Stuck with a PIN
Stuck with a PIN
03/06/2004 02:08 AM"Ah, yes. I had had the same brain system failure that Chris described
- staring at the ATM and just not remembering that PIN! So now I write
the PIN number on the back of each card, in the signature box. WAIT!
No, I don't write the actual PIN. I use one 'formula' for all cards.
For example, a formula could be to add 3333 to the actual numbers of
your PIN. The new TOTAL is then written on the card. If this was your
formula, you only have to subtract 3333 from the PIN written on the
back of any card, and you will have the actual PIN for that card. Now,
does anybody remember where I left my wallet?" (A. John Gallant)...
Help! I'm stuck in a TTL, and I can't

Virus Writers Stuck In A Rut?
Virus Writers Stuck In A Rut?
11/03/2003 12:21 PMAnti-virus companies love to get people worked up into a lather about
all the virus threats out there, because it helps them sell more
product. So, it wasn't much of a surprise that, following the "big"
virus and trojan horse problems in August, the anti-virus "experts"
started warning that this was just a prelude to something worse, and
that we should expect even more virus problems as soon as the current
viruses died out. While it is good to keep users vigilant about virus
things, these announcements served more to make people ignore the real
problem: the anti-virus companies
failed. Of course, you don't
hear them speaking up now about the fact that their original
predictions of "the next wave" of viruses immediately following the
last wave
appears not to have come true. Especially with the SoBig
virus, we were told that the next version was supposed to appear in
September sometime, but that never happened. Of course, it's good
when we don't have virus outbreaks - and I have no doubt that they
will come again - but once again we have a situation where the
anti-virus folks seemed to hype things up beyond necessary.

getting stuck in salami and beer
12/19/2004 03:48 PMI watched My Coolest Years: The Geeks with Anne and the kids last night.
I thought the show was fantastic, and I was honored to be in such
great company. Open note to The Cool Guy who tormented Jessi Klein or
the girls from The Donnas: Dude, wherever you are, you are a
loser.
Biggest surprise of the show: John Tesh is hellafunny! I remember
that he played a Klingon for a day on Next Generation in the episode
"The Icarus Factor." Well, "played a Klingon" is probably a little too
much . . . he was sort of a featured extra in a line of about twenty
guys who wore Klingon makeup and costumes, and snarled while they
zapped Worf with painsticks. (Back then, a metric ton of celebrities
wanted to be on the show, and they usually ended up wearing crazy
alien make-up. Mick Fleetwood was this weird fish-looking thing, for
example.)
I remember that he was really friendly, and seemed to be getting a
HUGE kick out of the whole thing, but I don't remember him being as
funny as he was on My Coolest Years last night.
Best moment of the show: When I saw that they titled me "Wil
Wheaton: Author of Just A Geek" (which reminds me: Just A Geek has been
recommended by Quint, from Ain't It Cool News! I am in incredibly
good company over there, too. Thanks, Quint!) instead of That
Other Thing.
That's a big deal to me, you know. Though I personally feel that
I'm finally emerging from the shadow of America's Favorite Acting
Ensign And Starfleet Academy Classmate Killing Cadet, I wonder if I'll
ever do that in the eyes of the entertainment industry. This morning's
Dork Tower gives a funny-because-it's-true view
of how that effort is playing out in fandom.
. . . and in casting too, now that I really think about it . . .
but that's okay. The Path I'm currently wandering is a good one.
Absolute coolest moment in the show: They put up a picture of me
with my überhot wife as part of the "Geeks Ultimately Win, So
Bite It, You Cool Kids" portion of the show. Ryan just about died when
he saw Anne, in the coolest "I'm fifteen and I'm so proud of my mom"
way. (Apparently, the kids on his baseball team tried to torment him
by singing "Ryan's mom has got it goin' on" to the tune of "Stacey's
Mom," and he silenced them by replying, "Yeah. My mom's hot. So what?"
Sweet.)
Tonight, VH1 gives us My Coolest Years: The Dirty Hippies, which
should be hilarious. It looks like My Coolest Years could end up being
as great as I Love The 80s, or maybe even better. Go Generation X!
Rock! Yeah! \m/
If anyone from VH1 reads this: I had a blast, you guys. Thanks for
making me look cool. I'd love to work with you some more.

Dude, You're Getting Stuck With Spyware
Dude, You're Getting Stuck With Spyware
12/03/2003 01:48 AMSubmitted by
John and also seen on
Slashdot is the fairly insane news that Dell has told its tech support staff
not to tell people
about spyware removal products like Spybot Search & Destroy or
Adaware - even if it's clear that the problems they're experiencing
with their Dell machines are due to resource hogging spyware. Dell
tech support has been told they're not even allowed to point the user
towards potentially helpful resources on how to remove spyware.
Dell's reasoning for this is hard to comprehend, but appears to be
that removing spyware may go against some license agreements. Isn't
that for the end-user who
owns the computer to figure out on
their own? Besides, if that's really what's causing the problem on
the machine, isn't it the responsibility of Dell's tech support to
suggest the proper solution? There's also an
open
letter to Dell asking them to reconsider their position on this
matter.

More Than Wells Are Stuck In The Sand

More Than Wells Are Stuck In The Sand
Over Iraqi Oil
11/10/2003 11:31 PMIraq has a lot of oil, estimated at 112.5 billion barrels in proven
reserves which is the world's second-largest after Saudi Arabia's. As
many as 220 billion barrels are considered probable additional Iraqi
reserves. Before the current war, Iraq was producing 2.5 million
barrels of oil per day, with only 1.7 million of this output
authorized under the U.N. imposed "Oil-For-Food" economic sanctions.
At an average price of $25 per barrel, Iraq was making $43 million per
day in sanctioned sales and $20 million per day in unsanctioned ones.
The United States was the biggest importer of Iraqi crude, importing
366,000 barrels a day directly into the U.S. during December 2002,
with an estimated third of Iraqi oil output (800,000+ barrels per day)
ultimately ending up in the United States after intermediate
processing by third countries. Thus on the eve of Operation
Iraqi Freedom, Americans were paying Saddam around $21 million per day
or $620 million per month or around $7.5 billion per year. The rest
of the world was paying him twice this much for a total of around $25
billion per year. Such "tough" economic sanctions led in some
American political circles to (somewhat hypocritically, considering
the level of our Iraqi imports) have contempt for the United Nations
and concern over the amount of petromoney available for hostile
military buildup and WMD and even terrorist bankrolling... And so
there was a war.
