Liveblogging is silly … but live updating of Facebook status? GOLD. Hot Tramp is listening to KQED, because KPBS won’t stream on a Mac. STOP SHILLING FOR CASH, KQED. 5:54pm Hot Tramp is impressed that Lehrer led with the financial crisis. 6:04pm Hot Tramp is tired of hearing the Wall Street/Main Street line. Ugh. 6:07pm Hot Tramp can’t believe that McCain is seriously trying to ask us to believe that he gives a rat’s ass ...

It's occurred to me lately that I'm not very good at ending a conversation.My boyfriend -- one of my boyfriends, I guess I should say -- called me last night. He told me about his day. We ranted at each other about politics. The weekend's coming up, so we made plans to get together. Then the conversation, as conversations are wont to do, petered out. I was staring blankly up at the ceiling, wiggling my ...

“Here are my options as I see them: 1. Write a note saying that I have coated both of my sparkplugs in rat poison and tape it to my bike at night. You can thank Tim for that one, it was his idea. 2. Don’t write a note, but just coat both sparkplugs in rat poison. This is probably closer to a punishment that would fit your despicable crime. I’m sure this is super illegal ...

Windows only: Microsofts' Image Composite Editor is a free application for stitching several pictures together into one panoramic photograph. We've already shown you how to stitch photos into panoramas with free software or with Photoshop's Photomerge tool, but the dedicated Image Composite Editor won't cost you a dime, is dead simple to use, and works really well. I tested its chops with a quick panorama of my (messy) desk, and it stitched everything together quickly, ...

As the web becomes more and more pervasive, so do web-based security vulnerabilities. I talked a little bit about the most common web vulnerability, cross-site scripting, in Protecting Your Cookies: HttpOnly. Although XSS is incredibly dangerous, it's a fairly straightforward exploit to understand. Do not allow users to insert arbitrary HTML on your site. The name of the XSS game is sanitizing user input. If you stick to a whitelist based approach -- only allow ...

Thrift store hunting isn't just a pastime. It can be an honest living. Finding and flipping used goods for profit has been the main source of income for one of my friends for more than a decade. Though picking through racks of clothing, bins of electronics and boxes of watches -- or trolling eBay and Craigslist -- can be fruitful, another weekend-thrifter friend also swears by Goodwill's online auction site, which features 18,000 items daily ...
