Google and Python

Google has hired the creator of Python , Guido van Rossum. This has not yet been officially announched by google, but according to this news groups postings, its true.

It is a cool move, since google already is using python for its projects, including the new versions of blogger.

How can you tell if your boss is a "BAD BOSS"?

Does your boss:

• Ignore "people" issues such as support, development and conflict?
• Criticize, downplay or ignore your ideas; or take credit for your work?
• Lack necessary knowledge, skills or experience in your field or profession?
• Ignore serious problems or make them worse?
• Measure results based only on things that can be easily counted?
• Hire unqualified employees, vendors or consultants?
• Do the nitty-gritty, detailed work in your department?
• Insult, taunt, harass, or threaten you; or snap, shout or curse at you?
• Expect you to agree with her or his ideas, or give you incorrect information?
• Gossip with your peers or encourage infighting and internal competition?
• Use company assets inappropriately or unethically?
• Work against company goals and programs while pretending to support them?
• Appear to have different personalities on different day

If you report to a bad boss, know these four things:

1. Some bosses want to be bad and they're not going to change.
2. Bad bosses know how to get away with what they're doing.
3. You're not imagining it--it is really happening.
4. You are not the problem.

An Orgy of Linu(x)

Is it the looks or the feel? What ever it is; its simply very cool. From a handful of linu(x) distros like Slack, debian and redhat we have evolved to new stage. Now we get so many of them. Most of them are oriented to specific user(s) or applications. I knew we had load of them; at a point in time I had the count too. But later on I lost it, now today I was shocked to see this page.

One PC two users?

Well; its nothing new multiuser and multitasking, bla bla stuff. We all have seen and experienced it but this is something new for me and thought worth a look at. The concept is to have two users using single PC at the same time. Not at a server level; or remotely connected, but simply using two different desktop environments and applications, etc on one PC. This has been done at various levels using various methods; but this one seem to be cheap and fun.

So if at home; or office you need to share a machine,now all you need is a dual-head video card and an extra USB keyboard and mouse. This is done using a software called Desktop Multiplier and runs on the Linux OS. If the PC is powerful enough it can even support more then 2. Extra hardware needed will be USB hubs or PCI cards.

This will be real good application to be used at a place like a school or at a cyber cafe'.

Time for the big break

We have been having a good year; I’d say 2005 was one of the best years so far. Things have been smooth and I had fun and good times. Learned so much; achieved most of my goals. This year I would consider to be a year of experience and learning. Getting to know new people; learning new things and experimenting and most of all got to know the real dark side of life. Things which should be digested, not ignored. Learning to fight back, and stand up and ignoring bull shit! Don’t let those get in your way. Drive and feel the wind, who cares; as long as you enjoy the ride. Let the cars hiss by and horn! Even if they spray water at you; at that speed you’d dry up in no time.

I am off in a few days for my annual leave. I guess I’d have a good new year celebration . We did plan for a trip; all those fun party nights. Sad thing is not all got to join the trip. Some of my friends will join me and we plan to have a good time. I am really looking forward for the year end break. End of so much and I hope start of better things. truly a journey of self experience.

The bad snake

"Python programming: be the snake, eat the ruby, and throw the perls to the C" this was the topic of today when I went into the #python channel on undernet. I totally support this.

I've been into python for some time now; Perl is ok and cool; though most will say its the thingy. Well for me I think it does not matter what language you use. Its getting it done, and how fast you get it done, and the maintainability. As for my work; I often have to write small scripts to do odd jobs on the systems; and I found Python to be a life saver. Its easy to develop in Python, its fast to develop and it looks neat! Yeah! Bloody neat compared to Perl (most) scripts.

Last night I got some small scripts done again; to automate the process of mailing all staff bills to their emails as html mails. This was simple, but had to do a lot of odd stuff that might have taken me lot of time if "I" were to do it in Perl or other shell scripts. Plus Python scripts run on windows, *nix and on my phone as well. So its a good toy language too, to play around with.

I have not done major big projects with Python and which involves heavy usage for the GUI's and DB's but I think it's high time I should do that. So next question is Microsoft coming up with a "Python#" ?!? hehe

Hi old buddy!

Long time no see. Still on Linux(obviously) and on Dhiraagu ADSL. Ah! Got ya! Since when did you move to Firefox? I thought Konqueror was the choice. Anyway cool! No Worries! End of transmission! End of Story! I give up! Thanks!

"little knowledge is dangerous" ?!?

Ok! I got a call from primary0 a while back; and has explained me this story behind the DOSS. The real story behind this is that; they have accused me, primary0 and sigey of DOSS'n their site. So obviously we will look into the matter.

primary0 has told me that he found logs of my ip going to thebalaabodu.com. Ok next question is why? here is the explanation. I was asked by a friend to download all the pics on the forum. After all that's the reason why everyone seems to join the site. So after a quick look into. I figured out that the pics were hosted in a folder on the site. So I simply did a wget for the .jpg files.

wget -m -r -l1 --no-parent -A.jpg http://www.thebalaabodu.com/4rum/files/

that was the command. Simply what this will do is connect to the site; and download the files with the extension .jpg. When run this. It will go through the dir and download all files. Next time its run; it will do the same; but will not download the files which is already in my HDD. So basically its a kinda mirror thingy which happens for the pics.

This these guys has considered as a "hacking attempt"; come on its good to be paranoid but this is way too much. They don't know the difference between a DOSS attacking and someone connecting and downloading pics. Besides they had this folder open. And it was for public; so I don't see anything wrong. What's the big deal. This is very simple. It does not do anything harmful but just download pics. Don't they want people to download pics? Ok if they say yes! Ok I admit I did it! But is this such a big deal?

I think what really happended is the timing. Seems these guys has offended Business man like Jabir and gov officials like Mr.FJ. So obviously they will try to attack them as well. My guess is they bought off the hosting service during the same period of time when I did the download. So its not nice to say someone bought off their hosting; it looks much cool, to say he ISP guys hacked into them! That's the real explanation behind what really happen'd. But I am sure they know this by now, but they just don't want to accept it since they have gone this far. Also its not so cool to admit that Jabir really messed them up. But I am sure if Jabir and FJ did this; they will be really laugh'n their ass off now. Cos these guys did not even know what hit them, and they are running after us.

Dear Mr. Jabir

With reference to the post below
http://www.thebalaabodu.com/4rum/viewtopic.php?t=2&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=3825 ; on the balaabodu. It seems we are exposed now. Sorry I did not give the money to primary0. Sigey is happy with the 10K he got. I think the 20K was not enough and the site is backup again! So now that they know you paid me 30K! LOL this has got very dangerous!

Also the site is back up again! So we need to do something about it! Lets bring it down again. This time the charges will be doubled! and the next time the charges will be tripled, and so forth. I am sure we can STOP them someday! hehehe!

Anyone else who needs a hacker for Rent please do mail me (but make sure you have 30K for a start)! LOL

Also according to balaabodu the latest technology is to DOSS a site! WOW ey!

Note: This is the most fun thing I ever been accused of. And I am enjoying this. Also in the process I am hoping that I will make good connections with Mr. Jabir and might get to go to his resort on week ends. Well Mr. Jabir what do you think? Can I? Can I? Please?

x0780 range test

Here is the first script to test the thaana with Symbian using Python.


from appuifw import *

def tha_input():
first_list = [' '.join(thaa_char[i:i+11]) for i in range(0,50,11)]
y = popup_menu(first_list, u'select Thaana char')
if y is not None:
x = popup_menu(thaa_char[11*y:11*(y+1)], u'select Thaana char')
if x is not None:
t.add(thaa_char[11*y + x])

thaa_char = [unichr(0x0780+i) for i in range(50)] # 50 thaana chars

app.body = t = Text()
app.menu = [(u'thaana', tha_input), (u'clear screen', t.clear)]

# wait for user to exit program
import e32
lock = e32.Ao_lock()
app.exit_key_handler=lock.signal
lock.wait()

Symbian and Thaana : Work in progress

Maybe a joke; but I still am into Thaana even when it comes to phones. Been trying to implement it on a phone. Starting with SMS. I've got the usual NOKIA 6600 phone which comes with Symbian OS. It already supports sms in languages like Arabic and Hebrew. Why not Thaana? After I experimented around. I found out by default it comes with a unicode font. Unfortunately; no Thaana code pages. So the next option was to upload a font which got thaana in it and make it the system default font for the phone. After some reading up, I am able to get a font installed; but still I can' get it to display Thaana correctly. On the symbian the fonts are not vector based but bitmaps. So It won't be that hard.

