  1. Re:Damnit, it won't run on Solaris! by beebware · · Score: 1 · on Intervideo LinDVD 'To Be Released'

    If they are selling it for 'Linux' and we try an run it on something like ARM Linux - we could have a very good case.

    It'll be questionable who will actually buy it - very small market base (1 variant of Linux) and many people who do have Linux will know where to get DeCSS etc.

    I can't see it selling myself.

  2. Re: was /. votes on best hack ever by beebware · · Score: 1 · on Hoax-a-go-go!

    Strangly enough, I have never received Good Times or the Bill Gates hoaxes - are these for real or just urban legends? :)

    Nor have I received Mellissa - which is a shame cause I wanted to examine the source code (it couldn't infect my system anyway).

    Has anyone else noticed that in the last few weeks the mainstream media seem to be taking a 'higher than normal' interest in these sort of things (.net in the UK's done recent features).

    Somes I wonder who actually wrote the original hoaxes - you never see anyone claim the credit do you? I recent email I received placed the blame on aliens trying to overload our technology - I believe every word of it :)

  3. Re:Confused by beebware · · Score: 1 · on Game Companies Sue Yahoo!

    Yahho! has its own auction site ( http://auctions.yahoo.com IIRC) and obviously people have been auctioning off illegal warez. While I'm in all favour of suing Yahoo! (being a editor of ODP), and I support the companies in preventing software piracy, we have got to ask ourselves what will happen to other auction sites like eBay etc.
