Are public Wi-Fi hotspots safe, what is the data someone could potantialy steal if they intercept your wifi signal.
>>56362243
All non-encrypted data.
Public as in not password protected?
All data going in and out
>>56362267
Not even that. Https can be unencrypted

The superior old but gold uTorrent 2.2.1 still works perfectly with no flaws or breaches.

Having to use an older version of a product to get a functional, safe service proves the product itself is shit though.
I swear to fucking god, this is really pissing me off.
Every major developer is memeing their software up to this useless flat, minimalistic design that can't do shit.
HOW the fuck does a project go from this...
To this gabage?
What the fuck is wrong with people? It's like they are making software to show it off, not use it.
ITT: memed up software
LOL what kind of f*cking color scheme is that? Looks like the color or S*IT ;)
Is this what Linux users deal with XD

ebun
Default GTK3 Adwaita theme is not flat at all.
It has actually the least garish aesthetics out of all "default" OSes, or at least on par with osx.
Have a ssh service opened on port 22 and some IP from Vietnam is trying to crack my root password. And it's only been 17 hours of opening. How the fuck do people automatically know that I have ssh opened up?
Because you're running ssh on port 22 dumbass
>>56361589
They're scanning a range of ip's for commonly open ports.It's nothing personal or anything, it's like those annoying robo-calls you get, automated.

You can't be serious
Is this the best I can get for free?
yes. that's a dos program.
I hope you're not going to do this alone on your main machine, right anon?
Better find DoS exploits in old system versions (older services) instead.
I find HOIC to be better though

Google will just drop support/development just like so many other projects. Waste of money.
>>56361685
This.
Google is such a weird fucking company. It's like they want to be this weird mix of consumer products with the same company structure as an IBM, or other research, professional oriented business. Except instead of just letting smart people work on things, they find out what they're working on and sell it to people before it's done.

Java: How can I turn a string into a java runnable?
You mean like turning source code in the form of a string into bytecode during runtime?
There are libraries out there to do that, but there is almost a certainty that there is a better way to approach whatever problem you are trying to solve.
Factory pattern.RunnableFactory.get(string name)
if(name.equals("some string")) {
return new SomeRunnable();
}
I wrote a tic-tac-toe game in C++ (which is the only language I know anything about), and I'm trying to port it to Python since I'm taking a class on the latter. But I'm having trouble getting Python to clear out the window whenever I redraw the game board. Here's a glimpse at my primary loop in C++...for(;!gameOver;){
system("CLS");
drawBoard();
makeMove();
checkWin();
if (gameOver==1) break;
}
endGame();
I know that calling system() isn't a "good programming practice"; I'm just trying to make this thing work on MY PC and move on. Thing is, there's apparently no equivalent that works in IDLE. I don't really get all of the nuance of Python; I only know how to use it in IDLE.
What method should I be using to write/run my code, if not IDLE?
Is there a method that will give me a similar functionality to "CLS" in Python?
How to I turn my code into a file I can share with my friends?
Thanks in advance.
For the record, the game runs totally in a console window. The game board is printed with string literals and variables in std::cout. I'm using print() in python as a substitute.
>system("CLS")
Jesus fucking Christ. Smash your computer and switch majors to sports medicine
>for(;!gameover;)
Why not use a while loop?
What laptop should I get if I want a long battery life?
