Hey, Schteve? Erm... could you just pop in behind
the server, and give the yellow wire a jiggle?



thanks, mate...

Micro$oft just plain give up...

Remember a previous post, where i mentioned how you can easily bypass Micro$ofts "Windows Genuine Advantage"?

Well... they decided to give up....

(Well, the system did get cracked in under 24 hours...)

Miniature UAV's

UAV's (Unmanned Autonomous Vehicles) are all the rage now. You have probably heard of the Predator which has been used in the Iraq war.
It's pretty small, huh?

Not any more...

Imagine a vehicle that can float around in a controlled manner, has an onboard Intel CPU, and can transmit video and sound up to 2000 meters away. Ok... now imagine it being the size of a dandelion seed... roughly 1000 micrometres.


Want something smaller?

Imagine a microphone that is so small, it can be implanted into a mosquitoe's proboscis, and when it bites a host, the microphone is mbedded into it. It uses the bodie's natural electrical impulses to transmit sound...


Pretty creepy...

And considering these details were recently released to the public, you can expect that the classified devices are roughly 25 times smaller...


For a full review of these and other UAV's visit this SITE

Unisol a reality?

I'm sure you guys have watched the movie "Universal Soldier" (Unisol), with Jean-Claude Van Damme and Dolph Lundgren. Basicaly about creating super-soldiers.

Well... it's not actually that far-fetched.

The Daily Show: September 7, 2005

Tonight's episode starts off with coverage on crisis management in a new segment called "Meet the F**kers" (go ahead and guess what that word is supposed to be).



The first F**ker is Michael Brown, director of FEMA. He was elected for this position in 2003 and is expected to start his job any day now... any day now.

Wish we didnt get these episodes like, 1 month late...

Hack your Netgear

This site is dedicated to the Netgear DG834(G) switch/firewall/modem/router series and its hacking.
Although the DG834(G) seems to be a great product, the quality and stability as well as the options and functions provided by the official Netgear firmwares appear to be insufficient for a good part of its users.


Therefore, these guys decided to have a look into the box, trying to put enough information together to be able to correct some of those issues. (Cheaply...)

What music do I like?

People always ask me this...

And my answer is always the same:

I like anything but RAP.

It's one C away from being CRAP:


Da Arijinal Vershin: "Befo’ I came up in the game these hoes didn’t show no loveThey see me in the club and used to treat me like a scrubThey wouldn’t holla cause my dollars wasn’t swoll enoughI bet they change they mind when them 80 4’s come rollin up"

The Translated version: "Before I became a star in the music industry women weren’t really that interested in me. They would see me in nightclubs and treat me like a loser. They wouldn’t talk to me because I didn’t make enough money. I bet they’ll change their minds when they see me driving around town in my car with expensive, fancy rims."

There Arno cartoonists like Arno anymore

Peter Arno (1904-1968) was a single panel cartoonist. Some of these cartoons are... not of this era..
