LordLandon_··on Hacking wireless presenters with an Arduino and Metasploit
This makes me wonder.... The dv6000 series (and probably others) have an infrared receiver on them to use with a little remote that comes inserted into the thing. Now the IR port isn't exposed as an actual IR device, because pressing buttons on the remote just sends keystrokes, so you can see where this is going...

The dv6000's are pretty common, I see people with them all the time, and although you'd need line of sight to send keystrokes, your target wouldn't need to be using any dongle, just a particular laptop. Now that's scary.

Looks like someone else's been playing too much Rez too.
LordLandon_··on I don't like Python. Does that make me a bad person?

  [(i+1)**2 for i in a if i%3!=2]
Goes through the list once, and reads like set notation! (and does i+1 once, which is what I assume you were going for with the separate [i+1 for i in a])

> If Django were in C, I would know what a request object really was, grep for it, and look up the header file.

If Django were in python, you wouldn't even have to grep

>>> import django.http, inspect >>> print inspect.getsource(django.http.HttpRequest)
