gnufreex | I think if those rumors are true | Sep 15 20:31 |
gnufreex | It is not VMware who is buying SUSE | Sep 15 20:31 |
gnufreex | Reasons: VMware recently anounced partnership | Sep 15 20:32 |
gnufreex | It pumped Novell stock price litle up | Sep 15 20:32 |
gnufreex | When you buying someone, you want stock prices to go down to get it cheper | Sep 15 20:32 |
gnufreex | VMware have posibly given up, and decided to up the price in order to make it harder for someone else to buy. | Sep 15 20:34 |
gnufreex | But this is wishful thinking becasue I don't want VMware to have SuSE. | Sep 15 20:34 |

Chips_B_Malroy | "The exploit, to be shown off at the Ekoparty Conference later this week, could affect millions of websites that use AES encryption functions built into Microsoft's ASP.NET software to protect the integrity of cookies during user sessions. Since 'sessions' are used in web applications such as online banking, shopping and just about any website that requires a login, the exploit is particularly worrying." | Sep 15 21:31 |
Chips_B_Malroy | "Thai Duong and Juliano Rizzo, the two researchers who showcased the attack, told reporters, "We knew ASP.NET was vulnerable to our attack several months ago, but we didn't know how serious it is until a couple of weeks ago. It turns out that the vulnerability in ASP.NET is the most critical amongst other frameworks. In short, it totally destroys ASP.NET security."" | Sep 15 21:32 |
Diablo-D3 | um | Sep 15 21:32 |
Diablo-D3 | but heres a problem | Sep 15 21:32 |
Diablo-D3 | ALL security bugs are critical | Sep 15 21:32 |
Chips_B_Malroy | "Duong and Rizzo's last statement claiming that their attack "totally destroys" security is particularly chilling. Apparently the technique used in the exploit has been around since 2002 and it is surprising that not only has Microsoft missed this one but also security researchers and hackers who are usually adept at taking advantage of any seemingly minor weakness in code." | Sep 15 21:33 |
Diablo-D3 | up to the point its above critical | Sep 15 21:33 |
Diablo-D3 | critical just means shit can go horribly wrong | Sep 15 21:33 |
Diablo-D3 | security flaws are a step above that | Sep 15 21:33 |
Chips_B_Malroy | especially critial with Microsoft | Sep 15 21:33 |
Diablo-D3 | I just assume Microsoft shit already has known security flaws and go from there | Sep 15 21:34 |
Diablo-D3 | it makes life easier | Sep 15 21:34 |
Chips_B_Malroy | "Duong said, "It's worth noting that the attack is 100 [per cent] reliable, [that is], one can be sure that once they run the attack, they can exploit the target. It's just a matter of time. If the attacker is lucky, then he can own any ASP.NET website in seconds. The average time for the attack to complete is 30 minutes. The longest time it ever takes is less than 50 minutes."" | Sep 15 21:34 |

