A Theory

Wouldn't it be nice to get free Xbox Live time and Wii Points? Unfortunately, there is no way around this system as of now. However, I've been thinking.

Both companies sell points/time through a company called "Fastcard". Fastcard uses 10 digit codes on the card as a PIN. The PIN is entered when you redeem what's on the card. The simple answer is to create a keygen that creates a valid PIN. The only problem is that the pin is activated at the register. The obvious solution to that is to get a register/store computer or emulate one and connect it to the network that validates the keys. Easier said than done.

I'm just spit balling an idea, here. Is there anyone with more info on the subject?

Better Than Cocaine

Well, I have a new addiction. It's a flight/physics simulator called Kerbal Space Program. The "goal" of the game is to get a race little green people into space by building ships. You learn mostly by trial and error, and building consists mostly of strapping parts together and hoping it doesn't blow up.

Currently, it's in alpha and free to download, but it is in heavy development. The team is taking donations. Any donation over $7.00 USD gets you an automatic preorder of the future game and all of it's updates.

You can check out the project here.

Snowcrash

Taken from a popular book by Neal Stephenson, snowcrash is a way of sending files through the internet uncensored. This is done by taking the raw data of the file and interpreting it as an image. This lets you send any type of file, and only the receiver will know what it is because it looks like static.

The tutorial is a little long winded and hard to explain so I'll just post the image that explains it.
