Using scripted authentication

Submitted by olecom

I've found a way to use proposed in "ssh brute force" post method to auth users on some kind of services, server may provide, but where software may not support authentication at all.

Opinions on this auth for tinyproxy are welcome.

If you still have whose "autorun.inf puppies", which are being run by office rats, after all install && update && upgrade of the so called "anti-virus" software. Please, welcome!

Достали автораны и жирные ненасытные обновлениями антивирусы, которые до сих пор не могут с ними ничего поделать? Добро пожаловать!

Alternative power for LED head light

Submitted by olecom

I've bought a LED head light some time ago. Battery turned to be absolutely useless. It runs only 15 minutes instead of 12 hours. It has two holes inside, but there’s no liquid. Maybe all went off, and thus there’s no power… Even if had something, I don’t know what to put there, acid, alkali, water?..

new language: programming that can speak to modern hardware easily

Now i'm doing some kind of translator (to C), that can turn second to its functional equivalent -- first:

void handle_mcucsr(void) __attribute__((section(".init3"))) __attribute__((naked));
void handle_mcucsr(void)
{
    mcucsr = MCUCSR;
    MCUCSR = 0;
}

handle_mcucsr: sect[ion] .init3, naked!
	mcucsr = MCUCSR
	MCUCSR = 0

I'm back too. Back to my native places, native laguage etc. I've got some internet access and will share something (hopefully).

Want to start publication also in russian laguage. Let's see what will happen.

So, итак, я снова на кернелтрап.орг. Вернулся на родину, добыл немного интернета, и думаю начать публиковать информацию также на русском языке. Посмотрим к чему это приведёт.

"Stable" kernel 2.6.25.7 released debate on LWN.net

IT bubble days are over. Linux kernel (almost the only useful FOSS thing left) tries to not loose it's volume.

Developers do what they do on limited resources, using dumb tools or no tools at all, saving buzz-hype using PR fuzz. It is a social and economical problem, not a technical and/or ethical one.

OK, finally my stone to "The art of thinking in `make` and C". Hope, it's constructive.

stupid functional extention keys; back to flexible UI and keyboard in the first place

Submitted by olecom
on May 26, 2008 - 2:04pm

ACPI-fied or driverized extention keys on keyboard on laptop are just stupid. There are 100 keys, they need even more and ugly.

'Fn' on laptops. Why all extentions: backlight, sound volume, etc. cannot be done for one hand: Fn+1 Fn+2.. Fn+q Fn+w.. Fn+a Fn+s?

I doubt this frozen 'Fn' thing is even needed at all. Again, more flexible UI and keyboard in the first place are needed! EOF

Ordinary headphones (e.g. with long cable) and simple user control of playback.

Ordinary headphones with volume potentiometer. What if i need just next/prev song and stop/start playback commands? By sensing resistance of the load/output current on amplifier all can be acheived (by two buttons):

* either left or right resistance is high (no volume, small current) -- prev./next
* both are high -- stop if playing, play if stoped (or on/off chain + application decides)

Abstract:
In this article I provide a practical analysis of programming practices and education. The phrase ``Good programmers are lazy'' is very often offered to students as a guide to good programming. This statement is very wrong and reflects some of the problems with attitudes in computer science today.

I claim to be a `sed` lover, not guru (generally bad term), not geek. Since seders is closed private group (stupid, huh), i'd like to post something interesting and useful here.

Tutorials, i know, and could find in google all have silly examples and suck. Let's do a HOWTO for real-life stuff.
