Since I stumbled upon PHP5’s SPL (Standard PHP Library) I’ve been a fan and supporter of its features, mainly ArrayObject, ArrayIterator and DirectoryIterator. I knew they were not as efficient as the standard “old school” way, but I thought that the standardized interface would outweigh the small (or so I thought) performance hit they would take. Then one day at an interview I had they questioned my use of these and in turn, made myself really question the use of them. So I went home and did some micro benchmarking to prove to myself and anybody else that it was not that much slower.
Well, we launched the wargames last night.
Got off to a weird start because of a bottleneck I caused. THe issue has been Fixed.

Tune in for me making a fool of myself :)
I had no idea were to put this but i thought it would be a good post to help anyone who has ever tried to triple boot.
Reason for writing this is i have been trying to triple boot Ubuntu,BackTrack3,and Gentoo and have made many stupid mistakes.Just thought id share with you how i pulled it off.
For this tutorial i will use the same 3 distros.
This tutorial assumes that you are installing to a formated hard drive.
First things first get the iso's.
Gentoo2008 = www.gentoo.org
Ubuntu*.* = www.ubuntu.com
BackTrack3 = www.remote-exploit.org
Of my family of 5 (me-wife-3kids), 4 of our birthdays fall right in the zone of defcon.
Because of this, my wife and I have a major argument planned every year after which all my base ends up belonging to her.
This has provoked me to the development of a list of rules that if followed, can save you from the bitter pains with which I myself have been inflicted.
The rules that lead to a happy defcon.
1. Never date anyone who was born in the beginning of Aug
2. Live a celibate life between Oct 1 and Nov 30 of each year
3. Never eat mushrooms you find in Mexico
This is my first of hopefully many articles on Hack3r.com.
I want to talk about a RISC architecture that has become one of my biggest hobbies lately, the ARM architecture.
ARM Ltd makes RISC Processors for embedded systems, and has become increasingly popular in todays consumer electronics. It's so widespread that you probably own one yourself. The GP2X console and Nintendo's GBA comes to mind, as well as a lot of cellular phones. With this in mind, let's start some hacking!
So who is going? Who may go? Who is staying with the crazy H3C group?
So far, I have reserved a room...and Ocyrus is planning on joining. Anyone else?
So, after a long discussion with multiple people I decided to stop development on the initial site code and switch to drupal.
Any bugs or Interface fixes please posts to bugs.
Also, if you are going to post a bug, please try and provide a solution.
Thanks!
and enjoy.