Next is to come up with a way to write and send sms through the phone. Right now I am doing that through the PC through bluetooth. The approach I am planning to take is to develop python scripts for this function. I still have no idea how the UI can be like. But hope to get this done; with in the next week. Anyone interested to join?

primary0 talks to the most hated forum of maldives

primary0 has a post on his blog which is very interesting.

Xbox 360 in the shops

Xbox 360 out and its not expensive, $299 and $399 : difference an extra storage disk.

"While most of the early buyers will be attracted to the photo-realistic graphics of the games, the Xbox 360 is more than just about games

The console can play music, display photos and show DVDs, signalling Microsoft's aim to make the 360 the heart of the entertainment system in the home." -BBC-

People don't READ emails!

Today in office, we got spammed like hell. Not from outside, but from inside.

What really happened was the company is getting new speed boats and the HR came up with the great idea of opening a contest for naming boats. This was announced in a mail; which was sent to a group in the email server which included all employees. But in the mail; it clearly says,


HOW DOES IT WORK?

• Send in the names to HR by e-mail hr@company name dot com
• Think of 5 different names with its meaning
• Submit before the closing

but seems no one noticed or read the first point and the reply was sent back to the all employees account which sends the mail to everyone (all the names that everyone suggested started to flood, this was fun though).Seems like half of the company is suggesting names; imagine the result. The best part was even the CEO did the same.

I need not say it.

Well; I've been browsing over this week end. I came across a blog which had a very similar feeling and point of view as I am having now. I would like to change some to accommodate to my feelings and views, but I guess the message is there. Not many people think about these things but I guess it's an everyday part of most of us.

A for Apple: in Maldives

Foucs Computers has got Apple Mac's in the show room now. Seems they are selling Mac's. On display are iMac's, Power Mac's and PowerBooks too. This was good news. Finally a good desktop environment. The question now everyone is waiting for is: will mac's make it? I think still Mac's are a bit expensive for most Maldivians plus they are too used to the PC's. Now only the rich kids use the Mac's and these guys get them down from other countries. For Office; I don't think except your boss who can spend extra money without questions being asked will get mac's. I feel the Maldivian Office environments are not yet ready to use Mac's as the desktop platform. It will be great if they do. iPods has a market :) and Surprisingly no Mac Mini's in the show room.

I have also got information from friends that another party who has got authorized dealership for Mac's is opening an Apple Store. Lets see how this goes. In any case this is exciting news. I would like to get one of those G5's.

another sms script

this works with a gprs router/modem attched to your box. can be easily modified to work with mobile phones as well. just replace the telnet part with maybe with a serial connection or connect throug bluetooth. then use the AT commands. In this case I am using a SARIAN 2000 Series EDGE Router, connect through eth. the script here works with xchat. so ppl just need to send you the msg !sms number message

#!/usr/bin/perl
#sms send script from xchat by darkm00n

use Net::Telnet ();

IRC::register("darkm00nSMS",1.0,"","");

IRC::add_message_handler("PRIVMSG", "privmsg_handler");
IRC::print("[darkm00n SMS Loaded]");

sub privmsg_handler {
$irc_message = shift(@_);
$irc_message =~ ~ /:(.*)!(.*@.*).*(#.*) :(.*)/;
$irc_nick = lc $1;

my @msgs = split(' ', $irc_message);

if ($msgs[3] eq ":!sms") {
$t = new Net::Telnet (Timeout => 10, Prompt => '/ss32263>/');
$t->open("192.168.0.99");
$t->login("username","password");
$words = @msgs;

$text= " ";
for ($r=5;$r<=$words;$r++){
$text = $text . " " . $msgs[$r];
}

$number = $msgs[4];
@lines = $t->cmd('sendsms '. $number . ' "'. $text . ' - darkm00n sms script-"');
$t->close;
sleep(1);
IRC::print(@lines);
}

return 0;
}

thaana for xchat

was in IRC tonight; and thought i'd have some fun with perl. so here is a little perl script for xchat which you can use to type in thaana. you need to have a thaana unicode font installed. then after you load this perl script. type /thaana swlWmc. might be useful.

released?

ever been in jail? i have once; for like 17 days. when i came out it was a feeling of freedom; but what i feel now is beyond that too. just for some reason i feel free! but sad part is freedom too comes with responsibilities. i’ve like spend a few years in a state of mind; from which i am free now. i hope :)

just one wish; want to enjoy this for a while; and catch up on TV and books, etc. Why? its not the time; but it’s the state of mind in which you dive into them. self confidence is the next thing which needs to be patched. my version is buggy. when you are told for a long time that everything you do is wrong, and nothing will be right; you start to believe it. now thats not a very good thing ey? anyway wish me luck. i am no more scared or pissed; just happy and optimistic. i really do feel good. :P

14 years from now; my work is done. if i live long enough. i guess you have to go through bad to get to good. as one of my very good friend says; all ugly things are made by people who are trying to make something beautiful, i can’t remember the real words though. so its a stage in life and a process where you just experience hurt, guilt, frustrations, etc... but important thing i always believed in was not to give up. never to give up on what you believe and whom you love. don’t let them down or give up on them, and never to bring your own selfish reasons for an excuse to dump or hurt them. end of the day; they are what reflects you, and who will be your strength. somethings are momentary; like money, sex, fame and etc. if one decides to hang on to it and seek it; then i guess all hopes are gone. one day you will wake up; and realize what you have lost. worst part is then it’s too late. days pass by for each of us. we won’t be the same in 20 years.

one good experience i’ve learned is don’t hold on to people who don’t hold on to others. if someone who comes to you by dumping someone else, will do the same to you too. look for people who have a moral and have ethics. who are willing to sacrifice their own happiness over their own self. never depend on someone who is self centered; trying to hold on to people like this will result in a major chaos. if you don’t love you own family; you won’t love anything else. no matter what you say or do. now i am happy to know i have a family whom i can always depend on and have learned so much from. now the challenge is to make my children feel the same and say the same. damn!

To Java or NOT to Java?

I have been grinding my brain off over a simple issues. But I wonder if it’s simple anymore. By tomorrow I need to decide on If I would say Java is my choice for corporate development or Mirco$oft dot Net. Now this is way too simple if it was a personnel choice, I would say Java. Why Java. hey! it’s cool too. Java simple is cool thats the first things. But there is a lot more then Java being a cool platform. Things I like about Java include, starting from source code for the core libraries being open. I still feel Java us a better platform then ASP when it comes to Web Services and preferred by more people. Better integration with SQL servers like Oracle in terms of things like writing of stored procedures. Java is more future proof unlike M$ stuff; example codes written in VB 6 is now old and can’t be easily ported to dot Net. When doing stuff beyond forms and windows, dot Net just can’t beat Java. Java runs on other planets, dot Net has yet to leave Terra Firma; stupid reason but it’s the fact. Good integration and support with UML tools.

I can go; but the sad part is with all these advantages; who will develop the applications in Java her in Maldives? I am finding it hard to get even developers to do simple php stuff; keep aside Java. So just wondering if I decide to make Java I guess it’s cool and good; but not practical. But lets see; to now Java is the choice.... HELP!

Dieting season

Dieting season has start. today is the second day of the season of this year. yesterday couple of us sat in front of my apartment; watching the bikes hiss by. Man male’ sure has a lot of people compared to the land space we have; unbelievable.

Allmost everyone gets all ready for a bike ride around 5 and there is a continuous flow of guys until the magrib prayer calls. As the time closes by; you’d find some crazy guys speeding down. I guess it’s the hunger that drives. Few girls come out at this time; as it’s assumed they are busy preparing food for the final call. So it’s not much of a show to watch. People are active and this is the health time of the year. you diet all day; and at night you go for sports. Biggest difference you will notice is we don’t get people smoking out on the roads during the day (except for a few whom I know); and everyone has an excuse to be carefree and angry.

Paul Allen's Octopus in Maldives

Billionaire Paul Allen (Microsoft's co founder) owns the world's largest yacht (it's more like a cruise liner) and cost a whopping $200 million. I was told by a friend last week that it's here in Maldives. Today I saw it near male' just off feydhoo finolhu. hmmmmm! Software surely pays off.

Anyway here is some info about the Octopus

Octopus cost Allen over US$200 million and has Permanent crew of 60, including several former Navy Seals.It has two helicopters, seven boats, a 10 man submarine and a remote controlled vehicle for crawling on the Ocean floor. The submarine has the capacity to sleep eight for up to two weeks underwater.

On average, owners must spend a minimum of 10 percent of the purchase price every year to keep these yachts in good working condition and cover crew salaries. Therefore “Octopus” which cost Allen US$200 million requires a US$20 million annual budget.

Sir; Miss, Please Leave me ALONE!

