scary daemon processes

The media can even demonize a daemon.
I'm trying to look at cnn.com to check the latest news so I can
read the latest deal with the FBI and those people who smurfed eTrade.
Usual bullshit involved.

``The official said these tools, called daemons, can be planted on
hundreds of innocent third-party computers''
Fuck the media. I can't believe how these idiots manipulate words.
I remember when they first started using the word ``hacker'' to describe
a computer miscreant. These are the same dipshits that first coined
the term ``thug'' to mean some sort of bad guy. Now ``daemon.''

Vacationing from Somnambulant Narrow Realities
So about six months ago, I was chilling in Chang Mai, Thailand with ICBINJ, perursing the Bangkok Times over my banana pancake and Big Chang breakfast when I spotted this article reprinted from the LA Times. It was about some kooks from California (where else?) who were claiming to have been to the front lines in Afgahnistan in mid-December and had recorded the whole feat on their website. "Holy Fuck!" I thought, "Now That's web journalism. Who are these guys!?" (More...)

A Day in the Life of a Beverotologist
It was starting to look like a very boring Saturday, trapped as I was in the suburban wastelands of the outer Bay Area, so I called my Able Assistant (AA) and proposed that we perform some Spocktail field tests. For some time I've been working on creating the quintessential cinematic beverage and even tho' SMRL does most of its testing during nocturnal hours, this seemed an opportune time to roll up the sleeves of our labcoats and get some science done. While the beverotology creation tested this day (The Neurotoxin) must be deemed a success, this article focuses more the journey of the experimenters, rather then the science of beverotology.
