actually no it doesn't. As i said I live here in America and I see you live in Canada. I never heard of anything called a 45 or an LP so try again smartass.

Exactly what I expected his response to be. Did not disappoint.

also again that doesn't explain anything. I looked up what both a 45 and LP is and it has nothing to do with programming whatsoever.

They're "records" ... it was a "joke". And about as relevant as your non-existent one.

non-existent? easy for you to say. I heard too many things about this from too many people. So all I'm gonna say is people saying its "non existent" or theres nothing there is complete bs.

Depending where you live, no.
A freelancer is an unprotected one man company. No insurance unless you buy them. You need to be sure to turn a profit, or back out. For most, it is a bad idea.

After 20 years I'm finally catching up with the Sopranos. I usually manage to follow the plot but there's one thing that's got me stumped and I know that someone here will know the answer. 
In S4 E2, Christopher Moltisanti has been appointed as acting captain of Paulie Gualtieri's crew (while Paulie is away) and Silvio Dante disapproves of this appointment. The crew have no-show/no-work jobs on a major building site. Tony has ordered that thefts from the building site must NOT occur as the project is of great value to the family (and to the family's reputation with one of the New York families with whom it is a joint project).
However, Silvio authorises one of the Gualtieri crew, Patsy Parisi, who feels passed over for command, to steal some valuable floor tiles from the site. Silvio does this despite knowing that it will anger Tony. Afterwards, Silvio goes to Tony and claims that it was a misunderstanding and agrees to pay back the value of the tiles, $30K.
So why did Silvio do this? He knew it would anger Tony. He chose to repay their value rather than order Patsy to return them. I presume that he did it to undermine Christopher in the eyes of Paulie's crew but it seems a rather feeble way to do it. It couldn't have been to undermine Christopher in the eyes of Tony since Tony knew it was Silvio who disobeyed his orders. Silvio is normally very loyal to Tony so was Silvio trying to make a (vague) point to Tony?
Were the writers having a poor week or have I missed a subtlety here?
Go on, impress me with your Sopranos knowledge.

Yes, she got her voice surprisingly low in order to play Tony Soprano!

Quote: ... through a dormant software called TeamViewer. The software hadn't been used in about six months but was still on the system.
Er ... TeamViewer needs to be first started on the host.
Then it generates a random number session id that needs to be communicated to the person that wants remote access.
That person then starts their own session using the given id.
Quote: ... praised the operator who spotted the attack on Friday and said current and former employees have been interviewed after early consideration of an insider threat. There are currently no suspicions or indications that's the case, he said.

Or you setup a password.

It's setup like that non my parents laptop, would be hard to explain them to copy over the generated Id. They're not a water-treatment facility though

Well having worked on systems akin to that one in the Water Industry questions were asked by several of us as to why the machines are connected to the internet and not on a seperate Lan. I think this was part of the 'Everything online' craze of the late 90's ealry 00's (that felt weird to type), think about it why does the Sodium Hydroxide level of the drinking water need to be altered & why remotley I accept that way of doing remotely is needed but let that be a modem on the machine which you have to connect to directly rather than being 'online'. A case of Done because you Can, rather than Done because you Need.

I just got done walking a client back from the edge of a cliff. They were thinking of hoarding the medical data the device I'm building collects and sending it over the Internet.
I just told him it would be too expensive because I designed all the connectivity explicitly so it couldn't route and therefore couldn't wind up online. I'd have to rewrite it all, which is true. But that's not the reason I won't do it. I refuse to be part of an operation that will compromise so many people.

When I open up TeamViewer there are two options under "Unattended access" in plain sight.
One is "Start TeamViewer with Windows" and the other is "Grant easy access".
I have both unchecked and I'm not sure what the second does, but I have no doubt that a water treatment plant in Florida can tell me

A "rat" rat, or an actual Remote Access Trojan?
If you want it described accurately, don't get your software security news from the mainstream media; they're always going to get it wrong. This week's episode of the Security Now podcast (#805) covers that story, and (DISCLAIMER) while I haven't yet listened to it, Steve Gibson tends to get closer to a story's actual sources, and usually does a very good job explaining how things have unfolded in reality. The guy still makes a living writing in assembler, so he's not afraid to getting into technical details when it suits the story.

I've never been a TeamViewer "host"; always the fixer.
The sequence was that the client would start a session on their end, communicate the session id (via phone), I would start my session using the given id, etc.
Letting this stuff "boot up at Windows startup" and "publicizing" that fact so that anybody can get access (as some claim) is news to me ... and sounds really dumb.
