MyDoom the fastest-spreading worm ever - Geek stuff

Finnish security software and services company F-Secure made the coronation late Wednesday, declaring the MyDoom the fastest-spreading worm ever and "the worst e-mail worm incident in virus history" in a letter research director Mikko Hypponen wrote.
F-Secure estimated that the worm was accounting for 20 percent to 30 percent of worldwide e-mail traffic Wednesday, putting it well ahead of previous nasties, such as the SoBig.F worm.

O worm não usa nenhum bug do Windows, nao culpem a MS dessa vez, alias, quase todos os clientes de mail com menos de 2 anos sem updates avisam o usuario "Você tem certeza que quer instalar o worm? SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIM"

Pode-se concluir que:

- Existem muitos idiotas usando e-mail (sim, eu sei que existem muitos idiotas no planeta, mas não sabia que boa parte usava e-mail).
- Nunca subestime a capacidade dos idiotas, eles nao leem nada, clicam em qualquer coisa.

Apple Introduces Macintosh Advanced Personal Computer

First Macintosh Press Release

CUPERTINO, Calif., January 24, 1984--Apple Computer today unveiled its much-anticipated Macintosh computer, a sophisticated, affordably priced personal computer designed for business people, professionals and students in a broad range of fields. Macintosh is available in all dealerships now. Based on the advanced, 32-bit architecture developed for Apple's Lisa computer, Macintosh combines extraordinary computing power with exceptional ease of use--in a unit that is smaller and lighter than most transportable computers. The suggested retail price for Macintosh is $2,495, which during the introductory period also includes a word-processing program and graphics package.

Joguinho - Geek stuff

Seguindo a dica do Tetsuo comecei a jogar Homeworld, que vício, o jogo e de 99, realmente nem devia rodar naquela epoca, mês que vem vai sair o Homeworld 2.

"Combining elements of real-time strategy and space combat, Homeworld™ delivers an evolutionary step in gameplay and technology. Cinematic-quality graphics, stunning special effects, brilliantly rendered ships and an innovative interface combine to create an immersive 3-D experience."

Com direito a trilha sonora do YES

Homeworld (The Ladder) 9:33

Nothing can take us far enough
Emotion... far enough together
As the light shines so bright
Bright enough to let us in

Nothing can bridge our souls.
Devotion... fast enough together
As the power proves you right
Right enough to let you begin

So many displaced among the future dreamers
Realised their doubles
Took a new step
A question of origin

Only in the recent past
Seeking for to realise
Skyward shone
Like beacons
A question of origin

Ten thousand millions free
To the westward light
The dreamers represent
This arc of peace

As the poets entranced
The anchor redeemed
Secrets of science
The history of the future
Was surely made

Just what keeps us so alive
Just what makes us realise
Our home
Is our world, our life
Home is our world

Nothing can take us far enough
Emotion... far enough together
As the light shines so bright
Bright enough to let us in

Nothing can bridge our souls
Devotion... fast enough together
As the power proves you right
Right enough to let you begin

Speak so fast to the prophets
Of the living
Looking for the signs
Spanning out the centuries
Search for truth

Ancient ones... they watch
And listen
Carry our wishes...
Took upon themselves to guide us
Through the endless skies

Just what keeps us so alive
Just what makes us realise
Our home
Is our world, our life
Our hope is our world, our life

I have seen the passion
That's in the hope that everyone
Will find their way into
The secret of
The home of your heart

Living within the vision
Within the power, beyond belief
We see that hate destroys the soul
Of anyone who tries to teach it

I have seen the dream
That's in your heart
That's in your eyes
To bring you closer to the one

It. s what keeps us so alive
It's what makes us realise
Our home is our world, our life
Just what keeps us so alive
Just what makes us realise
Our home
Is our world, our life
Home is our world, our life

Send, ascending to the secrets
All is pure and clear to resolve
Nothing can change us now
Send, ascending to the future
Nothing can ever change us now
We follow the sun
We follow the sun
We follow the sun

Truth is a simple place
Here for us all to see
Reach as it comes to you
As it comes to me
As I will always need you inside my heart

Peace is a word we teach
A place for us all to reach
Sing as it sings to you
As it sings to me
As I will always need you inside my heart

Linux - Geek stuff

Demais isso :)
como as coisas nao mudam


Subject: Ten Reasons Why Linux Sucks

View this article only
Newsgroups: comp.os.linux.advocacy
Date: 2000/05/16


1. Netscape as the primary gui browser. Need I say more? Netscape sux
even under Windows. IE 5.0 is light years ahead.

2. Email clients...Pine? Sendmail? Archaic kludges. If you want to
MANAGE and play with your email instead of read it Linux is for you.
You can sort catalog and score all that email on a bit by bit basis
under Linux. real great geek stuff. Reading email seems to be
secondary to playing with it.

3. Multimedia...Run antique versions of Real Player and not be able to
run Real Juke box (no Linux version). Run cheap Winamp Clones that
suck.

4. Graphics... Gimp? Name says it all. Even the trial versions of
Adobe included with scanners are more powerful.

5. Internet? Call your favorite ISP and tell them you run Linux...
Make sure and listen to the laughter at the end of the phone....

6. Supported printers? Damm better be a Postscript printer, linsux
seems to be the only folks using these printers these days....
Otherwise you will be burdened by some filter that a pimple faced geek
dreamed up that won't utilize 10 percent of your printers
capabilities.

7. Have a scanner? read the above. same thing applies....

8. Networking....Want to get the whole family pissed off at you? Take
away their internet conection sharing, standard under Win98se, and try
and set up the same deal under Linux...

Hint: Give up now, because others far more qualified than you have
already thrown in the towel.

You'll be reading How-To's till the cows come home...Or your wife
leaves you, whichever occurs first.

9. USB...Most devices barely, if at all, function.

10. Graphics...Take a look at the shitty font display of Netscrape
under Linux...Makes your eyes tear doesn't it.


That's only the surface. Linusx is a piece of garbage that needs to be
exposed for the crap that it is...

WANT TO RUN OUTDATED TEXT APPLICATIONS? TRY LINUX!!!!

Ever Wonder why there are very few 1.x version Linux applications?
Reason is they are too scared to commit to anything...Bunch of back
room hackers they are....

Pois é - Geek stuff

Infelizmente uma das coisas que gostaria de fazer nessa vida não vai mais ser possível

Air France closed a chapter in aviation history Friday as its last Concorde commercial flight from Paris left for New York.

Mais sobre o Concorde:

Concorde takes off at 220 knots (250mph) (compared with 165 knots for most subsonic aircraft). She cruises at around 1350mph - more than twice the speed of sound - and at an altitude of up to 60,000 ft (over 11 miles high). A typical London to New York crossing takes a little less than three and a half hours as opposed to about eight hours for a subsonic flight. Travelling Westwards, the five-hour time difference means Concorde effectively arrives before she has taken off. She travels "faster than the sun".

Why Nintendo Won't Grow Up

"Nintendo, which began 113 years ago as a manufacturer of playing cards, has been relying on Miyamoto's creativity since shortly after he joined the staff in 1977.

In a business where a one-hit wonder can be considered an unqualified success, Miyamoto has created not only a tall stack of videogame hits but a handful of global pop-culture franchises. Beginning in 1981 with the coin-op arcade game Donkey Kong, and continuing with Super Mario Bros. and The Legend of Zelda - one version of which Shift magazine called the "Citizen Kane of videogames" - Miyamoto has built Nintendo into a powerhouse. He's responsible for six of the top ten best-selling console games of all time."
