They seem to have a DNS server blacklist, they block Google and OpenDNS, I had to use Gibson DNS benchmark to find fast and unblocked ones.
Then, today, after I've been doing it for months, I get an email
From a coworker, saying "We finally identified the cause of the slowness, it's the DNS server, let's use [this other internal DNS server I never heard about]"
If this other DNS server is better, why do we get assigned the bad ones by DHCP?
@BenRichards I find it funny how in some countries you can live with a person for decades, have grandchildren with them, a shared bank account, a co-owned house, and still won't be considered married unless church/papers.
Ok, I totally get that for the State to legally acknowledge the marriage you have to sign the papers, but having social circles of friends, or even aquaintances and strangers looking at you and the woman you wake up with everyday and saying "no, no, she's not your wife
@ThatBrazilianGuy: Also, might be lost in translation
Does brazil do common law, or civil law?
(That's to say UK style, where unless explicitly contradicted by legislature, the decisions/interpretations of laws in previous cases are taken into account, or french style, where its entirely based off the laws?)

Supposedly it is against the rules to "squat" a domain, so if these things are not in-use or intending to be in use , it is against the rules to Hold them for randsom, or buy and sell them as stocks. That is why you can see they have some useless stuff tossed on them usually , with at least a front page thing.
and if something else changed the group policy it is likely to have been done in the registry. and because the GPO is such a bloody mess (massive lists of things), I would want to Search the web for " GPO Task Manager Registry ". then look in the registry quick to see if it is there.
@Nick Well no your not the admin, microsoft is , since windows 7.
They no longer trust regular people to perform such task or have that sort of power.
The relevent GPO is Administrative Templates\System\Ctrl+Alt+Del Options\Remove Task Manager in User Configuration. This might help you in a Google search.
You'll need a Professional edition of Windows to access gpedit.msc.
The idea would be to look and see if that changed. it would take more research to know all.
Like the thing also can be fired up at the log-in stuff and all, a Baddie program may cover nuking it in other places, or using compeltly different methods.

Okay, I don't play League of Legends. However, I keep hearing about ongoing toxicity issues with the LoL player community, with large numbers of users engaging in harassment, bullying, and other hostile conduct towards other players, despite Riot Games implementing numerous mitigation techniques up to and including near-immediate suspensions or bans.
What specific reasons are there for this toxicity, and what lessons in community building can we learn fro…

@DragonLord it is all philosophical with a ending like what is the moral of this story. I doubt it is going to fly like that. As is, it would be one of them blog entries or tech news blog thing, with 245 comments below it. And you already know what that means at some SE sites.
but I suspect one of my former colleagues wrote a shitty piece of code that makes our software try and connect to our server every second (or more), simply causing a lot of connections or something
@IvoFlipse Ok, that should be acceptable even if they're all external, depending on how long each connection persists for on the router, and how aggressive it is about clearing old ones when full.
@IvoFlipse Honestly, if you ask for a recommendation I'd probably recommend a similar router to the one you already have. And I would expect it to handle this load easily. That's why I'm wondering if it's somehting else.
I'm honestly unsure how most home machines get infected these days. There's no targeted attacks; don't run any dodgy programs and you'll be fine most of the time.
@Bob No, I'm more of installing dodgy software based on word of mouth kind of fellow. For example, a friend of mine recently advised me to use malwarebytes and I'm downloading as we speak.
@DragonLord -1 point for not being directally involved. better to use the thing as an example, and not acknowledge you were not playing it yourself. Problem is it is still spilled milk. Is the idea behind asking to: A) how can i keep a community i am fully in charge of from dissolving this way (without being part of the assholes). B) how do we keep thing from getting like that as users?
> To prevent this from happening in other communities, what specific reasons are there for this toxicity? I'd like to see answers that focus on the moderator side of community building.
You couldnt get me to install itunes on my computer, I seen what they do with QuickSlime , that was bad enough (required for my video program because of codecs)
Do you know about autoruns? After a day of comprehending it all , it will easily disable anything, AND (the good part) you can save configurations and compare. it is like a MegaMsConfig.

I hate that they try to call it a "cloud", anyway. it's not even remotely related to how cloud stuff actually works
it's probably a single NAND chip no larger than the one inside a smartphone, or maybe an SD card
and if you get robbed, they'll just take your phone and your watch... duhhh
half of the point of "cloud" backups (which really means, backups stored on a remote server(s) somewhere) is that if bad things happen to you locally, like getting in a car accident or being robbed or being submerged in water, your data is somewhere far, far away where things are fine and you don't lose it
heck, most cloud backups would even be fine in the event of a single, localized nuclear explosion, probabilistically (they're unlikely to be in the blast radius if we assume it's a fairly small one)
and if you have a situation like Amazon S3, where your data is copied transparently to multiple datacenters on multiple continents, it'd literally take a worldwide nuclear war for you to lose your data... or to be horrendously unlucky, since S3 loses something like 1.0 x 10^-15 percent of their data every year
so yeah, that ReVault is a bad concept -- you may as well just have two separate NAND chips in your phone and mirror your data across them in software RAID1 or something
