Brain Seeking at it’s Best

Digital Camera

Filed under: Hardware — Perlboy at 2:18 pm on Tuesday, January 27, 2004

Heya,

Yeah well, despite what Sally suggested (Save your money and get a better one) I bought a $70 digital camera today. It was on special down from $120 cause Tandy is closing shop at Toowong. I couldn’t resist and figured I’d rather spend the $500 or so I would spend on a decent digital camera on something else. SOO.. I’ve got a digital camera (with video out) now.. Groovy.

I smell a Brisbane River Cam. ;)
Been coding a fair bit using my Big Cowboy framework. Still can’t give an answer to people who ask how I came up with the ideas used for BC. *shrugs* Too much wine maybe? But it was fruitful nonetheless with a nice framework to expand as much as I want/need.

WHOA! That was crazy!

We had a very wild storm here. Knocked out power out for 14 hrs, blew down trees, hard fast driving rain. Intense stuff! :)
Now we’re back online and the only thing misbehaving is my mail server. Damn. :(

[0]treerex writes “[1]NIST (the US National Institute of Standards andTechnology) has just released a 148 page report entitled [2]ComputerSecurity Incident Handling Guide (PDF). It covers the gamut, from settingup a response team to dealing with specific types of attacks: DoS,trojans, worms, malicious code, and unauthorized access. While written bya team from NIST and the contractor [3]Booz-Allen Hamilton (BAH), theyappear to have taken input from CERT and luminaries like Spafford.

It is an interesting read.”

Hey Peeps,

Yep I’m still here. Sal and I noticed a sale at Sanity a few days ago and got the following CDs:

Smooth Jazz: Sophisticated Jazz Cool
Mob Hits: The Ultimate Casino Soundtrack
Contraband: The Best of Men at Work
Lamb: Fear of Fours
Midnight Oil: 20,000 Watt R.S.L
Something for Kate: Echolalia

I’ve also been spending a few hours a day at TereDon Net Cafe. 6MB link (only 640K up) has meant I could pull a few GB and burn it to CDs to help me along with my up2date service at Serverpeak.com.

Check em out at http://www.tdce.com.au
