world crass crackers
I see why I genuniely thought you were a Scottish Asian of indeterminate gender when you first started on here (he/she is likely to also be brainy with computers) – soon the official languages of tech (English and French) will also become a mixture of “Engrish” and the Germanic/Scandinavian languages :laugh_at:
I had already this week had to program 10 Chinese communications radios using a mixture of their official (Engrish) and open source software-and double check they were all correct on frequency and not that of the Fire Brigade UHF sets (they still use analogue).
Then due to a confusion over how a DC-DC converter on some hardware I was working on is connected internally I sparked a -27V DC supply direct to frame earth (which is why there are 6 safety fuses in it in the L- supply). This is still is scary and made me think of Shun Gon [the Traditional Siamese cat] in the Aristocats saying to the kitten “ai, he brew it!”
This software flaw is very similar to how those MS proprietary apps often use the insecure Jet engine password encrypt; so the master database table is wide open.
Often monkeying about with passwords elsewhere in a user table or setting a blanco field is picked up by the app as corrupt database; but as long as you know one for a low level user right next to it is often an access level code that can be used to escalate your priveliges and you can set up a new one. (I add the wallpaper of the “viskat” (NL: fishing cat) to any system where this has been done as a marker.
