prosecuted implies criminal law. This, as well as all other issues dealing with licensing issues, all fall under civil law. Therefore no one is prosecuted, but rather sued by the license holder
Heh, I'm not using a big grey box either. I'm using the Soekris net4521 embedded system (http://www.soekris.com/net4521.htm) w/Pebble Linux running on a CompactFlash card. This uses very little power as well and has a very small form factor and no fan noise, not to mention I have the freedom to do whatever I want with it since I'm running Linux on it:).
Probably. And even scarier is this: What if they're sitting on a mountain of evidence that, at present would be considered illegal evidence, but with this exemption, wala....tons of now-legal evidence to "legitimately" screw people over with. A snake in the grass indeed.
Nice try you fucking snakes, but I seriously doubt the State of California would grant this type of pardon to anyone outside of local and federal state agencies, and sure as hell not for filthy organizations such as the RIAA/MPAA, given their past history of abusing laws *cough DMCA cough cough*
And yet another example of how shitty BoA really is. If they're not finding ways to fuck their customers with fee's, they're finding ways to fuck over the community. Thanks a lot guys..
Easy. Setup a Linux-based router and use HTB/iptables to prioritize your upstream. Thats what I do and it works beautifully. I can saturate my upload w/non-interactive programs (P2P, FTP, etc), and my ssh connecitons work fine. http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/ADSL-Bandwidt h-Management-HOWTO.html has a really good howto on setting up an example QoS system. It can be easily modified to suit your needs.

What else would you expect from U$A...
Just more proof that the US Patent office needs a larger staff...shit like this most likely doesn't even get looked at. They just get passed in batches then they call it a day.
Automaker Ford was ganted the following patent:
A hybrid automobile/human driving arrangement which advantageously involves humans to assist an automobile to solve particular tasks, such as transporting a human, or other non-human items such as freight...
...would be to go to your local best buy/compUSA/frys/ and get a list of the computers they're selling as "Windows Vista Capable". then go home and do some research to see which computers' hardware actually has vista-compatible drivers available...hint hint...start with the laptops..specifically ones with geforce go 7 series GPUs..im sure your findings will be interesting...
This is no longer an issue of whether or not these people are guilty of copyright infringement or not, it's a matter of the RIAA finally getting what's been coming to them for a long time...the shaft from the legal system that they've been abusing for far too long. I could care less if every once in awhile the court system does something against the RIAA that a few logical people might consider wrong. If you were the weigh the mistakes made by the RIAA vs the courts, you'd find that the former has made far more mistakes. To me, this is just natures way of evening thing out.
Well, what ends up happening a lot of the time is the most healthy family members in a Mexican family will go off to the US to work, then send the money they earn back to their families in Mexico.
Let's not forgot about the "handcuff" bug in street fighter 2. Yano, the one where if u do the flash kick just right w/Guile, you could fuck the game up so that u can carry ur enemy around where ever u want and he can't do shit until u invoke the other bug to to release him. Ahhhh memories.
I'd have to go with strafe jumping in Quake2. What better way to get the 100 health pack in q2dm1 w/out having to sacrifice precious life w/a rocket jump. w00t!
Symantec's net income mysteriously increased by $10 million....In other news, Microsoft's net income shows a decrease of $10 million. Upon investigation of Microsoft's income statement, "other expenses" showed an increase of $10 million...
Read between the lines. Microsoft doesn't do anything to benefit humanity unless it benefits themselves more (or has the potential to benefit themselves more). This has been exemplified many times in the past. This is the first step of the 'embrace, extend, extinguish' strategy.
I admit that I may be quick to call foul on Microsoft, but given their reputation, can you blame me and others for doing so?

Excite Truck is pretty gd fun. Wouldn't exactly call it a "driving simulator", but you are technically driving something.
...and I'll say it again. Take that you fuckers!
Can Novell now be prosecuted?

Maybe if enough of us come together (with money), we could get the real mafia to 'take care' of them for us =D
