it never rains under my umbrella

it never rains under my umbrella 02/18/2004 07:59 PM

We are on full-on STORMWATCH!!!11 here in Los Angeles, which is perfect because today was the first day in ages when I actually had to drive down into Hollywood during rush hour. All those jokes about how bad people drive when it rains in LA? They're funny because they're true. I'd just like to take a moment, and give "The Finger" to the entire city. . . . Okay. I feel much better. Thank you. :)

« A soggy Helsinki Day on a Finnish tall ship. »

Helsinki will be empty by evening as people flee to their summer cottages to eat, drink and dance around the Juhannus bonfires. The forecast calls for rain through Sunday so it's sure to be a bit soggy and chilly....just like last year. It is supposedly summer, but I prefer to call it the 'not-winter' season since this weather is what we get in March back home. :) But, at least it's not snowing and what's not to love about white nights, cold beer and grilled sausages with friends even if a bit moist? I'm looking forward to getting out of the city and not doing Finnish homework for a week or so. Happy Juhannus to all. :)

Hail Umbrella


Hail Umbrella 02/10/2004 02:49 AM

Nissan is deploying a device they believe will protect the car lots at their plants from being damaged by hail. The sonic cannon sends sound waves 50,000 feet into the air in an attempt to keep hailstones from forming.

It automatically activates when its own weather radar system detects conditions favorable for the formation of hail. It fires every 5.5 seconds, making a sound we know can be heard at least five miles away from the Nissan plant near Canton.

If they'd only develop the same sort of thing to deter tornadoes I'd feel much safer living here in South Dakota.

Thanks Leo.

Bluetooth Umbrella Networks


Bluetooth Umbrella Networks 08/12/2004 09:20 AM

bluetooth_umbrellas.jpg imageA team called "Umbrella.net" (no relation to Umbrella Corp, we hope) has developed a prototype system of Bluetooth umbrellas that facilitate "sudden, striking, and unexpected connections between people in public and urban space" by forming ad-hoc mesh networks when unfurled. As each umbrella is opened and added to the network, it lights as it comes online. Unfortunately, since there's not a whole lot to do when creating ad-hoc networks that aren't connected to the internet, the primary application of the short range networking system is chat.

Short-range, wireless chat. Now if only we could evolve vibrating, fleshy cords in our throats and a set of communicative phonemes, maybe we could run the chat system entirely with bio-generated power over a sonic carrier.

Umbrella 0.6 (Default branch)


Umbrella 0.6 (Default branch) 03/17/2005 03:36 AM
Umbrella is a security mechanism that implements a combination of Process-Based Access Control (PBAC) and authentication of binaries through Digital Signed Binaries (DSB). The scheme is designed for Linux-based consumer electronic devices ranging from mobile phones to set-top boxes. Umbrella is implemented on top of the Linux Security Modules (LSM) framework. The PBAC scheme is enforced by a set of restrictions on each process. This policy is distributed with a binary in form of execute restrictions and within the program via a "restricted fork" feature.
Changes:
Complete integration with GNU Privacy Guard to authenticate binaries was implemented. Use of hash tables for storing restrictions has been replaced by the FSR data structure, which mimics the "dentry" structs in the kernel. The Umbrella system call was eliminated and completely replaced by a /proc filesystem interface. The Umbrella code is now completely independent of all architectures and kernel subversions.
