Since David posted a video a while back I might as well post this one here.
This game is from January 18th, shot on a Flip Mino on a tripod as I sat slightly to the side. I was wearing headphones so no sound except my occasional grunts and curses. I edited out the bit at the end where I stood up too quickly and knocked over the tripod. 🙂
Oh, and I can’t believe I missed that guy lying on the ground. I stunned him but thought someone else had finished off the job as he wasn’t moving.
Jonathan Ross using Natal. Can’t see myself jumping around in my small home office like that.
Well, this is a surprise. One of my .ie email addresses got a very targeted phishing email. It was so specific that it was actually written in Irish! It wasn’t directed at me, but at a list owner address at linux.ie.
I wonder if the spammers know how many Irish people could actually read their email easily? It’d certainly be easier for most people to read in English.

I suppose it was bound to happen now that Google translates text into Irish. Well done to Gmail for marking it as spam!
Wow, 17-4 on Derail. What a fluke 🙂
Ok, so Commando gives you a longer lunge when knifing. I wasn’t sure just how far it was until I read this post and saw this video and the other one David linked to. Amazing.
Should it be removed? Hell no. Equip yourself with a shotgun and if you’re in close quarters use that instead of your primary weapon. Either that or don’t stay in the one corner.
Oh, if you’re interested in knifing, check out ONLYUSEmeBLADE.
Great MW2 poetry!
A version of Go may be coming to XBLA! I remember playing a version of Go on my Palm IIIx, but haven’t found a decent game of it on any of my Nokia phones.
I play games and I blog. Currently addicted to Modern Warfare 2 on Xbox Live.
This is weird, a huge number of POST requests started to hit the Shite Drivers website a few days ago. The requests came from lots of IP addresses and all requests went to the non existent /bc/123kah.php
The payload was an array that looked like this:
Array
(
[showed] =>
[clicked] =>
[version] => 2.6.2.4
[id] => c3b342beb6ad7adf39499e7a38f93c09f681611d
[tm] => 1266855758
[aff_id] => gooochi
[net_id] => gooochi
[safe] => 1
[exceed] => 2505,2507,2582,2597,2602
)
So I presume it’s the Gooochi malware referenced in this search for that word. Strange that the infected PCs hit my server though.
The traffic was never overwhelming but I decided to put a stop to it with a simple
in a .htaccess file. Much better than having WordPress serve up a 404 page.deny from all
I mentioned the 123kah.php file on Twitter and I’m not the only one to see these odd requests. I guess even malware has bugs! (which is all the more reason to keep your anti-virus software up to date if you use Windows)
Sometime last year I noticed that links to my blog on Feedburner had attracted a few extra parameters. A simple link to a post became this huge monstrosity:
http://ocaoimh.ie/exploit-scanner-095/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:+HolyShmoly+(Holy+Shmoly!)&
utm_content=Google+Reader
It’s a marketing thing right? It’s all useful information but I don’t really care about it, have never used it and don’t like my URLs getting mangled. It annoys me for two reasons:
So I added a new option to Supercache to redirect the url and get rid of the utm_source bloat.
If you want to give it a go, grab the development version of the plugin and upgrade.
Oh, and if someone has decent docs on utm_source and it’s friends I’d love to read it. Google didn’t return much when I went looking.
