Return of the Suckage
George Lucas is describing the forthcoming finale to his Star Wars series as “Titanic in space.” Oh boy.. Obviously, fans would love to see a movie about Darth Vader running around killing people. I’m not telling that story, and I’m not interested in that. That’s not what the movie is. What an asshat. The one Read more about Return of the Suckage[…]

Yahoo Buzz Game
Google isn’t the only player to experiment – Yahoo has its own public research page. The Tech Buzz Game is a very interesting fantasy prediction market for high-tech products, concepts, and trends. In the Web Application Frameworks market, I’m betting on Rails.
Human extinction
What’s it going to be? Asteroid impact, World War III, Global Warming, Global Dimming, Biowarfare or is it just a minor die off post Global Peak Oil? Consider Voluntary Human Extinction as a more humane alternative.

Blackholes ‘n fireballs, my favorite combo
The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) in New York apparently creates fireballs (whee!) that have the characteristics of a Black Hole, with particles disappearing into the fireball’s core and reappearing as thermal radiation. Funky. I’ll take two to go. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/4357613.stm
BarbieOS
“If Barbie were a career-focused woman working in the IT industry in 2003, she would support open standards,” he says. “She would be seeking out free and open-source alternatives to current proprietary solutions, saving her company tens of thousands of dollars on management headaches associated with tracking software licenses and preparing for BSA audits. She Read more about BarbieOS[…]
Big Fuggin’ Radio Gun
Not sure how I’d feel if someone pointed one of these at me. It looks marginally less threatening than last year’s Schmoo Sniper Yagi. (Bluetooth + WiFi remote access)
BluejackQ
There’s a page dedicated to hijacking your mobile phone via Bluetooth. Appropriately enough, it’s called BluejackQ. Linkie: http://www.bluejackq.com/index.shtml
What The Hack
What The Hack finally has information on the webpage. What The Hack is an outdoor hacker conference/event taking place on a large event-campground in the south of The Netherlands from 28 until 31 July 2005. I’m there, you’re there, anyone not there is just t3h suxx0r.
Spectacular bankruptcy
I wonder if all the people who voted for Dubya are still going to like him when they’re back to tilling the soil in 2010.. THE NUMBERS are staggering — a US$43-trillion hole in America’s public finances that’s getting worse every day. And the stakes are almost inconceivable for a generation of politicians and voters Read more about Spectacular bankruptcy[…]
Windows 2003 and XP vulnerable to LAND DoS attack
LAND attack: Sending TCP packet with SYN flag set, source and destination IP address and source and destination port as of destination machine, results in 15-30 seconds DoS condition. Which is funny. The last time the LAND attack was seen was about 8 years ago. It’s a trivial remote DoS and you’d think that even Read more about Windows 2003 and XP vulnerable to LAND DoS attack[…]
Cell architecture explained
Sony, Toshiba and IBM have been quietly developing a new vector-based processing architecture which promises to trash anything Intel and AMD have up their sleeves. This guy has read the patent applications and makes some predictions on what we’re going to be seeing in the PS3. http://www.blachford.info/computer/Cells/Cell0.html If this is too hard, then Penny Arcade Read more about Cell architecture explained[…]
Nine drawings on acid
An artist draws a face during various stages of an LSD trip. http://www.cowboybooks.com.au/html/acidtrip1.html
This shouldn’t be much of a shocker..
.. but I’m guessing it is. I mean, it made me go wtf and I’m fairly cynical to start off with. Most of the stuff you see in media is fake. That definitely includes things like bikini models. There are zooms tabs on the left. Don’t skip those.
