New Notwist has some real keepers, and has already shown up on HDTracks (although it's 24/44.1...waiwha?). Also previewed the new Beck, that had a couple of strong tracks, too. Also listened to a lot of jazz yesterday -- Miles, Bill Evans, etc. Will probably listen to more today, need to keep my blood pressure down. Damm stooped koworkrz.

Man.

More shnow here, too.

Oh, that's right. The better sale is when B&N puts them on sale (IIRC), I had forgotten that when I posted, and didn't bother double-checking, since I'm not getting anything. Sorry about that.

She so quirky. Me: London Grammar You know, on paper, alternative, electro, sparse, minimal...sounds like The XX. In reality? Sounds nothing like The XX. That said, I love 'em both.

Man, Ikea has been discontinuing a lot of cool things. Now this?!?!? I miss the lavender laptop desk.

I don't see the same issue on capitalone360.com. EDIT: And the stupid thing is, capitalone.com is probably fine, too. I mean, in order to exploit that, they'd have to plant a .js or .css on my computer or on my router, which they would have had to already have had access to...

Local show is freakin' sold out.

After 0:35 I was bored, so I hit pause. No I didn't.

Yeah, not a safe assumption. There's no such thing as no risk, there's only manageable risk.

I refuse to use capitalone.com on my computer until they fix it. I mean, that's the login page. I noticed this because I use noscript, and the only domain I should have to open up for that page is capitalone.com, yet for some reason (that I have been too lazy to track down), it also wants 127.0.0.1 and...whatever your router is. Feel free to double-check for yourselves, I would love to have outside corroboration. And if it is just me, I'd like to know that, too, for obvious reasons.

Not doing this to cause Jacob an aneurysm, just sharing with anyone who cares about the finer details of the flaw. It's really pretty horrendous. Any Freshman level programmer would immediately be able to see the flaw.

Me too. Can't trust fucking anyone any more. A week ago Sunday an automatic backup that I forgot I installed started up right in the middle of something. My performance dropped by 50%, and my first thought was that I'd been hacked. Also, capitalone.com home page has a fault in the embedded css pages, where they try to run scripts on 127.0.0.1 and the gateway.

I disagree, Jacob. Basically, SSL is broken. That's pretty major. Your fanboyism can only go so far. You can't try to brainwash a security flaw away. I don't know how far back the fault goes, but found this: ...sounds like the fault itself doesn't go back that far, Al.

I think more hacks go through wireless than through broadband/3g/4g/cdma/gsm/whatever-you-want-to-call-it. Also, were you around anyone? Someone feel free to correct me.

Yup, I go all the way back to SCTV, too. The world just got a little less comedic. I has a sad. RIP, you should be proud of the legacy you left behind.

I wouldn't. Basically, encryption is broken. Sure, that's not the same thing as VPN, but they can still break into your computer, piggyback, and they don't have to worry about a thing.
