06/04/2004 12:34 PMWord has it that Toshiba is planning on putting a TV tuner into one
of their laptops, to which I can only really say: it's about time.
It's always been painful to have this sharp, crystalline displays go
to waste when it could, for a few dollars more in tuner chips, be
working just fine as a TV. I know there are lots of ways you could add
the functionality now, through either software or hardware solutions,
but it just seems like such a no-brainer I'm surprised more companies
aren't doing it.
I mean, it would be like Apple not putting high-quality line-in
recording into the iPod, even though the hardware could support it. Oh
wait...

New worm attack races across the net
New worm attack races across the net
02/10/2004 02:47 AM
A new worm is racing across the internet and the world.
MyDoom downloads from an email attachment, opens a NotePad file,
creates a backdoor for hacking, and copies email addresses, to
whom it then sends copies of itself. It also
spreads by the KaZaA peer-to-peer application. A
somewhat less virulent variant, called MyDoom.B,
weakens each infected computer's antivirus updating, and purportedly
targets Microsoft's home page. Warding off these attacks and cleaning
up afterwards should be costly .
One difference between this worm and previous
ones is that it has a named, political target: the SCO group, recently
pursuing Linux
users as massive as IBM in a large licensing campaign. The virus
payload is programmed to ping SCO's website during the first twelve
days of February, which could, in large and distributed enough
numbers, form a denial of service (DOS) attack. SCO is offering a substantial
reward for information on the designers of the attack.
Restrictions on target emails complement this approach,
preventing spread to addresses from IBM, Microsoft, Linux, or
helpdesks.
The Department of Homeland Security launched an
email alert system shortly
after the worm apepared. McAffee
also has information and removal instructions .

Saturday and Sunday, June 12th and 13th,
Chopped Chainsaws and Non-Normally Aspirated Angle Grinders will go
head-to-head down 75 feet of two-lane blacktop at The Shipyard
International Speedway (aka Ace Junkyard). From Super Stock
off-the-shelf machines, to full-tilt multi-motor Top Fuel
moooooonnnstrosities, it will be capacitor blowing, carbide tooth
shrapnel mayhem brought to you by, well, *you*- the finest redneck
fabricators (a.k.a. machine "artists") in the Bay Area.
Participants and spectators alike will thrill to the speed and smells
as Black and Decker, Porter Cable, DeWALT and Milwaukee battle it out
for supremacy, dubious claims to glory, lots of cold hard cash, and
yet another turn-the-key-and-drive-it-away EDSEL for the fastest run
of the day (also known heretofore as "The Edsel
Cup").
So join Dr. Hal Robbins, Chicken John and
John Hell as they engage us for an afternoon of semi-benign alcohol
fueled abuse with all the local aristocracy including: Flash-O-Matic
on the V-8 Blender, the triumphant return of the Sean Kelly's Trashy
Trailer Massage and Wellness Center, Justin Incredible's Miracle
Wax(ing) Booth, and a special Synchronized Welding and Pole Dance
Intermission Extravaganza by the Happyland Drill Team Cheerleaders!
Music, hot dogs, cotton candy, posters, T-shirts, promo booths,
special games for the kids, Seth Maxwell Malice, and much much more
yet to be figured out will make it a day of family fun not to be
missed . . .
If confused, see what happened last year at:
htt
p://laughingsquid.org/pix/2003_05/power_tool_drag_races/
WHAT'S NEW THIS
YEAR:
This year we have TWO new racing classes and
ONE fabulous TV contract with the Discovery Channel and Natural
History New Zealand so come out for a day (actually two days) at the
races and be the media WHORE that Deep Down you KNOW you are!
All fun aside, kids, this year we've hit the
Big Time (or something appearing to approximate it). The above
will be filming the event this year to create 4 one-hour pilot
programs to be aired on the Discovery Channel next fall/winter as part
of Discovery's ever expanding offerings in the "idiot American
fabricators build stupid things" subgenre of the reality TV
genre. The production company behind this is a nice group of
folk from New
Zealand and not a sleezy LA porn
outfit, as one would likely expect for the event in question. We
appear to have a reasonable contract and nice collaborative
relationship with them that will retain our full control of the event
(so all of us do not end up embarrassed for the rest of our lives) and
allow us to continue doing whatever we want at the event (but with no
guarantees about what will have to get edited out for family
TV). For more details on how all this will work, we think, see
www.qbox.org.
The Production Company is already here in
the Bay Area and about to start shooting all of you that are
interested while you build your crazed engineering monstrosities and
tell lies about your lives. They want about 10 people/teams to follow
in great detail as they build their machines over the next two
months. Those interested in being on the list of potential
featured contestants should tell Charlie and Jim, or better yet,
Simone (simone@qbox.org) very
very soon.
RACING CLASSES: (for full rules, see: http://www.qbox.org/ptrules.s
html)
As usual, there will be classes for both
machines that run "riderless" in wood tracks, and customs which their
maker(s) "ride" down open asphalt lanes. This year we have added
two new classes ("Unusual Designs" and "Sex Toys") and consolidated
the Ridden Classes into a single class as no one seems to want to
build double person ridden machines. This year we promise to
have not one, but two "designated organizers" who stay cognizant
enough to keep track of all this (Smone and Lera) and hold chaos at
bay until all races are fairly and squarely run. And we have
expanded the event to two days so we are sure to actually finally
really make it through the double elimination rounds (for the first
time) as well as give the film crew one day where they can be more
invasive to get the shots they need (Saturday), whereas Sunday will be
the regular plate of mayhem and the film crew will have to fend for
themselves.
THE PURSE(S)
Each class will pay back 100% of entry fees
for that class, plus some extra money we'll throw in, so we can pay
down to third place in each class this year. It will take around
15 entries per class on average to create a $500 purse for 1st
place.
Special Mystery Prizes, awarded by special
mystery judges for:
Most impressive
engineering
Most pathetic
engineering
Most dangerous
machine
Most spectacular
crash
Machine most likely to get its maker laid
And . . .
Machine most likely to get the most air time
on TV
And of course, the rotating "Edsel Cup" for
the fastest top speed run of the day. Current track record is
held by none other than Jim Mason, artist, with his CO2 fire
extinguisher rocket car, which last year crossed the finish line at
64MPH, covering the 75 foot track in 1.7 seconds. Go faster and
drive the Edsel home yourself.
ENTRY FEE(S):
The entry fees are as follows until May
15th. After May 15th, the entry fees will go up, just like
Burning Man. To reduce chaos, and
embarrassing disorganization, we will NOT be accepting entries the day
of the races. Entry fee for racing is paid via Paypal only at www.paypal.com to account simone@qbox.org
Super Stock:
$30
Sex Toys: $30
Modified: $35
Funny Car: $40
Unusual Designs / Top Fuel:
$45
We have set the entry fee above $0 so we can
have real purses for the winners. What is a drag race without a
good purse anyway?
Each racing team will get 2 free entries to
the event for both days. Additional tickets will be available at
the regular door price of $10 for Saturday, $15 for Sunday.
Regular gate entries for spectating can be purchased at the gate the
day of the races.
For more information, see www.qbox.org. All inquiries, questions and complaints
should be directed to Simone at simone@qbox.org.
