RUBBISH! Portland's top brass said it was OK to swipe your garbage–so we grabbed theirs.
Hee! I love the spirit behind that. Thank god I live in a state that requires search warrants for trash searches. I'm surprised OR doesn't, actually.

Oh, but we're totally committed to the UN weapons inspection process. Totally! I mean it! We don't plan to invade regardless of the inspections at all! Nope. Nope. Not at all.

Microsoft Reader format CRACKED!
OK, this guy is either a supergenius or … he's not very bright. Evidence: a) program name: clit.exe. b) he announces it publicly and additionally states his willingness to make a .dll so others may use the technology more easily.
Either he's looking to take up the Elcomsoft/DeCSS mantle as poster-boy for the anti-DMCA league or he's crazy like a fox. I give the MS attorneys about, oh, 36 hours before this guy get's a DMCA coloscopy.

Kroger Lets Shoppers Pay Via Fingerprint
What do we have here? A hard-charging latecomer to the Worst Ideas of 2002 category. Mmm… Panopticon. Who the hell thought it would be a good idea to have fingerprint scanners at the grocery store? Further, what retarded assmunches would actually give their fingerprint?!
Come on, y'all. If we can't even beat the supermarkets in the anti-Panopticon, who the hell can we beat?

Appeasement, Please: The case for paying North Korea's nuclear blackmail.
Good overview of how the situation came about. Synopsis: N. Korea's always practiced brinksmanship and the duhbya regime instigated this crisis in much the same way that America's halting of oil shipments to Japan precipitated the Pacific Theatre of WWII.

Rub a Dub Dub, Books for the Tub
Cool! Waterproof books, better than laminated paper. I don't really see a use for it, what with me being a dry-read kind of person… but still, cool.

Published in 1910! Awesome! Lots of typos and an ugly cyan background, but well worth the read.

'Designer baby' banned by judge
So the anti-choice, “every sperm is sacred, every life holy” brigade succeeded in their attempts to stop a couple from using an embryo's stem cells to save their 3 year old's life. So the “pro-life” group has now essentially murdered 2 lives by their reckoning: one, the unconceived embryo and the 3 year old. Ignorant twits.

XP Flaw Puts MP3, Windows Media Files at Risk
Jesus, what kind of crappy programming does it take to make a tooltip be able to root your box. Ridiculous!
… and reason number 302129 why you shouldn't use a MS OS.
Here's a link to a discussion of the winamp exploit as well.
