Our wings are not tired

We have one of the AT&T family talk plans with rollover minutes and it serves us very well. We both share the same pool of minutes and the second phone is only an additional $10/mo.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

We have the Alltel version of the same thing.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Weird hack of gMail: [link]

The victim visits a page while being logged into GMail. Upon execution, the page performs a multipart/form-data POST to one of the GMail interfaces and injects a filter into the victim’s filter list. In the example above, the attacker writes a filter, which simply looks for emails with attachments and forwards them to an email of their choice. This filter will automatically transfer all emails matching the rule. Keep in mind that future emails will be forwarded as well. The attack will remain present for as long as the victim has the filter within their filter list, even if the initial vulnerability, which was the cause of the injection, is fixed by Google.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

seems my boss got an iPod Nano for xmas. Which is very funny, as he is very anti-Apple. So he's bemoaning that he has to load Apple software. Of course, he's asked my help to tutor him in the ways of iPod and iTunes. Very funny.

Holy Shit: 150-Inch Panasonic Plasma HDTV at CES

Japanese paper Yomiuri is reporting that Panasonic will unveil a 150-inch plasma to show the world who has the biggest flatscreen manufacturing capability. That above is the photo of the now second-place 103-inch plasma as big as a queen-sized bed. (Sharp has the current title of biggest at 108-inches). If your mcmansion isn't big enough to fit it, don't even bother inquiring about the price.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm still stuck on CeeLite, the sheets of light.

Bring me CeeLite to light my shots.

150"?? Holy cow. Looks like Fahrenheit 451 walls aren't that far away.

Makes me wonder...how seamlessly can LCDs do this effect? What's their mandatory margin?