I really wonder why people just can't seem to understand the words : "Live and Let Live". What the hell is wrong with some of us. They just can't follow this; they have to peek in and pass a comments or worse, create trouble for others. What ever it is; my life is mine; and what I do is my business; as long as I don't cross your line; don't cross into mine. Simple I want to be left alone. Again: what I do and whom I hang around and do is strictly my OWN and PRIVATE BUSINESS. If you don't like it then it's your problem.

Console fun!

here is something thing fun and maybe explored...

this is small python script.

import unicodedata

u = unichr(1962) + unichr(1925) + unichr(1958) + unichr(1924) + unichr(1963) + unichr(1934) + unichr(1958) + unichr(1922)

for i, c in enumerate(u):
print i, '%04x' % ord(c), unicodedata.category(c),
print unicodedata.name(c)

print u

Another IT event

I guess most of you would have seen some posters on the roads with IITF or some thing. Which says "coming soon" and with some pink art work. Seems this is an IT event which will be held soon. Commercial one; so don't expect to find any thing interesting but will be worth to check out. Seems companies like Dhiraagu, STO and Wataniya might take part.

What the F**K; MySQL and SCO?

Many of you already would have this story about MySQL and the SCO partnership. Well this sure was a surprise to me and a lot of others. SCO is one hated company by a lot of open source guys. SCO have been attacked many times too by these people. So why? Why did MySQL do this? Obvious answer will be MONEY?

MySQL has been the choice of many of us for the past few years; now I wonder if this will be the same? hmmm! I guess nothing much will change, still people will use it. That's what I feel but I don't like the move. It should have stayed as it was. Maybe it's time to think about Postgres.

Shoot me AGAIN!

I know I will be attacked for saying this. But I just can't keep quite. As everyone knows we have a optic fiber network laid in male' by ibone: this is mainly used for cable TV now. This is also use for internet. This can also be use for a lot of other data and voice needs. Example WAN connectivity, etc.

OK! As we all know another network is coming up. Which is the government network. This was said to connect all gov offices and related places. This is good; even though they still don't have the software to be used; once the network is done; they can ping from one office to other. Which is still ok! Anyway that's a different story. What ever it is this is a good move. I hope the project will be a success; I know in terms of the network it won't be an issue. My concern is the right software solution and project management. I was told that they are gonna move to a .NET based solution and Windows based. hmmmm! It's cool too: A lot of money that is and so much security issues. If I was to have a say in this; I would say why not go for a *nix based back end. So many other governments already have. The applications should be web based; and I guess a good solution will be to go for java. Something like Tomcat maybe. Anyway those guys will know better. Also its good money to be spend; some people just love to spend.

Now here comes the best part. I was also told that the Police or the NSS, wants to install cameras all over male'. This is good ey! Eyes. I totally agree: "sulhamaslahathu" is the key word here. Anyway again! Optic fiber came in to play. Seems they are also gonna lay "YET YEN YANATHER FIBER NETWORK"! Yeah! You read right! Another fiber network. This is no surprise; for some people who know security; they have different wires and different machines for LAN and internet! LOL! I mean I just can't stop laughing when ever I talk and here about it. Security ey! I guess even NSA won't have this secure networks. It's good being paranoid. But man this is 2005! And for god sake we have things like IPSec and so many other methods of securing networks. Anyway, same excuse maybe would have come to the new fiber network for the eyes. But dudes the government is already spending money on a network. Then why? Are we having excess money here? Come on; there must be some logical explanation here! Right now it is not! By the way I wonder who's brilliant idea it is and who approved such a thing. Maybe I won't know shit about these sorts of things; but anyone with a logical thinking will agree with me that this is stupid.

I was also told by one guy in that team that they have already decided to go with JB for this project. I don't think still they have got the proposals but this is already being processed maybe. So another big money project! Good good! And yeah! I know even when I write this; the guys in Blue and Green (FM and TM) will get back at me.

Bring it on! But try to talk some sense and justify a point rather then getting personnel. Anyway I don't really give a damn now abt what they write; nothing new now. Plus I know the guys are jobless and need to be paid for articles. So I do understand them as well. But one question here is: I am publishing this under my NAME! Not some stupid Maldives or the propaganda machine's name. Which they can't. They still won't come out. If they are so confident and know they on the right path; then why not be honest and open. Tell the world who you are. Why are you hiding? Must be reasons ey? They just can't! And won't. And we all know the reasons. Anyway that's abt that.

/configure && make && make install

The GNU guys have come up with a new easier method than going through a whole bunch of directories and a whole bunch of vi editing before you compile from source. Now we have mostly been used to the autogen, configure , make and make install. Well bad news is this might soon be history and you will miss it. Though its gonna be around; like when the new GUI's and gui based tools came in for *nix; most newbies use em. Same is gonna go for this as well.

Anyway the new project is called GNU Source Installer. Might be interesting to check it out. Guess soon with all the disto'sthis will be bundled.

Stupid

I have been really pissed off trying to explain things to people who claim to be technical but think in terms of a system user. Most systems example telecom equipment now 80% or more just IT stuff. Servers swiches and software plus the radios. The back end is just routing, applications and databases.

Most of the people who maintain them; are "telecom engineers". daa!?! That's what they claim to be. They give names to services like ABCD or XYZ which when you simply break down is a router or simply a web server or a service. When you tell them or request for a change on the system: simple answer is "NO!". Why cos it's not in the specification or they don't know if its possible. And then you tell them that this can be possible; they don't like it. Or simply you are just another crazy "IT" guys. What will you know about telecom stuff. Yeah true to some level. But we do know a bit about routing and databases. It's not magic!

Coffee A Health Drink?

Today on Slashdot they have a post saying coffee a health drink? this sounded interesting to me, for obvious reasons. Here is the link to the real article.

What ever it is; true or false.. Coffee has become a health drink; mentally. Its good to have a coffee with a cigarette and maybe some friends. After a long days work; or during breaks. Kinda freshens you up. Besides what else do we have in male'. Maybe it's one of the few ways or the only way to socialize.

Desktops and *nix

Been a while since I played with my Desktop. I've been having using GNOME for long now. Enlightenment is still something that I fancy and love; but GNOME is stable and cool. Simple too. Though I know a lot of you will say KDE is better; but this is an endless war. As for Window Managers I guess it depends on what you are looking for and what you are comfortable with. KDE is good; speed wise I guess it's faster then GNOME and QT library has improved over the years.

I've tested t E17 the new DR17; as always it's fun and fancy. My first experience with E was back in 1997 since then E has come a long way.

my current desktop on GNOME (yeah i fancy OSX themes)

old enlightenment screen shot: (This was what I fell for, this is how it looked back in 1997)

Man's best friend : A MACHINE!

Guess today was one of those days; when you wake up and feel: "damn it's good to be alive"!. Kinda getting into the bad habit of waking up early and sleeping early. For me this is not good; but I guess I am in the ring now. I know my parents will be happy; and it's the so called "the harudhanaa" way of life: part of it. I don't know how many rules are in it. Anyway I need to start something; now it's just work; eat and sleep. But today just as I walked out of my door; I realized something. Funny feeling; but something was missing for long. My PC. After the tsunami, I have not fixed it; and my monitor, I don't even know where it is.

I did not have the need for one at home for long. Mostly I am not even home. I've got a notebook which belong to the company I work for; but it's different. To have your own system is something else. I can crash it any time I want. Install anything I want. Do my own work. Now I can't do all that.

So I've decided to fix the old machine; buy one more and also get a mac. I've got something in mind that I wanna try out. Since now I have time for extra things, I guess getting back to developing stupid tools and toys will be far better then sleeping.

Terrorism

"The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.48"

Terrorism Ter"ror*ism, n. Cf. F. terrorisme.
1. The act of terrorizing, or state of being terrorized; a
mode of government by terror or intimidation. --Jefferson.
1913 Webster

2. The practise of coercing governments to accede to
political demands by committing violence on civilian
targets; any similar use of violence to achieve goals.
PJC

So now we know the meaning! So what is it call when the state terrorizes the people? "Sulhamaslahah dhemeheh tun"? But a cool term anyway! And we know it can be used and comes in use often! Way to go who ever invented it. This same word is used by the USA/Israel to invade and kill people. Guess some people learned from them. Now now I did not say that; I heard on TVM in "hey yaanboa" or some program. They said so; not me! :)

TCon

TCon 01 is going to be the first TCon event planned. The event is planned to be held on 19 September 2005.

[root@maldives ~]$ rm -rf history

If you look at a maldives in a point of view of unix box and you are the root. For years this has been the story; as long as you are root and just before you logout; on every major event that you don’t like issue the command : rm -rf history. Some admins have also edited these files. vi would have been the choice of tool.

