Victim of MySQL Injection. February 11, 2012
Posted by very in : Rants, Security, Tech, Troubleshooting , add a commentIn the morning of February 10th, 2012 I received a frantic phone call from a client; their site was compromised. So I spent good portions of Friday and Saturday cleaning up a site that was hacked through MySQL injection. I found out that the hack came through an old installation of WordPress 2.1.4.
So far, so good. I’ll be watching the site for any suspicious activities.

With this kind of download speed… January 12, 2012
Posted by very in : News, Rants, Tech , add a commentDear Verizon,
As of today you are the only Internet provider in this particular area, yet you’re only offering a sub-standard DSL service. The contract says that it is a “high speed Internet” up to 1 Mbps downstream. So what cause the downstream speed to be so abysmal? A 64 Kbps is far from 1 Mbps. Well, at least you’re sending some technician to come on Friday.

Super Ultra Extreme Pro Plus. January 4, 2012
Posted by 37prime in : News, Rants, Tech , add a commentWhat is Ultrabook?
- Ultrabook⢠according to Intel.
- Ultrabook according to Wikipedia.
What’s better than Ultrabook?
Does it mean anything?
NO!
The naming system is as useless as the term “4G” or “SuperPhone“.
Speaking of “SuperPhone”, it will never save you from the Super-Villains. Does anyone remember when Google called Nexus One as “SuperPhone”?

Twitter 4.0 for iPhone, extra steps to switch between accounts. December 8, 2011
Posted by very in : Apps, iPhone, Rants, Tech , add a commentOne thing I’m missing in Twitter 4.0 for iPhone is the ability to quickly switch between accounts. The new interface now adds one extra step. Previously you only have to tap the “Accounts” arrow on the top left of the app. With Twitter 4.0 for iPhone, you have to tap “Me”, scroll to the bottom of the page, then “Switch accounts”.
