Aimee Deep Interview
LawGeek writes "Aimee Deep is probably most famously known as the highly attractive cover-girl of Madster (formerly known as Aimster). Since being involved with Madster (her father's business), she has had the opportunity to become more interested in legal and business issues surrounding the music distribution business and now blogs on the subject. Greplaw editor Mikael Pawlo recently interviewed the 18-year old Ms. Deep on various topics."

You post something like this on Slashdot? I hear the wrists flailing away as a rush of furious masturbation is about to begin...
Kick her out of my download queue for eating crackers.
Lord have mercy on all the jokes that come with that last name.

Does her father know she dresses like that?

On a side note, this chick is hot.
Mod this down please, i can't believe i wrote it.
Check it out.

the strongest word is still the word "free"
Back when her father was just starting Madster I met him and Aimee while the guy working behind their local CompUSA's Upgrades (read: Help) Desk (Albany NY region) - got to chatting about filesharing and some of the finer legal points (particularly the differences between what we do see and ought to see) of it with them.
I dunno, she just wasn't that hot in person . . . a little too much makeup. I honestly think her father encourages it - he seemed quite proud of her being all tarted up (and I say this as a completely amoral individual - it was a bit ridiculous).
She says she hopes to fall in love, and asks "Any takers?"
*raises a hand*
Please please please mod me up to +5, so if she reads Slashdot she'll see my post!
C'mon guys...
...
I agree - this is ridiculous. There's a saying: "You used to be famous because you were somebody. Now you're somebody because you're famous."
Sure, we'd all like to see her naked and petrified with hot grits down her pants, and, like another poster said, lord have mercy on all the jokes that come with that name, but who on Slashdot could possibly care what an 18 year old poster girl has to say about the legal issues of IP?
Spare me.
"If you think education is expensive, try ignorance" - Derek Bok
Is it me or did she basically sound like a giddy 12 year old in that interview. Usually it helps to answer the question the interiewer is actually asking.
Hot is a very relative term.
Personally, I think her face is not attractive whatsoever, and her body isn't anything special.
A slip of the foot you may soon recover, but a slip of the tongue you may never get over. -Benjamin Franklin
use their body and fliting to get ahead, don't they ever want to be judged by their mind and merrits? even when you click the link for the interview her picture still stays there taking up half the frame, like its part of the content or something, and the first question is just flirty remarks.
That being said my nipples are hard and she has a great future ahead of her.
Geeks like hot girls because we typically cant get any of our own. And they're nice to look at...
'nuff said.

If you're not outraged, then you're not paying attention.
I finally figured out who this chick is from this story. It's "Aimee-Deep-Boobies-for-the-boys.png
I talked to her agent. If you want her to model with guns for you it is $500/hr.
Whenever the offence inspires less horror than the punishment, the rigour of penal law is obliged to give way...
just because she has a set of tits?
I can't stop laughing at the thought some people get obsessed with others. Like people who fantasize about actresses, musicians and now some piece of skin with two nipples (not that particularly pretty either) just because she says "yay EFF" ?
uh huh...interesting
Who gives a shit?
No, seriously. This is like interviewing Anna Nicole Smith. She got famous from
showing her tits, and now all of the sudden we're supposed to be interested in her message ?
For god's sake man, this is a geek girl.

I say this of course, because she has a spare tire.
Really though, Madster must be low on funds, because you can hire perfect 10's with much lower morals to do this stuff. I mean, look at the Linux Girl. Yum.

