I handled a known virus a while back. It was a zip file claiming to contain pictures of a person named "George" claiming to want to date. The zip file contains a JS file Candi.js which is a Trojan horse: when executed, it downloads ransomware onto the machine.
Norton initially did not detect this, but several days after submitting the malware sample to Symantec, a full system scan identified and quarantined the rogue JS file from within the ZIP file.
A bit of an oddity with my DeWalt cordless drill: As with many drills, the unit is designed to stop immediately when you let go of the trigger. This feature, however, isn't implemented with a friction brake, but an electromagnetic brake: using a battery with a fuel gauge, if the battery is partially depleted (one or two lights lit out of three) and I hold onto the fuel gauge button as I let go of the trigger, it briefly jumps to all three lights lit.
In other words, the drill's trigger release brake is regenerative.
Why? Does this meaningfully increase runtime? I seriously doubt it because in a typical construction scenario, nearly all energy is used to actually do drilling/driving work.
Also, this spike in the battery's fuel gauge represents a sudden burst of energy fed back into the battery. Even though high-discharge IMR cells of the sort used in power tools are designed to handle very high currents, I'm not sure if this is healthy for the battery.
Ultimately, this is a professional-grade power tool and I would be surprised if this would noticeably reduce battery service life.
Your thoughts?
It's a brushless motor, by the way.
Why on Earth would DeWalt design the drill to use regenerative braking?
@ThatBrazilianGuy I'm reading the transcript and was confused the first time, I think maybe you were misunderstood.
@NicholasKyriakides Some amazingly user-friendly site I have to use block paste on the login fields, using JavaScript.
the first time I read it, especially because of the bold formatting I thought maybe there were some errors in it and you were meaning that you have a website and you have to use block paste in it on the password field.
Then the guy tells you not to do that that it's retarded. Makes complete sense and if he actually understood what you were trying to say, he…
oh you say he actually posted something offensive dang well screw him, we gotta let him stay to support multiculturism too
you don't need a label printer, just use e-tape (yup electrical tape) and make it like 1 inch and a quarter so you got half an inch 2x (the tape sticky part to sticky part) and that quarter inch hopefully gets you around the cable. I hope you understand what I mean. Then you have these little flags you can label with a permie marker. That's what I did in my work place. best part is you can get multiple colours of tape for your different areas!! assuming these little children arent like OOO PRETTY COLOURS RAWRRRRRRRRR -rip- -pull- hey that teacher has sKIssors! SNIP SNIP SNI- oops I cut the …
@bwDraco Oh yes @BenN invest in high quality duct tape. NOT DUCK TAPE. and tape down those wires so they are inaccesible!
eww electrical tape, nasty stuff when it gets old and/or hot. The only thing electrical tape is not good for, is electrical stuff. The only thing duct tape isn't any good for, is ducts .
I guess those kids have never heard of "if it ain't broke don't fix it"
FINALLY I HAVE PROCESSED EVERYTHING UP TO @HENNES ' POST ABOUT EBOLA HEh time for some fun!
Q: please help me before my pc gets Ebola
android virus cells transfer Oh thank goodness this chat grabbed the question and posted it by VALUE and NOT BY REFERENCE SO I GOT TO SEE THE ORIGINAL QUESTION HAH
Does each individual core become faster if I disable hyper-threading?
It does not. The overal system performance would be cut in half through. Disabling Hyperthreading would not make the 4 physical cores run faster, compared to how they run, when Hyperthreading is enabled.
Does this me...
wow that is strangely wrong sounding. even in the best of scenarios hyperthreading can gain like 8-12% max ever, in the worst scenarios there are some things that are faster with hyperthreading turned off completly. (things that are older or dont work with fake cores well anyways)
if turning it off Halves your performance, then not only was the program designed horribly but the other cores are really busy besides ?
with 4 real cores and one or 2 programs running doing normal stuff, it's not like there will be a lot of advantage anyway.
I do not know, but someone here surely will. it is logical that every nic has to have a different Mac, uhh because . . . of something i couldnt say correctally.
I feel like USB Type-C devices need this warning in the manual:

@hyperj123 if you Hover your mouse over a responce to you in the chat, it can reveal what the responce refers to. doesnt always , but usually shows what you need.
well im using hyper-v and it is going to have 2 server 2012 active directory environments only we have one network for our call center and the other for our security dept
Each Ethernet port in the NIC is its own network interface and can be assigned its own IP address. If you want to have multiple ports use the same IP address, you'll need to set up link aggregation (teaming).
The hypervisor's virtual switch is basically a software interface that communicates through the host NIC and exposes a switch to which the VM's own virtual NICs connect.
Virtualization can be a bit tricky to understand, but once you understand how it works, it makes perfect sense.
It's the technology at the heart of cloud computing, so it's very important to know.
A virtual switch can be configured to have no external network access at all, only allowing traffic to move between VMs connected to the switch, just like a wireless router or Ethernet switch that isn't connected to the Internet.
The idea behind virtualization is that you decouple services like compute, storage, and networking from the underlying hardware like the CPU, disk, and NIC. By providing these services in software, you can use whatever hardware you want and the VMs will see the exact same software-defined resources. It also lets you easily and arbitrarily scale these virtual resources. The hypervisor takes care of the translation between the physical and virtual resources.
This makes virtualization an incredibly powerful tool that can be used to dramatically reduce hardware costs, enhance flexibility, and increase reliability.
