Loose virginity now or suffer sexual problems later?

Posted by webstuffscan on 16th December 2007

sex icons Every day you see crazy studies popping out from different so called "expert" institutions. One day you see that mobile usage can cause brain tumour and in the next month you hear that it is not brain tumour but tongue cancer!  Never, I repeat, never believe in any of these studies. Most of these are done on a ridiculously small test data that you should be a perfect idiot to believe in them.

Now the latest in these studies is this one on sex and virginity. According to researchers in Columbia university, people who start sex at a later age appear to have more sexual health problems! According to them, people who started sex at 22 or later had difficulty in erection and orgasm!

Now here is the catch!  It is not possible to determine cause-and-effect from the survey data, according to the researchers. Why? Young men with sexual problems may start having intercourse at a later stage, contributing to the link between sexual debut and sexual problems!  Ha ha, really nice touch there!

Here is a counter proof I can offer. The guys at Columbia university used a sample data of 8000 US adults. In my counter proof, I will use a sample data of 1200 million Indian adults! In India, a significant majority of population engage in sex over 25 years of age. But we have the highest fertility rate and our population is exploding! Now eat that! :-)

How to make quick money if you are a domain registrar

Posted by webstuffscan on 2nd March 2007

Making money if you are a domain registrarDomains are extremely cheap these days. So as a domain registrator, it is difficult to make some nice cash. But if you adopt the following technique, you might be able to make a good amount of money with minimum effort and time.

  1. Find domains with non-working/incorrect email addresses that are registered with you.
  2. Shortlist valuable domains from the above list. Look at the traffic, links and domain name value.
  3. Ask your relative/friend to backorder the domain.
  4. Send mails to the wrong/incorrect email asking the domain owner to correct his email address(!)
  5. After 8 weeks, delete the original registration and transfer the domain to your friend/relative.
  6. Profit!!!

Here is a funny Javascript hack I across in digg.

1. Open any Website which contains images. Google image search or a Flickr page is best.

2. In the Address bar, replace URL with the following text.

javascript:R=0; x1=.1; y1=.05; x2=.25; y2=.24; x3=1.6; y3=.24; x4=300; y4=200; x5=300; y5=200; DI=document.images; DIL=DI.length; function A(){for(i=0; i-DIL; i++){DIS=DI[ i ].style; DIS.position=’absolute’; DIS.left=Math.sin(R*x1+i*x2+x3)*x4+x5; DIS.top=Math.cos(R*y1+i*y2+y3)*y4+y5}R++}setInterval(’A()’,5); void(0);

3. Click on Go!

Don’t get scared if things looks pretty scary :) This basically rotates all the images in the current Webpage.

What happens when you sleep at your office?

Posted by webstuffscan on 22nd January 2007

Head Honcho Michael is out of town right now, so apparently ANONYMOUS LAZY HAPPY DREAMHOST EMPLOYEE thought it’d be fine to sneak in a little nap on his office couch. And it would have been fine, if he could have only kept his pants on.

Dreamhost guys, This is not fair! Giving your employees too much work and then posting their ‘compromising’ photo is not fair at all..

How many can fit on a motorbike?

Posted by webstuffscan on 12th January 2007

Well, in Cambodia upto 6 is not a problem :)

Anyone who has traveled in Southeast Asia knows that the motorbike is a form of ‘mass transit’….it is not uncommon to see three or four on a bike; sometimes five, as in the image below…..I kept wondering if I would be able to see six on a bike….finally in Phnom Penh I saw them coming and was appropriately acknowledged as the tourist I was by the young man in front….

Pretty scary!