TechrightsBot-tr | Title: Microsoft to borrow because it can not repatriate the 28 billion abroad | NewsKF .::. Size~: 22.77 KB | Sep 15 21:35 |
Chips_B_Malroy | this article is very interesting. in what it does not say | Sep 15 21:36 |
Chips_B_Malroy | it appears to me, that if Microsoft actually has 36.8 billion in cash, (if we believe them or not) and its mostly outside the USA, is Microsoft doing this to avoid taxes? | Sep 15 21:37 |
Chips_B_Malroy | I would say yes. | Sep 15 21:37 |
Diablo-D3 | well | Sep 15 21:38 |
Diablo-D3 | to be fair | Sep 15 21:38 |
Diablo-D3 | if you're an international company | Sep 15 21:38 |
Diablo-D3 | and you can avoid taxes | Sep 15 21:38 |
Diablo-D3 | you MUST do it | Sep 15 21:38 |
Diablo-D3 | otherwise your shareholders could reasonably sue you if they felt like being dicks | Sep 15 21:38 |
Chips_B_Malroy | Or to avoid auditing, and perhaps Microsoft really does not have 36.8 billion scattered around world? | Sep 15 21:38 |
Diablo-D3 | and generally, they're dicks | Sep 15 21:38 |
MinceR | only if you're an international public company :> | Sep 15 21:38 |
MinceR | but m$ is one | Sep 15 21:38 |
Diablo-D3 | MinceR: well yeah | Sep 15 21:38 |
Diablo-D3 | even private ones have owners | Sep 15 21:38 |
Diablo-D3 | people who arent IN the company but still have large stakes | Sep 15 21:39 |
MinceR | those owners do get to make all the calls though | Sep 15 21:39 |
Diablo-D3 | they usually dont get to make any | Sep 15 21:39 |
Diablo-D3 | they just get to be pissy when their investment isnt growing fast enough | Sep 15 21:39 |
MinceR | they're usually few enough that they can say "we don't want even the appearance of evading taxes" | Sep 15 21:39 |
Chips_B_Malroy | So is it possible, that MS could actually default in the USA and still be rich in the rest of the world? | Sep 15 21:40 |
Diablo-D3 | ahh, but theres ILLEGALLY evading taxes | Sep 15 21:40 |
Diablo-D3 | and then theres doing it legally | Sep 15 21:40 |
Chips_B_Malroy | without borrowing | Sep 15 21:40 |
Diablo-D3 | theres an absolute fuckton of ways of screwing governments on taxes legally | Sep 15 21:40 |
Diablo-D3 | a company MUST do it | Sep 15 21:40 |
Chips_B_Malroy | MS has been caught evading before | Sep 15 21:40 |
Diablo-D3 | MS has been caught bending and breaking rules | Sep 15 21:41 |
Chips_B_Malroy | yes | Sep 15 21:41 |
Diablo-D3 | but if no one nails them to the wall for it, they're not "wrong" | Sep 15 21:41 |
Diablo-D3 | especially if they can pay off the right people | Sep 15 21:41 |
Chips_B_Malroy | agreed | Sep 15 21:41 |
Chips_B_Malroy | standard operating procedure there | Sep 15 21:41 |
Diablo-D3 | which microsoft has 36.8 billion to do so with | Sep 15 21:41 |
Chips_B_Malroy | maybe | Sep 15 21:41 |
Diablo-D3 | and they'll pay off anyone who says otherwise | Sep 15 21:41 |
Diablo-D3 | but hey | Sep 15 21:41 |
Diablo-D3 | its better than, say, russia | Sep 15 21:42 |
Diablo-D3 | which they'll just kill you | Sep 15 21:42 |
Diablo-D3 | russia is so horrible, even microsoft doesnt wanna be part of that shit | Sep 15 21:42 |
Chips_B_Malroy | MS moves its cash around, like a 3 card monte game | Sep 15 21:42 |
Diablo-D3 | technically thats check kiting | Sep 15 21:42 |
Chips_B_Malroy | from the last link: "Microsoft?s largest software producer in the world, intends to borrow this year ?as much as possible? to pay dividends and share repurchases, the company having a lot of cash locked outside the United States, told Bloomberg a source close to the situation, says Telegraph Business." | Sep 15 21:43 |
Chips_B_Malroy | which makes me tend to think, that MS does not have a lot of free cash within the USA to use. | Sep 15 21:44 |
Diablo-D3 | which that statement alone doesnt say much | Sep 15 21:44 |
Diablo-D3 | they probably dont have free cash IN the us to use | Sep 15 21:44 |
Diablo-D3 | I bet they have a lot of short term investments they dont wanna dump yet | Sep 15 21:44 |
Diablo-D3 | or other stuff that they COULD do, but it would be not a great idea to do it | Sep 15 21:44 |
Diablo-D3 | remember, you have to look at this in comparison to the entire economy | Sep 15 21:45 |
Diablo-D3 | if you dont have to spend your own money, dont; spend money of other's | Sep 15 21:45 |
Chips_B_Malroy | This is supposedly their most profitable market, so why does not Microsoft have lots of cash to spare in the USA? | Sep 15 21:45 |
Diablo-D3 | arguably profitable | Sep 15 21:45 |
Diablo-D3 | they probably pay the most taxes here and have the most employees here | Sep 15 21:45 |
Chips_B_Malroy | they are either skimming it somehow, or dodging taxes somehow | Sep 15 21:46 |
Chips_B_Malroy | or its just not there | Sep 15 21:46 |
Diablo-D3 | like I said | Sep 15 21:46 |
Diablo-D3 | if you can spend the money of other before your own money, do it | Sep 15 21:46 |
Diablo-D3 | they probably have quite a few investments that they will loose money if they sell | Sep 15 21:47 |
Chips_B_Malroy | whats the word I am looking for. Laundrying | Sep 15 21:47 |
MinceR | how difficult is it to move cash into the usa? | Sep 15 21:47 |
Diablo-D3 | MinceR: pita if its locked up in non-liquid assets | Sep 15 21:47 |
Diablo-D3 | Chips_B_Malroy: no. | Sep 15 21:47 |
Chips_B_Malroy | what I am saying, is MS is moving cash to outside the USSA | Sep 15 21:47 |
Diablo-D3 | lets say you invested in something at the height of the market 3-4 years ago | Sep 15 21:48 |
Chips_B_Malroy | *USA | Sep 15 21:48 |
Diablo-D3 | you havent lost any money until you're interested in selling it | Sep 15 21:48 |
Diablo-D3 | once you sell it, you've THEN lost money | Sep 15 21:48 |
Diablo-D3 | it works on the flip side, you havent made any money until you sell it 2-3 years from now. | Sep 15 21:48 |
Diablo-D3 | microsoft, and they're not alone, has investments that would be a very bad idea to sell now | Sep 15 21:48 |
Diablo-D3 | they COULD | Sep 15 21:49 |
Diablo-D3 | but they'd lose money | Sep 15 21:49 |
m1k11e | What to sell? | Sep 15 21:49 |
*m1k11e is now known as gnufreex | Sep 15 21:49 | |
Diablo-D3 | their strategy to borrow to meet obligations is cheaper than selling. | Sep 15 21:49 |

