Gmail

I have just been invited to the beta google Gmail program. They were just handing out those accounts to avid bloggers on blogger.com. So let me give it a whirl. send me your emails to abdulla[dot]faraz[at]gmail[dot]com. which also means just send me very very large files inorder for me to be the first, to fill up the 1GB limit. Ack. someone should have done that already. My problems with it so far. Opera not supported!!!! Other various cool stuff ? Keyboard shortcuts. Yay!

They ...

Today I recieved this email from my brother.
i want to know what u r planning.
a month ago i heard from police that u brought the parcel of leaflets for mdp. they told me that you r very much involved in mdp. and you may get arrested if so. and they asked me why you r doing that.
last week they told me that you r still involved and you r sleeping in the office of mdp.
a few days later they told me to tell you that they know all about it. also that you r maintaining computers and servers for them.
i wonder who the source is?
i think you still got the chance.

My reply
I know that "They" are playing a psychological game with you. So I've decided not to tell anybody what I'm planning to do

It's Final...

That's it. It's final. I know how my home would look like. It's perfect. Take a look. It's called the Loftcube Project. And costs about Rf 750,000 and a rooftop(and one limb). Designed by Studio Aisslinger.

Windows ReTarded©

It's seems like a horrible day for Microsoft. First Microsoft releases this security bulletin for bugs in the SSL library and Windows Local Security Authority Subsystem (LSASS). SSL is used in almost all business transactions. This bug can be used in DoS attacks, and if PCT is enabled on the system, it could be used for a remote compromise of the system. The LSASS bug can also be used for remote compromise of the machine. A further 12 bugs are listed in the bulletin, of which 6 can be exploited remotely. Two bugs in the Windows kernel has also been discovered by eEye, which could escalate priviledges to the highest possible local priviledge. Their webpage lists a further 6 bugs(including the LSASS bug) which were discovered back in September 2003, and was not fixed by Microsoft for over 200 days. I am looking forward for working exploits as early as tomorrow.

update ( 4:58am ) : Found a working DoS exploit already.

.. and so I continue my journey away from the darkness!

There came a night that flew me to the unrecoverable dreams while I was in the land of gossip and dust. 26th march 2004, 0000 hrs there was a power failure from the whole atoll! I rushed to the roof top! That was such a beauty! Something I've always wanted to experience. Something I've seen in its feel only when I was a child. No cold black clouds! Endless sky! Endless white spots flashing all over the pitch black sky! "Man, this IS heavenly!" I thought. Here is the beautiful part! I saw a shooting star!

I was lying on roof top without distractions! Heavenly bodies are so mysterious. There is something cryptic about them. They reminded me of the lost dreams!

Death of a Rock God

Ten years ago, today Kurt Cobain died. I remember the exact moment when I heard the news of his death. The title said "Rock God Dies".

He is remembered, will be remembered.



"Id rather be hated for who I am than Loved for who I am not "
Kurt Cobain (1967 - 1994)

Cities And Thrones And Powers

Cities and Thrones and Powers,
Stand in Time's eye,
Almost as long as flowers,
Which daily die:
But, as new buds put forth,
To glad new men,
Out of the spent and unconsidered Earth,
The Cities rise again.


This season's Daffodil,
She never hears
What change, what chance, what chill,
Cut down last year's:
But with bold countenance,
And knowledge small,
Esteems her seven days' continuance
To be perpetual.


So time that is o'er kind,
To all that be,
Ordains us e'en as blind,
As bold as she:
That in our very death,
And burial sure,
Shadow to shadow, well-persuaded, saith,
"See how our works endure!"

Innocence: Kokaku kidotai

Mamoru Oshii has released a sequel to Ghost in the Shell called Innocence, in Japan, last month. The english version, distributed by Dreamworks, will be released to the rest of world in Fall 2004.

After watching a string of bad sci-fi movies (except Robot Stories), I welcome and anticipate this.

Official site http://www.innocence-movie.jp

Beyond...

the warm womb, brilliant, illuminated, open and warm
intricate designs, formed by the flux, where electrons pour
melodies of a harp, incubated until my final transform
into the wired world I rise, to explore galore

I live, I live, the eternal life.

Inspired by Robot Stories

King of Chaos

Have been playing King of Chaos. It's not so bad, reminds me of the time I used to play something like this back in 2000.
