Stupidest Guy on the Internet

Filed under: Ntahapehape, Eye Catching around 5:57 am

Online identity theft is a real problem. Especially for this guy. I want to believe that this is real, but… I’m thinking either photoshop or the guy who posted it is the guy who stole a wallet. I wouldn’t doubt if it is all the same guy who posted the story

Probably from some dead guy’s wallet he found floating in the river by his house. The dead guy he stole this off of won’t like this one bit!

Any one savvy enough to know how to scan and publish something on the Internet (complete with an annoying pop up message) can’t be stupid enough to give out his social… or can they? You shouldn’t carry your ss card in your wallet anyway. If you lost you wallet, you can cancel credit cards, but your SSN is a whole lot more of a pain.

Starwars Ep 3 English -> Chinese -> English

Filed under: Ntahapehape, Eye Catching around 5:54 am

These are screen shots from a dvd that was translated into Chinese and then subtitled back into English. Makes for some very, very funny engrish sentences.

Huh?? Jedi Council = Presbyterian Church? Hahahhhaaa.. Sides still hurts from laughing so hard. Maybe somebody just copied/pasted from Babelfish, which seems entirely likely here. Strangely enough, Yoda’s dialog translated perfectly…

I have no doubt that this is a real attempt at translation - before the OT came out on DVD, I had some “non-retail” versions which included english subtitles…me and my friends watched them all in one night because they were so hilarious..I would love to have this copy..

I remember reading some Lord of the Rings subtitles like this. Very very funny stuff. This has also been done to all 3 of the LOTR movies as well.

Make fire with ice.

Filed under: Eye Catching around 5:51 am

Make fire from ice, it is possible :) .

A novel application of a technique originally devoloped for burning polar bears’ eyes while under attack. This is much more practical. Now the next time i am in the wilderness in the middle of winter without matches and need some fire, i will be sure to go and build an apparatus to freeze ice without air bubbles in it then carve a sphere out of it… hehe pardon my sarcasm but really how plausible is this? thought i admit i do want a big sphere of ice…

You’d have more luck rubbing two sticks together. Or just taking a lighter in a plastic bag with you. Interesting read, but this really isn’t plausible for survival purposes unless you’re MacGuyver, in which case you can form a perfect ice sphere with your ungloved hands out of a snowball. If you’re going camping, don’t bring a big sphere of ice. Instead, just bring a lighter.

Seen it before.. it’s up there along with using a chocolate bar and a pop can to start a fire. Well, first aluminum (coke and chocolate), now ice… what’s next……glass?

Good Fonts for Grapic Designers

Filed under: Eye Catching, Interesting Findings around 5:48 am

A great resource listing 300 good fonts for graphic designers. They are free to download in .ttf format (works on both MacOSX and Windows machines). A nice way of wading through the enormous list of fonts available on the web nicely organized.

I hate searching for a font only to be asked to pay at the very end when I have already decided I like it. This is a great resource. Just in case anyone is wondering, if you want to download all these fonts, use the Down Them All! Firefox extension and choose *.ttf. Save them all to a folder and drag all of them into the Windows Fonts folder. Done :)

It’s great to not have to look through hundreds of junk fonts. This will be truly useful, especially since it also breaks it down into types of fonts.

In addition, I’d recommend DaFont. Their collection is huge, and includes most of the fonts covered. Just check the licensing before using any of them in a commercial project, as it varies, depending.

Other interesting sites: 1001fonts.com
and Larabie Fonts .

Download DVDShrink here

Filed under: Interesting Findings around 5:46 am

Feel free to jump on this opportunity. Not many websites continue to host it.

The program is not hard to find. Here’s the link which gave the true story. Follow the links…

“The development of DVD Shrink had already ceased, the last version of the tool was released more than a year ago..”

My only question is were is the source? If they do not want to continue the project, the community should continue it! Good to see people are all willing to keep these programs alive and served for as long and frequent as possible. If the community gets a hold of it, the software will never die just grow. I do not see these programs going a way like many have said.

Hacking Illustrated

Filed under: Net Security, Eye Catching around 5:38 am

A step by step guide on how to execute various exploits or use certain tools.

I always wonder if it’s smart to publish this kind of stuff to all. Sure, there are those that want to exploit to point out weakness, but there are others that will fall to the dark side. Hmm… Those videos are so jerky and there better ways to do the things he show how to do.

Google or surf USENET and the Internet to find more useful things. Pages are good. Documentation and hacker portals are even better. Actually this guy is very, very intelligent. He is called Irongeek. He isn’t fat, (He is actually into body building) and he isn’t a loser. He is somewhat well known in the world of computer security. His tutorials are actually quite good. No one person knows all the tricks. This guy is just sharing some of what he has learned.

Tech Support Excuse Generator

Filed under: Interesting Findings around 5:38 am

Ever want to talk over people’s heads while working on the support desk? Here’s you new best tool!

I think I’m going to call Dell up and use a couple of these on them, they will explode like fembots that have been aroused. Anyone that has actually ever provided tech support by phone knows that most end users will not accept techno jargon for answers.

Anybody who thinks those retarded mixed up tech words would actually make good tech support excuses, has obviously never provided tech support, or they have no business providing tech support.

Here’s a BOFH excuse generator you can put on your desktop. This lik prompts you to download an .exe file.

Google Earth, Google Moon, and Beyond…

Filed under: Google around 5:38 am

Here’s a list of the domain names Google registered

I’m sure they just register every google* domain that they think they may use so people don’t squat. It is pretty standard and doesn’t really mean there is active development on GoogleOS. Pretty soon there will be googlemyhouse product that finds things that you are looking for, once everything has RFIDs or something; Or GoogleMyFridge to see what food you have without having to walk all the way to the kitchen.

I want to know how long it takes until it is popular to hate google like everyone hates Microsoft?

Web standards complient WYSIWYG

Filed under: Interesting Findings around 5:37 am

The problem with most content management systems is that they are let down by their WYSIWYG. Finally however there is a WYSIWYG that not only enforces semantic code but also ensures basic accessibility.
