Well, don't want to get SS paranoid so I wont repost them here nor will I link to the nearly hundreds of sites now posting the DCMA-attacked key for HD DVD breaking here. It seemed to stir up a massive rebellion at Digg and other sites (you can still read the after-effects, although I doubt mainstream press will cover it).
However, I will say Khris, if you're still looking for a new avitar, there is a cool color pattern you may be interested in (Digg search title "favorite colors"). Also, here is a riddle that someone posted, see how many you can answer correctly.
1. Directory assistance service number in Moscow, Russia...?
2. A function key on a computer keyboard following F8 and preceding F10...?
3. Yao Ming's (Houston Rockets) jersey number...?
4. Scientific symbol for molecular oxygen also known as dioxygen...?
5. Number of New York state route also known as a Rear Mountain-Beacon Highway...?
6. Number of U.S. interstate that runs from Iowa to Ohio...?
7. Non immigrant visa allowing Australian citizens to live and work in the United States...?
8. Number of vertebrate animal form, required for all research Involving vertebrate animals that is conducted in a regulated research institution...?
9. The eight-sided die is also known as...?
10. The international direct dialing code for Switzerland...?
11. The number of consecutive games in which Joe DiMaggio had a base hit in 1941 (still a record)...?
12. The fifth generation of the Chevrolet Corvette sports car is known as...?
13. NBA playoff record for most points scored in a playoff game, achieved by Michael Jordan in 1986, is...?
14. The number of men who signed the United States declaration of Independence in 1776...?
15. Atomic number of radium...?
16. lATA code for Centralwings Airline...?
(I'd give credit to the author but the original seems hard to find. I would recommend a search for 'best riddle you will hear today, period' if you want to track it down. Also, many a google search (they got dcma'd too) will help resolve the answer if not tell you what all the fuss is about.)
