drooly splurge

Voila, the 70-200mm f/4L IS USM. *grinz*
It made my arms tired, zzz, and it is hard to fit into bags when mounted. hmm. Look forward to more fun photos soon. Look at the funky aperture size, and the puny-ness of my camera body. A new 1D-mark IV with ISO 102,000  please.

botnet

botnets are worrying me. the security experts are quite helpless against some very well organized botnet groups. the bad guys infect common computers and then later command them to do … things. 
so all those weird suspected ‘virus’ed software that seems to work fine might just be a botnet software. such that it doesnt kill your [...]
