A new key on my physical keychain to play with in the digital world...
I bought an Athena USB cryptographic token through Trustbearer Labs. First out of the gate is that I re-delegated my OpenID to Trustbearer's OpenID Provider and now am officially too secure for most normal OpenID usages (blog comments). Oh well, I'm hoping to play with the token and see what other cool things I can do... Right now I'm mostly curious if I can use it for OpenSSH keys...
On the OpenID front, I've been contemplating for a while that I want to switch from the current version of django.contrib.comments to django-threadedcomments. If I were to do the switch it would be a good opportunity to add in some niceties for people that want to login/validate with an OpenID... not that I get a lot of comments clamoring for such things, but mostly because I think it would be nice to have.
From the Telltale Interloper: Mike Stemmle shows up
Mike Stemmle is quite the legend in game writing for his credits on Sam and Max: Hit the Road and even Escape from Monkey Island (yes, it had good writing once you realized that it wasn't a Ron Monkey Island, much less a true sequel to the non-Ron Curse that would have been nice to have). This is great news for Telltale as the number of crazy funny writers that understand adventure game writing increases.
Unfortunately I'm assuming this is bad news for Star Trek Online. I knew the rumors have said that the project is all but dead, but considering that Mike Stemmle as STO head writer was one of the key things that gave me any hope at all for the project in the first place... It's certainly dead to me now if it has lost a talented head writer.
