Boldly stolen from David Champion at the University of Chicago, and archived for personal reference. All credits to that page. kpartx will scan a block device — e.g., your /dev/loop0 — and create device-mapped specials under /dev/mapper for the partitions. Then you can address individual partitions. (N.B.: When done, before you can losetup -d the […]
I stumbled upon this great tool to set all the relevant registry entries (WTF?) to allow only the cryptographic algorithms that are considered secure to be negotiated with the server.

I recently did some mechanical work on an Aeon Cobra 50cc (AT70 in the registration) and spent a few evenings looking up information about it. The Aeon Cobra 50cc is sold in several Nordic countries as the GOES 50s. […]
To avoid holding up everything else when deleting massive amounts of data from an SQL Server table, you can use the TOP() function to delete the data in chunks. SELECT 1 WHILE @@ROWCOUNT > 0 BEGIN DELETE TOP(1000) FROM [dbo].[mytable] WHERE timestampUtc < ‘2015-05-29’ END The “SELECT 1” primes the @@ROWCOUNT variable, so the while […]
