Flak Monkey Lan Party

Alas, I have been bested once again in combat by Steve, whose skills with the flak cannon are indeed admirable. Steve won the UT2K4 tournament and got the prize of a dead laptop and a hammer.

Pictures are up here.

NetStumbler 0.4.0

Heres for all you wardrivers:

A new version of the popular wireless network discovery tool NetStumbler was released today. Updates include support for more wireless cards, ip address reporting, new scripting features, and several bug fixes. This is the first new release since late August of 2002, over a year and a half ago. A new version of the handheld version, MiniStumbler, is also available for download.

Administration to launch War on Pr0n

(from the Baltimore Sun)

“Lam Nguyens job is to sit for hours in a chilly, quiet room devoid of any color but gray and look at pornography” Ok, now how many of you just stopped right there and said “Damn, I want that job!” Sure, porn 8 hours a day, with government benefits would be nice…

But Nguyens job is to hunt down the hardcore porn that could be prosecuted under various federal laws. That means that youd be looking at extreme anal insertions, scat/urine fetishes, and amateur Goatse attempts. Just got a whole lot less interesting, huh? (Why am I getting so many more hits now)

No wonder that “the obscenity division has recently set up in-house counseling for them to talk about what theyre seeing and how it is affecting them”.
