Rants & Raves

March 19, 2001  The night the lights went out on the Screen Savers.

Tonight, TSS fell victim to California's rolling blackouts. Apparently they weren't able to recover sufficiently to re-air the show in the later repeat time slots, and they showed a previous episode instead. I knew there was a reason my religious taping of the live airing, even though I can catch the repeat if I'm late getting home. I hope TSS will put together some of the funnier bits and put the video up on the website. I enjoyed the interview with Jim Reavis of SecurityPortal, where he commented about hackers being highly intelligent, but with no moral foundation because they were perhaps neglected by their parents and instead raised by their computers. I've been fascinated by the psychology of hackers because most criminal destructive behavior is committed by dumber, less-educated people. But this is not the case with destructive hackers.
