I bought a RC Helicopter and I'm just wondering that it's possible to be reprogrammed or not?
If can how to do that? I know this question sounds ridiculous. :)
Thanks for replying

What do you mean reprogrammed?
If you want to make the remote control a light instead of a motor, the answer is yes. If you mean add any intelligence to the toy, the answer is no.
If you are interested in programming, building robots etc, look into microcontrollers. The Arduino is a great one for young enthusiasts.

Some parts of the RC helicopter you can reprogrammed like the ESC, and the main circuit board always can't reprogrammed. Of course, there was exception, for some beta version, most of the board you can reprogrammed in limitted range

Since ~1999 everyone has been saying that TCP/IP v6 will replace v4 within then next couple of years. When might the change actually happen and what will be the implications?
No one can answer that question.
Valid answers may be anything from "any day now" to "never". What do you expect people to say?
IpV6 is actually gaining pretty good traction if you bother to take a look at Googles graphs and the number of AAAA hosts being published in the global DNS. And all mainstream operating systems (Windows, OS X, Linux, FreeBSD) support it out-of-the-box.
What more do you want? You cannot get any guarantees or (realistic) promises.

First of all, this is obviously for learning porpoises only. Don't be afraid to answer.
So anyway, is there a way for a man to hack a computer logging in, for example, to a garry's mod server hosted on my PC?
If there is, I am very interested on how this is working. Explanations will be welcome.
In general terms, yes, it's possible. Game clients receive data from their servers, which they expect to be in a particular format. If the server is modified to send mis-formatted data, the result could easily be to trigger a buffer overflow or other exploitable bug in the client.
See for example http://threatpost.com/researchers-discover-dozens-of-gaming-client-and-server-vulnerabilities/100744
Not sure about your locale, but most countries have a similar law to the UK's Computer Misuse Act. Which pretty much means 'hacking back' is illegal.
If you want to learn about exploits, and how to use them ethically - www.google.com is the place to start, try looking for 'ethical hacking course'

Does anyone know how to programmatically obtain TV listings for a particular time zone? Is there a service I can subscribe to?
Thanks.
Searching for TV Listings API has a lot of promising results, but I don't think you're going to find any free ones, for better or worse.
Check your cable provider or try to scrape off their sites?
As far as I searched, the only viable solution I've found is this one :
http://services.tvrage.com/
They provide a public API that is quite complete and updated regularly, but it's not timezone dependant.
I'm afraid that what you are asking is too specific.
Maybe you should create it yourself ? ;)
You could contact the team behind Zapping.io. They have an API for the television programming with metadata (actors, plot, posters and ratings)

Can anybody tell me about 'profiling' in unix by giving a small example.
Thank you!
You'll need to give us some more context if you want a useful answer. Broadly speaking, profiling a program is to instrument the executable with some extra statements that record details of execution which you can later analyse to identify parts that are slow, consume too much memory, consume too much CPU etc. Here's a quickie along with examples on how to use gprof which is the GNU profiler for C. http://www.cs.utah.edu/dept/old/texinfo/as/gprof.html#SEC2
If you want to shine in your exam about profiling, talk about Dtrace.

My software is a video-audio converter and video cutter. I have used Qt(compiled from source) and ffmpeg (compiled from source). I have to prepare System Usage Specification outline and Specify Usage patterns of the system and indicate it using Run charts / Histograms. I am told to use Winrunner for this purpose. I don't know exactly what to do. Please help.
I never heard about 'System Usage Specification', this must be a terminology specific to your company.
A wild guess would be that it's something close to the Use Case diagram of UML, to define what the users can do and which action they have to perform to lead them to the expected result.
Sounds like a uggly word for "handbook" or "usage guide" from the pov of a end-user (though I never heared of that specific term)