Everything you think you know about aimster is a complete lie. See my journal for details. In short, she had nothing to do with Aimster, nor is her name even Aimee - that was a fabrication to evade AOL's trademark lawyers (which failed miserably, which is why it's now called "Madster" - her name is Madeline). Aimster/Madster is operated by a thief and a felon (his "business partner"). As far as I can tell, the "music pundit" site is written by a third party - probably a professional writer - with all website "comments" being filtered by "Aimee's" dad.
I find it sad that Greplaw would stoop this low, but since John is a Harvard alum I guess it's easily possible that he arranged this "interview" to drum up press.
As for the interview itself, I would like to know how it was conducted. It looks to me like it was conducted over AIM, in which case I'm sure John either wrote the responses himself or was standing over the typist's shoulder coaching him/her. If it was conducted over telephone or in person I'd be very surprised.
rooooar
...I was gonna post and say "who cares about the interview, why not just go straight to the pictorial?" but you beat me to it. Well done!
For all intensive purposes, "whom" is no longer a word. That begs the question, "who cares"?
With a name like that the only "art" you're gonna sell is porn.
Intelligent writing coming from a young and attractive female... it can and does happen from time to time. I'm not sure the ACs here are going to be able to handle this...
I haven't even looked at the blog, so I'm talking out my ass here but...
who on Slashdot could possibly care what an 18 year old poster girl has to say about the legal issues of IP?
When did anyone on slashdot get such pompous standards as to what they read? God bless this site, but for Bob's sake it's nothing but a bunch of 18 year old (physically or otherwise) boys spouting off on the legal issues of IP and occasionally even more weighty topics.
If there's one place that M. Nobody Inparticular can feel free to spout off like an authority on any topic, it's got to be slashdot.
So - not to get too serious - but is the problem that she's a girl?
Cheers.
The girls round where i live all have the glazed look of sheeps. Only problem is that they still have the reflex.
Good God, another one.
Has anyone heard of this person? Does anyone care?
Kinda off-topic, but if she's 18 now, and she's been a "poster girl" for years...no, nevermind.
I worry about the sexualization (sp) of underage girls on the internet. I remember those "post pictures of hot chicks" threads at the Something Awful forums that had way too many underage girls. Perhaps an unspoken fetish?

No, the problem is that the pompous rants of the average 18 year old Slashdotter doesn't make the headlines - at best they get a +2, informative. Why should it be any different just because somebody's got a set of boobs?
I get enough of the obsession with sex at practically every other magazine, news site, TV channel etc. ad nauseam nowadays. Even the computer games magazines try to sell a few more issues with a hot chick on the cover, for Christ's sake. I want to believe Slashdot is an exception. I come here to read about tech, and to find this nonsensical celebrity worship over here as well just pisses me off.
"If you think education is expensive, try ignorance" - Derek Bok
I don't get it. She's like the Slashdotter's perfect girlfriend.... Erm.... Well... BTW, anyone have her phone-number?
folks i read that damned interview and i gotta say that i am STUNNED... stunned that someone like greplaw would actually conduct such a vapid lacking-any-form-or-substance interview with what seems to be yet another airheaded bimbo... was it just me or was that interview painful to read.. i kept getting visions of Melody from Josie and the Pussycats (the comic book not the movie).. YMMV
the interview was poor, and i would agree with teh poster who said this was probably done on AIM with her father looking over her shoulder.. her answers to some questions are TOTALLY different from the style of her answers to others.. on the whole i would say that either a. her father was coaching her (which would totally take away the point of the interview which as she so rightly said 'is about her' b. she has MPS (in which case she needs help) c. she is playing a blonde bimbo when she is really a fairly vocal and insightful person (which i doubt, but if she is, putting forward her affected "dumb blonde" persona in an interview is insulting both to the interviewer and her audience)
if you want her you can have her, but i, personally, prefer a female of more substance than aimee deep

I'm gonna have to spend like $50 in flowers and shit now!