Looking back in time; from the time of “Rahnamaari” to the “Madhumeeskolu” days. It’s the same old story. For all these sessions and events; logs has been altered or deleted. Even events of last week. Ever wonder why we don’t have a proper written history of our country? or some pages are missing from the books? I guess we know the answers, and also know the gang of people to blame! This has been the case for thousands of years. I remember the event of 1988 November 3rd; A lot of us will remember this day... but ask around or refer to the official writings? daaa? what the? It will sound more like a “Rambo” series movie.

So the good news is “history can be rewritten”?

"See right through the red, white and blue disguise
With lecture, I puncture the structure of lies
Installed in our minds and attepting
To hold us back" -Rage Against the Machine-

After a year again; the same old day. Maybe not the same way; but more or less the same message. Also the same gang of people; the public; the army; the police; the mob force (lead by a long hair guy and a comedian); and the media. The game goes on, but the same game, nothing changed! Plant some people; blame the innocents, bleed the poor. Who is to blame? MDP? Maumoon? Us the public? NSS? Police? Or Yoosey and gang?

Biggest Question? Who is suffering and have been suffering? Some people get the best of everything; where else still people are homeless after tsunami and so many people get less then 2USD per day, in a county where average rent of a one room apartment is 400 USD. Still people can buy drugs like they can buy bread or even easy. .. I can't say more... Only reminds me of a song which goes like.. "What else can I write, I don't have the right"? Yeah! I am pissed and angry the way things are. And I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE!

Some men you just can't reach...

Look at the shoes your filling
Look at the blood we're spilling
Look at the world we're killing
The way we've always done before
Look in the doubt we've wallowed
Look at the leaders we've followed
Look at the lies we've swallowed
And I don't want to hear no more

This is an early 90's song; "Civil War" from G N' R. It starts off with these words from the film Hand Luke.

"What we've got here is failure to
communicate.
Some men you just can't reach...
So, you get what we had here last week,
which is the way he wants it!
Well, he gets it!
N' I don't like it any more than you men."

Another tech team coffee meeting

After a long long time; I met up with the old gang. On my way to work met up with some of the old buddies, went for a coffee' to nasanduraa. Gaanagaa will have the pic's. If anyone needs pic's please contact him. Things discussed among other things are world domination and how to create WMD's. Also how to sell an island from Maldives to some stupid rich party and get away with it. This coffee meeting lasted for about 20 min's. I hope this is news to some people. I bet it is!

Trouble in paradise

Most any place can seem to be a paradise
While you embrace, just the one that you adore
There needn't be an apple tree with magic powers
You need no garden filled with flowers
To taste the thrill of sweet greed hours
Gentle perfume and cushions that are silk and soft
Two in the gloom that is silent but for sighs
That's paradise while arms entwine and lips are kissing
But if there's something missing, that signifies
Trouble in paradise

-Trouble in Paradise (1932)-

Oh! No! More trouble! Bloggers! BAN!

This guys Ashraf (primary0) the GPS guy, is crazy. The "all know" fm, guys got pissed with him and did an article; which by mistake they had a link to this blog and now on it he has this post. Which is really a good move; I would say. :). Nothing political at all. We an't really political. If you go through our blogs you'd see that. MOSTLY we only mind our own business and just have fun. What's wrong with enjoying life and expressing ones own thoughts. Anyway there has been a lot of hits to his blog and a lot of people will get inspired; I sure do. Now damn it! He is promoting blogg'n. Oh! Oh! I think this is not a good move for "some" people. They already hate people like us. More people to write articles about are on the way. This is no good; no good! First it was MC, then MDP, then DO and other orgs followed; now bloggers! Man! Give these guys a break! They already pay people to counter attack and write and design. Don't over work these guys, please I beg you; they are humans too and ABOVE ALL, SOME OF THEM ARE OUR GOOD FRIENDS TOO. We love them as well; though they are doing their jobs; we still consider them friends and have no hard feelings. An't we good? :P Anyway here I would like to express and point out that who ever or the team who is doing the cartoons at FM, is good. I like it always. Always makes me smile and have a good laugh. I am happy to see at least some good and creative work from people. I am sure there are others who also feel the same and would like to say "keep up the work guys". But also another word of advise don't use those links.Not a very good idea; especially when Ashraf is the guy who is maintaining that link?; and you write about him! daaa! And yeah they said he had a police record; hmmm! Of setting up the internet link? One thing these guys are pissed about is they don't have a choice. Even if they look at Dhiraagu or ROL, its the same gang of friends. These guys keep you online and make it possible for you to READ this, and That CRAP too. Appreciate them or not. OR get pissed or not! Now that's a FACT of Maldives. And you can't change it. No matter how pissed you are! AH! ah! For the time it's that way. So go on write more! Nothing will change. What ever you say; drunk; steeling GPS; fucking around girls; playing games; what ever. Still they do it, NOT you. So you wanna take over? Can you? NO fucking way. Read this and get pissed more. I mean what ever they said about Ashraf; the way I see it; he is one guy who is contributing to this nation; in developing it on this area of interest and he is good at what he does; one talented guy! Not just another "writer" or a guy in BLUE. When it comes to setting up links that connect us to the rest of the world; or securing your networks. It is these guys who do it, at this age of "Information technology". So what more can you say; useless guys! Yeah you say that too to the medium they run; on the net; cos of who? Just cos of them! I hope you got my point? I know only a few guys will appreciate this; but that how it is dudes. No matter how pissed you are. You spend thousand of dollars on developing people for these jobs; but so sad; the useless "partey's" are running the show and know how to run the show. Sad. Accept it. "Aliens has taken Over", wired and wireless! Anyway "gas", "gas", "gas".. and yeah "WE KNOW!" (you know we know who you are; but you like to think we don't know; ok hmmm! we don't. happy? "it's simply not true dhoa?") and one thing have guts! what ever we write we are writing under our own names and on our blogs; not some xyz name on FM and TM or DO. If it's your personnel concern or wanna express; do it; like a man! I know someone will get pissed after reading this; and he knows who i am refering to, and i know soon he will hit back. I know that; i know how they move and what moves they will make. Same pattern always. Funny part is: When they know I know em'; and all that; they still do it; and pretend that I won't know. Whats your problem? "Jealous?" about what? I don't see a reason why you should be? Why be of a low life like me? I did not claim a party or want to be the prezident of this nation; or want to make a political party; or have my name registered under any? or should i walk into your office and sign up? OK! I'd do it next time I am in male' and will get my card? Happy now? party wize I am still "husaribai". :) And one more thing! When this country needs something to be done in our field it's us (the MLUG and the gang) who has steped in and done not the FM and DO and TM. Worst of times we were the guys who came in and offered to contribute FREE! one example is http://www.tsunamimaldives.mv/ ! Did anyone know! or thanked! or claimed! No! So don't give your crap to us! You can only talk and write and carry news to the big guys! can't do real work! face it! "Thari jaja haa thibey; we don't care!" it's good when you get promoted! it benifits us too; we at least get more coffee from you. :) and yeah! next time you write about me; please; please put a link to my blog! :P need the URL? hahahaha or should I SMS that? This is fun!

Was Blue; came RED now RED; and more RED

Yeah! Guess Male' will be all in Red this week. Why "Red"? Anyway did you know palm trees add up a lot to the view of a beach. They look really good; don't you think so? And I guess I need to clean my mouse, too bad no balls now; just again a "Red" light of some sort.

System Administrator Appreciation Day

Yesterday 29th of July was the systems administrator appreciation day. Cool ey! If you belong to this category of people, you might want to stop and ask a question. How many times have you been thanked or how many times have you got to listen crap. But it's good to know there is a day ey that titles "System administrator appreciation Day". When mails are sent from one network to other; its taken for granted; when your system is up and running smoothly it's taken for granted. But when it's down; ah ah haa! It's not a good news for ANYONE. Point here is these people are responsible for simple things like you reading this blog, and most of the other things you do. Some people think it's just get the wire in and install the damn software! How easy can it be? Ok! Then do it your self. :) but I do understand when a system is down and slow and keeps on getting time outs; its really frustrating too. So it's human nature to get back at the sys admins. So basically it's part of the job and the challenge. I would say most sys admins don't really look for the thank you's and the big fat pays. Which they know won't really happen too, but the kick is to solve problems and get them right. I don't know if most people will understand it; but there is so much to it. When you finally get it done. You feel good; not that those people at office 3 can send mails, browse, or print. But cos you got it done, and you solved it. You got to find the problem or you came up with a hack for it. For us we don't care what content goes in those mails or data,for us it's just packets.

This Shit is Good!

