Anyone up to decode this? I doubt it. And before you throw me some insults, I was bored…?

Picture Contest

OK, I will admit, the website seems a little bland. And to make it a little nicer, I am starting a contest. Anyone can enter, and here are the requirements.

• Must say “NerdsRule”
• Can not be focused towards one part of the website, most show all aspects
• Most be creative and original
• Most have one central idea
• Most be the users own work

The winner will have their picture posted on the front page of the website as the banner! The winner will also recieve a prize(to be determined). The size of the picture is also subject to change. No bigger than 1000×1000. Either way, the picture will be resized to suit the site. If you need the exact size, contact me. All entries will be featured in a special post, alongside the winner. However, their may not be a winner. If the NerdsRule admins deem all unworthy, we will try again another time. Good luck!

UPDATE: Apologies for misguiding information. This site does not support banners, therefore, we will have a special section to showcase the pictures. Good Luck!

PS – All entries are due no later than May 3rd. NO EXCEPTIONS!!!

Hacking Democracy

This cautionary documentary exposes the vulnerability of computers – which count approximately 80% of America’s votes in county, state and federal elections – suggesting that if our votes aren’t safe, then our democracy isn’t safe either.
The documentary exposes the dangers of voting machines used during America’s mid term and presidential elections. Electronic voting machines count approximately 90% of America’s votes in county, state and federal elections. The technology is also increasingly being used across the world, including in Canada, the United Kingdom, Europe and Latin America. Filmed over three years this exposé follows the investigations of a team of citizen activists and hackers as they take on the electronic voting industry, targeting the Diebold corporation.

“Hacking Democracy” uncovers incendiary evidence from the trash cans of Texas to the ballot boxes of Ohio, exposing secrecy, votes in the trash, hackable software and election officials rigging the presidential recount.

Ultimately proving our votes can be stolen without a trace “Hacking Democracy” culminates in the famous ‘Hursti Hack’; a duel between the Diebold voting machines and a computer hacker from Finland – with America’s democracy at stake.
The two Ohio election staff who feature in “Hacking Democracy” were sentenced on March 13th 2007 for rigging the 2004 presidential recount. Incriminating footage from the documentary was used in their court case as evidence.

Here are the links for the movie, in order, there are nine of them.

Inspired by my latest post, I made this. Enjoy!

Bits and Bytes

OK, assuming most of you are computer illiterate, I will begin to attempt to teach you about file sizes, and their respective names, than give a short quiz, and the winner gets a custom program. All answers to this quiz should be emailed to me, with the title QUIZ ANSWERS! and your name. I will announce the winners shortly after. Let’s begin!

A byte is the smallest form of storage. The basis for all other forms of storage.

A killabyte is the next one up. Almost 1,000 bytes.

A megabyte is 1,000 killabytes.

A gigabyte is 1,000 megabytes.

And for all you sneaky people out there that want to know, yes, a yottabyte is the biggest form of measurement. It is represented as 2 ^ 80 power.

OK, and now for the questions.

1) If a file is 243 MB, and the hard drive can hold 320 GB max, how much percentage of the hard drive is left over after the 243 MB are added on?

2) If a computer sends files at a rate of 56KB/per second, and the file is 443 MB, how long will it take to transfer?

3) How much memory is left on a 75BG hard drive after the following programs are installed?

-A 6KB notepad file

-A 4GB Game stolen off a torrent (jeez)

-243MB worth of Word Documents

-16GB of video

-472MB of music

-2.6GB of illegally downloaded music

-3GB of porn (holy crap)

Good luck everyone!

My First Official Post: Hello, World HTML

My last post wasn’t technically a post, more or less an “edit of my page.” So, after much thought put into what I should talk about, here it is, my first official post. I will show everyone here the basics of writing in HTML. To view this locally on your computer, save it as .html or .htm. ENJOY!

You need the following in almost all HTML documents.

<html>

<body>

</body>

</html>

In between the body tags, type <p> Hello, World </p>. Hello World is the first program written in any language, and my next post will be on doing Hello World in PerL. So, test this out and good luck. Any questions, leave them below.
