Department of Dirty will help Cameron depornify the Internet

by Cory Doctorow

Pam writes, "Open Rights Group has produced a new satirical film to raise awareness of internet filters - a spoof campaign by the 'Department of Dirty'."

Ever thought the internet was just too big? Want to help clean up online filth? Welcome to the Department of Dirty

Watch the Department stop one man try to get one over us with his 'spotted dick recipe'.

The Department of Dirty is working with internet and mobile companies to stop the dirty internet. We need you to help us take a stand against blogs, charities and education websites, many of which are thankfully blocked by filters.

Department of Dirty (Thanks, Pam!)

Entire Firefly cast coming back for Firefly Online

by Steve Watts

The cult hit TV show Firefly is getting a comeback of sorts. Firefly Online, the social RPG announced last year for PC and mobile, will have the entire original cast reprising their roles.

io9 reports that Alan Tudyk, who played the pilot Wash in the show, will be playing multiple roles. He has done some pretty diverse voice work for Disney movies like Wreck-It Ralph and Frozen, so that makes sense. At least one minor character will be showing up as well: Michael Fairman as the torture-happy crime boss Niska. 

Firefly Online is all about getting your own ship and crew and taking on missions, rather than playing as the Serenity crew themselves. Presumably, though, this news means you'll cross paths with them at some point. 

We also got a first look at gameplay in a new trailer, full of Firefly fans and a Jayne hat.

'Father of the internet' Vint Cerf explains how web addresses work

by Sean Buckley
For most of us, browsing the web is pretty easy: type in a domain name, mash the enter key, and well, here you are. Behind the scenes, however, it's a mess of IP addresses, numbers and international stake holders. Part of ICANN's job is sorting all...

Oh, is thaaaat all? A pittance.

There were so many TVs on display back at CES, that you'd be forgiven if they all blended together. So allow us to give you a recap: The Samsung UN105S9W was, in the company's own words, the "world's first, largest and most curved 105-inch curved UHD...
