Tow Truck Drivers Push Cars into
Tow-Away Zone then hold cars for ransom
03/22/2005 04:59 PMMark Frauenfelder:
Tian says: "On March 7th, I took
photos of a tow truck driver that damages a vehicle then tries
to get away in Phoenix.
Sunday night (March 20th), Phoenix news channel 15 used a bait car
and discovered that local tow truck company(s) would actually push
cars into tow-away zone first, then held the cars as "hostages" for
ransom."
I just watched it. The TV crew set up a white SUV as a bait car,
and parked it legally. Time and time again, tow trucks would push the
car into a red zone, snap a photo, and tow it away. Of course, when
the TV crew showed the owner of the tow truck company how his drivers
had pushed the car into the red lane, the owner denied responsibility.
"I didn't push it," he said.
Arizona lawmakers have been half-heartedly writing legislation to
stop this (isn't it illegal to do this already) but the tow truck has
so far been able to convince them not to ruin the good thing they've
got going.

Spot Draves' presentation of his electric
sheep was one of the best presentations I attended at last
February's O'Reilly Emerging Technology Conference. Electric Sheep is
a screen saver that uses a distributed computing model (a la SETI@home) to create and render new "sheep."
When the screen-saver is activated, the screen goes
black and an animated 'sheep' appears. Behind the scenes, the
screen-saver contacts a server and joins the parallel computation of
new sheep.
Every fifteen minutes 24/7 a new sheep is born and
distributed to all clients for display. Each sheep is an animated
fractal flame.
The sheep are amazingly beautiful, and hearing Spot speak about his
work is great. Lucky for you, if you're in NYC tonight you can
experience it yourself. Spot will be doing his presentation at the dorkbot-nyc gathering. Also there will be a
presentation on "Gameboy Hacks" at the same meeting! It's a geek's
delight! Wednesday, May 5, 7pm at Location
One in SoHo (NYC).

Seeing Through Microsoft's Sheep

04/26/2004 10:10 AMIt looks like Microsoft (MSFT:Nasdaq - news - research) has cried wolf
too many times. Investors shrugged off the software behemoth's
conservative outlook for 2005, bidding up the stock Friday in the wake
of the firm's strong top- and bottom-line third-quarter results. After
all, many noted, Microsoft gave similarly conservative guidance a year
ago -- only to prove itself wrong with revenue growth on track to
reach an impressive 13% this year. On Friday, Microsoft shares jumped
$1.59, or 6.1%, to $27.54 with more than 255 million shares changing
hands -- about four times its average daily volume.

If you have PHP installed and you've loaded up 10.2.4 you've
probably noticed that PHP no longer works. By editing httpd.conf in
the following way I was able to get PHP back and running.
Disclaimer: I don't really know what I'm doing here, I'm just a
guy armed with BBEdit and some vague notions. Follow my lead at your
peril. That said:
- Open httpd.conf in the text editor of your choice.
- Find the following lines and uncomment them:
#LoadModule php4_module libexec/httpd/libphp4.so
#AddModule mod_php4.c
- Find this line:
Include /private/etc/httpd/users
- And add this line right after it:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
- Save.
- Open your System Preferences, go to Sharing and restart your web
server.
PHP should be running again. At least, it is for me ;-)

Heart-stopping sandwich of the year
Heart-stopping sandwich of the year
08/23/2004 06:36 AMCory Doctorow: Maxim Magazine has selected its
sandwich of the year: the Fat Darrell (invented by Darrell Butler
during his sophomore year at Rutgers University) contains chicken
fingers, mozzarella sticks and french fries. Maxim lauds it for its
"drunken ingenuity."
"So, I'm standing there eating it, and all of a sudden the guy
standing behind me says, 'That thing that guy's eating looks pretty
good, can you make me one of those?' And, it was like a movie scene,
the next 10 people order the same thing. So, I'm like, 'Whoa!' like I
think I might be onto something. And the guy is like, 'Hey, man, this
is cool.'"
That guy who assembled the sandwich was Abdul Eid, working in an R.U.
Hungry food truck, parked in a campus lot in New Brunswick, catering
to beer-soaked undergraduates with the late-night munchies.
Eid now runs R.U. Hungry Grill & Pizza, a store he was able to
open in part due to the success of the $4.75 Fat Darrell, the flagship
of R.U.'s "Fat" line.
