DirectNIC DC broken into by 82nd Airborne
Topic: Miscellaneous 8:08 am EDT, Sep  7, 2005

The 82nd Airborne broke into DirectNIC's DC last night, and the building as well.

As a result of thier stupidity, it was suggested that the building was secure until they entered it and there might be other people in the building.

28 floors. No elevators.

pwn3d.

History of the NOLA Pumping Stations
Topic: Miscellaneous 5:40 pm EDT, Sep  6, 2005

Here's a link from the Army that details the history of the New Orleans pumping stations and designs. It should be noted that these pumps are absolutely phenomenal in most senses; not only were they well ahead of thier time (they look like jet engines), but they also moved insane amounts of fluids. Several of the pumps were rated to 1,000 cfs -- cubic feet per second. Unless you're used to dealing with those units, you don't realize that's something on the order of 16 million gallons per minute.

It's well worth the read if you are an engineer or engineering student of any kind.

Someone needs to take this idea and do a MAKE article on it.

Citizens Free to Videotape Cops
Topic: Miscellaneous 3:45 pm EDT, Aug 26, 2005

A state police department has to pay $41,000 to a man who they stopped from filming them.

I imagine we'll soon see lots of video clips of troopers sitting on the side of the road, sleeping. At least that's what I'm hoping for.

Physics Engine Flash Game

After you play this for a bit, it really seems to resemble a sadomaschism home kit.

Portable Quake
Topic: Miscellaneous 2:57 pm EDT, Aug 25, 2005

Now for the other handheld devices, there's "It Plays Quake". Finally, I get a reprieve from Doom.

I used to waste a lot of time on Quake. Probably one of the few reasons I'm any good at driving.

("I'm an excellent driver. Just ask any of my passengers -- as soon as they have thier fingers pried off the dash and seats.")

The Gothic Martha Stewart
Topic: Miscellaneous 1:19 am EDT, Aug 14, 2005

Someone has made a site, which promotes itself to be what Martha Stewart would be like if she were gothic. Tips for making stuff, gothic home furnishing, etc.

Interesting, but how far can you go with Gothicism?

Doom on the iPod
Topic: Miscellaneous 1:45 pm EDT, Aug 11, 2005

Yes, they ported Doom to the iPod. Now you can play Doom while you're waiting on the train, or listen to your tunes.
