"I sue dead people..." 02/05/2005 09:26 PM
The RIAA has done some MIND BLOWINGLY stupid things in the past, but this one actually had me baffled! According to a report from Ars Technica, it seems that the RIAA has gone after a deceased woman in order to get what they feel they have coming to them. Yes folks, these idiots actually tried to sue someone who has already passed on. Worst part was, I have seen no evidence of an apology for…

Do you see dead people? Do you believe in ghosts? Extrasensory perception? UFOs and alien abductions? Can faith alone heal what modern medicine cannot? Do you fear demon possession or live in fear of crossing paths with Bigfoot on some dark and lonely road? Do you believe in lucky numbers or that the wandering stars and planets hold dominion over your destiny? Do magnets exhibit mysterious healing qualities? If your answer to one or more of those questions is yes, then take heart: you're far from alone.

These two pictures are of a dead man right outside the Helsinki Central Railway Station. Snapped with a cameraphone, and uploaded to Flickr with GPRS, the pictures spread with RSS and tags to people who sit comatosely with their aggregators and browsers, and feed on the information stream.

This is what street journalism is[1]. Whether it is a good thing, or a bad thing, I cannot say. That is up to everyone to decide for themselves.

But you saw it first in the blogosphere.

Access OR I'd Rather Suck a Dead Toad
and HELP !!! 10/18/2002 06:19 AM
Windows 2000 Server Routing and Remote Access OR I'd Rather Suck a Dead Toad and HELP !!! Yesterday I wasted an entire day to get close to 0 results. Sigh. Here's the deal. One of our clients, a non-profit, who specializes in placing people with disabilities in jobs asked us recently for some basic networking help. They needed a VPN set up and their internal network needed to have a "bastion" network server added. A bastion network server is a single computer with two network cards through which all Internet traffic passes. It (generally) provides via dhcp the addresses for a local subnet like 192.168.x.y and is the sole outside machine that is exposed on the Internet. [ Good Article on Bastion Networks ] Right now their ISP has provided them with external IP addresses for each of their office computers (and server) and they run ZoneAlarm on each machine to "protect" them. This is one of the more brain dead ways to run an office lan with Internet access and just plain scares the crap out of me. DO NOT DO THIS FOR YOUR OFFICE !!! Their IT guy is one of their staff and NOT a Linux person who does the IT along with being a full time case worker. I convinced him that this was unsafe and we should do it with implementing a basic VPN. He had a licensed copy of Windows 2000 Server and thus began my descent into the land of "I'd rather suck a dead toad". I do know that some folks have had really good luck with using Windows 2000 Server for this type of purpose. I had no luck. None of the options for Windows 2000 Routing and Remote Access worked -- if I got DHCP working then the lan worked only locally and client machines couldn't see the Internet. If I setup the VPN options (as per Microsoft's exact directions) then the server couldn't see the Internet (and stopped responding to external Pings). Oh and just as a warning to others -- INSTALL SERVICE PACK 3 FIRST. I lost a lot of time since I didn't realize the machine was missing service pack 3 and apparently none of this stuff works without SP3. No I can't confirm this with Microsoft's fix list but after doing an SP3 upgrade then and only then did the NAT options begin working. So here's what I'm looking for: Can a single computer running Windows 2000 Server do this? Serve both as a bastion host and as an incoming VPN server? Theoretically it is possible but practically I'm starting to wonder if their setup tools allow it. Exact, step by step directions to do this (if they exist). I've done I can't tell you how many Google queries and there are directions out there --- but they all are hinted at in the tables of contents of different books -- not anything like a good Linux How To document. Alternatives. If Windows 2000 Server isn't a good way to do this then I can drop a dedicated Linux box on site but I'll end up picking up the maintenance burden so low maintenance would be good. One approach I'm considering is a small Linksys hardware firewall between their outside Internet connection and their internal lan to provide the DHCP. These boxes, which are generally used for home networking, are actually quite reliable and since the office only has a fractional, shared T1, would be fast enough. Since these are only in the $70 range now, I can just chuck one in for free as a donation (we're only talking about 5 or 6 machines in the office plus one server). At a minimum this is safer than Zone Alarm. Tip #1: The pain started 1st thing when I got their and neither of the network cards in the bastion host (well the theoretical bastion host) could ping. Standard IBM etherjet cards that worked perfectly before going in this box. Know what fixed them? Just moving the graphics card over one slot and the moving the two network cards over to where the graphics card was. Go figure. Plug and Play ? Try Plug and Pray or as I prefer "Plug and sacrifice a goat". Tip #2: I did expect some problems so I brought along an extra hub with me which I setup immediately. This let the "bastion" host and the IT guy's laptop be isolated from the main network preserving Internet access for everyone else in the office. This way for the 8+ hours that I had to tinker with the beast known as Windows 2000 Server Routing and Remote Access at least Internet access was preserved. Note: They're budget strapped and since we've done one big project for them this fell into the category of free help for good client relations.