gnufreex | Quasell is buggy. | Sep 15 21:50 |
Chips_B_Malroy | Let me ask this question in another way. If this money is not here in the USA, and therefore MS needs to borrow it. Then which countries in particular, is where the money stored? | Sep 15 21:50 |

Diablo-D3 | so if they feel it costs them less to borrow than to sell assets at a loss or to move money internationally, then they will use the option that costs less | Sep 15 21:53 |
Diablo-D3 | period. | Sep 15 21:53 |
Chips_B_Malroy | The only problem is how did MS move that money (launderd) made in the USA, to other countries, and did they pay taxes in the USA before doing it? | Sep 15 21:53 |

Diablo-D3 | they bought sun and all the sudden felt like the big shits on campus or something | Sep 15 22:04 |
Chips_B_Malroy | There's another reason the MS stock never reaches a high figure not discussed widely or at all. Every time the stock price goes up, Gates and insiders dump a lot of it, depressing the price as well. | Sep 15 22:04 |
Diablo-D3 | I mean, jesus christ, I could have bought sun | Sep 15 22:04 |

Chips_B_Malroy | So Microsoft has been buying back stocks for a long time now. But now, they are out of money in the USA, so they have to borrow money in the USA to support more buying back of stocks and higher dividends, in order to get the stock prices up, so that the insiders can dump more stock for higher prices. | Sep 15 22:10 |

