Unhosted: Freedom from monopoly platforms

Wow... just wow... this looks to be the decentralized infrastructure that People Who Give a Damn / Visions Unite needs to match its decentralizing of power!

Unhosted is a project for strengthening free software against hosted software. With our protocol, a website is only source code. Dynamic data is encrypted and decentralised, to per-user storage nodes. This benefits free software, as well as scalability, robustness, and online privacy.

Anonymous comments as DOS attack

in other news, some of our sites have been hit with a constant barrage of "?page=528&size=node550" tacked onto various urls, esp. images. It seems so purposeless thought it might be a smokescreen for an attack like POST /comment/reply/50/370 that he also sees.

Um, so yeah. Looking at the actual page showed that it was the unprotected anonymous comments, around 140,000 of them, that eventually started hurting our server...

Add more design experts of different viewpoints, different genders and different races, and you're going to get products that are much better in terms of meeting the needs of a broader number of people.

Altering path and theme path of template files in Drupal 7 is just for make-believe?

Update: Issue posted. http://drupal.org/node/1028214

The goal is to use the book-variable.tpl.php (exactly like the book-variable.tpl.php is used, including how it gets overridden by themes) but without its preprocess function. Here's one fallback approach that should work, but doesn't, due to seeming weirdness in Drupal:

master-slave replication

any database that PHP can support, which includes Oracle and MSSQL (Microsoft)

PHP 4 is dead.

User 1 is still special

I want to just disable the alt (option) arrow as browser back one page behavior

i never press backspace by accident in a form, but i am used to option left arrow moving back one word at a time, not having the whole page go back. The benefit of backspace is that it works like a backspace when you are in a form element. The damn alt left arrow thing makes you go back no matter what you're doing on a page.

undefined method `set' for main:Object

When attempting to use, on a newly set up Ubuntu environment, the Vlad the Deployer scripts that Stefan set up for Agaric, i got this error:

undefined method `set' for main:Object

Turned out the need to install vlad (a rubygem) was properly documented on Deploying the Agaric Way already, and now has been added to our Installing Drubuntu document (which should probably be renamed installing Drubuntu the Agaric way...)

Update disabled

Until drush upc is fixed for disabled modules, this is the fastest way to fully upgrade

rm -rf logintoboggan; drush dl logintoboggan
git add -u logintoboggan
