!@#$%^&*() It's gone again, somehow I can't get my addition to stay. I added a paragraph about the disadvantages of the .40 S&W compared to the 10 mm and about how it was practically suffering from the same breakage probs when fired from rechambered 9 mm weapons. I thought the article was way to much in favor of the .40.

Does anyone know how to permanently save changes you make to Wiki?

It just so happened that today I was introduced to the SUDO command in Linux at uni. And I knew it already cause I looked it up after reading this thread.

once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot  xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.

I sort of got it because I recently bought an Asus eeepc, which runs on linux. I messed around for a bit and I had to use the 'sudo' command to do some stuff in the console. I don't really know what it means but I guess it sets the user of that command as authorized?

The ultimate geek humor is The Unix-Haters Handbook.

For example, consider !xxx%s%s%s%s%s%s%s%s

Unix-Haters Handbook wrote:

Subject: Relevant Unix bug
October 11, 1991
Fellow W4115x students—
While we’re on the subject of activation records, argument
passing, and calling conventions, did you know that typing:

!xxx%s%s%s%s%s%s%s%s

to any C-shell will cause it to crash immediately? Do you know why?

Questions to think about:
  • What does the shell do when you type “!xxx”?
  • What must it be doing with your input when you type“!xxx%s%s%s%s%s%s%s%s” ?
  • Why does this crash the shell?
  • How could you (rather easily) rewrite the offending part of the shell

so as not to have this problem?
MOST IMPORTANTLY:
• Does it seem reasonable that you (yes, you!) can bring what may be
the Future Operating System of the World to its knees in 21 keystrokes?

Try it. By Unix’s design, crashing your shell kills all your processes and
logs you out. Other operating systems will catch an invalid memory reference
and pop you into a debugger. Not Unix.

Perhaps this is why Unix shells don’t let you extend them by loading new
object code into their memory images, or by making calls to object code in
other programs. It would be just too dangerous. Make one false move
and—bam—you’re logged out. Zero tolerance for programmer error.
