I’m losing my perspicacity!
What crappy awful weather today. Pouring rain all day. Have a job interview this afternoon at 3pm, sitting at my current desk for the last time now. Gotta collect my stuff, upload all of my files and crap somewhere to the network, turn in my security pass and SecureID keyfob, grab some lunch, run up […]

The new Guster album, Keep It Together, comes out on June 24th. Guster kicks mega ass. Also, they’ve made six out of the thirteen tracks on the album available for listening (not downloading, sort of) on their website – at the Guster Player. Super-secret stuff: the tracks are stored as MP3 files embedded into Shockwave […]
my tfnet experience
This was originally posted to the RBUA forums. Well, I promised in another thread that once I got my TFNet (Toronto FreeNet) connection setup I’d write a post about it. So, this is that post 🙂 I suppose it’s also sort of a good “what happens when you sign up for DSL” for people who’ve […]

Anyways, last night we went to see X2 (aka X-Men 2, aka some other silly titles) at the budget-conscious Rainbow Cinema Fairview across the street from our […]
Hotmail & Passport (.NET Accounts) Vulnerability – holy crap. Hey, anyone with a web browser can reset anyone else’s MS Passport password, thereby completely screwing them! This is BAD. Yet another reason to not keep all your eggs in one basket – in this case the Microsoft basket.
DSL update
Well, TFNet called me back with the status of my DSL order. As I suspected, we’re all waiting on Bell to install the line card, do the tests etc. The order for this went to Bell on the 2nd, so once they notify TFNet that it’s installed and ready I’ll get my username and password, […]
I am back.
guelph.unna.org/misato.chuma.org are still down though. The line card hasn’t been installed on my line yet, and actually the phone jack in the computer room isn’t even wired. Bleh. Gotta call torfree and buy a long phone extension.
