EFF: No Broadcast Flag  No Watermarks

Do you use Grisoft's free AVG?

If so, you might be surprised when you install their latest patch - it replaces the "up until 2021" free serial number with a 14 day trial key, and after that you have to pay...

So... What should you use instead?

I recommend AntiVir, by a German company - this is the free version of their Professional package designed for businesses... And it's free as in free free :) AntiVir Personal Edition (did I mention it's free).

Fancy buying eBay item 4146756343 (Ends Apr-28-04 15:37:01 PDT) - SIZE 12 WEDDING DRESS/GOWN NO RESERVE...?


Check out the photos, that guy fills the dress out REALLY well. I'm sure loads of women would love to wear something that guy's squeezed himself info. ¬¬

Step 1: Beg/Borrow/Steal copy of Harry Potter 1. Step 2:

Download these alternative audio tracks for the film, convert to Audio CD (with something like Nero Burning ROM / your favourite Audio CD creation programme).

Step 3: Mute audio on TV, turn up volume on CD player.

Step 4: Line up start of the Audio CD and the film on the TV (use instructions on following site for best results)

Step 5: Lean back, relax, laugh a lot. :D


What am I on about? you might ask... Go here to find out: Wizard People, Dear Reader. An awesome project, now available for all to enjoy on the interwebnet. Quality.

When Water Isn't Wet

WPVI.com: When Water Isn't Wet



....... It seems to defy the laws of physics (and nature can't be best pleased with it either)... But I'll go with it I suppose.

Perhaps I can drink water at my PC and not worry about spilling it into the case any more :D

You know what US Department of 'Justice'?

#263: 04-22-04 JUSTICE DEPARTMENT ANNOUNCES INTERNATIONAL INTERNET PIRACY SWEEP


YOU CAN KISS IT


I hate it when the "law" gets heavy-handed. Because we all know that the remaining groups will step up their efforts to piss them off even more... It's a no win situation for them in the long run.

Paper DVDs on the horizon eh?

Whatever next.


I got rained upon when I was walking home from the bus stop this afternoon - it totally sucked. The ONE day I don't have an umbrella with me.


AND I've been awake for more than 27 hours now... Life is great woo.

This worries me quite a bit...

It's surprising just how many people have spyware on their machines - take a look at this survey that Earthlink conducted a short while ago - the number of infected computers is really quite ridiculous.

Time to get Adaware distributed en-masse...

... And while you're at it, give me one of these Star Trek Communicator gadgets :D They actually exist! And work! Awesome.

All I can say is

... Somebody's got waaaaaaaaaaay too much free time on their hands. And probably a bootleg copy of Photoshop as well. But we won't worry about that last point. ;)

The Zoo Of Ugly!
