when people began to understand what was going on (i.e. after Descartes and Newton, mostly).
Also, when you give colour tubes to a kid, you can only get one final colour, which is "messy dark green".
erm well there's different color wheels and RYB is used to teach kids color theory because it actually works for mixing pigments (i.e. reflected light of materials), where RGB works for mixing "light" sources. And CMYK works better for printing. But all printing color wheels are approximations anyway and greatly depends on the quality of your pigments and the material it's printed on. There's always some chemical and photo induced "bleaching" anyway.
RYB also works for "perceived colors" e.g. for contrasting colors to mix shades of shadows... Van Gogh used that, for example to paint shadows of yellowish fields dark purple.

@Adnan It is amusing: in North languages, Thursday is "the day of Thor" (e.g. Donnerstag in German), while in Latin-influenced countries it is "the day of Jupiter" (Jeudi in French, Giovedi in Italian...) (and the imperial Roman calendar did not have week days).
@CodesInChaos LOL no didn't even notice it and it took me a while now to realize what you meant. I followed up on posts of that user that I linked to before. Why did you notice it? :P
