Thanks to Tinfoil Sheep for sending this my way.

What happens when you steal the wifi of someone skilled in ipchains, networking, DHCP and perl?

You get your world turned upside down.

This is so freaking clever I laughed out loud. The guy redirects all the traffic from the wifi thief through a proxy server that (using the magic of perl) turns all the images upside down!

After the dotcom doldrums of the past five years, there is a new wind blowing through the world of commercial software. It’s open source, but not as we know it.

I remember having to open the case and check the chipset used in my internal dial-up winmodem to get it to work in Linux. And I am happy

I get a lot of mail. No, I get a $h1tload of mail. I have excellent spam filtering at my server and on my trusty mail.app mail client. Yet, I still get my fair share of spam.

I know what you’re all thinking… “Chief, why don’t you just go to a grey-listing mail service… then only the people you authorize can mail you!”. Well, you’re all right. I’m lazy and I haven’t gotten there yet – even though a few good friends of mine have written an amazing (and yet unpublished) grey-listing mail
