I was at that concert. It was fucking awful

Dafuq?

Some blokes used controller input to feed code into the memory of a regular Super Mario World, then managed to glitch the game into running the code, thereby transforming Super Mario into Snake/Pong.

Thanks, man.

There's an ongoing trial, Newegg vs patent troll TQP, who try to blackmail corporations by claiming a patent on SSL+RC4.

Yesterday, Whit Diffie himself was called upon as an expert witness. Check out this dialogue between him (D) and Newegg's lawyer Alan Albright (A):

A: "We've heard a good bit in this courtroom about public key encryption. Are you familiar with that?"

D: "Yes, I am."

A: "And how is it that you're familiar with public key encryption?"

D: "I invented it."

Case closed, bitches!

(Not really, but it's an uppercut that TQP will not recover from, unless they supply the jury with enough blow to wipe out their entire memory.)

Meet the USS Zumwalt, a next-gen ship run by Linux and captained by James Kirk.

If a hacker named Khan assumes control over the ship, do you think it'll mark the emergence of Cthulhu?
