  • “This article is about a type of dangerous woman”

    2012/06/08 08:30:30 BST

    Femme fatale From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This article is about a type of dangerous woman. For other uses, see Femme fatale (disambiguation). Only a type of dangerous woman? Aren’t they all? And – let’s not be selective – aren’t all men dangerous, too?

  • I have perhaps 150 old VHS cassette tapes that I want rid of. Can they be recycled easily (in the UK)?

    Last call for old media; a handful will be kept, and of those a few converted to digital.

  • What we really NEED is a kickstarter to aggregate all the cracking of these #LinkedIn passwords

    2012/06/06 20:56:38 BST

    Reduce replication of effort. Who wants to dummy up some wireframes and a REST API?

  • I found something rather interesting in the alleged #LinkedIn password hashes – salting? corruption?

    2012/06/06 17:52:56 BST

    There is definitely some data weirdness. My old LinkedIn password plaintext is cud5dfyy – yes I know that publishing a plaintext is probably stupid but it’s short enough to bruteforce in Hashcat, has been changed, was only used for LinkedIn and is really really old, so I might as well save you the trouble. If…

  • “The passwords were encrypted with technology.” #cnet #gottaloveit – from the 2010 #linkedin password change

    2012/06/06 15:28:18 BST

    LinkedIn did a good job with people management in the last password incident, I hope they do the same this time. LinkedIn is disabling passwords of users whose e-mail addresses were included in the customer data that was exposed in an attack on the Gawker blog sites. The professional-networking site is taking this action to…

    If it turns out that LinkedIn passwords have leaked… …here’s what you should do Rumours are circulating on the net that a database of hashes of LinkedIn passwords has been published on a Russian hacker site. I cannot confirm this, but if the article referred to above is correct then there is a risk to…
