Out of the Blue

There's a healthy thread on Slashdot about the story from yesterday about the .jpeg virus with very few of the responses expressing anything less than a healthy skepticism about the whole affair. The most common theme (besides how if everyone used Linux, computer viruses, and possibly human ones, would cease to exist) is that the virus protection manufacturers intentionally promote such stories to invoke F.U.D. about viruses, and therefore ensure sales. I'd like to say from what I know about the corporate mentality that this was impossible, but of course it's impossible to say that.

Play Time: Manson versus Tyson on Maxim Online. "If it weren't for the gold tooth, you'd have trouble telling them apart." Thanks Chris Johnson.

Weird Science: 'Killer' bees make killer coffee. Thanks zombie69.
Follow-up: NOAA Ocean Explorer Sound in the Sea. The audio from yesterday's "deep sea monster." Thanks Gudlyf.
