Is Yava talking about a real live death?

Death of a vodka bottle... ie - "dead soldier"... [X(] [:'(]

i've read that when cleaning up after a party and there are some half-consumed containers of alcohol scattered about, some people like to consume them (all in a good cause of cleanliness) - such a practice is known as "bayonetting the wounded" [X(] [X(][:D]

A denial of service attack from a searchbot. The data base recorded a single IP address that generated tens of thousands of hits in the space of several minutes. We're working on it.

Not that it was a deliberate denial of service attack as far as I know, but there are these webcrawler thingys that visit and crawl through every page of a website. The damage report lists a visit by an "Unknown robot (identified by 'robot')" that generated 33725 hits on "26 Jun 2007 at 14:11" And sucked up 1.67 GB of bandwidth, which crashed the site.
The average bandwith used by MCS to serve the 1500 or so unique vistors every day is less than 600 MB, and the typical search bot such as google uses 10 MB or less.

This is just for the people that are really interested. Plus I got little else to do but wait for the server to reset itself, as I aint enough of a geek to figure out how to reset the "max query limit" manually.

Death is sometime preferable to hangovers

Well he apparently went to one of the dorms for a party and now he's dying in the kitchen...[:@][:D] Soldiers! Vodka kills! We are not afraid of death!

Son, thats a mean @ss hangover. Death looks slightly different...but often feels the same. [:D]

[:D] He'll be ok... but it will take time for his stomache to start working again... and his spider in the head to start moving again... damn how can one be so stupid... I must say I've been drunk but never so drunk...

As a network admin i would recomend you do that. I had mail gateways that keep getting taken down a number of years ago till i started setting max number of connections and other such fun stuff. Reboot fixes it for a day till they decide to come back.

What sort of Bot would be able to take up that bandwidth? Are the ones the FBI use that big? They caught one of our Directors with their anti-paedophile campaign and passed his details on to the UK Police. I think they paid the B*****d off rather than face the embarrassment.