Congrats to Roland and Boris and.....

They've just launched Bryght - a Drupal hosting service. I hung out with these guys a bit when I was in Vancouver and they're certainly a compelling reason for moving there.

Vancouver is hot.

Here's Roland's post....

Our latest venture is Bryght, a hosted Drupal service, "the Salesforce.com of community content". I am working with Boris, Richard, Adrian and James on this one. Yes, we are all Bryght guys :-) !

We have taken Drupal and combined it with web hosting and email to give you a one stop shop for your community content. No IT required, no muss, no fuss! Check out The lights are on at Bryght for more background on how this started. And if you know of an individual, organization or company that could use a Bryght site, please contact us.

Whither StreamLine you might ask? StreamLine continues and it will continue to resell Blogware blogs because we still believe that Blogware is the best individual blogging platform.

Lily Cheng from Microsoft Research is talking about how people represent themselves on line. The closer the friends, the fuzzier they want the representations. We need to make social tools fluid enough to account for the way people's lives change. We need easy access to friends and people important to us. We want sponatenous interactions. Lily's group went to a mall and asked people to draw their social interactions, and gots lots of circles and lines. Microsoft studied this and built a "personal map" that clusters people based on who they send email to (TO and CC) and how...

Dead pixels instead of dead trees

Dead pixels instead of dead trees 12/22/2004 01:49 AM

I love books, I love browsing stacks, I love libraries, I love Powell's in Portland, I like collecting books, I always have a stack nearby to read, I love looking through picture books, and I love books even though I didn't really become much of a reader until the end of my college years (I never read for fun until then). Plunging into the Internet fed my book addiction further, as I had to read dozens of computer classics to get up to speed and stay ahead of the curve. Every computer desk I've had until recently was flanked by bookshelves loaded with titles.

Earlier this year, I remember hearing Cory Doctorow give a talk about how ebooks were going to rule the world and folks would abandon the printed page for the laptop screen. I thought it was a good talk, but I felt the thesis was a bit ahead of its time. There's really no comparison between curling up with a book and a blanket in front of a fireplace, versus trying to read thousands of words on a screen.

Last weekend I was doing some house cleaning and I kept finding stacks of books. A stack next to the reading chairs. A stack on the coffee table. A stack beside my bed. All these stacks contained books I bought in 2004, but never read. Some, I got halfway through, but even more I got maybe ten pages in. A few I never even cracked open.

When I think back to the last three books I enjoyed, they were all heard on my iPod, while on a road trip. I can't recall the last book I finished in my hands.

I'm going to take a holiday trip soon to a fairly remote location where there's not much to do besides read. I'm going to sit and read the only book I've wanted to read this year, and I have a feeling it might just be one of the last dead tree books I read for a long time.

As much as I didn't agree with Cory back during his E-tech talk, I'm finally realizing it's coming true in my own life. I read thousands of words everyday on my monitors and I rarely take time to read anything on the printed page, and there's no sign of reversal on that trend. The scariest thing for the bookfan inside me is that I don't think it's bad thing, either.

Long live the ebook. Long live the audiobook. So long, dead trees.

In television these days, there is hardly a show that doesn’t have the blood flowing or the boobies showing. It is hard to find a show that makes it on wit alone. Till a few weeks ago, I thought I had found the saving grace with Showtime’s original show, Dead Like Me. I guess a few executives didn’t share my opinion. The fight is far from over though. In the past shows would have died…