How can she be naked and have hot grits down her pants?
Maybe that was why she removed them in the first place?
"If you think education is expensive, try ignorance" - Derek Bok
First, to all those who are wondering why we should care what this poster girl might say: spokespersons are there to get the word to the people. Have you ever known a spokesperson to give all the nitty-gritty (geeky) facts? If she can appeal to the masses about what's going on, hopefully the masses will research more. Right now, IMO the masses don't even know what is going on and at the current rate can only get pissed off after the fact.
/ARE/ trying to get the copyright law changed and you said you didn't want to do that. The message you need to be getting out is the constant amendments to the copyright law with the latest being the Sonny Bono copyright act and the DMCA, are continually increasing the protection duration to extraordinary limits. Currently I believe it's 150 years past the original filers death. Lessig is trying to show that is insane. That is a detriment to the evolution of the collective creativeness of America and the world.
Second, to the spokesmodel. If you love Lawence Lessig and other copyright guys... you need to start paying more attention to their message. It doesn't appear to me that you have because they
The latest ruling against Lessig by the Supreme court means that we need to show Congress this because the courts aren't going to help. Congress is going to continually listen to the cash flowing from the RIAA and MPAA until our voices raise up. That is what you should be doing.... getting the commoner to care about this and to lend their voice to the cause.
Could you kindly point out where these "pro's" have been hiding? Thanks.
And don't blame Slashdot for ruining your relationship. This site certianly isn't for people who have lives.
Highly attractive? Well, that's open to debate. Let's just say that I wouldn't look twice at her but, from the posts I've seen so far, there are obviously some people out there who would kill their mothers to meet this girl.
Speaking of "girl", that's exactly what she is: a girl and not a woman. If a thinly-veiled opportunity to lust over someone who's not even out of her teens is considered "News for Nerds" or "Stuff that matters" then is it any wonder that Slashdot is often laughed at by more mainstream news outlets and (IIRC) blocked by some parental control software? And I haven't even mentioned sexism.
Anyhow, all that could be excused if she had something useful (informative, insightful, interesting, funny or any combination thereof) to say. But, clearly, she doesn't. What next: interviews with Cameron Diaz on her favourite websites?
Seriously, between this story and the earlier story about (shock, horror) a review of a mobile phone, this must have been a seriously slow news day. Personally, I think it's sad that the Slashdot editors haven't yet grasped the concept that publishing for publishing's sake is a mistake rather than a necessity.

I was going to reply that this was "akin to finding in-depth political and social commentary with the celebrity-of-the-most-recent-fifteen-minutes" and "well, if JPGs of Melinda Gates in Victoria's Secret lingerie were floating around, we'd all switch to M$ in a fap-beat", but then I'se got to thinkin'.
Tradeshows have been using cheesecake models to influence the techs (and whose with the corporate pursestrings) through their dumbsticks even before Madster/Amiee was toddling in diapers. Tain't nothing new. Now she's preening and posing for her/her dad's company/standpoint.
So? Besides showing off skin and her corporate connection, is she really anyone significant techwise? Otherwise, I expect to hear from Paris Hilton on the impact of the SARS pandemic on the tourist industry.

It's like I said in a previous comment--Slashdot is not the cool tech news site it once was. It is now a corporate-owned site whose purpose is to generate geek page hits for banner ads.
Not surprisingly, the Microsoft articles always have banner ads. And what do you know? I look at the top of an obvious page-hit article like this, and it has a banner ad. Hmm.

