Did you know that pidgeons eat puke? It’s true. I saw it. Another good reason not to trust them bastards.

Sony implementing rootkittens on music discs
Rootkittens that hide files, directories and Registry keys can either execute in user mode by patching Windows APIs in each process that applications use to access those objects, or in kernel mode by intercepting the associated kernel-mode APIs. Apparently, it’s a measure against entertainment piracy. Ho-hum. Do you have a pussy? Try Sysinternals freeware rootkitten […]
Back to 1984, people
As some of you know, I’ve kept a keen eye on the internet censoring in East Asia, but now it is time to look at Europe too: It has now become urgent to adopt harmonised provisions at EU level on this subject. A certain number of Member States have adopted, or plan to adopt, national […]
Recent news from Norway
When I listened to the radio this morning, I heard that Norwegians are the number one victims of internet frauds. While the NRK people were mostly interested in showing off all the new words they’d learned (scams, phishing etc.) I was struck by the thought that one of the best IT nations in the world […]
Scariest picture of the day: Leo Sayer
Nuff said.
Link of the day: Killer Squirrels (for real!)
Passers-by were too late to stop the attack by the black squirrels in a village in the far east, which reportedly lasted about a minute. They are said to have scampered off at the sight of humans, some carrying pieces of flesh. A pine cone shortage may have led the squirrels to seek other food […]
A priori lunch
Man, these hours before lunch are limbo. I’m too hungry to do proper work and I can’t eat ’cause then I’d have to work when I usually have lunch. As Antony in Shakespeare’s play says: I am dying, Egypt, dying: Give me some wine, and let me speak a little. . . The miserable change […]
Time for the Christmas cleaning, folks!
So, it’s closing in on Christmas, at least that’s what I hear, so I reckon it’s about time to do my Christmas cleaning. Actually, it’s about time to do my August cleaning too. And September and October and November. Don’t tell anyone. I don’t want everybody to know what a pig I am. A friend […]
Four out of four concluded. The verdict: Fucksocks!
Christ. I was just thrown out of the exam areas, having finished the 4th of four exams these last three months. Phew. Well, *finished* would be kind of wrongly put. I’ve concluded the term, but I didn’t finish this last one. There was simply not enough time. Normall, I’d give a shit. But when you […]
When a child is lost
Last night two months work was deleted due to a power failure. If you’ve ever written something, written something good, you know how it feels. I’ve tried everything, but the document and most of the material is irretrievable. When you write, it’s like bringing up a child. You nurture it, make sure it can stand […]
