Inconvenienced Electrons

US Airways just rejected my lost bag claim.

It looks like US Airways has given up trying to find my bag. Now I get to try to figure out if they are liable for the loss. They have have a long list of things they exempt themselves from.

Does anyone still subscribe? I know it has been a while since I posted anything.

Howdy Internet,

I have upgraded my server to support IPv6, and added a AAAA record to wolfscall.com. I think it works, but please let me know if you have trouble.

Here is the dig capture:
$ dig aaaa wolfscall.com

Howdy,

I have updated the secure certificate. Now https://secure.wolfscall.com has a valid certificate for a year.

I really like the idea https because of all of the funny business some ISPs have been doing. It takes slot mor processing power to launch a man-in-the-middle attack on a https.

Does anyone have any thoughts on https?

I just started using the Google Authenticator, and I like it. I really wish everything had two factor security. (I am looking at you financial institutions.) My Starcraft 2 account is much more secure then my checking account. How much sense does that make?

I tried out google goggles. It is neat but not very useful. I used it to solve a sudoku puzzle.

Eve online has an amusing blog post.

On January 18, we will softly rub the hamsters in the server room till they fall asleep, prod them sweetly with foreign objects, and, if we’re lucky, they’ll wake up again with brand new content later that day. (If they don’t, we’ll have to place the largest order ever for very small coffins. Sadface).

Also, I got a new best AT&T wireless speed benchmark. Way to go, now I feel less dumb for not waiting for Verizon.