I am just surprised that she lives that close to me! (Cohoes is a town just north of RPI, and about ten minutes down the road from Albany) I feel a bit too old for an 18-year-old geek model, though.
:)
Is it suddenly not acceptable for slashdotters to joke about the stereotypical single-34-year-old-living-in-mom's-basement image? Seems like I see a lot of posts on here along the lines of "hey, she's not so hot, I can do better than that!" No, you can't. That's why you're posting to slashdot. If you could, you'd be doing something else on a saturday night.
I get the feeling that a lot of the people here complaining that she isn't so good looking have a hidden agenda - trash-talk the attractive girl, so the other geeks think you're fighting off women with a stick. It didn't work for me, I just assumed you took a break from the pr0n to read some slashdot. I for one think she's attractive, maybe not supermodel attractive, but if I saw her on the street I'd take notice. And she lives nearby so I might just see her on the street! Then I can be all like, hey, you're that girl from Aimster, and she'd be all like yeah, that's me baby, what's up, and I'd be all like nothin, what's up with you, wanna go out for a beer, and she'd be all like I can't, I'm only 18, and I'd be like hey, how about if I bought you some beer and we drank it over at my place, and stuff. (Sorry, I'm in the middle of moving, so I'm exhausted and all I have set up is my computer)
I really hate signatures, but go to my website.
Naturally someone working for the RIAA would post things like this to discredit her.
Please note he mentions in his journal holding the source for the Mac version of Aimster/Madster hostage in PGP encrypted form because John Deep won't pay him? Is that a clue?
Nevermind that Mr. Deep has been quoted several times here on Slashdot when Aimster/Madster finds itself in another lawsuit.
Personally, I met the guy while working at their local CompUSA a few years back. He didn't seem like a tool (though his daughter looked like a cheap whore) but after reading Evro's journal (Evro would you do another update? Good read) I'm fairly convinced.
byw, you shouldn't have posted anonymously. Being able to find lots of pics of hit girls is a GOOD trait, imo.
no, i hate those skeleton things.
but hey, if you wanna spank over "unevenly fit girl", go ahead.

Dude, the average slashdotter, 18 or not, has an impressive set of boobs. Your sentence should have read "Why should it be any different just because somebody's got a set of boobs (and is a girl)?"

Ok, Just for the record I am a happily married straight male. As I was browsing through the posts, most of them sound like a bunch of sex crazed 16 year old boys. Ok, this might be a long shot, but are there any girls who read slashdot? Ok stop laughting, I'm serious. I would like to know what the ladies of slashdot think of this Aimee Deep girl. Once you take away the tits, whats left?
Not trying to be argumentative, but why is there so much resentment towards the ladies? Let's say for a second that the interview is totally boring -- it wouldn't be the first such article on slashdot, and I'm sure people would complain in the comments, but sexuality wouldn't enter into it. It's almost like the crowd here likes to penalize "just because somebody's got a set of boobs". And I see this even in the case where there's no sexuality present - only gender.
I agree all the sexmarketing is annoying -- and the tone of the article does capitalize on that to some extent. But what the heck, she's attractive and she's got slashdotesque opinions. Her visibility is probably more based on her father's connections than her gender or her comeliness.
Anyways - I'm not ragging on you in particular. Just noting this slashdot tendancy: any time a female is mentioned on slashdot her gender is a main point of discussion. As a highly geeky guy who somehow ended up with several geeky female friends, the attitude really stands out to me.
Jeez... You fellas need to get out more...
She has a nice body but she's not all that attractive.
Ahh, it's the anything-with-tits crowd...
Those who give up their power willingly deserve none.
you guys need some standards.

This, from a guy who fucks pigs?
You don't know the half of that place. Unbelievable hellhole full of absolute morons or a few trapped college CS undergrads scrambling like hell to get out- the only nice thing was that as someone with some BSD admin experience I got job offers from nearly every local ISP CEO/CTO who walked through the store. Monster.com and the want-ads don't have a thing on a good twenty minute geek discussion - it's like a job interview where you actually form a sort of bond with the interviewer, and that's an insidious thing.
Honor the warrantie? PLEASE. Those fucking warranties are about one thing: taking extra money from your pocket and putting a small fraction of it in the salesman's - on Sundays the store manager often offers triple bonuses. One of our better guys pulled off a 6-computer order the top warranties on each on such a Sunday, that's $300 bonus on his next $500 paycheck right there.

