I can't see the yopy homepage, so I don't know how it currently stands, but a quick look at google to try to sneak a peek at the cached copy led me to find yopy.org which points you to a debian developer's page entitled yopy sucks!.

Re:Ogg by evilviper · 2003-04-29 11:20 · Score: 1 · on AAC vs. OGG vs. MP3

Let's not consider only that Vorbis is free...but it's also further extensible. Last I knew, none of the "new" audio formats being touted could support up to 255 discreet audio channels...which could be a very big hit with multispeaker surround systems well into the future. Bitrate peeling promises to be very exciting...once the details of that are all worked out. The Ogg multimedia foundation will be a true thing of beauty.

That's not the half of it. You can have text info in an ogg, so either lyrics for your music, or subtitles for your video... You can have just about as many different groups of text as you want...

You can stick MNG animations in an ogg container, so you can do any type of losless animations you want, with anything else that you can stick in the container... Maybe you just want an MNG animation with different subtitles... Maybe you want an entire losless movie with vorbis/speex audio. Of course, you could do the same thing with VP3/Theora or MPEG4 video in the ogg as well.

And if that's not enough for you... Check out VorbisGain, which sticks comments in the ogg file, telling the decoder how to adjust the volume at each point in the file... The best thing about this, is that you don't loose any quality at all, and can always playback the original ogg by either using vorbisgain to strip the extra info, or just tell your decoder to ignore the vorbisgain info.

Ogg/Vorbis has a lot of things going for it already, and I expect even more neat hacks will be available in the future.

Shoddy Windows Media by fm6 · 2002-03-26 13:58 · Score: 2 · on iPod on Windows

If you read the site deeper you'll see that XPlay works with Windows Media Player. It does sync all your stuff.

Windows Media Player. Sigh. Well, it's not quite as flaky as WinAmp. It's not quite as poorly designed or hard to use as MediaMatch. It's not quite as bad at RealPlayer at manipulating you or your system (and fucking up the latter) or conning you into spending money you don't need to. It isn't quite as stupid as RealJukebox at managing playlists. It doesn't quite have as many weird bugs as the Windows version of FreeAmp.

Still, WMP manages to be reasonably obnoxious in each of these areas. It's the best of a bad lot -- but that's a very bad lot. You'd think with all the money to be made off of digital media, somebody would put a little thought into their product. The only Windows media player I've encountered -- freeware, shareware, adware, or commercial -- that doesn't drive me to distraction is a modest little CD utility called WhopSee.

Oh well, at least its motivation to spend more time working with Linux. Has anyone gotten around to writing a sound driver that works around the infamous CS4232 "pop" bug?

This is not new or news by ParserONE · 2002-02-02 16:25 · Score: 1 · on Security Hole in Morpheus

If the security analysts that contacted the BBC are referring to this problem. There isn't much to look at. Being a .com with little money they needed a protocol to exchange files with and they chose some form of http.

If you are running morpheus or kazaa or whatever client of the fasttrack network you can try this: open up your browser and type "http://localhost:1214"

you will see an index of all the files you are currently sharing. Just for fun you can also try to download files. If you know of a friend who is running kazaa or morpheus, find his ip and place in the place of localhost. See if he has any good pr0n.

I seriously doubt this constitutes a breach of security it doesn't reveal any information that isn't available already.

that's it. move along.

Not an Exploit by wdr1 · 2002-02-02 16:20 · Score: 1 · on Security Hole in Morpheus

From http://users.pandora.be/lechat/Morpheus%20Exploit. htm:

4. Exploit

Here are the steps for exploiting this hole:

1. Open M/K.
2. Search for anything you'd like to download.
3. Start downloading it.
4. Open a MS-DOS prompt and type "netstat -n" without the quoting marks. (This
should display all the active connections with IP numbers, not hostnames).
You should get something like 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1214" in the 'Foreign Address' column.
Where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is an IP Address.
5. Open your webbrowser and type in 'http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1214' and press enter.
6. Voila! You got the list of the shared files from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. Now you can download
any file you want, however if the user is full (meaning that he's got no more slots left)
you wont be able to download anything.

Err... isn't the same as Right Mouse Button -> Find from the same -> User built into Morpheous?

for thouse sript kiddies out there that want to exploit, here is how to do it.
http://users.pandora.be/lechat/Morpheus%20Exploit. htm

I tried that against a machine running Morpheus, and the only files that were listed were files in directories that I had told Morpheus to share. IOW, the only files made available via HTTP are the same files made available via FastTrack's protocol. Would someone like to explain to me how this constitutes a security hole? IIRC, this feature of Morpheus is documented (don't recall if it can be switched off).

FWIW, the machine running Morpheus is behind a firewall...HTTP access to it gets blocked anyway. (The little bit of testing I did was from another machine on the LAN.)

Tetris involves thinking only if... by yerricde · 2001-01-27 00:26 · Score: 2 · on Correlations Between Video Games And Academic Achievement?

there's plenty of strategical thinking in that game

Only for newbies. Once you're good at it (> 20 hours of play), Tetris does not involve all that much strategy. Eventually, placing the next tetramino becomes almost a reflex action. Some newer versions of Tetris try to break this up by adding bonuses for forming 4x4 squares (The New Tetris), chain reactions (Tetanus, Quadra, The Next Tetris), "magic" items (TetriNET; DuelTris for Apple IIGS; Tetris Jr.), or distracting display effects (TOD; Tetripz).

Like Tetris? Like drugs? Ever try combining them?
