Well, I’m migrating all our photos on our photoalbum site to Flickr. It will take something like 4 days to complete, but it will be nice to have that whole thing offloaded! This picture was the latest upload when I checked it this morning and it is definitely one of my favorite pics. Jaime cracks…

That’s MY 128-bit key. If someone distributes that around the internet, I have the very same legal right that the AACS-LA group has to prosecute. See http://www.freedom-to-tinker.com/?p=1155 for the info, but basically, that number was used to encrypt a copyrighted work (A haiku) and I was given explicit rights to decrypt the work my the…

Monday Monday
Man do I dislike Mondays, and before you lecture me about it, I know it’s a bad attitude and I’m working on it. It’s not that I HATE my job, it’s just that I like doing nothing so much more. Well, what’s new you ask? Here’s something cool: http://www.desertcombat.com This is a mod (add-on software…
