昨天俺去看了十面埋伏了,第一感觉奏4:近几年看的喜剧片,没一部比它强的。何以见得?单听场内观众频繁的、默契的、发自内心的欢笑就能证明!!什么周星驰,奏会耍点嘴皮子搞搞无厘头,场面布景都透着小家子气,缺乏想象力。看人老谋子的戏……

哎,俺先搞点早饭再来详细写~~

Seems that Windows XP SP2 CHS has not released after ENU edition released for 13 days

| Security

It seems that Microsoft is still testing/finalizing the Windows XP SP2 release. Up to today’s check, it is not released here. Interestingly, a Korean edition (Korean is another asian language, which is usually listed with Chinese) has been released much more earlier, even before Japanese and Chinese (both Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese) editions.

ps(1) patch for FreeBSD 6-CURRENT

| Kernel

I have finished a preliminary patchset based on Pawel’s (kern/54604), which will make ps -e usable under FreeBSD’s recent versions, without having procfs mounted.

My patchset has introduced reduced security IMO (due to my merge and rooted from recent removal of ps_argsopen sysctl, I’m not sure why this change has been taken place) so I will have to review the code more carefully. Maybe I need to introduce more sysctl?

Some thought about the recent scenario

| Life

18K, 17K, 15K, then, 4K, nobody has said “Hey, I really care about that!”, unlike the good old days every 1K grown will cause many greets.

I am really disappointed about this, and feel grief. Once you get something from its very beginning, to its grown, and saw some successes, and someone else has taken it from your hand, promising it would be even more better, say “hey, you boy ain’t capable for that task”, well, I can bear it, but I can’t simply forgive ignorance of someone that is supposed to be responsible, said reasonable, then did something regrettable.

游泳归来

| Life

本周的计划上原本没有游泳的,不过由于一些变故今天没什么事情,于是去游泳。

最近运动比较少,不过无数的人跟我说要加强锻炼,不为别人,也算为自己着想吧,要求不高,但至少得活下去,而且活得好……

难道是宋堃的原创?没看出来啊?

其实每天来这里的人何止少数,想说的话又何止这些?其实那种欲言又止的情景多么让人莫名其妙却又无可奈何!并不是忙,也决不是故意把自己弄得很忙,只是处在不同的时间和生活空间让彼此不知从何说起。也许,距离就是这样产生的吧。每个人,每一天,都有太多的事发生,都有太多的话想说,却忽然开始怀疑是否别人愿意听,是否能够理解,讲与不讲意义有多大?于是,多少次伸向键盘的手还是缩了回来,留言的窗口终于被默默地关上。但当每次上网的第一件事仍然是到这里看看,虽然也知道留言的只占很少一部分。渐渐地成了一种习惯,不会改变,也不可能改变!想起了穆斯林的朝圣,无数人默默地在一起,谁也不说话,但却真真切切地感觉到彼此之间的亲切。终于明白了沉默又何尝不是一种问候与祝福。没有语言,没有约定,但我们每天都会到此,尽管在不同的时间和地方,这不也正是一种朝圣吗? ——-老词……强烈期待原创作品

没有赶上班车; 倒在床上立刻就睡着了

| Life

很久没有觉得这么累过了。

今天是周末,所以到了6点就匆匆收拾东西回家,但是由于一些事情耽搁了一下,还是眼睁睁看着班车走掉了。于是坐地铁,倒374,回家。

感觉很累,所以到了家就倒在床上睡着了。一直到23点才醒过来,洗澡,写blog,然后继续睡觉……

Aha... MD5 is vulnerable

| Security

Researchers have announced preliminary indications of previously unknown vulnerabilities in popular security algorithms that could permit hackers to easily install undetectable back doors into computer code or to counterfeit electronic signatures. French computer scientist Antoine Joux reported on Aug. 12 his discovery of a flaw in the MD5 algorithm, which is often used with digital signatures. The algorithm is known as a hash function, which extrapolates from all input a unique fingerprint; however, if a hacker could produce the same fingerprint with a different input stream, then the resulting hash collision would authenticate software as safe to download and execute even though it contains a back door. MD5 is employed by the open-source Apache Web server product as well as Sun Microsystems’ Solaris Fingerprint Database, and the flaw Joux uncovered means that a hacker can produce one hash collision in a few hours on a standard PC. Meanwhile, four Chinese researchers issued a paper reporting that the SHA-0 Secure Hash Algorithm could be subverted, while Israel Institute of Technology researchers Eli Biham and Rafi Chen revealed at the Crypto 2000 conference on Aug. 17 that they were investigating possible flaws in the SHA-1 algorithm, the only signing algorithm approved for use in the U.S. Digital Signature Standard. SHA-1, which is incorporated into popular programs such as SSL and PGP, is thought to be secure because knowingly producing hash collisions via existing methods is impossible. SHA-1 depends on a computer executing a routine 80 times as it tries to create a unique fingerprint, and Biham declared that he was able to copy the fingerprint for 36 of those 80 executions. If SHA-1 shares similar vulnerabilities with SHA-0, then attempts to falsify a fingerprint would be sped up about 500-fold.

beastie.frontfree.net 总算活过来了

| Life

人生一课——当你配置一个系统的时候,绝不要让它自动清除任何目录,哪怕是临时目录。

一个错误的fstab,一组正确的系统配置,一个好的内核,一根不该接的硬盘线,于是beastie非常忠实地履行了其责任——rm -rf /tmp/*,然而,被rm掉的是/var……
