Slackware 13.0 Released

Friday, August 28th, 2009

Slackware 13.0 is finally released

After one of the most intensive periods of development in Slackware’s history, the long awaited stable release of Slackware 13.0 is ready. This release brings with it many major changes since Slackware 12.2, including a completely reworked collection of X packages (a configuration file for X is no longer needed in most cases), major upgrades to the desktop environments (KDE version 4.2.4 and Xfce version 4.6.1), a new .txz package format with much better compression, and other upgrades all around — to the development system, network services, libraries, and major applications like Firefox and Thunderbird. We think you’ll agree that this version of Slackware was worth the wait. Also, this is the first release of Slackware with native support for the 64-bit x86_64 architecture.

I’m changing.

Tuesday, July 21st, 2009

Well, I remember the years of black-hat hacking, irc, fud tools, 0-day, priv8, malicious coding, virus writing, defacing, rooting, owning. Yes a time, I was so. But now, then a lot of time, I’m a white,a person who likes to help and share security.
I’m not affascinated, as an old time, of owning and black-hat hacking. I prefer create.
Ok, for me knowledge must be earned, but at the end, security is for all, and insecurity not.
I’m starting Sealckers.org with doubts and uncertainties, today I received two emails by a very big person (in mind and character), and I decided to commit and to make great this site and press.
It’s the time to become a man, a security man hope.
Thank you.