The first thing outa everyones mouth is how she's not really all that attractive. BULLSHIT. There's not a straight male reader of /. that would kick her out of your bed if she jumped in it. Thats the truth. All you other freaks talking smack about her are bullshitters.
She's damn nice looking, there are better and worse, but she's attractive, stupid comments not withstanding.
when has that stopped anyone? like whatever dude...
later!
I know you are psychotic, but please make an effort.
I will humbly submit that if you think she's 'paunchy' your sexual tastes would be better fulfilled if you look for young boys. And I want to be clear I'm not saying that to be insulting or anything - it's no skin off my butt if you like little boys, it's your choice. But if you want a woman that looks like a little boy you're going to be damn disappointed. Even the very few that look that way at 18 will fill out a few years later.
For a female, she's actually pretty damn svelt. Those models you see are deliberately chosen to look like little boys, you know. Not one woman in 10,000 looks like that naturally, even at 18.

LawGeek writes "Aimee Deep is probably most famously known as the face that demonstrated that geeks are easily manipulated by a sweet smile and the promise of a pair of tits. It says here that I'm supposed to call her "highly attractive", and that's fine, cause I've had a few, and goddam, even my cat is starting to make eyes at me. Anyhow, back to the quote whoring. Since being exploited by her obnoxious dad (boy, do I hate that bastard) as a cheap and nasty (can I say "nasty"? I mean, she's actually quite sweet, especially when she does that "can I sit on your lap and get a lolipop thing") cover girl for his cheap and nasty Napster knockoff business. He keeps telling me some big corporation is going to buy his company for billions. Damn, where was I. Oh, yeah... Since being exploited from the underage of 16 as a face for her dad's corrupt and tortured business dealings, lots of geeks seem to have gotten the hots for her. Something to do with her pics appearing on a.b.p.teen, maybe. So, we've decided it's time to give her a brain as well as tits, and we've now invented an "interview" (haha!) with my old buddy Mikael Pawlo, who will do anything for a couple of gins and a quick one behind the bar. Oh shit, can I delete that? Anyhow, he "interviewed" the girl, which took about five seconds. "Maddy," he said, "Is your dad home?" "Uh, dunno, lemme see... yeah". "Right, get the fuck off the phone and let me talk to him!". "Hey, you don't have to talk to me like that, you motherfuck, I'm famous!" "Yeah, whatever, just pass him to me"...
Sig for sale or rent. One previous user. Inquire within.
but who on Slashdot could possibly care what an 18 year old poster girl has to say about the legal issues of IP?
She doesn't sound any less coherent than the average Slashdot poster, who often speak on issues by pulling unsupported opinions directly out of their asses, without ever offering any supporting evidence other than something moronically anecdotal.
She may be something of an airhead, from the interview, but so are most of the folks here. At least she isn't an asshole to boot - and that puts her one-up right from the get-go.

Slashdot is complete today as a news service for nerds!
I suggest next interview with pamela anderson & natalie portman on EFF, Filesharing and MPAA pls.
Siggy Say, Siggy Do
Her father took / used revealing photos of her for his product? That's disgusting. I was simply rolling my eyes, before, that she gets to sit for interviews because she doesn't eat and shows herself off, but now I'm creeped out.
If she's going to market herself as a sex-symbol, then she should *be* a sex symbol, not a paunchy chick in a thong that looks like she ate the chick that's _supposed_ to be in the picture.
At least she won't pass out during sex. She's obviously healthy. Actually, she looks like she might still be a little under-weight, but not dangerously so. You obviously want her to risk her life at a dangerously low weight just so you can get your rocks off with a picture.
Asshole, women are people, NOT sex objects. I could give a flying rat-fuck how she markets herself, she's still not a sex object. A sex object is something you pay $19.99 with a credit card to have delivered at your door step in an opaque box. There ain't no picture worth starving yourself for, and no man worth it either.
I'll bet she takes better care of herself than you do. How much do YOU weigh? Is it healthy? Or are you a fat pig that's gonna die of a heart attack before the age of 40? Worse yet, are you one of those skeletons that pukes after every meal?

