egads - RIAA defaced again!

Mini-PC - It seems everything is being mini’d these days…not the government though.

I’ve had some pretty cool dreams lately about what appears to be Middle Earth or medieval times. In one, a couple days ago, I was trekking across a plain in search of The Dark One. This morning’s was rather interesting too. The best part was how it ended, so I’ll just detail that. There was some big fiery scary monster, but I jumped down this tunnel and crawled along a passageway until I got to an area where there were some ropes. Pulling one of these ropes released enough water to drown/kill the monster. OK - It doesn’t sound that great here, but it was quite awesome in the dream. ;-)

OK - could somebody please tell me how Google is trying to index a domain’s website it should know nothing about?! This is a domain I recently registered. No links have been posted to it, nobody knows about it…yet, somehow good ‘ol Googlebot is trying to index it! perplexed

Wow - this is classic!

Buy a CD, tape, or vinyl between 1995 and 20010? See if you can get your money back from the RIAA. You can only get up to $20, unfortunately.

Oh look, this is where I’ll be next week. mmm..yyyeah Also, if those quotations are accurate, it’s nice to see that the THP apparently didn’t pass that English class back in the day.

Speaking of settlements, it seems MS has to pay out $1.1billion! It’s too bad I didn’t live in California between 1995 and 2001…

While reading about how Microsoft is dropping the .NET name for the next version of Windows Server, I saw somebody mention that microsoft.com is already running it. Yep, they were right: [me@linux:~]$ nc www.microsoft.com 80 HEAD / HTTP/1.0 *twice as many newlines as normal?!* HTTP/1.1 200 OK Connection: close Date: Sat, 11 Jan 2003 02:10:45 GMT Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0 Notice also that even though I specified HTTP/1.0, it said “HTTP/1.1 200 OK”. Odd…why does it not surprise me that MS seems to be breaking standards…

Interesting old article on OS X. Yes, I still want an iTit. I mean, come on! A 17" screen in something that pretty running BSD! How can you lose? Apple seems to be all about the huge displays. If you never have, I recommend you go down to your local tech store and simply drool at Apple’s Cinema HD Display. (Yes, I have no life, I know)
