Comment Oddly successful investment (Score 1) 43

I bought $1000USD of Doge back when it took 12 of them to make a single penny just to have fun with on IRC. We set up a doge wallet bot and used tipping in Doge as a way to encourage productive/constructive comments and contributions to our little channel, as well as educating people about crypto. I ended up giving away at least half of the Doges to various channel dwellers just for the fun of it. (Using random soaks & tips of 100 doge here & there.)

Fast forward to now it's around .13c per doge and the coin I so liberally threw around like confetti actually has some value. It feels really good to have contributed in a positive way to crypto-currency awareness and to see those contributions actually have value.

I still have quite a bit of Doge left and it has oddly turned out to be one of the most entertaining & enjoyable successful investments I've made.

TO THE MOON!

It's 2010 and I thought I'd delete all the old retarded stuff on here and say hi, I'm still alive, and I'm feeling much better now. ;)

Sony, Microsoft Begin Battle of Virtual Worlds 180

Slatterz writes "Sony and Microsoft are poised to do battle in virtual worlds. The console kids both announced Second Life-style virtual environments at the Tokyo Game Show today. Both games show striking similarities to Linden Lab's creation. Players are represented by avatars which live a virtual life — engaging in relationships, going about day-to-day business."

Actually, the log files refer to the logs sent by infected machines. These logs contain keylogged data that correspond to forms posted through IE and Firefox, as well as "datastore" information (credentials cached by IE, Outlook, and FFox).
This means that the 1.4Gb of data, while containing some less useful information, is much more valuable than you have indicated above...
Having said that, and realizing that this data is not just a mail/http log file, one can really start to grasp the true meaning of such a criminally operated server.
