  1. Re:Storage space on IBM Smart Card OS On A 1MB Smart Card · · Score: 3, Informative

    Think of as a 1M hard drive. The card also has a dinky 8K RAM and 8K ROM. (Note that the press release for the card is a year old.)

    They think it's gold, but they're just a bunch of Fe-cking pyrates!

    In this case, they're obviously panning for gold.

    Just take advantage of all those infected boxes with Swen, Sasser, MyDoom, etc, and build a large distributed net to fill the db. :)

    Was the OS/2 Lan Manager method much different from the Win95 Lan Manager hashing method? There might still be a few OS/2 systems out there ready to be pwn3d!

  7. Re:LM definition on Letters-Only LM Hash Database · · Score: 1

    Did IBM ever remove Lan Manager from OS/2?

    Didn't they also have a problem where if you lit it with a match rather than a lighter, it smelled like a turd?

    Not recorded? You should have created a guestbook file on his desktop so that people could have kept track for him.

    I almost put "hit refresh a few times to make sure of it", as in a few more rounds of ammo, but I figured that would be a bit too thick. :)

    No, I don't have Dawn of the Dead (2004), fsck off and go away!!!

    Oh, sorry! Yesterday I got a dirty DHCP IP address, and all day long there was a continuous stream of Gnutella clones knocking on my port 6346 and asking for part of that movie. I could turn away some of them with a "HTTP/1.1 404" response, but the P2P net kept sending more of them to look for the last piece of that movie. Eventually I gave them a 302 Moved response and told them that the Location was themselves, but I'm not sure if their protocol supports that.

    Silly me, I should have told them that SCO was the best place to look for zombie flicks.

  14. They found prior art on SCO Gives up on Linux Website · · Score: 5, Funny

    when they researched the term sock-puppet. (Mainly the Usenet usage where a kook creates dozens of alternate identities to agree with himself; but usage of a cheap puppet with a hand up its bum works too.)

    They died years ago. Now they're just shambling around like a zombie, causing damage and panic, and looking for brains. So far they haven't found any.

    It looks like it's doing okay. Check it out and hit refresh a few times to make sure.

    What about Puerto Rico, Guam, the US Virgin Islands, etc? Are they left to sit around the beach rather than vote?

    Oh! I thought the story was about Moderating the U.S. Elections Online. Ah well, I doubt Diebold would have given me mod-points tomorrow anyway.

    Some rainy day, I've been meaning to whip up a light local server to return cute cat pictures instead of banner ads. Now that I've done my sound effects for Zone Alarm program, maybe it'll get to the top of my silly program queue.

    How about a pet Tamagotchi-type cookie monster app? When it gets hungry, it would lick a few years off the cookies, or just eat the tracking cookies whole. To keep it happy and fed, you'd have to do a certain amount of browsing, of course...
