Workers’ Compensation Dreamin’

It’s all too often that I am unable to sleep, sometimes for days on end. There are only two days left of 2006. This time in my state of being awake, and looking at my logs for referrers I’ve come across some more interesting stuff to process. The lack of required mental [...]

lame xss hack attempt.

I just happened to catch this in my logs. It almost seems like they thought I was using Tucows blogware hosting. Hmm. But I use wordpress. Ohwell, it’s Christmas, I’m bored as fuck, so here is the nitty gritty that I can figure out.

714 splits again!

(No, I don’t mean EFnet.)
Damn all you Orange County California mofo’s and your attachment to having a phone number for every gadget in your pocket, the 2+ phone lines at home, fax machine, and even one for your DSL line. Already a lack of phone numbers only ~10 years after the last [...]

Google Health

[mood] I’m pissed off.[/mood]
In today’s Google blog post, Google VP, Adam Bosworth touches on something I have been fighting with.
The system didn’t fail completely, but struggled with these phases:
* What was wrong — it took her doctors nine months to correctly identify an illness which had classic symptoms

freeform (un)friends ranting

I’ve been tired of a friendship for quite some time. It’s been a while, so writing about it again seemed like a good productive idea.
Damn this is a long post.

I have only one phone number, my mobile phone, and it’s been listed in the Do Not Call Registry for a while.  I just verified it. Register yours.

Your phone number with the last four digits XXXX was registered in the National Do [...]

internet rant.

As is the seperation of church and state, so should it be with the service from the pipe.  Evil things happen when those who control everything attempt to limit and filter what we should be able to perform.
All cities/towns/municipalities should push for a buy out plan of the cable companies, and telco operations within their [...]

power supply woes.

So yea, my server has been down effectively since Saturday.  This means that my blog/website has been offline.
Well, last weekend the power supply in my server decided to get really hot and die.  On Sunday, I replaced it with one from another computer, and it met an untimely hot death also.  So Monday I ordered [...]

You Boob!

After reading Cringley’s article this week, I finally decided to remove my videos from YouTube. Sure I’ll watch videos on there, but no more content will be submitted by me.
“Here are the exact words of the new YouTube license:
“…by submitting the User Submissions to YouTube, you hereby grant YouTube a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicenseable [...]

Sleep anyone? Not me. Callbacks? Yea, like anyone ever does that around here.

Well another night has passed, and I am not rested, nor did I actualy sleep much at all. I spent the last 10 hours trying to sleep, but instead I was tossing and rolling over, and trying to find that comfortable spot, hoping it would allow me to relax enough to sleep, but every [...]
