Fred’s Notes

This is fun. Really.

Alison DeLauzon, Reuters reports, had her camera stolen when left an equipment bag in a restaurant in Florida. The folks who allegedly took the bag also took pictures of themselves, which isn’t unusual. But DeLauzon had an Eye-Fi wireless Secure Digital (SD) card in her camera, received as a gift. The thieves apparently wandered by an open access point with the same SSID as one that DeLauzon had configured for use, and pictures of her baby and the thieves were uploaded to her picture-sharing account. Nifty.

This is why Jaiku rocks. The question was When did you last buy a pack of condoms?. One of the answers:

Last week bought 500 balloons… My youngest kid birthday party. I think the point is: when you settle down, you still buy latex-derived products, just for different purposes. (melo)

Priceless.

Excuse me, could anyone point to me an iptables p2p blocker module, excluding ipp2p? Is there such a beast? ipp2p project seems to be dead (since 2006). And identifying p2p protocols is always a catch&run game. Thanks.
