Linux 4.3 is also out.

I really want to see The Horribly Slow Murderer with the Extremely Inefficient Weapon by Richard Gale - YouTube

Halloween: Resurrection. Once again, I let the BBC tell me what to watch, and once again, it's just complete crap.

I know horror films are renowned for bad acting, but this was more wooden than the school nativity play.

I can't think of a way to describe the plot, not because it was deep and complicated, but because "Michael Myers on reality TV" is the entire plot, so becomes a spoiler.

So, in a nutshell, people who can't act, with a plot that doesn't exist, read a script that doesn't work, and once again, a little part of the viewer dies inside.

Quote:the fact that the [Silk Road] Server was running 'phpmyadmin' would have further corroborated that it was hosting Silk Road, since 'phpmyadmin' is used to administer PHP databases – which are commonly used to run online businesses – and Silk Road's reliance on PHP databases was readily observable from the website itself during the time of its operation

Great to see the US government finally employing competent staff *cough*

Quote:As is so often the case with butlers, there was a good deal of Beach. Julius Caesar, who liked to have men about him who were fat, would have taken to him at once. He was a man who had made two chins grow where only one had been before, and his waistcoat swelled like the sail of a racing yacht.

I post to this thread, and also post to another site programatically twice a day, and this it the first time the first-test-post-to-actually-work has been selected, so consider yourselves blessed.

One can even setup wildcard DNS. That is

Code: Select All

*.mywebsite.com A 12.34.56.78

and let the server handle the subdomains. This gives you infinitely many. SNI may break in some browsers with wildcard DNS. This also lets you completely ignore the character lengths in RFC 2181, though again, some browsers may complain.

Yeah, but international standards day is celebrated on October 14th every year, except the United States where it's held on the 23rd.

You can have 63 characters in a subdomain, and each character can be one of 26 letters, so 26^63 + 26^62 + 26^61... is the limit. One can also use punycode to increase the limit further.

Edit - no, I'm wrong. That's the technical limit. In reality, bind only allows 16777216 entries per zone.

That's if you're self-hosted. If you're on shared hosting, it's more likely you'll have a limit between 0 and 5.

Erotic Nights Of The Living Dead.

I know you've all seen it, but I win the obscure film award, because nobody else is going to admit it.

Shaun of the Dead was nowhere near as good as listening to Simon Pegg talking about Shaun of the Dead.

It's a shame halloween and daylight savings aren't on the same day. There's nothing more evil than visiting friends on daylight savings day, and changing all their clocks to double the daylight savings.
