As subtle as a flying brick.

Whee

So its Monday morning, and it looks like I won’t be going to defcon after all, pity. I would have loved to have gone and spoken about something. OH well, next year. So I’m now to be known as RobDurdle.com. I’ve spent a good chunk of this weekend making procmail work for somebody who’ll never know how easy it was for me to do, once I remembered how. I act like a moron most of the time I think, but I’m not actually that stupid.. I’ve just forgotten a lot, its all coming back now though. I just need to get over my shy streak 🙂
I should probably sleep sometime soon, but I’m not tired. I ate at Boston pizza last night, and its reviews aren’t nearly bad enough. My stomach hurts so badly, its icky there.
So an ex thinks I’m an ‘ok’ guy now, odd, last month she hated me with a passion, hehe, until she realized I’m actually a decent/nice guy.


Mmm sleep

*yawn* well damn, that was a good sleep, go to bed at 12, get up at 12. I do once a week, its good to get some sleep sometime. I never really went in for the whole idea of ‘sleep’. There’s so much cooler things to be doing at night , rather then sleeping, not just naked things, good decent criminal things is what I’m thinking about.
Oh, speaking of which, the ultra-stable web server of the Unix world has a nice new remote exploit bug in it, go apache!! whee. It seems, that the higher and more powerful a system that you run it on, the easier it is to remotely exploit. *clap clap* good job dumbasses. I’ve a scanning tool for it somewhere, When I get around to it, I’ll post it on my soon-to-be downloads section.
So it’s a sunny day, and I’m probably going to go out, and go to the park, eww, green things, nature smells, and all this heat makes me sweat, which makes me smell, generally summer stinks when you don’t have a decent bike.


Entry the 1st

Well kids, welcome to my 1st post on this brand spanking new website. Its going to be me mostly bitching and whining, but anyone who knows me, will be more then used to that by now…
I’ll be posting mostly useless things that bother me, or amuse me in daily life (being that I’m such a whiney bitch, I’ll tell you now, it’ll be mostly things that bother me).
Anyway, Its Saturday, and I’m at work, go-go anti-virus. My boss snagged me a sweet gift from 3d-realms, mmm duke nukem gear. I love my job 🙂 I get so many cool toys. I’ll write more as time goes on, but remember to come back often, especially while at work, waste your company’s bandwidth as much as possible.


Aerogel

Aerogel – it holds six world records for physical properties and is nicknamed ‘blue smoke’ for its appearance; unsurprising since it is 99.8% air. Despite being used in the NASA Stardust and Mars Pathfinder missions, aerogels are not a recent invention and they were first prepared in 1931. It’s also a great insulator – here are some wonderful photos of it in action.
