Dual Core on Metasploit.com

eighty — Thu, 19 May 2011 22:53:40 +0000

You may remember we released the song “Mastering Success and Failure” not too long ago. Shortly thereafter, metasploit.com underwent a re-design. Take a look at the second rotation in the header:

It’s us! How cool is that?! Also the metasploit team is still up to their excellent 1337ness, as usual

Pandora

Coming up on your 40 hours for the month on Pandora? Worry not. You can always register a new account and share your stations with the new account. If/when Pandora complains about the allotted time (40 hours) being used for the computer, just go find the .sol files on your system. On my Ubuntu system, they are located in ~/.macromedia/Flash_Player/#SharedObjects. These .sol files are called Local Shared Objects, essentially cookies for your flash player. Simply deleting them will clear the hours tracking for the computer, but before you do that, feel free to open them up in a hex editor and start poking around. I see some interesting parameters ;]

My friend showed me this the other day, I was loln. Designers, my heart goes out to you. Curse the Document Object and box Models — this makes me appreciate my job that much more. Well, I’m gonna :hover and set my z-index to negative infinity.

If you are on Firefox 3.5.1 and the site looks blocky or weird, blame Mozilla. http://support.mozilla.com/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?locale=en-US&forumId=1&comments_parentId=396245

Routing fail

eighty — Wed, 15 Jul 2009 18:54:33 +0000

Next Level is still not available online. You can thank whoever is dropping the packets going to PayPal from this server. Right now the last hop in my traceroute is a fuse.net system in Chicago. It may not mean Fuse is dropping, but either way, my packets are not getting to PayPal which means checkout with the cart will fail.

Give me a shout if you know someone at Fuse in Chicago that can help me look into this. At this point, I’ve got at least 2-3 separate upstream providers to deal with first.

This is what my life has been like today:

My man James Stallard posted this to our Facebook last night:

Dual Core are always for real, always make me feel that I’m at the beginning a long way from the end always there when I need to unplug from my lost reality, from the stresses and strains of everyday boredom really unwind you know that they make me always feel uplifted, gifted help me get all my thoughts sifted through the filter that lies inside because I’m only a Dual Core Chip, can only process two streams at once though not in a conventional sense I’m dense like the former fat boys you better hold on because I’m taking it forward like The Time Machine but with no scary Morlocks only Warlocks that’s always part of my skill set the other part is always CQC, though I’m not the big boss I’ll leave that to int0x80 and c64 the only Players that can beat the Players the nay sayers who like to bully us in the classroom and the playground, thoughts going round and round in their heads like a goto loop gonna set it off like a logic bomb to show them we can handle more than Random Bits…

That was pretty fresh if I do say so myself :]

Danger Mouse to release blank CD-R

eighty — Sat, 16 May 2009 14:42:44 +0000

You have heard music from Danger Mouse if you’ve ever listened to Gnarls Barkley, DANGERDOOM, or The Grey Album. Well the last of those, The Grey Album, triggered backlash from EMI resulting in extremely limited production of the mash-up project.

His new album, Dark Night of the Soul, is being released as a blank CD-R with the music being available online. The physical product will feature full artwork, just no music. It sounds as though the music should be easy to locate online. In fact, NPR is hosting a streaming version.

Dual Core on Wikipedia

eighty — Fri, 15 May 2009 06:01:00 +0000

I just found out that a Dual Core page was started on Wikipedia. The page is off to a good start, but could always use some love from our friends out there. Please swing by and add some facts about us :]
