Ambient Devices' Weather Beacon
08/04/2004 09:57 AM
It might feel like a slow
news day when I write about a company that makes glowing spheres
coming out with a glowing box, but lo! It is not. In fact, ignoring
the fact that you are paying $180 for a fancy light, the Ambient
Weather Forecast Beacon is actually quite slick; the light inside
moves from white the red through a rainbow of different shades, each
one corresponding to the temperature in your area -- the same colors
that TV meteorologists use on the weather maps. Ambient broadcasts a
radio signal to the device so that it can work anywhere for free, or
you can upgrade for a monthly subscription to receive color notices
about stock portfolio changes, news (Flash red for Gay Marriage Vote
Results; seriously, you could do that), or even (god forbid) terrorist
threat levels.
And as an aside, if you don't want to shell out the cash for the
device, there are a variety of software-based options that will do
similar thing (Konfabulator on OSX, for instance), but you won't get
the spiffy lamp. And that's half of what makes this cool, really.

Last Hope

I've always thought the name of this bar is perfect for a refuge of
last resort. The plywood and the dumpster, which is conveniently
located in front for easy disposal of those whose last hope expires,
lend it a certain something extra and I hope they keep them there even
after the construction on the building is completed. :)
Over the past week I started noticing that there were an awful lot of
idiots linking back to images in my archives. One guy was using a
photo of mine for the background for his webpage. I mean, sure,
it's nice to know someone likes my photos, but should I have to become
a content provider for random bizarre web pages and blogs to know
that? In fact, 2 blogs liked the same photo, a Christmas star, and
both of them were in Arabic which I thought was a little curious and
idly wondered if they were related somehow and if they had both
inherited the same stupid gene. Fark users like my political anti-bush
pics and some churchy types on a jesus bulletin board liked a cross
from Effingham for their avatars [Hey! Jesus doesn't approve of
bandwidth theft in his flock you morons! There is evil in my
domain name, too. Maybe the bible needs to be updated for the digital
age.].
I first tried the subtle approach by replacing the images with an
image of a hot tub full of naked, fat white guys brandishing a shotgun
bearing the message, 'image linking verboten'. It would seem that the
churchy folk unlinked rather quickly and are probably already leeching
their new avatar from some other unsuspecting victim. The picture of
the Effingham [F-ingham to the locals. Oh, the irony!] cross was so
popular that I think the christians might be either stupid or terribly
cheap [or both] when it comes to buying space on the web for their
homepages since it seems that so few of them are willing to host a
tiny 25kb image on their own site. Instead they prefer to let someone
else pay for hosting their content. I wonder if I should write to the
Pope and see if I can get in the queue for some kind of divine
blessing for hosting this stuff for those whom Jesus hasn't given
either clue or cash enough to provide for themselves. Maybe the new
mission of the 21st Century is to go online without having to pay for
anything!
The most galling offender was a cheeky asshole who liked one of
my bitter candy valentine hearts and who, after I moved/replaced it,
came looking for it and linked to the moved file instead. So, as a
last resort, I've just gone ahead and used mod_rewrite to punt
everyone, including google's image search, who try and link to images.
I'll make exceptions, but the idiots who inline the background for
their homepage from another host that isn't theirs just need a boot to
the head and possibly something more gratifyingly visceral. I'm sure
that this is very common around the net, but why do people do it so
shamelessly and why are there so few sites who seem to know how to
punt them and who indulge them? It ranks right up there with spam in
terms of stealing bandwidth, rudeness and outright stupidity.

AT&T CEO Dave Dorman -- for my money, one of the two best
CEOs in telecom -- tells the
Bos
ton Globe what he thinks about VOIP:
"I often wonder if AT&T had gotten out of the blocks sooner with
WorldNet,
how many dial-up Internet subscribers could we have had? Part of that
was a lack
of recognition on the part of AT&T management at the time - not to
be too
critical - about how big this was going to be. I don't suffer
from any of those things with respect to voice over IP. I
think it's going to be huge. I think it's going to be pervasive. We
are going to
be leaders here."

Abu Ghraib pictures. He said, "You haven't begun to see evil..." then
trailed off. He said, "horrible things done to children of women
prisoners, as the cameras run." But I'm afraid the we are far from the
bottom of this pit. When will the American people rise up and throw
out this government that has taken America so far away from its core
values? November isn't soon enough....
