(no subject)

I woke up this morning to the sound of the first Peter Pan bus from Amherst idling noisily in front of the building next door, rolled out of bed, went home (no this wasn't my bed) got dressed and got on the bus in less than 20 minutes. o_O I never move that fast in the morning. So weird. Must have gotten enough R&R yesterday.

( and now, this LOST rant (spoilers) )

So very sleepy....

bash takes on account security

http://www.bash.org/?703138
<sd> I was once trying to explain to an exec why his account would never be absolutely secure.
<sd> Me: "If somebody wants your account information badly enough, he's going to get it. He doesn't have to hack the system, he can just get it from you."
<sd> Exec: "That's crazy, I'd never give anyone my password."
<sd> Me: "Imagine you come home and find someone's broken in. He's got a gun to your daughter's head, and he tells you he's going to shoot in ten seconds if you don't give him your password. What would you do?"
<sd> Exec: [long pause] ... Which daughter?
<sd> To this day I still don't know if he was joking. But I no longer use that example.

Or you could just do what everyone else does and pretend you're Paypal. That works well enough.

The merry go round broke down

Who calls it a merry-go-round anyway? I always called it a carousel.

I'd kinda like to ride one now. Weird.

Nobody said I had to make sense. Nyeh.
