They're not targeting you as you, what they are targeting with their attack scripts is every server on an IP address in the range: 1-255.1-255.1-255.1-255 either sequentially up and down the entire list of IPs or by randomly generating them one after the next. (Yes I know the smarter script kiddiots will exclude some unused sub ranges; but that's irrelevant to my point.) Unless your public facing servers are IPv6 only, that means you're in their crosshairs as much as everyone else. These auto-attack scanners cover the entire range of IPv4's fast enough that in many cases there may only be a few hours from when a popular CMS gets an attack published to when every non-patched server has to be assumed as compromised.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Yes, that's the theory, but there are still no instances of this happening that I found in s 15-minute google session (and my google-fu is not to be sneered at) (note: I don't use google, just as my hoover is a Dyson).
Why go to the trouble of trying to shotgun every IP in the world, when all you have to do is focus on e-mail addresses and phish -- which has been proven to work time and time again?
E.g. if you want to attack JP Morgan, you go for a phishing trip that emails [every initial].[every surname]@jpmorgan.com (or whatever their domain is).
That is what they do, and it works -- and it's so very, very easy that all the lovely theories about how they number-crunch are, and will forever remain, paranoid theories.
You're a developer. Would you go for the ridiculously ineffective big-numbers game, or take the KISS route, or go the simple but effective way?
They're developers, too, so there are no prizes for guessing the answer to that.

The user cannot be pleased. Whatever is done will always be the opposite of what the user wants. What the user requests the user rejects when it is given. Users are contrary by default. Users can start an argument in an empty room. Failure to recognise the right of the user to be permanently unhappy will result in vituperative forum posting, mocking reviews, and an EU investigation leading to absurdly large fines and impossibly complex regulation whatever the actual verdict!
The user, in short, is why we can't have nice stuff. First, let's kill all the users!

Yet another reason I am no hurry to leave 8.1 behind: [^].
fyi: if I didn't know that the WinAero site was a "serious" site, I'd probably consider this either a bad joke, or a bad rumor.
«There is a spectrum, from "clearly desirable behaviour," to "possibly dodgy behavior that still makes some sense," to "clearly undesirable behavior." We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors.

You don't have to disable it completely, just select the first radio button below the switch, as it only allows local network computers, not computers on the internet.
It is completely off for me by default, it seems, which is file as I only have one WinX computer.
And yes, this means WinX can and does do this.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Love the way the site puts watermarks on the screenshots of the God-awful win 10 Control-Panel replacement.
"Yeah! Let's steal their screenshots! It's easier than hitting Alt+PrtScr!"

Yes it can, the operative word being 'can', but we knew that long before it was even released. Why are we getting upset about it now?

The first episode finally arrived to our shores on the weekend. All the comments seen before were unfortunately all very correct.
I’ve heard of Chris Evans before, although he has never really been on our screens here much before. (It really does bugger belief why he famous.) His voice is like fingernails on a blackboard which sends shivers on my spine and his mannerisms and looks are a bit like Brains from the Thunderbirds (no discredit to Brains intended). But that another story.
My question really, for all you UKians, who by now have seen later episodes is, Does it get any better or are you still having to cringe and quince every time Chris open his mouth, just to get to the tolerable parts of the program he not in?

Nope, only the one.
If episode one had been good, I'd have put a reminder in Sky+ - but it wasn't, and I was watching Breaking Bad instead (long story).
However, the viewing figures would kind of match my experience: List of Top Gear episodes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[^] E01: 6.42 MViewers, E02: 2.80MViewers.
That's bad, for a show that used to get 6 or 7 MViewers every week...

I heard one the later ones is better and in particular Jenson Button. Have to wait and see...

|

Difficult to see how it could be much worse, to be honest...

The second is better, but because there was less Chris and more Matt/Eddie + guests.

Evan is a very clever guy -- a lot smarter than the labradoodle snob.
He'll find his stride soon enough.

Actually I rather like "Please slow drively!" They should make all the signs that way. While drivers are working it out it may just have the desired effect (well, on the few that actually read signs at all anyway).

I don't know. Some people would need more brainpower than they have at their disposal to "work it out" and drive at the same time.

This reminds me why I hate American humour.
I prefer people to laugh with me, than "Hey! Let's laugh at that guy!"
If it had been themed "Um... Ooops!", rather than "Hey, let's point and sneer at people who made mistakes in things they're not good at!", some of them would have been funny.
Everybody -- including Everybody, i.e. not excluding you and I -- is not good at an awful lot of things.

I'm trying to convert my java code to JavaScript but its not working.
Should I submit a bug report?
|
|
|
|

Most definitely. Google should fix this issue.
Meanwhile you can dump your code in the Q&A forum and demand that someone translates it for you. 
It has happened before.
|
|
|
|
|
What?
You don't have to translate anything. I know a guy who always said they are the same thing.
You probably just need :
<script type="text/javascript">
Add that to your .py file and everything will go great.
Compile using c:\>csc *.txt > .js and you're good to go.
