Build a Gaming PC for $500 Just because you don't have a lot of money to spare doesn't mean you can't build a capable—and highly upgradable—gaming desktop. With the economy still struggling, personal budgeting remains vital. Even if you’re not in any financial trouble yourself (and if that’s the case, congratulations) you’re probably keeping a close eye on your bank account to reassure yourself that you’re secure should things take a turn for the worse. Luckily, that isn’t the case. We took a spin through Newegg.com to track down what we needed and had no problem coming up with a satisfying general-purpose PC with a strong gaming focus that came in just under $500. In the coming weeks we’ll examine ways you can expand this basic configuration if you have another $250, $500, $1,000, or $1,500 to spend on building a gaming system.

BinDiff zynamics BinDiff uses a unique graph-theoretical approach to compare executables by identifying identical and similar functions Description BinDiff is a comparison tool for binary files, that assists vulnerability researchers and engineers to quickly find differences and similarities in disassembled code. With BinDiff you can identify and isolate fixes for vulnerabilities in vendor-supplied patches. Use Cases Compare binary files for x86, MIPS, ARM, PowerPC, and other architectures supported by IDA Pro Identify identical and similar functions in different binaries Port function names, anterior and posterior comment lines, standard comments and local names from one disassembly to the other Detect and highlight changes between two variants of the same function To learn more about the features of BinDiff, you can download the Screenshots Screenshot 1: Changed functions are displayed in an easy-to-understand symmetric layout Screenshot 3: Linear disassembly style
TIOBE Software: Tiobe Index TIOBE Index for January 2016 January Headline: Java is TIOBE's Programming Language of 2015! Java has won the TIOBE Index programming language award of the year. This is because Java has the largest increase in popularity in one year time (+5.94%). Java leaves runner ups Visual Basic.NET (+1.51%) and Python (+1.24%) far behind. At first sight, it might seem surprising that an old language like Java wins this award. Java's rise goes hand in hand with Objective-C's decline (-5.88%). So what is the outlook for 2016? The TIOBE Programming Community index is an indicator of the popularity of programming languages. The index can be used to check whether your programming skills are still up to date or to make a strategic decision about what programming language should be adopted when starting to build a new software system.

Learn Linux, 302 (Mixed environments): CIFS integration In this article, learn about these concepts: The Server Message Block (SMB) and Common Internet File System (CIFS) protocolsFeatures and benefits of using CIFSMounting CIFS shares on a Linux client This article helps you prepare for Objective 314.1 in Topic 312 of the Linux Professional Institute's (LPI) Mixed Environment specialty exam (302). Prerequisites This article assumes that you have a working knowledge of Linux command-line functions and that you understand the basics of Samba configuration. Back to top Understanding SMB/CIFS Before proceeding with a description of how to use Linux as a client to an SMB/CIFS server, it's helpful to review the characteristics of the protocols to see how they compare with Linux's needs for a file system. Basic SMB features SMB provides several unique features from a networking perspective, including its own naming system for computers (Network Basic Input/Output System [NetBIOS] names), workgroups, and user authentication protocols.

Enlever l’obfuscation d’un code javascript Enlever l’obfuscation d’un code javascript L'obfuscation de code javascript sur un site web permet 2 choses... Gagner en taille avec le raccourcissement des variables et la suppression de l'indentation. Mais surtout rendre un peu plus obscur son code javascript pour un être humain normalement constitué. Et pourtant, il existe 2 méthodes simple pour "desobfuscationner" un code javascript sur un site web. Première méthode : Faites un copier coller du code, et rendez vous sur le site jsbeautifier.org afin de remettre tout ça en forme. Seconde méthode : Avec Chrome, il y a directement la possibilité de rendre lisible n'importe quel code javascript un peu torturé. Je pense que ça vous servira...

WebParser plugin - Rainmeter 2.4 Manual - Waterfox Plugin=WebParser reads and parses information from web pages. This example creates two StringIndex values in what is referred to as the "parent" WebParser measure. The information is generally used in subsequent "child" WebParser measures: The values of the two child measures are now the information parsed into StringIndexes 1 and 2 by the parent measure. These can then be used with MeasureName and other options in meters. General measure options All general measure options are valid. URL to the site or file to be downloaded and parsed. WebParser cannot use cookies or other session-based authentication, so it cannot be used to retrieve information from web sites requiring a login. WebParser can read and parse local files on your computer by using the URI scheme. If you want to use the current value of a measure in a dynamic way as a Section Variable, rather than as a reference to a "parent" WebParser measure, you must prefix the name of the measure with the & character.

Relationship on the Mac App Store How to Create Custom Start Orb Image How to Create a Custom Start Orb Before I begin, keep in mind this is my first tutorial ever published to SevenForums, I hope it meets the requirements and all that jazz, and that somebody finds it at least mildly helpful. Requirements and Tools To begin with, you must have an image editing application, PhotoShop is one of the most powerful and widely known, but any application that works with bitmaps (BMP) and supports alpha trasparency layers will do just fine. Warning Be sure to check your DPI settings before you continue; DPI settings (Dots Per Inch) in Windows determine the size that everything on your desktop displays, making text and buttons larger without changing the screen resolution. You can generally see what DPI you're using by the size of your current Start Orb and Taskbar, below is an example of the same resolution with three DPI settings: The next page displayed will show your currently selected DPI setting: The Start Orb Create a new image with the following settings: Note
Photoshop Alternatives for Linux Photoshop is without doubt the most well known piece of photo editing software. It is used by serious hobby photographers and professionals alike. However, although you can run Photoshop on a Linux machine by using a virtual box containing a Windows operating system, there are some good alternatives available on Linux. GIMPShop GIMPShop is essentially the same as GIMP but it has been modified to be more like Photoshop. Darktable Darktable describes itself as a photography workflow application: a virtual lighttable and darkroom for photographers. Krita Krita is a great image editor which really focuses on images creation rather than photo editing. Picasa 3 for Linux Picasa 3 is currently in beta but proves to be a great free tool for photo editing in Linux. Cautionary Tale: LightZone for Linux One word of caution. Web editors In addition to these programs there are now several web based tools which are great for making simple edits.
