I tried creating a life feed using Yahoo Pipes, but its a bit of a PITA because of the varying quality of the feeds produced by these applications (i.e. broken or at least suspect date handling, bad use of GUIDs, etc., and dont get me started on how the various deficiencies in RSS contribute to this mess) and the fun and games involved...http://www.freeke.org/ffg/tech/computers/internet/friendfeed.html Bonjour Does The Right Thing When VPNed- February 26, 2008 I&8217;m working from home today, which means I&8217;m connected into work via the corporate PPTP VPN.

I just wanted an excuse to use Panic&8217;s fancy image zoomer. If you&8217;re reading this in the feed it won&8217;t work, of course. posted to techcomputerswebhttp://www.freeke.org/ffg/tech/computers/web/zoomin.html UDP 26185- February 1, 2008 I&8217;ve been seeing a ton of probes on UDP port 26185. Google has been unhelpful. Anyone else seeing these or know what they mean addendum: It looks like the UDP probes are sometimes paired with a TCP probe, like so: Uploaded with plasq&8217;s Skitch! posted to techcomputersinternetsecurityhttp://www.freeke.org/ffg/tech/computers/internet/security/UDP_26185.html |