Which stuff, looking hot, or writing about file sharing? I think the point of this being on slashdot is that she's not just hot; she actually has some informed opinions. Yeah, 18-year-old opinions, to be sure, not all that well thought out, but entertaining to read... She's asked, how can we help your cause; she answers, "Donate to the EFF. Take me shopping."
Somebody interviewed Ms. Deep? Gee, I guess I better Read Or Die...
I can't say honestly that I know whether she is a "brainless twit" or a genius, but that interview taken literally would be reason enough to doubt her intelligence, knowledge, and/or honesty.
However, I don't where the first, or even the second, has been called into question. If she were coached or even impersonated for the interview wouldn't have much to do with her intelligence, I think.
It does read like something written by some outsider tying to appeal to the "cool young kids". It's full of platitudes, sprinkled with attempts at pseudointellectuality through name-dropping. The kind of smalltalk that wouldn't survive a casual encounter, much less an actual interview, but is the core of a successful publicity stunt.
It's reads and feels like a marketing piece, like one of those info-mercials with testimonials at 3AM, only with an MTV attitude. If it were an honest and direct interview it would mean she is as shallow as the paid hip voices of Big Media are paid to be, or that she was edited to look that way by the publication.
I prefer to give her the benefit of the doubt and assume she is willingly and intelligently doing her job: this is an ad, and either she playing her role as the shallow image of the young, hip, Madster user, or (if the interview was online) that she's letting the marketing people use her image as for any other ad.
Either way, she could be a very intelligent and professional young woman and this could still all be a manufactured interview. Considering what her job is, what the interview is about, and the actual content this seems the most likely intepretation.
Freedom is the freedom to say 2+2=4, everything else follows...
Bull-fucking-shit. She's perfect, and anyone who says otherwise has bought into the perverted ideal of feminine "fashion" where women are supposed to look like fourteen-year-old boys.
Reject the tyranny of homosexual fashion designers and magazine art directors. They are all filthy pedophile perverts. Accept women for how they ought to be.
The worst oppressors of women are faggots sucking shit off their boyfriends' cocks.

Is how this ties into "my rights online"?
Why should it be any different just because somebody's got a set of boobs (and is a girl)?

So do we all agree this article shouldn't have been on slashdot in the first place?
Speaking of cheesecake models, I really find that annoying when some corporation (be it aimster or somecorp-not-selling-girlie-stuff) believes it can sell me something with a cute looking girl!
NO ASSHOLES! I'll just look at the girl and that's FREE for me! Never gonna buy your products if you base your marketing on me being stupid! I'm not masochistic!

As someone posted earlier, at least the average slashdot poster does not make it to the frontpage and is easily ignored with the correct 'score' filter.
I am not annoyed by the fact she's answering to an interview (who wouldn't? FAME!), not even by the fact that greplaw wanted to interview her (They couldn't know beforehand she would be so flat and empty).
I'm annoyed because this way below average interview made it to the frontpage and only because she was kinda hot and remotely interested in tech.
I'm annoyed slashdot thought "Wow, this is better than chicks-with-guns! Our readers will love this interview, because it is a hot chick, and hot chicks have more rights than men or unattractive women when it comes to saying inane things!"
I think the reason why this is so, is that it's so easy to talk about these things - just repeat whatever someone else has already said a thousand times before, instant karma pouring in moments after. It's not so easy to say something meaningful about twin primes and latest additions to Java and other topics not covered in every second Slashdot article

it made itself on slashdot and know i know what madster is. thanks alot slashdot, im just that much better off now.
I know you are psychotic, but please make an effort.
This article is pure drivel. I want my time, and my computer is so offended it is asking for the bits back. Who really gives a shit about some criminal and his slutty daughter. It must be a really slow news day for Slashdot.

contrast blog-land: one person picks what gets posted. one person submits the stories. there is no moderation or editing, save the amount of blog-scene-points the blogger can accrue. comments subject to deletion.
you see anything +5 Insightful on her blog? I see plenty of 0 Redundant. the problem's not that she's a girl. the problem is that she's ignorant+dogmatic.
it's called copyright infringement and it is a civil matter, not a criminal matter. you serve prison time for felons. you pay fines for copyright infringement.
MORTAR COMBAT!
What nobody seems to have pointed out are that the two images of "Aimee Deep" - one on Madster.com, and one on MusicPundit.com - don't look like the same person!
Exhibit A
Exhibit B
Maybe because most of the slashdot population will listen to women who are older than they are?
All that needs to happen for Slashdot to become Fark is to have posted this story under the heading "Boobies."
... have a brain, but that's not what she's out to display for marketing purposes. She really didn't say anything too insightful in that interview. Anyone from her (and my) generation can talk about the evils of the big media and their approach to copyright.