TechrightsBot-tr | Title: Will Microsoft And Nokia Team Up To Take On Apple, Google? .::. Size~: 54.71 KB | Sep 15 22:13 |
Chips_B_Malroy | I know this has been discussed on this forum to great detail. | Sep 15 22:13 |
Chips_B_Malroy | I just had to add a couple of points here. First, while I mostly agree with Roy's point that MS has put their man in charge of Nokia, it could turn out the other way around. I say Roy is probably 60% correct on this one. As in theirs a 40% chance that actually Elop hates MS at this point and couldn't wait to get away from them. | Sep 15 22:16 |
Chips_B_Malroy | Why I think Roy is right. | Sep 15 22:16 |
Chips_B_Malroy | from the link: "In rapid succession, the company has ousted its CEO, 30-year Nokia veteran Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo, appointed a new CEO, Stephen Elop, a Microsoft executive from the enterprise software side, and seen the departure of Anssi Vanjoki, head of mobile solutions and one-time CEO candidate" | Sep 15 22:17 |
Chips_B_Malroy | Anssi Vanjoki had 29 years with Nokia as an employee. He should have got the job, and yet, Nokia went outside the company and hired, Ask why? | Sep 15 22:18 |
cubevector | MSFT has been hovering around the mid-20s for a long time | Sep 15 22:20 |
Chips_B_Malroy | Stephen Elop got a top job at Microsoft like many others at Microsoft did. Few actually rise from the ranks at MS and get to the very top ranks. Why is this? Elop owned his own company before joining Microsoft and getting that gravy job. Its only the powerful from outside the company that get those jobs. | Sep 15 22:20 |
Chips_B_Malroy | Elop was already rich before getting the MS job. | Sep 15 22:21 |
Chips_B_Malroy | Look at the board of directors at MS, the guy that is the Netflix CEO that got the position | Sep 15 22:22 |
Chips_B_Malroy | These big positions are more about power and money deals than promoting actual talented people from within | Sep 15 22:22 |
Chips_B_Malroy | Which is why Anssi Vanjoki never had a chance for that position. | Sep 15 22:23 |
Chips_B_Malroy | And most of the rank and file at Microsoft will never advance very far. | Sep 15 22:23 |

Chips_B_Malroy | Markzware's InDesign plugin is designed to provide single-click migration of Publisher documents | Sep 15 22:53 |
Chips_B_Malroy | While you might not encounter it very often, Microsoft Publisher is still very much alive, thanks to its presence within the Microsoft Office suite. It serves a useful purpose as a way to lay out relatively simple documents, primarily destined for consumption by fellow employees. But what if a Publisher document needs to be sent to a service bureau for output? Or perhaps a document needs to be enhanced via the greater | Sep 15 22:53 |
Chips_B_Malroy | capabilities of Adobe InDesign? | Sep 15 22:53 |
Chips_B_Malroy | To the rescue comes Markzware's PUB2ID, an InDesign plugin that can import and convert Publisher 2002 through 2010 files, while preserving the content, as well as the styles and formatting. Items that PUB2ID can convert from Publisher to InDesign include page size, positioning, color models, fonts and styles, text attributes and tables, text flow, layers, text wrap and linked text boxes, as well as providing automatic | Sep 15 22:53 |
Chips_B_Malroy | extraction of images embedded in the Publisher file. Version 3 now works with both InDesign CS4 and CS5. | Sep 15 22:53 |
Chips_B_Malroy | No trial version of the plugin is available but a sample document can be uploaded to the Markzware site for free conversion. PUB2ID for Mac and Windows can be purchased on the Markzware site for $199. | Sep 15 22:53 |

Diablo-D3 | it culminated in a bizzaro apache patchset | Sep 15 23:40 |
Diablo-D3 | this happened years ago | Sep 15 23:41 |
Diablo-D3 | its no longer the policy | Sep 15 23:41 |
bruce89 | I think that is besides the poinnt | Sep 15 23:41 |
oiaohm | apache was the worst example. Diablo-D3 but there are still maintainers still doing the wrong thing inside debian. But it has reduced. | Sep 15 23:42 |
oiaohm | And when did Ubuntu mostly branch off from Debian. Diablo-D3 | Sep 15 23:42 |
schestowitz | [23:32] <Diablo-D3> osnews is 100% bullshit | Sep 15 23:42 |
schestowitz | Deleted from my feeds | Sep 15 23:42 |
schestowitz | Last year | Sep 15 23:42 |
schestowitz | Thom ruined it for me far too many times | Sep 15 23:42 |
Diablo-D3 | bruce89: no, oiaohm keeps bringing it up | Sep 15 23:42 |
oiaohm | Because it still ongoing Diablo-D3 | Sep 15 23:43 |
Diablo-D3 | bruce89: the policy is now correctly interpreted to prevent this | Sep 15 23:43 |
Diablo-D3 | oiaohm: not really | Sep 15 23:43 |
Diablo-D3 | only when upstream is absolutely insane does debian maintain large patchsets | Sep 15 23:43 |
oiaohm | I know from build errors on the stable of debian that turn up with wine from time to time. Diablo-D3 | Sep 15 23:43 |

