Comment on How to block IP address ranges in uTorrent – using ipfilter.dat by Dood

Do you really think there is a small group that will manage an accurate and up-to-date list of 4,294,967,296 ip addresses with constantly changing owners for free? Congrats you are now blocking multiple thousands legitmate file sharers from sending you the file you want. It is a good scam to get you to install spyware and click on ads. You maybe should google “Dht crawling for fun and profit” which demonstrates a DHT flaw in Bittorrent which allows one person to track what files that millions of users are sharing each day. Then look for the option to disable DHT in your client until the Bittorrent authors find a fix.

Comment on Mac OS X Lion – exit Terminal from full-screen mode by Brent

Thank you… was in via VNC and clicked my terminal to full screen somehow; was going *mad* trying to close it. Pausing at the top did the trick even with the VNC delays.

Ipfilter support is built in to clients such as Utorrent . Peerguard and Peerblock useless waste of memory. Anybody that is really after you can change their ip in a flash. Ends up blocking like 10,000 legimate peers for every boogie man. Bittorrent needs to develope a trust network and client features that log ip that never send any files and share that info with the trackers.

Ctrl+O executes “Open file”, so how to send Ctrl+O to the terminal window instead?

Comment on How to setup Django and MySQL-python on Mac OS X Lion by Brock Klein

Sweet guide. The mysql_config and $PATH edit steps really sealed this one for me. No other guide seemed to have the right steps for that.

I now have MySQLdb working on Mac OS 10.7.5 with Python 2.7, MySQL 5.6 and MySQLdb 1.2.4b4.

Thanks a ton!