- Applications that once required separate servers can now be consolidated into one big machine for lower cost and higher efficiency. - Each VM can be configured to use any portion of the host machine's resources as needed, perhaps spanning multiple physical servers at once - The decoupling of services from their hardware allows VMs to be backed by redundant hardware, even across hosts, in a fashion entirely transparent to applications…

> As some of you may know, before I came to COMPANY I spent a year filming a documentary film and over the past few months I’ve had an editor working in the background getting it closer to completion.
I’m looking for creative volunteers at COMPANY who may be interested in helping me get this to the finish line.
I’d love for some feedback on the latest cut of the film, and spark some discussion and debate around the story, motion graphics, animations, additional footage, score and publicity of the film.
To top it all, the bureacratic situation is: I should have been in a stable, hard-to-fire situation since 2015, but found out I am not, the papers disappeared in limbo.
And I found out I could have been receiving (albeit small) raises every 18 months since I was hired, attached to the stability process. Said raises never ocurred.
I am going now to the HR sector to try to fix the stability process.
I was so ready to reach each and every one I've helped in these years and get declarations that "TBG is a really nice guy and has promplty helped me in these situations" and a list of signatures
My wife convinced me to write a polite email to soothe the angry guy.
@Burgi Seems like a weird comparison, Office 365 is an office software suite and SBS is a piece of shit that consumes massive amounts of memory to slow down your business processes
well either the migration was botched or its just bad because its just crap
its costing a fortune and i reckon a local exchange box would be better
oh and we have cloud AD too
although tbh based on the other crap at this place it could be that a million and one things are broken and conflicting resulting in a poor experience across the board
@Burgi It's like 10€/user/month for O365 with hosted Exchange. That's hardly a fortune. Maintaining your own Exchange is such a huge pain in the ass, it does not compare
aww no @JourneymanGeek that happened to my family! the guy sounded like our friend's voice so well so we were fooled until he asked us for money omg it was so horrible! :( we thought our friend called to see whats going on and stuff D: but no he didnt
@here oh my goodness
"Of those IoT devices participating in the DDoS attack, they were primarily comprised of CCTV cameras and DVRs."
@Rahul2001 this article I found is retarted. https://mic.com/articles/103690/this-terrifying-website-lets-you-spy-on-people-through-73-000-private-security-cameras
Oh great, thanks for telling me which website to go on to spy on people through 73000 security cameras lmao
When I plug in my USB flash drive, it shows up on my computer as write-protected or read-only. I am unable to transfer data to it, nor can I modify or delete any files already stored on it. I also cannot repartition or reformat the drive using Windows Disk Management, DiskPart, GParted, or other ...
So, this phone has two "boot init states", each with its own ---recovery--- menu, the recovery tool is in the 2nd init state. So I had to go to the *first* boot and "delete all data and cache", and now CM9 took les than 30s to boot.
Sometimes older questions are closed as duplicates of newer ones, if the community consensus is that a newer questions should function as the center of info on that particular problem
I guess I need an online calling thing. that will be much easier to record. just record the sound on my PC. I wonder if I can record from "2" microphones at once
I've addressed this in my answer to the Meta question regarding this.
Fixer's identified a similar issue:
I've started through the questions in the linked list, and it's a head scratcher. The ones I've looked at so far that aren't already closed are ones I previously voted to close as a duplicate and all duple votes have been cleared. It is still within the voting window, which means a lot of people looked at these questions and actively voted to keep them open. The problem is described slightly different in some, but the answer is the same. Others are identical questions. I don't understand why people would vote to not make these dupes. — fixer1234yesterday
Most (all?) of these are older. Maybe people are under the mistaken impression that the older question is always the reference question, regardless of answer quality. — fixer1234yesterday
I also felt that I'd typically much rather have a existing question as a master. Most community FAQs I did were a broad topic that benefited from a single searchable question
I've already looked through the questions for a candidate canonical question but they were all either hardware-specific, specified steps the user had already taken, or had existing answers that were specific to the user or device.
@JourneymanGeek The answer (self-answered) to the other question essentially says "The drive is going bad" which is certainly less usefull and comprehensive cf the canonical answer.
It seems the other poster is only concerned about rep loss, which won't happen if his question is closed as a dupe.
Well, I have 11 points on my question and I don't want to lose them; maybe we can consolidate to mine? And I was 3 years earlier - that should count, you know. — bgmCoderSep 17 at 15:07
@bgmCoder You won't lose your imaginary points if your question is closed as a dupe. — DavidPostill10 mins ago
When I open this animated GIF image in Photoshop and save it as GIF it stops working (rotating). I see about 6 layers. Do I have to do something with those layers? I'm really not getting this. I Googled but nobody seems to have this problem.
That really depends on context. For some hobby project: C, For teaching: Pascal (and not turbo pascal. Just the clean designed for teaching code). For something webbased. Possibly PHP orr Ruby or ... Etc etc.
Without more info this is like 'what is your favourite car'. Which can be both a Ferrari, a small city shopping car or a truck.
I had a toyota something (low, with the fold up headlight) when I was young. Drove reasonably fast. Then a Golf (golf II?). Was older. Stick to the speed limits.
These days I still stick to them and most of the times I drive I act as if it is a driving exam.
I can confidently recommend the Otterbox Defender for the iPhone 7 Plus as a great case - it's much grippier, and the fit of the layers is much tighter than previous Otterboxen I've used, and the protection is amazing
not sure if other recent Otterbox Defenders are this good
it's worlds better than the iPhone 6S Plus's Otterbox Defender in terms of grippiness
