Got FireBugs?
Tags: Tech
Firebug integrates with Firefox to put a wealth of web development tools at your fingertips while you browse. You can edit, debug, and monitor CSS, HTML, and JavaScript live in any web page.
Perhaps this will help me to get my site back into a functional state. (perhaps I really should start reading up on stylesheets)

How secure is the new RFID passport?
Tags: Tech
According to this
guardian article, the encryption of the data on the RFID equipped passports is rather trivial.
According to the article successfull attempts at reading the data remotely were made up to 30 cm away.
Could somebody please tell me how this is making the world safer from terrorists?

Integrate your cell phone with your desktop
Tags: Tech
This tool will notify you of incoming calls on your cell phone, mute the volume of iTunes etc, including proximity detection.
So if you're within Bluetooth range of your Mac, and there's an incoming call on your mobile BluePhoneElite will notify you, and mute/lower the volume of iTunes.
Something like that with the ability to use the computer as a speaker phone as well would be nice, especially if available on Linux/Windows (I do not own a Mac).

What started out as an idea for securing RFID systems has grown into a multi-university and industry collaborative effort, involving 10 people (4 full-time), including the well known professor Andrew Tanenbaum.

WPA weakness explained
Tags: Tech
Stumbled across this article explaining weaknesses in the Wireless Protected Access protocol.
Guess I should at least setup a radius server at home then (or move my wireless to the DMZ).
Anyone know if it's possible to have RADIUS pull it's authentication data from a Domino server? (LDAP)

Not enough diskspace to delete files
Tags: Tech
Windows 2003 Server came up with this helpfull error message today when I was trying to remove a folder that contained about 4GB worth of data:
To be honest, the folder was located on a different volume that was mounted as a directory in the root of the system drive, which had 2.5 GB free space available.
So as Windows tried to move the files into the recycle bin it ran into this lack of available space.

Hurdles and Triggers for the Deployment of IPv6 Technology
Tags: Tech
The European Commission Information Society and Media has launched an online consultation about the (lack of) deployment of IPv6 thechnology in Europe.
After a decade of intense developments and investments, IPv6 is not widely deployed yet, especially in Europe. This Consultation is aiming at identifying the potential triggers for deploying IPv6 as well as the hurdles limiting its adoption.

Pandora might be just what you're looking for.
Enter the name of your favorite artist and you're set.
For the time being it's free but they'll be adding commercials to the free service with the option to buy a subscription to get rid of the ads.
So far they've provided me with a decent selection of music to listen to and I'm actually considering to buy into it once they start adding commercials to the free service.

IRC only for script kiddies and other scum?
Tags: Tech
Not so, according to this article .
An irc channel that I've always found to be usefull when it comes to Lotus Notes administration and development is #notes on EFnet.
It's been around since '97/'98 (I actually started it - and met my wife there)
