Fun with military ID

So, being in the military, I get one of these nifty little dealies. I never bothered to look into them, but I saw a USB reader for $25 when they shipped us out for training, so I figured, what the hell.

I haven’t bothered to get really into smartcard hacking (yet?), but I have got it locking and unlocking my screen (and other assorted fun things when my friends plug their cards in).

More fun with spam

I was adding more bells and whistles to my mail system — this time, a command-line program to parse through SpamAssassin’s configs and tell you about rules, and one to add headers as such — when I realized that all that data I was basing the pointless little graphs in my earlier post on was a little rough, and SpamAssassin already has the data on what I consider ham and spam. D’oh!

So, here’s another one, based on sa-learn --dump magic. (Here’s source.)

Fun with spam

I was tweaking my email system when I started wondering: what are the most popular hits against SpamAssassin?

So, I wrote a program to find out. :-)
