Well now, we always knew they'd come from space right?

Oh Noooooooes, Zombie satellite attack!

Just a friendly reminder that we should, on this day of thanks giving, give thanks to whatever god or gods you may have that your ass isn't over there. And if it is, I pray for you.

Have I told you today that there is a war killing people in Iraq as well?

Ok, this is an interesting concept, cheap (currently free) supercomputer usage. Just reserve your time/processes and upload your progs. I am sure it could be used for some nefarious projects but I would be loathe to suggest that.

Not enough umph in your little pc?

Just in case we get sidetracked with Britney our youtube or both I thought I might mention that there are, at this very moment, people dying of war.

Have I mentioned today that we have human beings dying in iraq?

Just in case someone forgets. More old news but good news. Remember 1984 is just around the corner.

Have I told you today that we have soldiers dying overseas?

This is old news I know, but my question is, as a service provider are they allowed MIM attacks like this (am I misreading this, isn't that what masquerading as the other computer your talking to and sending false data is?).

I know this is old, but isn't this illegal?

Just in case someone has forgotten...

Here is a good example of why I don't like Ron Paul and why I think Ron Paul is anti-immigration.

He has sponsored a bill this year called "Social Security for Americans Only Act of 2007." It prevents any wages earned by people who are not American Citizens after the end of this year from being included in any calculation of any future social security payments made to them. It has two primary impacts on immigrants:

1. Taxes that immigrants pay into the social security system before they become citizens, such as while they are living in the United States on visas, or green cards, are essentially forfeited. The US Government takes that money but does not pay any benefit on it.

2. The US has reciprocity agreements with a number of countries so that people who live some of their life in one country and some of their life in another country can access social security upon retirement based on their payments into both programs. This rule would end those agreements for everyone except people like me who have been dual citizens from a young age.

My father lived about a third of his working life in Canada, a third as a US immigrant on visas, and a third of his working life in the US as a citizen. We could not have immigrated to the United States if such a rule were in place in the 1980's, as the financial impact on his ability to retire would have been prohibitive. If such a rule is made retroactive, as many in this movement would like to see, it will have a huge financial impact on my family, because my mother's future social security earnings will be substantially reduced. It may result in her moving back to Canada.

This isn't anti-illegal immigration. It is anti-immigration. It is not fueled by genuine fiscal libertarianism or any concept of fairness, as it involves taking taxes from people without offering benefits and marooning American Citizens who live abroad by undercutting reciprocity agreements. Its fueled by the "blame the Mexicans" xenophobic scapegoating that became popular just as soon as people realized that there wasn't going to be an emotionally fulfilling military victory in Iraq.

I will not support this. This hurts me and my family.

It seems NVidia's GeForce 8800 graphics card isn't just for gamers. According to this article a password recovery company has figured out a way to push some of the processing off to the 8800 and increase the speed of brute force cracks by a signifigant amount.
