Live from Austin!

Porn star Asia Carrera has posted some pictures of herself in Doc Martens and shorts, disassembling and reassembling PCs in her (rather untidy) computer room, and snuggling her cats. For the record, she also played Carnegie Hall at 13, is a member of MENSA with an IQ of 156, knows UNIX, and does her own Photoshop work. Oh, plus she’s made over 250 hardcore porn movies…

(The link probably isn’t safe for work, of course. The pictures on that page are all innocent stuff, but the URL will set off alarm bells.)

I guess I’m just amused by the idea of UNIX hackers as porn stars. Also, sara can attest to the fact that I find ability to master a command line to be a definite turn-on.

The US Department of Defense has admitted that it held open-air tests of biological and chemical weapons in four states during 1965-67. Chemicals used included VX and sarin nerve toxins.

Makes you wonder why we even need Al Qaeda.

A Korean man has died after spending 86 hours playing computer games non-stop.

I may have to revise my plans for the upcoming long weekend…