Incite and flee.
Or maybe its a slashdot reader that has beliefs that conflict with promiscuity.
Or the more likley, she jumps into a guys bed and he thinks GREAT! I am gunna get some sweet lovin' from a girl that may or may not be attractive but is definantly not hideous. Then she informs him that he is not getting anything, so the guy wants to go to bed and have some sleep, but NO! He can't because she is there.
Or maybe that guy is Bill Gates or Steve Balmer or something and he knows that this is just a ploy by her so she can castrate him.
And the punchline is...... This is because he knows that since MS is against the use of UNIX it would be ironic if it was run by one. *ducks flying fruit*

Fame, as she walked at evening in a city, saw the painted face of Notoriety flaunting beneath a gas-lamp, and many kneeled unto her in the dirt of the road.
"Who are you?" Fame said to her.
"I am Fame," said Notoriety.
Then Fame stole softly away so that noone knew she had gone.
And Notoriety presently went forth and all her worshippers rose and followed after, and she led them, as was most meet, to her native Pit.

What the hell is wrong with you? She looks like she's in pretty decent shape to me. A lot better than I was at 18, or even 15. I'm sorry that curves turn you off. I'm even more sorry that you help to perpetuate the idea that women have to starve themselves and work out obsessively to be beautiful.
If you think she's a fat cow, I'd hate to know what you think about me. (I was 17-18 when these pictures were taken.)
But if starved chicks are the only ones attractive to you, I guess you've been single for a while now, huh?

a teenage girl. Which is exactly what she is. No, she's definitely not a geek (sorry). She does seem to know a little bit more than her peers about copyright and the courts.. which is to say, not much. There's some intelligence there - whether it's hers or she was fed some answers, I can't tell. I hope she doesn't go into a career in modeling, especially if she does actually have some brains.
Finding out that most of those pictures were taken while she was underage... all I can say is her dad must have serious problems to let her, nay encourage her, to do that.

1250 a week before taxes in that tax bracket with more than one mouth to feed and the high cost of just "getting by" make that much money not that much in reality. I make a bit more than that and I have threee dependants. I'm taxed pretty heavily, I don't own a home, after state and federal taxes and my bills (including gas diapers etc) there isn't a whole lot left over to save with. I think it really depends on your location and how many people you have to support with those dollars. If you make that salary in Kentucky you can probably live very nicely. In the New England area its really tough to live on that kind of money unless your willing to drive over an hour away from the big cities (assuming you work in them).
Now all that being said...it really doesn't matter if he saved...he was screwed out of $7500. So even if he spent all his money buying hookers and toy Evils dolls its still moot since the point is that he was lied to and screwed with and at the end of it all he didn't even get paid.