Now! I don't know what you might think or say to this but, this shit is good! What shit? "HOLSTEN Apple+"; and it's got stuff written in Arabic; so it can't be bad? can it? :P But I do mean it; it's a nice one. Besides the taste its also "suppose" to be rich in Vitamins D,B6,B12 and B52 and RJ45? daa! Kidding! But I would give this the best of the year from all imported drinks this year thus far!

Good morning Maldives

Today is the 26th of July 2005. and.. here we are ah ha! not a holiday for me. The boat ride was cool an't it? The sea, the clear blue sky.. And cute girls sitting in front of the boat adding to it. What more can you ask for? Freedom! I can feel it in the "air". Did you ever wonder why the sky is blue? and how it will feel to swim in the sea with dolphins, or be one of em'? Machines and people, animals and plants.. or everything, be what you wanna be. A few years from now, you will wonder why you did not enjoy it? why spend you life with regrets and jealousy and stuck with emotions that really don't make sense. Go out enjoy and be your self. Crack a few jokes, dance, sing and eat. Do something good; which will make you feel good! Life is surely short, enjoy it! Now let me do a little promotion too: "Life is good; share IT". Where IT, refers to? :) What ever? "Just DO IT". Someone a few nights back, gave me an article; which really inspired me; and I thank her for that! Thanks! God Bless you Maldives.

cd /home/hulhumale'

done! been about 4 days since i have cut off myself from the busy and freak'n male'. too much politics, speeding cars, crappy ppl, too many men in green and blue, etc. this plc is so much better. cofe'? I get it here too! so? i think i prefer to live here then at male'. Life here is so much better. the beach is nice, not many people and cars, so much better. I would not mind call'n this home. might set my environment variables $HOME to the island. Few years down the line, many will agree with me; but now i know a few will. But that's cool, even if i were u ; it would be the same.

Please LEAVE me ALONE!

Sorry but I need to be left alone, to do what I wanna do, without much questions being asked. I don't want to think and answer to questions which I don't want to think about. I am not saying I have better things to do, but sorry again, I just need to be left alone now. Damn! I need some time off soon, and watch some cartoons! :)

No Complains!

No complains and happy to be busy! I have realized that being busy is good and occupied with work is the best thing that can happen to me at this moment in time. Worked hard to achieve some thing for months and sacrificed so much, but... Guess somethings are not meant to be. No complains anyway, though at times I know I was used and taken advantage of. This is ok. It's the way life is, some people just take things for grant and don't realize what damage they done, until too late.

Not given much thought about anything, besides work. And that's all I think of now. But my fear is when this is over, what's next? I'd be back to the point which I am avoiding so much. Don't want to go to a numb state of mind. Help is needed! But no worries I'll make it! Always have! fuck, life and people. Machines are always better. The human factor is not a good thing! Emotions and stuff; bad, bad bad.. or is it?

When I am done with this, I will revolve to the second stage of life, I know that. Now I don't want to compromise and give in. I just want to be happy; I don't wanna care for others now. Or want to give in and hope that things will work out my way! I have to fight my way in, not give in and wait. I hope what ever happened was good. But I am so done, so so done. "Thrill is gone!"

The thrill is gone
The thrill is gone away
The thrill is gone baby
The thrill is gone away
You know you done me wrong baby
And you'll be sorry someday

more BogoMips.. yeah baby! yeah!

FM Loves me :)

Well what can I say? Here is an artical about me on FM. Man oh man I loved it after I read it. Sounded more like I have really pissed some people off well good enough! So why are they pissed here is the explaintion, click here to find out the reason. But this was expected out of them! I knew that even before I did posted the thingy on my blog: here is the quote from my previoud post "I know they will get back at me with all the crap: but before that let me tell them this.. No matter how fucked up I am : I beat that again! So ? And they did not even get a hint! Infect they used this also to mislead people. So I prove my point! Now they can go on..." .. so no suprize guys! after all this is what you guys do, and I have to admit you guys are good at it and getting better! by the way ever considered writting scripts for movies? or stories? I think you will do very well there! hehehe! anyway it was cool! i loved it!

But here it is; the guy claims to be a friend of mine! so why did he not put his name? and why not others friend name? so that people can refer back to me. Here is some help; check with Mr. Hassan Hameed; Umarbe and others who were the Assistant Principles. Now i can publish names; they can't, why? hmmmm!?

So who was my best friend at school? Ah ha! now now he does not know that too.Well let me tell you that too. I use to be in the 1992 batch at school. Hanged out mostly with Abbas (who works at Presidents Office now), Mohamed Ali (who works at Public works now), Mandhoo (who is in US now), PH (who is in dhiraagu now), and a few more guys. They would be able to tell you know addicted I was with drugs! buhahahah! man o man! Ok; I confess I use to smoke when i was back in school. There you go; now what else... girls? ah ha! now you want me to talk abt that! No fucking way! I don't wanna play along now. I am no part of this show; sorry dude.

KD group? Now who are they? and what area I lived in! yeap I was not into sports at all! cos after school ; i spend time in school with my friends; inside the computer lab. Do your home work dude. Now just cos I pissed you off; If i were you I would do my home work well; before I attack! now this guy who cliamed he knows me; daaa! i would give him 20 out of 100. Cos he knows where i am from, and knows that i have a sister and a brother and a mom and a dad. Smart guy ey?

Yeah! he is right I am a hacker? but does he know what a "hacker" means? nop! a hacker is also known as a computer programmer! thats the real term! yeah thats my job and what i do. So? and just cos i defaced and exposed some stuff related to there site does not mean; i what ever? Anyway shows that they are pissed again! and very pissed! but I have to admit again! I love the show.

Me play games? wow! man you suck! I mean not you! thats what i am told by my biddies; i am bad with games. And i never play much computer games! Why? cos i always loose! bad! only game i was into was Unreal; that was like 5 years back! Porn? ah ha! there u got me on that! i had a few shots of that! i have to confess on that! but screen savers? no freaking way! and the computer for my birthday? I wish! I got one; i still will complain about that! nop! I never got one until I was out of school! I only got my first computer when I finished off my O'Levels! So dude; why don't you read these and rewrite the whole thingy again! Maybe people might buy your story then! best of luck next time! And talk about friend? ah! find out! I always get complains from my parents that i always hang out with them! and yeah ; one point you say I am a looser and a lonely guy! next min you say I hang with KD group and do drugs! come on stick to one! Now i am confused too!

THE First Call

Today we made the first VoIP call, that we routed. VoIP has been in use for a while in Maldives, through the net, but this is the first time a call was routed in this fashion as of my knowledge. This is also the first IPCC implementation. The setup was done using cisco equipment.

What? Why? When?

OK! We must have seen this around a bit;with a big "?" So what is it. Now this is my understanding of this "?"

Its really a "?" for the people who put that.. Meanings include: lost, confused, uncertain. I mean why else will someone change over night form the old blue and everything to the "new" red? Now that's really the question! Now in my terms it's called "spoofing"; trying hard to redirect traffic. This might work too; and good if it does; but its a joke too. Where did the creativity go?

If they are so confident and so happy with the brand why dump it like that? A sudden change of color won't change anything, it's more then that! It's way more then that! Maybe they expect others to react to this and change plans?, Nop! beeep! Wrong! I want to shoot a lot here; but for a reason beyond what I can explain, I won't. But it makes things better; this will be again a good show! Why? What? When? Where? Worse?

The common food list!

I just gave a thought after I ordered a fried tuna noodles. It's a limited choice. Look at the menu; it's always the same stuff. Why? Maybe the reason is this is the stuff people eat. Fried Noodles, Fried Rice, Nasi Goreng, fish and Chips (though its always fries), spaghetti, fresh orange juice, coke, kohtu roshi, there end of the list! Pizza! OK! Why?

blank! boink!

too many menthol cigarettes are no good!

Friday

Fedora Core 4 is out and been a while.. had it downloaded today, will be burn'n CD's of em. So if anyone needs a copy let me know.

It's funny and amazing to know how many people go out on Friday evenings. I mean so many people on the roads. I was spending the day in doors and around 4:30 went out for a pack of Marlboro and was shocked. Where did all these people come from? Why are they hanging around the beach area? 40% of them are most likely not Maldivians. Are we in need of more parks and some means of entertainment to these people? I don't know. Cofe' shops, carnival which is a boring place, what else do we have? for sure kids need space. Now in male' we don't have that. But I really enjoy the morning hours on Fridays; mostly empty roads.

The sunny side of life ; Maldives

The funny side of life ; Male'

TM and FM : bull shitting again!

And.. Again they put the blame on MDP and Christians.. Why guy? Don't you believe you guys have a crappy and shitty setup and that we maldivians can't do it? So what you guys are saying or assuming is Maldivians are crappy bunch of people who don't know shit? And you call your site "the maldivian"!!! Shame!

