Evening Reading
by Steve Gibson, Jul 03, 2001 5:38pm PDTI name today... the most eventful day ever! In an attempt to bring some order to the incredibly hectic crazy day we bring you ER. This ER was cranked out via sweat shops in Canadia by underpaid overworked minors. They usually do the best work so we employed them.
- If you like fast food, dont read this. Thanks to that sick bastard dognose. - Security agents train long and hard for 4-6 weeks in order to reach a pinacle of a career like this. - What will you do if you win the lottery? I'm gonna start up a global meth manufacturing career! - Some interesting programming language benchmarks for you programmer monkeys. Thanks Richard. (fyi, Shack runs c-code, some php, and a tiny bit of perl) - Some dude scored himself a new heart. It's fake though.. some assembly required.Lastly, good luck to Lum The Mad who has quit that silly website business and moved on to real work at Mythic Entertainment. update Jack - HELP! I'm having really nasty hard drive issues. It's the kind where you turn on the computer and one of the hard drives starts clicking like hell. I have some backups, but there's some recent data on there I'd like to get off. Are there any remedies that any of you know of? If you can help, please shoot me a ShackMessage or email. Thanks much!

Yet another example of how James Cameron has not one original idea in his brain. Titanic was a direct lift from this film.
T2 = T1 rehashed
Aliens = Alien rehashed
Of course, that's just my opinion. I could be wrong.

Hitachi has developed a chip that could be woven into paper money to help identify counterfeits and could also have wide ramifications for identification and surveillance technologies. The chip, called Mew, measures just 0.4mm on a side and stores information such as identification and security codes.
What about the following situation, a drug dealer who was just paid to assassinate someone goes to various stores to exchange currency because he knows damn well his identity may not be known, but his cash is being tracked. So as you walk into the store to make an honest purchase you stumble across this currency. Frightening isn't it?

radio.
you gave them all those old time stars
through wars of worlds - invaded by mars
you made 'em laugh - you made 'em cry
you made us feel like we could fly.
so don't become some background noise
a backdrop for the girls and boys
who just don't know and just don't care
and just complain when you're not there
you had your time, you had the power
you've yet to have your finest hour
radio.

we watch the shows - we watch the stars
on videos for hours and hours
we hardly need to use our ears
how music changes through the years.
let's hope you never leave old friend
like all good things on you we depend
so stick around cos we might miss you
when we grow tired of all this visual
you had your time, you had the power
you've yet to have your finest hour
radio - radio.

radio goo goo

Attempting connection to your computer. . .
[..snip..]
Please Note: On highly secure systems this may take up to one minute. . .
Your Internet port 139 does not appear to exist!
One or more ports on this system are operating in FULL STEALTH MODE! Standard Internet behavior requires port connection attempts to be answered with a success or refusal response. Therefore, only an attempt to connect to a nonexistent computer results in no response of either kind. But YOUR computer has DELIBERATELY CHOSEN NOT TO RESPOND (that's very cool!) which represents advanced computer and port stealthing capabilities. A machine configured in this fashion is well hardened to Internet NetBIOS attack and intrusion.