Hmmm this is usually the argument really really ugly chicks and lesbians use.
Except that I'm a man with a pretty attractive wife. :) We've eliminated sexism in our house completely. She opens doors for me, I open them for her, and so forth. We have a 4-year-old daughter (and a son, and another one coming) to whom we intend not to teach sexism as a way of life. They'll learn about it sooner or later, but we want them to learn it as something "some people do", rather than "the way it is".
For fuck sake, I opened the door for the woman once who was obviously struggling as she had her arms full of books. Instead of saying thank you the bitch went off at me saying she could have handled it herself and didn't need a man to be helping her in any way. Reminds me of the time I got up off the seat in a train for a pregnant woman who also started rambling the same shit.
Man, fuck those women. I hate that shit. If you had opened the door for a man, would he have gone off on you? Probably not. He'd probly say thank you and go in the door. Would those same chicks have done the same if the tables were turned? (Obviously you wouldn't be pregnant with a woman offering you a seat on the bus... hmmm....) If the psycho lady who didn't like you opening the door for her would have opened the door for you if your arms were full, then who the fuck is she to bitch? Sorry, this stuff pisses me off. Pisses me off when it happens to me, pisses me off when it happens in general. It's obviously people not thinking. YOu should've kicked her ass. "Bitch, want to be equal? Then you can take an equal beating." Heh. It's amazing, to me, how many of these women shy away when you offer to smack 'em the same way you'd smack a man for the same shit. "I'm a woman, don't hit me!"
Not that I think violence is a good thing, or anything, but in these cases a little fist-waving can be very revealing (and can get your ass kicked).
Like what I said? You might like my music
Anybody notice that for 18, she sure knows a lot about Copyright law?
No offense, I'm sure there are some smart 18 year olds out there, but the way "Aimee" speaks sounds more like her dad (or some other executive) was in fact interviewed. Sure, it has the obligatory "Oh m'Gods!" thrown in to make it sound like it's her, but as to the issues at hand, I know of no 18 year old who knows any more about copyright law other than "Ya mean, I can't just burn a copy of the new Eminen CD for all my friends!?!".
While I appreciate any positive commentary on the abuse of the Act by the media entertainment, I'd expect more from GrepLaw as to whom they choose to interview.
-A
I've never even heard of her and never really expect to see anything else from her. However, I think her story has a right to be posted here, If only because she is a part of "Geek" culture. Even if it is in the same regards as goatse.cx.
That would be for circumventing digital copy protection, which P2P software does not do. P2P software, unless it uses some built-in DeCSS to descramble DVD on-the-fly, is not touching digital copy protection at all. It is illegally copying files, not circumventing access to those files.
MORTAR COMBAT!
I should have read your link before responding, I just assumed that you were linking to the DMCA.
... which have a total retail value of more than $2,500
What you linked to is actually fairly interesting, however you actually highlighted reasons why P2P users are not guilty of this charge.
distribution
Those so-called "greedy" users which do not serve (i.e., distribute) the works are not included in this clause. In addition, at $0.99 per song retail value (several sites now offer this) that is 2500 songs in a 180-day period. Not a high percentage of the P2P users distribute 2500 songs in a 180-day period.
The other half of Title 17, Chapter 5, Section 506 states the other way for copyright infringement to be criminal: for purposes of commercial advantage or private financial gain. Most P2P users are not selling these songs for profit.
Also of importance is the following: evidence of reproduction or distribution of a copyrighted work, by itself, shall not be sufficient to establish willful infringement.
MORTAR COMBAT!
The girl's last name is "DEEP"!
For the love of God, run with it!
Where are all you humor writers?
That's GOLD!
HA HA! Man, she can't be 18, she's got to be some sort of paid spokersperson. She might as well be a pornstar and call her Aimee Deep(throat).
Wish I could figure out who you are, then...

You had friends across the hall from me this year. You never stopped to say hello
Dude, I just finished my senior year. I have friends all over campus, ranging from freshman to super-duper-seniors. You're going to have to be a bit more specific...
Er, anyway, you definitely are not fat. (Based not on the pictures...
Never said I was. I'm just larger-than-average.
Oh, and how's Dark Cloud going? I still think the sequel is far better...
I haven't played Dark Cloud much since last summer. Haven't had time, with MQP and trying to graduate, and all. Haven't seen the sequel, though people speak highly of it. (relatively, anyway)
My curiosity has gotten the better of me. Someone at WPI.. most likely male (duh, at WPI)... have spoken to him about female body-image issues, and has seen me play/spoken to me about Dark Cloud... Who are you???!! If you don't want to give up your identity, you could always email me.
