Intermission

We take time out of our regularly scheduled programming to denounce and detract from all the bloggers out there who are using Wordpress. Get a real CMS. It’s not that hard, kids. If you have anything worth saying, you might as well deliver your message properly, you lazy pieces of shit. No one cares much about what you have to say when you’re using the livejournal of the blogging world.

Good job, kids. You’ve negated your message entirely via it’s very own delivery method.

Hiatus

I have business to tend to. Things are coming at me rapidly, and I’m already overburdened with tasks and no time in which to deal with them. Ditching this blog, facebook, and the internet on the whole, is pretty much all I can do to squeeze the little time I have and make it work for me. So that’s what I’ll be doing. Can’t keep it up forever, sometimes life just gets in the way of hobbies. It happens.

Get a Life

Movement 2012

Hey losers, you going? Have you even been to any sort of concert or festival? No, the local Renaissance Festival doesn’t count, you faggot.

Man, people accuse me of not having a life, and yet the only breaks they get from IRC or twitter are 12 hour windows they fill with sleep. Infosec seems filled to the brim with losers who bitch, gripe, “troll”, and basically use the infosec community as a vent to relieve the pressure of having no real life to tend to. Congratulations, you have an e-girlfriend. Or some nasty bitch you used to work with at 7-11. Or some husband who has no idea what you actually do online (which really doesn’t constitute much). I have a life outside the internet, something you retards ought to “research” more.

th3j35t3r: Was it really that tough to figure out?

I’ve been watching the tweets of @cubespherical with a sense of irony in the back of my mind. The story is so far fetched, the monetary goal beyond ridiculous. I won’t present a whole lot of reference material in this post, it’s merely an insomniac’s rant. However, read through and you just might agree with a few of my points.

First and foremost, if you’ve kept up with @th3j35t3r’s (now defunct) twitter account, you’ve seen “a certain writing style”. What’s more, if you’ve used IRC at all in places he has been known to lurk, you’ve seen a few writing styles. I’ve seen jester’s writing style jump from proper capitalization to apropos internet junkie shorthand. Either this guy has MPD, or he’s a fucking SE master. Then again, there is a more likely explanation, one that’s been put forth on the internet but actually disregarded. It’s quite likely jester does have MPD, in that the identity is/was comprised of several individuals. The identity amounted to no more than a puppet of several people with a common goal.

Disconnect From P2P if VPN Drops

If you’re using Windows 7 as a host OS, there’s a chance you may need to occasionally use VPN to cover your ass. VPN services are excellent, but it’s an open-ended technology with a wide variety of possibilities. One of those unfortunate possibilities is that internet transfers can be resumed if your VPN connection is dropped for whatever reason. Well, kids, I’ve got a solution for you- a Windows 7 native solution at that. I’ll use uTorrent as my example.

4chan Grabber

It’s that time again. Time for me to try to sleep and fail miserably. But this time I only have a three hour window in which to make the attempt, so I’m considering giving up on the effort entirely. Instead, I’ll just post a bash script that downloads 4chan thread content effortlessly. It’s pretty damn handy, if you think about it. Just execute as such: 4chan <url>. It was based on this script and modified to use xargs and concurrent downloads. Without further ado, a quick hack of a quick hack.

Scarcity

For the next five days, I’m going to be quite scarce. Even moreso than is typical of me. I’m writing this as a stub. A placeholder to keep this rotten corner of the Inter-ass warm whilst I’m away. I’ve been busy as hell. Real life™ has kept me busier than most. Auto repairs, financial affairs, rather typical and mundane things that a lot of slackers won’t have to worry about.
