I HAEV BEEN WAITING YEARS FOR THIS


AND FINALLY IT IS HERE


BUY THIS THING NOW

THE FAKE CHINESE HARRY POTTER BOOKS!!!

why did no one tell me about these. They're amazing!

The first book begins with the lines: "Harry doesn't know how long it will take to wash the sticky cream cake off his face.

"For a civilised young man it is disgusting to have dirt on any part of his body. He lies in the high-quality china bathtub, keeps wiping his face, and thinks about Dali's face, which is as fat as the bottom of Aunt Penny."edit: that's becasue started fake book 5

I am learning every day to speak good and so and I. you need not be worried; I have all the leaflets up my sleeve, and there's not turning back now. Five from the room to spread my wings, and I will do so at a moment's notice. I am not here to give you special treatment, only to delay with the body the fears of my eyes.

Computers don't assign passwords, people do.

Even when passwords are secure, people are still making them and remembering them, and it would do us well to remember that. I have come up with a mathematical model for guessing passwords that (while it will not help if a computer is assigning them) should reduce the amount of guesses in a non-dictionary attack by a great deal. Take these examples:

Case 1: alphanumeric, no symbols or uppercase characters. 10 characters.
* Normal brute force attack could require up to 36^10 guesses, or 3656158440062976. Too many!
* Human-expected modified brute force attack should only require 6^11 guesses, or 362797056. That's an awfully low number in comparison! I haven't written an algorithm, but my initial calculations on its effectiveness say the figure could be as low as 4.88^9 * 36, or about 56.5 million. That's smaller than some dictionary attacks!

Case 2: alphanumeric, with upper and lowercase letters and symbols. 10 characters.
* Normal brute force attack could require, we'll say 72^10, maybe more, guesses, or 3743906242624487424. Also way too many!
* Human-expected attack should only require 12^11 guesses, maybe as few as 10^9 * 36. That puts the number down to 743008370688. There are systems out there (not many, but a few) that can crack that in less than a second, so I'm told.

I don't know enough about current cryptography to know whether an implementation of such an algorithm would actually put many more passwords within reach. Is 700 billion guesses still too many for a 10-character password? Plus, it still won't guess them all, just the ones I suspect are significantly more likely, based on the passwords I have been assigned by IT crews, friends whose passwords I've known, my own habits. Not scientific. Are there already attacks of this kind not dictionary-based going on? I guess i should find out.

ALERT: Purdue police seek suspect in indecent exposure incident

Feb. 5, 2008

ALERT:
Purdue police are looking for a white male who was masturbating when he
entered an occupied booth at Big Ten Tan, Purdue West Shopping Center,
about 4 p.m. Thursday (2/5).

He is described as age 20-30, about 5'10", weighing 160 lbs., with brown
hair. He was wearing a long-sleeve crewneck shirt w/blue stripes, jeans and
a dark baseball cap. Additional information will be posted at
www.purdue.edu when it becomes available.



I think the real crime here was his outfit! In related news, I do not and refuse to own, wear or allow friends to wear any of the following:

* long-sleeved crewneck shirts
* clothing with stripes
* jeans
* baseball caps, or caps of nay kind (though I have my winter beanie for my poor ears)

So.

when i'm up late, i come back in the morning to check my google search history. It's always more bizarre than i think it's going to be, even when i take into account that it'll be more bizarre than i think it's going to be.

Here is, unedited, the last 10 google searches:

Joe had been explaining things in the meantime. He said it was again the beginning of the unfinished, the re-discovery of the familiar, the re-experience of the already suffered, the fresh-forgetting of the unremembered. Hell goes round and round. In shape it is circular and by nature it is interminable, repetitive and very nearly unbearable.

After years of saying I was going ot do it, I have finally started it.

The BIG BOOK of Mild Oaths:
a Dictionary of Minced Words

There is a need, a void, a gap in the english world of lexicography. No one has ever attempted a thourough treatment of the quaint, comely, mild oath. My aim is to provide the following:

Mild Oaths from as long as we've had them (600 years and more)
The word or phrase to which the oath refers
The date of first usage or printing
The origin (if available)

This will require some research. I have about 250 done so far, many with etymologies already. But I am far from done. Post me a few oaths - and I'll see what directions they lead.
