The ANSI scene was HUGE. ACID, CIA, i could go on. Wonder where people like Trident(CIA?) and Beastie(ACID) are these days... Trident ran Muerte, Beastie ran Channel Zer0 out of Texas.
Actually, Channel Zer0 BBS was the ACiD western headquarters and operated out of Orange County, California. Beastie is now an executive at major storage and digital imaging corporation. I cannot personally speak for Trident, but Napalm, the last person to lead CIA, is a graphics designer for a large cable television network and creates his own tshirts and toys under the brand names Dead Zebra and Creatures in my Head.
Recon 2005, a "reverse engineering and exploit development" con, takes place this June in Montreal, Quebec. It looks quite interesting, but conflicts with my attendance at the upcoming deviantART summit in Santa Monica, California.
The Lafayette man said he accomplished the trickery by taking 12 "base" photographs of the house with lights on and off and then constructed a Web page that appeared to show lights going on and off when the Web visitor clicked, but after performing web server stress testing, he replaced the test images with real-time camera generated images for the holiday season.

Personally I wasn't too impressed with the site to begin with, hoax or not. It didn't hold a candle to the likes of the Chaos Computer Club'sBlinkenlights project.
Close your eyes for 30 seconds and try to think of absolutely nothing (no pictures, no sounds, no memories, and btw thinking "empty mind, relax, think nothing..nothing.." is still thinking. So 99.99% of you will fail this miserably- I guarantee it.
Pilgrimage 2004 will be hosting a classic computer museum featuring demos running on original C64 and Amiga hardware (amongst several other oldschool machines), so an emulator should not be necessary.:-)
There are a great number of interesting underground talk radio shows which have sprung up as of late, many of which deal with network security, computer programming, software piracy, individual privacy issues, etc.
POPfile has been working quite impressively with a very high success ratio. That is, until just recently (last week) -- there has been this severe influx of German spam lately and it's only nabbing about 50% of them. That's half of between 400-900 messages a day.:-Z
I've found GMail's filtering to be highly effective so far. I haven't received a single message yet.
No, but seriously... I've used my gmail account for posting on Usenet newsgroups even and initially there was minor training to be done with the SPAM filter, and ever since then I have had to see a single UCE.

It must be true, I read it on Wikipedia.

From Mike Tyson's Punch Out:
:)
Garret: "Mike Tyson" is bad publicity for this game.
Parker: Nothing is bad publicity.
Garret: Maybe Mr. T is Nintendo's marketing director. Mike Tyson was all like, "I'm gonna eat your dogs; I'm gonna eat your kids...."
You're right. There's no way I could make up shit that good either, but no doubt the editors at Ziff Davis can.
I wouldn't say that. Amazon takes a cut to the tune of ~ 55 percent from their Advantage program "partners". Thats one huge markup.

So tell me, does this judge have a daughter?
Baud is not an acronym. iirc
That is correct, baud is named after the inventor of Baudot Code, Émile Baudot.
Tying into the underlying BBS theme this year, VCF will be hosting the first and only public screening of the long anticipated BBS Documentary which is due out on DVD late this year.
The MPAA makes baseless threats and false claims of "infringement" all the time.
It's nothing new.

Just... too... easy -- Must... resist...

Yes, there will be. Your article is officially overdue. :-)
HOPE is boasting quite an impressive lineup of folks this year. I hope they offer videos again for the folks who can't make it.
Now wait a second! ...When did they upgrade from FoxPro?
I'm here to warn you of the dangers that lie ahead for Y10K.
There are a great number of interesting underground talk radio shows which have sprung up as of late, many of which deal with network security, computer programming, software piracy, individual privacy issues, etc.
I recommend the following shows:
The ARTS: Artscene Radio Talk Show - show archive
BinRev: Binary Revolution - show archive
RFA: Radio Freek America - show archive
and of course we can't forget Emmanuel Goldstein's Off the Hook which has shows dating back to 1988:
2600's Off the Hook - show archive
TEXTFILES.COM also stores a huge library of other radio shows and rants at its newly branded AUDIO.TEXTFILES.COM.

I'm holding out for the JCB creditcard hand and forehead.
Err -- "thing", too.
Damn, that think is more pimperish than a stick of licorice.