oiaohm | It does not need to be a large patch set to cause a issue. Diablo-D3 | Sep 15 23:44 |
oiaohm | Ie large patch set makes it high risk. | Sep 15 23:44 |
oiaohm | And more likely to go splat in a large way. | Sep 15 23:44 |
oiaohm | Blocking the large patchsets was a step in the right direction | Sep 15 23:44 |
oiaohm | But there is more that need to be done to make maintainers run test cases and work with upstream better. | Sep 15 23:45 |
oiaohm | No matter how much you want to defend it. Debian policy still has a way to go. Diablo-D3 But I will give it heading in the right direction. | Sep 15 23:46 |
Diablo-D3 | well, are you saying distros cant have patches at all? | Sep 15 23:47 |
Diablo-D3 | because thats bullshit | Sep 15 23:47 |
oiaohm | I am not saying distributions cannot have patches. | Sep 15 23:47 |
Diablo-D3 | and almost all of debian's patches come from upstream's repos | Sep 15 23:49 |
oiaohm | Quality control is something that is weak in the process of most distributions. Running to test cases to make sure there patch not nuked some other part is critical. | Sep 15 23:49 |
Diablo-D3 | or patches off their bug trackers | Sep 15 23:49 |
Diablo-D3 | oiaohm: I agree | Sep 15 23:49 |
Diablo-D3 | but | Sep 15 23:49 |

Diablo-D3 | any example you're going to come up with involves lack of tests | Sep 15 23:49 |
Diablo-D3 | ie, either it doesnt have tests, or it didnt have a test for that specific behavior | Sep 15 23:49 |
Diablo-D3 | the famous openssh incident was due to openssh not properly vetting their source. | Sep 15 23:50 |
oiaohm | Lot could be blocked but running tests. | Sep 15 23:50 |
oiaohm | Ok some that don't have tests will get threw. | Sep 15 23:50 |

Diablo-D3 | oiaohm: yes | Sep 15 23:50 |
Diablo-D3 | packaging is a two way street, though | Sep 15 23:51 |
Diablo-D3 | and a lot of upstreams just shit on package maintainers | Sep 15 23:51 |
oiaohm | what would really impress me is auto system where new .deb/rpm/what ever package format gets uploaded to be include and server runs the testcases before it goes into the main repo. | Sep 15 23:51 |
oiaohm | So reducing human error and packaging. | Sep 15 23:52 |

oiaohm | A lot of upstreams lack proper testcase systems as well. Diablo-D3 | Sep 15 23:52 |
oiaohm | The QA is one of the big devils that needs to be taken on with opensource. | Sep 15 23:53 |
Diablo-D3 | yes, if upstream has fucked QA. you cant blame debian | Sep 15 23:53 |
Diablo-D3 | or any distro | Sep 15 23:53 |
bruce89 | "I'm not convinced that Ubuntu is anything more than Debian + codec prompts + a marketing budget" | Sep 15 23:54 |
Diablo-D3 | but debian DOES run tests | Sep 15 23:54 |
Diablo-D3 | and yes, sometimes, very rarely, they override failures on specific archs | Sep 15 23:54 |
oiaohm | Really the maintainers in the distrobutions should be out there pushing for QA systems. | Sep 15 23:54 |
Diablo-D3 | such as mips or arm when they know its a mips or arm bug | Sep 15 23:54 |
Diablo-D3 | oiaohm: they do | Sep 15 23:54 |
Diablo-D3 | but some shits so goddamned small and little used, tests are overkill | Sep 15 23:54 |
oiaohm | Problem is what is small today might be big in future. Diablo-D3 | Sep 15 23:55 |
oiaohm | That is where some of the large items with QA problems get into the systme. | Sep 15 23:55 |
Diablo-D3 | and when it DOES become big, they welcome patches. | Sep 15 23:55 |
Diablo-D3 | so quit bitching about it, and go write some tests | Sep 15 23:56 |
oiaohm | Really most of my recent errors with debian packages ie last 12 months tracked back to maintainer opps moment. | Sep 15 23:57 |
oiaohm | Ie missed running the tests. | Sep 15 23:57 |
oiaohm | Human error does happen. | Sep 15 23:57 |
oiaohm | Yes I am picky. Diablo-D3 | Sep 15 23:58 |
