Might have guessed, all of them seem to feature ridiculous music, unnecessary commentary and/or run of the mill conspiracy theories/end of the world prophecies.
Would've hoped http://www.youtube.com/user/nasatelevision had something but so far the most informative I came across was http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DE6sPnm4Pk (at least you can mute it)

Count me in for avahi, our office network uses .local, if avahi is running nothing in LAN works.
While I realize mDNS isn't his fault there should definitely be a user friendly option to disable it (on install time or like that "Proprietary drivers available" popup on Ubuntu).
Still, have to wonder how much wasted time has this guy's creations imposed on the world.

He did much more than that, apparently he also brought down PSN and told someone how to reset COD stats

That's what happens when these ignorant illiterate dummies learn to associate a name to a thing, doesn't matter what he actually did, PS3+hack=? "George did it! Tar and feathers!"
And that was his downfall, to promote a name and provide a target (at least a better one than a faceless corporation).
Had he cured cancer it'd still all come down to "I heard he did something, then Sony did something and something bad happened to my PS3, what an asshole".
