Pretty nifty bank notes we got now.

Much better then the plain jane american ones.

HTTP clock:

"58 minutes later its ability to tell time becomes unavailable, and, after 60 seconds of failed attempts, shoots itself in the face."

Is anyone else a little bit disappointed that the mustache is not in raised ink as well?

My money has holes in it!!



Pretty cool.

Best quote ever!:

So mentally I'm still under the age of 25.

See Al, you've totally breezed by the biggest problem: inventing a dessert called Tau.

Umm Par... How many people reading this board could actually go thru the math for Tau day and actually understand it?

I barely passed calculus III in university. Whoosh! I say!

And Canuck fans wonder why no one likes them?

Canucks fans party like it's 1994. Fucking embarrassing.

The Doctor at the royal wedding = pure awesome.
I'm sure that has to be photoshopped, but still pretty cool.

In other news: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2003393/How-Citigroup-hackers-broke-door-using-banks-website.html

This article calls them "hackers", and quotes a "security expert" calling it a "browser vulnerability" that would have been "hard to prepare for". The vulnerability in question? Logging into the website and changing the account number in the URL. Damn those browsers and their security flaws, now citigroup looks stupid because of the insecure ability to change the URL on the client side...

I'm know I don't know everything there is to know about security, but damn, that's about the most insanely stupid thing I've ever seen - for a banking site even.

And I'd love to know who that "security expert" is that considered this "hard to prepare for".
