Goatse Pumpkin. Be creative this year!

Goatse Pumpkin (nws duh)

If you play certain games, they can emit certain signals. Doom 3 is supposed to do something like that. check out the site

Here is another interesting article on the subject, courtesy of Wired.

Or even libcaca for color ASCII goodness! ;)

Can be found here.

Does not beat DWTFYW license (my fave):

(Pioneered by WindowMaker?)

Reminds me of libcaca.

An ascii art library with colors and whatever else, sprites, primitives, etc.

You can use it with MPlayer or your video player of choice, looks much better with colors.

A similar article can be found here.

And the goatse.cx site was suspended. It's not there anymore.

So I guess we'll have to raise the money to replace it, eh?

That won't be necessary. Apparently the site was suspended without warning on January 14, 2004, but not without protest. Some thought the ".cx" top-level domain name was recieving a bad reputation. However this hasn't stopped the site reappearing under different domain names- for example, one excluding the "se" and another substituting the ".ca" TLD for ".cx". So it is still there, to the horror of unnwitting first-time viewers everywhere. It has also spawned a whole series of parodies and tributes. There is a Wikipedia article about it, with more information than you ever wanted to know on the topic.

You asked for it, you got it. This guy bottomed out at three feet.

A mirror of the article can be found here.

But do a fresh install with SP2 slipstreamed into your WinXP install disk to ensure success.

Upgrades have been nothing but a royal PITA (working link to goatse guy)...

Last Measure is a better site than that guy's anyway.

Whoops, bad link. RIP partycat. here is a different mirror, but not a very fast one.

I read about this yesterday, on my friend's Half-Life 2 blog that Valve were considering using this technology to advertise HL2. I suppose they'll have to do SOMETHING to boost sales now with last week's very disappointing news on the engine change...

I can't blame them for banning The Giver.

WTF?

I always thought The Giver was a great book!

You mean goatse?

I think it's a hands-on instructional session.

oh yeah (beware, goatse ahead =)

God will smite you for daring to defy Debian, heathen!

With my sketching abilities I'd probably have a wealth of pictures in the genre of:

• various forms of penile-nasal insertion
• lesbian ear lobe on ear lobe action
• sexual situations with diamondbacks replacing the penis

God you're dumb. If your brain is anywhere, it's here.

No, but here's what God has to say about slackware, you Debian-hating infidel: thus spake GOD to the Debian Infidels

...wait for it...




not dying!

no, YOU suck it, bitch fuck the racist GNAA.

Spam can't possibly be as funny as this

However _where_ is the linux-2.4.24-mremap.patch to be found?

I extracted it from the 2.4.25 patch: mremap-patch.diff

I found the real imagery dataset here!

libcaca is your friend. :)

Actually... Thanks to libshit... Ooops, libcaca, it is now possible to mirror images as text -- coloured text. Unfortunately, /. doesn't do coloured HTML text..

would be fun if one could download torrents from riaa, mpaa and whatever those ....... are called

This has been used to distribute the DeCSS source. Check out #9 here . I love the fact that the DVDCCA naveserver has the data.

There is an improved version for Bind 8.3, 8.4 and 9.2 here. .

those Verisign dickheads

It allows you to add IP addresses for wildcard smashing in named.conf and gives examples of some of the other wildcarded TLD's out there.

Here is my solution that does not hardcode the IPs but reads them in named.conf, which is a bit nicer.

Argh, WinZip couldn't open that gzipped tar file. Cripes!

But Marc Zwillinger, the chief litigator in DirecTV's war on piracy, says Ump25's posts aren't much different from posting a DVD descrambling program to the Internet, which has been ruled illegal in the past.

For correct info, read the DVD Subtitle document written by an author of Videolan.

A quick summary of the Saturn microprocessor, for those interested...

The Saturn processor is a propietary HP chip used in many of its calculators. It's generally considered a 4 bit chip (since this is the internal data bus size), but it has four 64-bit registers. I think the coolest part of the chip is that each instruction can operate on various portions of these registers -- for example, only the upper nibble, or only the lowest 4 nibbles. Since this is a calculator, math is generally done in BCD format. Externally, the chip connects using an 8-bit data bus. The address bus width (and therefore the PC, too) is 20 bits wide, and each address refers to a nibble of data. Maximum addressable memory = 1 meganibbles = 512KB. Most of the calculator firmware (such as calculating the sine of a number or matrix manipulation) is interpreted RPL to allow code reuse code (to save time, and to ensure bug-free implementations)

HP did a great job with this calculator, including releasing internal documenation and development tools. More info here, or use google.

It's a shame that HP shut down thier calculator division.

So, are we allowed to Transcribe the source code for DeCSS on the chalkboard?

I saw Antitrust yesterday and of course I went to check out skullbocks.com, skullbocks.net, and skullbocks.org when I got home. It looks like MGM hasn't thought of a good idea for what to host there. (At the time of this posting they have a generic "under construction" page posted at all sites)

Then I had an idea... I wondered what would happen if somebody like Jon Katz posted an open email to MGM with some of the following ideas:

• Use the skullbocks.* sites to promote open source by open sourcing the code to be used behind their "Innovative Digital Media Distribution Website".
• Take some proceeds from ticket sales from Antitrust and donate some to EFF to help support the DVD Case.
• Take some proceeds from ticket sales from Antitrust and donate some to Project Mayo (DivX).
• Post the source code to DeCSS on the skullbocks.* sites.
• Create and seed fund the cerebellum-project. The cerebellum-project would be an open source project to build a server to archive and search digital video. A joint search engine and archive. MGM should also seed the archive by releasing old movies under some audio/video GPL.

Just an open idea. What else can you think to add?

thanx, chaim

Talking about the French censorship, it seems to me that France is one of the country which didn't decide that DeCss was outlaw.

Maybe this is some censorship then... :p
