Thousands Rally in D.C. Against Iraq War


Tens of thousands rallied in the capital Saturday in an emphatic dissent against preparations for war in Iraq, voicing a cry — "No blood for oil" — heard in demonstrations around the world. A rally in the shadows of Washington's political and military institutions anchored dozens of smaller protests throughout Asia, Europe, the Middle East and the United States.

In Washington, police said 30,000 marched through the streets, part of a much larger crowd that packed the west end of the National Mall and spilled on to the Capitol grounds.

A brief history of time


This is the real timeline of the Earth's history. A timeline of time itself. Completely falsified of course. The dates are undoubtedly wrong. And there are dates that are supposed to be closely fictitiously factual, but I don't care, so neither should you. Whatever. Enjoy anyway.

It all begins waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back when

Leeter Than Jesus cracks Microsoft's Anti-MP3 technology


Goddamit! When will they learn? You can't beat Mp3's! Its takes 1 person to rip them and share them on Kazaa before the protection is dead. Why don't they just accept it, and spend those insane amounts of money on charities [or me] , dammit?!

Credit Card-Size Hard Drive Can Hold 5GB


Cheap, thin, flexible StorCard expected to become available this year. Take a look at one of those credit cards in your wallet. That's the exact size and thickness of an upcoming, revolutionary removable storage device called StorCard.

Created by a company with the same name, StorCard can contain from 100MB to more than 5GB of data on a plastic card. At first glance, it looks like a credit card, and even has a magnetic strip like a credit card, for potential use in standard credit card readers.

The hard disk data, however, is accessed on a tiny spinning disk inside the thin card.
