A new security problem

If you take computer security with regard, you may want to epoxy the firewire connections on your windows boxes closed. Apparently, there is a nice little hack available running linux on another computer computer and hooking up to a windows box, yes your password can easily be bypassed, Apparently it has been shown to work on Apple boxes too, so it looks as if it is a memory access problem with firewire's code.

Also, here is a very good video on net neutrality, I would suggest everyone watch it and understand what will happen if corporations are allowed to own the net.

Things that are new and interesting

A new site called Open Source Living has been created, providing a great place to get open source software in a more cognative manner, check it out.

In other news, Asus has developed a super LCD, watch them try to put a crossbow through it. I think I may need a new LCD soon..

Finally, Here is something that is just cool, a place where you kind find out what happened on any given day.

That is all for now, I hope everyone is enjoying their holiday season!