This event has got nothing to do with MDP or others; this was just done for fun and to show that some people are out there who don't like what's going on! Even with MDP or the other parties. We don't need this shit!

anyway what you find below and here on just only published for educational purposes ONLY! Lets roll!

First : You find time and a day you have the mood to spend some time off work at your home and with a good connection to the internet!

Second: you get some good tips and information off security sites and your friends; that there are new exploits out.

Third: you find a subject: in this case it was www.themaldivian.org. Why? cos it won't do you any harm legally even if anything goes wrong! This site does not belong to the gov or a company. Or a registered organization. Nor any individuals has claimed the owner ship! So Bingo! Plus find a place you don't like!

anyway.. They have php and mysql running. A tip was given by a friend that there is an sql injection exploit, I thought I'll give my luck on it. Been a while since I did not play around on the net. So thought I'd party for a night. So... On the way home; with two of my friends went for a cofe'. Talked about it; and possible ways to exploit it.

Next ; after going home; I had a good look at the site. Exploring it. Found out that it's php and mysql based. Knew that even before.. But also figured out that there must be a control panel for the content management system. So the most logical way is to try your luck first. Did a www.themaldivian.org/login.php and also admin.php.. ah ha! Found the panel. Now the password.. No way I can guess the user name and password. At first I thought they are stupid and will use something like admin. But guess I was wrong. Went out and came and had a quick nap.

Woke up.. Got hooked on to the net. Made a cofe' and some music. Looked into the site. When you click on the news links it takes you through the content management system. So there I go. I passed a few parameters and read through the exploits archives. Found out that the "UNION" will be use ful. So gave it a couple of tries. Like end of the URL's added stuff like "UNION%20SELECT%20*%20FROM%20admin%20".. This gave some good tips ..Then I was able to get some errors with the table names.. And here is what become interesting... I found out that dhiyavaru was the name of the db and obviously the admin pass and user names will be in a table called admin. Easy guess.. Now to exploit this. With a couple of tried me and one more friend on line.. I tried this one.." http://www.themaldivian.org/news_details.php?index_no=
2%20UNION%20SELECT%20*%20%20FROM%20dhiyavaru.admin "
.. what did I get.. ah ha! you don't need to pay a guy thousands of USD to know these kinds of stuff. Just play around with stuff... And anyone who spends time enough; will get this right! No big deal! No super computers used to crack codes! just simple "maldivians" and so called "fucked up minds".. I know they will get back at me with all the crap: but before that let me tell them this.. No matter how fucked up I am : I beat that again! So ? And they did not even get a hint! Infect they used this also to mislead people. So I prove my point! Now they can go on...

here is what you get...



ok! what you see is the user name and password dumps. First one in bold is the user name ; followed by password. You get two users. First I tried the two bold ones. Thought first one was the user name and second bold was the pass. But my other friend who was on the same job; figured it out first! hehe! Now to get to this point it was like 15 to 30 mins. Considering how lame this site was.

Next what do I get... This...



This is the admin panel... Rest was .. I passed it to other friends who were online.. And they played around with it.. NOP! Did not pay them! hehehe! And they had fun too. Exploring the site and all! Rest was history you got in the site! From that point on I just quit! And yeah! Make sure you are on a proxy all the while.. So they can't trace you. Let them put the blame on MDP and others! Who cares! Its a game! And as for the DO pics and stuff! I guess my friends did a good job pissing themaldivian.org guys! And this information was given out right then and there!
All what I have typed here was shared online.. in real time. So it was multiple people who did get in! I don't know who they are just know them through MSN and IRC. :D

Hope that was educative enough to the so called "VERY much Secure web site" and the people who are hired to maintain it. So next time; fix these and go to some classes to learn or read. How? Now you ask!ok let me give you a little tip here! Know abt encryption? What fool will keep the password unencrypted on public DB's?. So how is this done; I think even with php they have MD5 encryption functions as well! So go one and use them! And get the content management thingy up! We don't use the same next time! Besides you are off my list!

here are the bull shit which they have on TM and FM about this event! All false. Now you see and it's proven how much they lie! And talk crap.

END..

FM pissed over the deface of TM

What can I say? They are just pissed! What more can I say? :P

just a side note.. The thing is they do not realize they don't have a capable and a good team of people backing them up. As for TM; the guy who made the content management system sucks.. I mean it really SUCKS! Is that the best they can get? And for FM.. hmmm! Now these guys; I feel sorry for them; oh the work .. But end of the day; I hope it's paid for. The cartoonists are good; I have to admit on that hope they are well paid; they should be. If not guys fight for it; I mean it you guys do a good job. But I think they are badly in need to web developers. But who will do it? As of now they don't have anyone.. Hey why not the TM guys lend a hand on this ey. :D NEED HELP? hehehe I know the TM team badly needs help on security and development related help. hahahahah man o man! But I can't wait to see what changes they brought to it. I think they don't have much options. One: get rid of the DB and scripts. Two: close down the site. Three: get HELP!

So; who wants to try their luck on FM? ok? then here is a start
http://cerga.lunarpages.com:2082/login/ <-- this is the adim pannel (login for the web control pannel) of FM
now what? next hmmm! user name it's I think ... daaa factma2 :) and password? ask them! try your luck!

New found love :: Python

Now I know most people will disagree with me; but here goes. I've programmed in a lot of languages; just for the fun of it. But mostly sticked with VB and C. I've always read the ups and downs of scripting languages and the good side of Java. C is still at the top of the line. C# came and C# passed by; still did not hit me. Delphi was cool; but faded off. Dosbe loves Perl but it's as bulky as him; well more then that it's some 1000 pound dinosaur. It's good; get things done fast and easy... But.. There is a lot of butts to it. And smelly ones too. It's good for small scripts to get stuff done easily; and does a pretty good job too. But when you go for bigger applications; ah ah aa! I won't go for it. Only dosbe will understand his codes; no one else will have any idea of what goes on. Meaning it's hard to maintain these Perl stuff, and I won't touch anyone else's bulky Perl stuff. And for you to be a guru in Perl you need to have a good UNIX background. Yeah! Don't fight with me on this. It is true! You wanna fight? Ok! It was initially designed to be a replacement for the old scripting languages and ack and sed. This was designed to do sys admin stuff for sys admins. And now what has been build has been built on top of these. What ever. You got the point? If you did not; don't bother! But I would still say it's a powerful tool.

As for python; yamee! The codes are neat and it's like a sexy snake. Python is good tool to develop GUI based apps and well as console based stuff! Also the portability is damn good. Python is easy to learn and fast to develop application. This I liked about it. And together with the speed. Being usable to newbies is just a small part of python being good. Python allows layers of sophisticated abstractions to be built in concise, understandable ways. In my opinion, this is precisely what I require for "programming in the large": the ability to build layers of abstraction without losing track of the details. Java? Java does that too ey! Yeah true! But java is not open. Java is good; but there is so many down sides to it. I would say like Linux and other good *nix's. We have very good *nix like HP-UX; True64, OpenVMS and Solaris. All really good! But why Linux! I guess the same applies for Python.

I feel Python has a good future and a lot of applications will be ported and developed with python in days to come. Maybe I am trying to convince myself because I have an application to be developed using python; but that was my choice and I am happy that I get to choose it. So to conclude: Python ROX's

PH is Free!

Yeah man! He is finally a FREE man. Last night he was out! And we are all very happy! The questions; why he was taken and why all this? Still remains unanswered, and I don't think we will get a straight answer too. But that does not matter much as much as him being free! Guys; pls give this guy a good rest; don't over work him for a while. And for all those who said stuff against him "FUCK YOU ALL", now what have you got to say? "mistake"?? My ass!

Linux <-- I Love you!

When I say this I mean it. Like I still remember the days (years I would say) back in 1996 to 2001 or so. People use to joke about Linux. Some thought it's too DOS like! daaa? And others thought it was a stone age tool and no good for anything. Well most people did not know what it was all about! Keeping Linux aside they did not know anything was there besides Windows! Anyway I am happy I stood by Linux and *NIX.

So many questions popped those days, like what will you do with Linux? Can it run coral draw (sure it use to) and can it run MS Word and Excel (yeah! It does not! What ever way we do it) and also stuff like does it have a windows like thingy? My o my! Guess for some people computing was all about word processing and desktop publishing! Anyway now I don't need to fight anymore or try to explain where and how Linux/Unix can be used! Cos from the email service you use to the phones that you carry is going and is on Linux/Unix.

