And you are up tomorrow! 
Not "wanted to get rid of it", just liked the clue and thought it'd make an easy start to the week.

Felt a strong urge to respond with some choice comments but don't want to be lumbered with tomorrow's as I'm unlikely to be free at 9am.

From an open source site's help forum: Welcome to the forums. Since you neglected to follow the rules, I have locked your account for a week and closed this thread. Please take the 7 days to read the forum rules, after which, I hope you become a useful member of this community. We don't like hand holding around here, so if it doesn't take the full week for you to complete your reading, you can head over to the wiki and educate yourself before posting a question that is already listed in the existing documentation.
 Needless to say, the source will remain nameless. Admittedly, the question was about QA-typical, but not bottom of the barrel by any means.

So... it was Hashcat, wasn't it?

Heh,
Looks like Peter is asking about techniques regarding brute forcing of NTLM hashes. They brought out the ban hammer.

Actually a side trip on a wander round the web, starting with musings on why the eejits want to negotiate a key exchange with my ssh server that involves SHA1. Not possessing any of my 4 ED25519/SHA256 keys, they're not getting anywhere. I guess they're a small step above the unimaginative user/password mob.

I highly doubt anyone is targeting you. The diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 was disabled about a year ago, you are probably looking at scans of the entire 2^32 IPv4 address range. Everybody gets these everyday, it's the internet.
They would be looking for servers across the world that do not respond with the "no matching key exchange method found". Servers that agree to use SHA1 is an indicator that the ssh server is old and vulnerable.
Btw, the attacks you were complaining about in the 'The Weird and The Wonderful' forum were coming from a university in Moscow. I refrained from responding on your thread.
You shouldn't stare at your network logs, they seem to make you paranoid.

Apparently Farcebook threatens us all. They threaten to close down services in Europe. Oh bliss!

Not really.
It is partially ideological; Europe doesn't allow companies to dictate law.

I'm not normally a fan of the EU regulatory system, but I'll make an exception for Zuckerberg. I would hope that he spends all of his billions defending himself against violations of EU regulations, and ends up living under a bridge like any other troll.
Not likely, I know, but one can dream, can't one?

It was only a question of time. And this time, only this time, I root for the EU.

I think the appropriate response to them is, "do you promise?"
"They have a consciousness, they have a life, they have a soul! Damn you! Let the rabbits wear glasses! Save our brothers! Can I get an amen?"

I'm curious... if you hate Meta (and their crappy apps / sites) so much - can we assume you already don't use them? If you don't use them, why do you care if they exist or not?
Nearly every response in this thread is the same. I don't get it.
Disclaimer - I don't care for any of Meta's crap either - I don't use them - and I wouldn't care one way or another if they shut them all down or added more.

In part it may be jealousy, Zuckerberg is a nerd that actually made billions, he may be a thieving bastard but he got the prize. This irritates the crap out of the rest of us.
