Nothing to see here.

OpenDNS Saves yet another customer.

So I was helping a customer hook up their Internet service from comcrash.  The had their modem, and i was there to set up the computer and hook it all up to the Internet.  So first thing first…  the new laptop, one easiest to get online was running SLED.  So…  yea, we where not looking [...]

Cross Site Requests, and you thought Cross Site Scripting was Bad.

Wowsiers, I’m listening in to the latest Security Now 166, about Cross Site requests.
It’s a new vunerability with web applications which have persistant logins.  The basics is that a hacker provides you an html page, and that page has some image requests in it, however those image requests are in reality web addresses which attempts [...]

Why is California Screwing itself?

So California has its own department of technology. Essentially a department funded by other departments in order to consolidate technical resources. Makes sense right? Put all the major technical resources in one place. Easier to manage, easier to expand and implement nifty new technologies. It makes all the sense in the world, but leave it to California to screw it up.

Yet another crash in light room.

So I’ve tried out light room. Processed a few photo gigs with it and I can’t say that i’m impressed.  Yes, it has a few nice features but the beach ball of death really is getting old.  For some reason a bunch of my photos will crash light room when I go from library to [...]

iPhone Update 3… late for work again…

Well not really, but almost.
For quite some time i’ve been reling on a dual alarm, and sometimes a three layer alarm system to wake up.  My primary cell phone, my Mac, and an old cell phone.  A couple months ago, i dismissed the old cell phone, and occassionally I close the lid to my Mac [...]

Black and Decker pocket power incompatable with ipod.

I was out on a road trip, Oh boy first time to use my portable battery pack.  All I need is to bring my usb cord, i can do everything with just the usb cord.  If i don’t need it why bring it right?  So I left the AC converter at home.
I crash for the [...]

McCain’s funny…

“I’d rather let family’s and doctors make the decision than the federal government which is what obama would prefer”
Medicine will still be a free market…  With the fed helping out… the decision go from say not an option to a potential option for most people?  The rest could always say, nah, i’ll pay my self [...]

Holy Instant Spam Batman!

I don’t know about anyone else, but the amount of instant spam has gone up significantly over the last few months.  20 messages in the last 2 weeks, and if i don’t block the sender immediatly i’ll get a number of messages from that bot.
Since Feb, 15 when adium was installed, 290 unique ID’s have [...]

It’s not McCain I’m worried about…

I’ve been telling people for the last couple months, it’s not McCain you have to worry about.  It’s the republican vice president that’ll will really scare us.  Think about it.  He will makes Presidential Regan look young, his medical profile would make any insurance company cringe, and lets face it, the way he acts is [...]

Fun with ComCrastic support

So I was helping a customer hook up their Internet service from comcrash.  The had their modem, and i was there to set up the computer and hook it all up to the Internet.  So first thing first…  the new laptop, one easiest to get online was running SLED.  So…  yea, we wern’t looking good [...]