For almost the last one year, I have totally worked on Linux/Unix. And I am one happy person. I am proud to say I don't have the freaking M$ Winbows on my machine. I run "Linux". Yeah Baby! I word process, I read my mails, I browse, I use IM's, I code and yeah I can even play music and watch DVD's and use WiFi networks! And I DON'T need to "patch" my machine every week or have anti-virus s/w installed. :0)

The work that I do, for my luck is totally or 90% related to UNIX too. So again, I am one happy person! And my *nix will run on one of the most expensive servers which the country has purchased so far. It's not goona be on "Winbows", but guess what on HP-UX. buhahhaha! So where does windows come to play? For the end users! Yeah! It's like the auto cars. No newbes can drive F1's. Kick my ass now! Or rather now it's time I will say to all those Windowsers out there who said Linux/Unix is crap, "fadaboe"! Still UNIX rulez!

But one sad thing is I can't get Linx/Unix guys from Maldives. I only know a handfull of them. This is one sad thingy.

Just Another Day!

Wake up! Work ; Work ; Work; Sleep! Life?
No good!
Need A Change!

Now all I do is follow a schedule, and just... go on and on; in an infinate loop! machine! beep beep! beep!

PH was handcuffed! NOT RIGHT!

PH was handcuffed and taken to the hospital last night (23rd of May 2005). This is not acceptable at all! I repeat THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. He did not commit any crime and none has been proved on him! So why? WHY? he is not a criminal to be treated this way! He did not attempt any escapes! Why was he treated this way? I ask again? Why? this is enough! being humiliated and taken away from family and friends for no reason! Someones got to be responsible for this! why? maybe you guys don't need him and his services. We need him as a friend and we need him as a great Maldivian and one of the best system administrators and network engineers Maldives has ever seen! He is not just another guy! He deserves a lot of respect! And for FM and TM ; guys this was seen and reported to me by his own brother! so don't lie about this or try to prove otherwise! cos we had has enough of your BULL SHIT TOO! and mind you! We don't like the CRAP you write about PH on your sites!

Still PH is not OUT!

I've been told that by Ph's family that they were informed that the police has got 15 more days extension for PH to be kept in captivity.

I looked into the reasons and I was told that they don't have major issues with him; and relating him to DO. Meaning they can't find anything againt him! So why now? OK! Now they found a CD of pictures of 12th and 13th AUG 2004. daaaa? I mean thas history! That happened! Everyone has pictures of that event! ahh! We are suppose to pretend that it never happened? You can't change history! I have a CD of pictures of the day too. I mean that's real event that happened. What's so wrong by having pictures of it? Tell me? And everyone knows PH takes pictures! He even takes pictures of kids and birthday parties; it's his hobby.

And secondly AS FAR AS I KNOW, after the tsunami event the president of Maldives, has given pardon to all those who ever arrested in relation to AUG 12th and 13th event! Was I misinformed? I mean how can they relate him to that, just cos he had pictures of him! I mean as I said before event after event they try to frame him in some way! What's next "RAPE"?

Why can't it be told that they don't like him! And they have something personnel against him!?!? It is starting to look so to me! Excuse me if I am wrong but this is the message I get! Its also being told that the police need to question 3 or 4 more people regarding him! These people are suppose to have committed a crime by sitting in the same coffee table with PH!

Good morning Maldives!

Today is the 22nd Day since PH was taken! How many more days? What have he done to be kept in a cell for 22 days? Cos he did good to this country and worked hard? Cos he protected our privacy? Cos he was a good person who was always willing to help? Cos he inspired so many? Why? I need answers? Why? The reasons we were given in just BULL SHIT! try to sell it to a 2 year old; even a child won't buy that story! And what do you expect us to be? Fools and idiots? Curse you!

Listed! (black listed) :0)

I just got the news that I am listed in police for defending my friend and saying he should be out! daaa! so what am i suppose to do? stay quite! and say "do the needful"?

Don't I have the right to express my views? and say what I feel? I did not say kill anyone; or pring this party to power or over throw "them" did i? No! so what did i do? I just said Ph is innacent and he should be a free man! and he is kept there without any valid reason! from what I know he was only taken for out to question on two occations. That is on the 5th and on the 9th. Today is the 21st; he was taken on 1st of May. How do i know this! simple! the lawyer needs to be taken along with him! and according to him; it was just two times! anyway for all this I say he should be a free man!

Now what do they have againt me? Yeah I agree I fight for him on my blog. And also I redistributed t-shirts to some of Ph's friends who asked for them. I got the t-shirts from his brother! who requested to give them out to friends of PH! and what does this t-shirt say simple! "FREE PH". So whats so wrong about saying he should be free? is that a crime? If someone does some thing wrong and if others stand up for it, whats so wrong about it?

In anyway I am not gonna stop saying "FREE PH"; until he is free or the gov comes up with REAL facts againt him, for a valid reason! as of now I will say what I feel and what I should! He was my friend sinc my school days, and always been a friend! I love my friend and I will fight for my friend! the rest of you who can't stand up or is scared to death! I don't care! I would stand by him until he is FREE! anyone got any problem with that! take me in too!

Once when i was in school! I asked one of my teachers about freedom of speech in maldives! I was told we do have it! that is very correct! but there is a catch! "we don't have it after speech" :0)

So if you get the news that I am taken in; hey if anyone cares! try to send me some magazines in! I mean its so boring inside a cell! and no reading material makes it worse! but the food was good last time! i hope its same!

Old song!

Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night
Enter Patty Valentine from the upper hall.
She sees the bartender in a pool of blood,
Cries out, "My God, they killed them all!"
Here comes the story of the Hurricane,
The man the authorities came to blame
For somethin' that he never done.
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
The champion of the world.

Three bodies lyin' there does Patty see
And another man named Bello, movin' around mysteriously.
"I didn't do it," he says, and he throws up his hands
"I was only robbin' the register, I hope you understand.
I saw them leavin'," he says, and he stops
"One of us had better call up the cops."
And so Patty calls the cops
And they arrive on the scene with their red lights flashin'
In the hot New Jersey night.

Meanwhile, far away in another part of town
Rubin Carter and a couple of friends are drivin' around.
Number one contender for the middleweight crown
Had no idea what kinda shit was about to go down
When a cop pulled him over to the side of the road
Just like the time before and the time before that.
In Paterson that's just the way things go.
If you're black you might as well not show up on the street
'Less you wanna draw the heat.

Alfred Bello had a partner and he had a rap for the cops.
Him and Arthur Dexter Bradley were just out prowlin' around
He said, "I saw two men runnin' out, they looked like middleweights
They jumped into a white car with out-of-state plates."
And Miss Patty Valentine just nodded her head.
Cop said, "Wait a minute, boys, this one's not dead"
So they took him to the infirmary
And though this man could hardly see
They told him that he could identify the guilty men.

Four in the mornin' and they haul Rubin in,
Take him to the hospital and they bring him upstairs.
The wounded man looks up through his one dyin' eye
Says, "Wha'd you bring him in here for? He ain't the guy!"
Yes, here's the story of the Hurricane,
The man the authorities came to blame
For somethin' that he never done.
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
The champion of the world.

Four months later, the ghettos are in flame,
Rubin's in South America, fightin' for his name
While Arthur Dexter Bradley's still in the robbery game
And the cops are puttin' the screws to him, lookin' for somebody to blame.
"Remember that murder that happened in a bar?"
"Remember you said you saw the getaway car?"
"You think you'd like to play ball with the law?"
"Think it might-a been that fighter that you saw runnin' that night?"
"Don't forget that you are white."

Arthur Dexter Bradley said, "I'm really not sure."
Cops said, "A poor boy like you could use a break
We got you for the motel job and we're talkin' to your friend Bello
Now you don't wanta have to go back to jail, be a nice fellow.
You'll be doin' society a favor.
That sonofabitch is brave and gettin' braver.
We want to put his ass in stir
We want to pin this triple murder on him
He ain't no Gentleman Jim."

Rubin could take a man out with just one punch
But he never did like to talk about it all that much.
It's my work, he'd say, and I do it for pay
And when it's over I'd just as soon go on my way
Up to some paradise
Where the trout streams flow and the air is nice
And ride a horse along a trail.
But then they took him to the jailhouse
Where they try to turn a man into a mouse.

All of Rubin's cards were marked in advance
The trial was a pig-circus, he never had a chance.
The judge made Rubin's witnesses drunkards from the slums
To the white folks who watched he was a revolutionary bum
And to the black folks he was just a crazy nigger.
No one doubted that he pulled the trigger.
And though they could not produce the gun,
The D.A. said he was the one who did the deed
And the all-white jury agreed.

Rubin Carter was falsely tried.
The crime was murder "one," guess who testified?
Bello and Bradley and they both baldly lied
And the newspapers, they all went along for the ride.
How can the life of such a man
Be in the palm of some fool's hand?
To see him obviously framed
Couldn't help but make me feel ashamed to live in a land
Where justice is a game.

Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties
Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
While Rubin sits like Buddha in a ten-foot cell
An innocent man in a living hell.
That's the story of the Hurricane,
But it won't be over till they clear his name
And give him back the time he's done.
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
The champion of the world.

My Letter TO maldivian@themaldivian.org

hi

I have been following your site and DO; who have been trying to make it look as if PH is associated with your political games of cat and rats. I would like to express my views and educate you on this matter. Which I strongy feel should be done.

As for PH; for your information: he has been the sys admin for the dhivehinet (which was been the only internet service provider for years and still is the major ISP in the country). Maybe you don't know but mail servers and web servers of PO; NSS and Police and other gov's ae also kept under him! He is the person who designed and maintained these networks! ask anyone from Dhiraagu on this!

Point being IF he was part of DO; he won't just send bull shit there! he will have real facts; not just crap! Other point is all the traffic goes through his network! again let me explain this too! this means he can sniff all your activities! chats; emails; your porn activities ; everything! from everyone! An't this stuff for which Sappe' will bend over for? Get it! still don't?

Other fact is; if he was making DO; this site won't be such crappy static page! OK! he is more capable then any guy you guys have! no one in the gov knows half the stuff he knows about networking and the internet! And the other sad fact is All the dead guys and unborn children know the site DO is made and maintained by Sappe'. I don't know why you guys don't know this! please explain! Where and how can PH be involved with DO? any points? you say he is involved or he is the one who is making this site! dudes! are this is not April 1st? is it?

Please leave my friend out of your dirty political games! We don't want any part of this! And yeah his buddies and his friends run the internet in maldives; and people who are inspired by him! ONLY them! incase you don't know about this! maybe they don't own it! but they run the show and make sure everyone stays connected and no information leak is there! this is sensitive stuff! like the ftp passwords that you send over your connection to your sites; etc! I mean they don't need to bring or hack into these! it goes through them! just need to listen! yeah just "listen"; what if they start to not ONLY listen but "talk" as you claim! what IF ph was and did? aaah! all those mails; cyber sex sessions! now we don't want them to be leaked do we? Now all i am saying is IF Ph was part of it... would you be publishing these stuff and be sitting in the cover of sum office and do all this! think about this. These are stuff which is being ignored in all your claims!

If PH was part of DO; think of all that will and would have happened? you dont have a clue or idea about this network which you use; how and why it works and which goes where! why you do all this with so much confidence is cos of people like PH; cos they made you feel safe! and its cos of them all this goes on! we don't take any sides when it comes to the internet! we don't want any thing to be blocked or anyone to be exposed! it's a free service and should be free from any control over it! I don't know whats wrong with you guys and DO; what ever it is! leave my friend out of it!

Thanks! if you still don't know or don't get it! ask the people who knows about this SHIT!

bye

Sofwath


---------------

How many times do i have to repeat the same old shit to get the message into their slow bains!??!!

hello hilmee from thewannabemaldivian.org

hello hilmee from thewannabemaldivian.org

I just want to tell you this, if you don't have any solid facts and think you can make them up and try to convince people you are wrong. If you happen to listen to music; i am sure you would have heard the song which says "you can fool some people some times; but you can't fool all the people all the time".

Lets face the facts; don't refer to DO about PH; refer to www.freeph.org. And you say his family is not involved or is happy? dead wrong dude? you know him? or we know him and his family? this letter you talk about was given to them on the 17th of May; refer to his brother (you have the address his name is ibrey! ask him! need the number too?). It was written on 12th; but signed on 17th and given to them on 17th. Hope that clears the first part. Oh great! they have Internet access at Police jails!! daaa! thats what you are saying. I mean first you are saying DO is going on and on about PH; then you say DO is inactive since PH was arrested! man say one thing! are you lost! If PH is making DO then who is sappe'? Man you are gonna kill sappe' by breaking his heart? hehehe! i mean he works like a dog for this site; and you are giving credit to PH for it! man! now thats a joke! So what do you pick? Stick to one thing! I repeat again! first you say after Ph's arrest DO is going on and on about it! then you say Ph is making DO; and since his arrest it has stopped! so what are you trying to say! In my terms it's called "sucked off a horse". Man you are so lost and so much trying to prove shit that you also don't understand!

Ok! second fact! You say Ph is involved in DO. IF SO! READ MY LIPS! oops no you can't so READ and MARK my words! IF he was ; then you would be exposed! and so will many like you! and DO will be full of stuff that will expose so many stuff! can't you get that! I mean Internet was going between his legs! He has the full control over it! If he wanted he could read everything you send! ALL the mails you send; all the porn sites you visit! all the cyber sex you have! and also the passwords for you fucking sites! get it! And so can the rest of his gang! Won't this be worth a million dollars for the so called "Rich" and the "Power Hungry" ; what ever! GET THAT YOU FREAK! IDIOT! now beat that! and make some fucking sense! I mean fool people who don't know this shit! don't try to make up stories that you create in your own imaginary world! OK dick Head! Yeah! and if you are pissed face me and this! don't just write shit again! Every fucking this you write about PH i will disprove you and you can't defend it! By the way he worked for the only ISP in maldives as the systems admin for almost 10 years before another came in. And he was the guy who was blocking the sites too; when he gets that order from who ever guys! he is the one who trained who ever who is doing that job now! Do you know the things you have at the air ports that screens your bags? yeah which shows you x-ray kinda picture of the bags! same thing dude for your data! and everything! nothing can be hidden! thats for your information! and everything is logged everything can be traced if you have the know how and resources! so you know what he was capable of! no you don't thats why you are saying all that! cos if you knew you would not!

You guys did not know shit when you took him in; still you don't! all this articals are proving it! you guys are just making a fool out of your selves! wanna fight lets fight! don't just hide! come on face us! we are open for this talk! why are you guys hiding? scared? ey! "birun dhoa?", don't worry we won't DOS you or sniff your cyber sex sessions and expose you. ok? we respect peoples privacy! daaa!

I hope you read this! you fucking freak! yes you are!you just talk about shit you don't know! attack DO if you are pissed about Sappe' and MDP.

Dear MR. TM/Ali Asim from PO factmaldives.com

This guy TM/Ali Asim has an article on factmaldives.com . What is he saying? IS he out of his mind? He does not make any sense! I strongly suggest him to read my posts and get to know more. The ass hole does not have an idea what he is talking about! Trying to frame PH and drag him into their political games. One thing he keeps forgetting is if PH wanted to destroy him and his gang; as he is claiming. He could have done it. His name, his address everything will be out. The point here being; the reason why sites like this have been hiding behind closed doors and operating is cos PH was not on any side. If he and his friends are operating from Maldives; it's damn easy to trace them and point and EXPOSE them! Get this into your brains! But this has not been done. Which proves that PH did not have any association with DO. The real fact for Maldives being that if he was he can give sappe' the stuff that he will bend over for. That sensitive information! DO would be flooded with names and posts and emails and chat logs and addresses and other related stuff! I don't understand why these ass holes don't get this point into their stupid brains. Only think I can think of is they lack LOGIC and think from the ASS! So asshole stop trying to prove my friend is responsible for your wrong doings! And yeah since you mentioned about drug addicts I would like to express my view! Simply why? why are these people growing in numbers day by day and why is this shit getting into the country? MDP? Do they control the boarders gateways to Maldives? Now I am confused do they run the customs and the Police? Please answer me; also read if you have to. Don't BULL Shit you dumb mutt! And why do you hide and talk! Come out and face it. On www.freeph.org you will find a whole list of individuals who are fighting for PH with NAMES! Unlike you people who just hide with some name. This alone proves we have the guts to face this and we know you guys are wrong! If you wanna attack back publish your name address and contact numbers too; or if you feel you wanna talk and prove what ever u wanna prove face me; don't just hide inside an office and post. What have you done for your country? Wrote shit? And look at Ph's achievements and his contributions. You should be ashamed to even talk like that! Make some sense and logic; don't just accuse people in withoutanyfactsmaldives.com or at other sites. If you look at all these sites they are so on hiding; why? Even the registered user is some guy in UK or US. Not even maldivians! Why? What are you guys scared of? Why is that you can't face it! Like we know DO is owned by sappe' and MDP by the the mdp guys! Why are you guys hiding? If you say you speak the truth come out and don't hide; be proud! Don't hide. Answer this please. Now I am pissed with you guys! What's wrong with you guys? I really look forward to talk to you guys in real life and wanna see what kinda sense and logic you guys follow! I really do! But I know you won't. You are just scared rats; who hide and shoot!
