    Wrote a telnet chat server

    I was a wee bit bored this morning, so I created a telnet chat server. You can grab the source code for the telnet chat server here. It’s in Python 2.x.

    Once you have it running, clients can connect in via port 24800. The default password is SPIROU.

  • Rice Tea name change: it’s now “Botnet”

    Rice Tea name change: it’s now “Botnet”

    Well, I’m satisfied with the script in its current form. You can download it from here if you want a peek. Feedback is welcome.

    In other news, I’m calling the movie “Botnet” instead of “Rice Tea.” It’s not a terribly original name, but it conveys the subject matter better than a type of tea ever did. “Digital Losers”, as was suggested by someone would have been nice as a title, but I removed all references to that term in the film script to simplify the plot.

  • The crazy woman again!

    The crazy woman again!

    Last post, I talked about how I ran into a crazy woman who told me “If I saw my son kissing a gay man, I’d cut off both their heads and hope that they’d hit the ground at the same time.”

    Well I ran into her again! She had more words for us. So this time, I took a picture of her.

  • The crazy woman!

    The crazy woman!

    I went to Best Buy today to buy some hard drives for the Rice Tea movie. The way back by bus involves a stop over at the local Elmvale bus station.

    While waiting at the station, my boyfriend was resting his head on my shoulders. He then wandered off to check the schedules. At this point, a crazy woman approached me. She said, and I quote,

    If I saw my son kissing a gay man, I’d cut off both their heads [woman does slicing motion] and hope that they’d hit the ground at the same time.

    Jay overhears this and comes over. I reply “I don’t care because I love him.” The crazy woman wanders off. We hadn’t kissed, but if there was any time to do it, this was it. I look at my boyfriend – “kiss?” And he gives me a great smooch. The woman is appalled and makes a grunting sound that would make Chewbaca proud. I then yell out “We can French kiss if you want!”

    Artist’s Impression of Said Crazy Woman

    There were young people by us, no older than 18. They laughed. So did we. The woman proceeded to tell the strangers around her about how horrible people we were. No point in getting upset over her, she evidently had some screws missing.

    I just designed the emblem for Confcon 2010 for PhreakerD7 and ThoughtPhreaker. Hopefully it’ll be to their liking.
