DVD player brand new. DVD disk set brand new. DVD disk set #1 returned with nic's. DVD disk set #2 couldn't be returned cause I waited too long.
Error with nicking only happens on DVD disk #1.
You could watch a beer box full of stargate, atlantis, pirates of the caribean, deadwood v1,2,3, Miami Vice many volumes, 300, Highlander, basically about 4 boxes of shit work just fine, then put that disk #1 from Hamlet in and click click click, nick nick nick. On load...
And you blame this on a brand new DVD player?
It's not the hardware, It's the software on DISK #1 Hamlet. (Which cost over $20 at the time) I know the difference between a hardware and a software problem.
Disk 1 played one time, then froze in the middle, (with lots of noise at the beginning/load) it started chirping, clicking and clacking and got all nicked up. Disk 2 played perfect.
I never even got to SEE the thing. I took it back got another. SAME THING.
This time, I took it to a local gamestop to have them buff the nic's out.
No we don't need a violent revolution. Saying such things, just get's you tagged by the corrupt DHS. (Unless of course your an agent provocateur.)
It's called "Transparency." It goes back to the days, where voting the wrong way and your enemy finds out they kill you. Which is why it had to be a secret vote with public oversight.
Now while I don't claim to know your motivations, the fact our vote has to have transparency, should be a clear message to the people there are internal threats to our constitution, and our very existence.
I always "refuse to put my ballot into the scanner", and force them to open the AUX tray. they empty the tray at the end of the election, (or so they say) and send it to the SOS headquarters to be scanned, I dread this shit. I've seen many things at polling places that are wrong, yet I could be arrested if I took a picture, or video. Somehow corporate media get's access to take photos and video, but they always say, "look how smooth the election is going." When in reality it's completely fucked up.
If you knew how many errors an OCR does, you wouldn't feed your ballot in that piece of shit either scanner.
But still either way, (Scanner or AUX tray) I don't know what truly happens to my vote.
And if you say you do, you lie. I'd like to think my vote counted, but I will never really know as long as these electronic vote tabulation devices exist.
Actually the USAF is concerned about kill switches and other hidden logic built in at the doping level, and while the do play red team blue team with such devices, sadly the only way to truly find out is to destructively reverse engineer the chip. The only other way is to have 100% trust in the doping source, while maintaining 100% chain of custody.
Meanwhile, out on the flightline, a tech sign's off that red x when the system is tested and working, "op's check good." It still doesn't mean it's working properly.
Working correctly is meaningless with no transparency, chain of custody or public oversight.
Also jets fly every day, electronic voting machines sat in storage, then had sleepovers. Where the machines were physically sitting in a poll worker's living room.
The problem with electronic vote tabulation devices differs from "state secrets" when we start getting into things like "public oversight." Public oversight is impossible when humans walk into the Secretary of State's office, go through some training, then head out to their polling place with with no spectrum analyzer, meter, freq counter, or logic analyzer.
I remind you, this is what we have now. And I am not making an argument for poll workers to have such tools, as that would be insanely stupid.
Even if poll watchers knew basic, or assembly, or electronics, or physics, they can't be allowed to access the code or allowed into the machine while an election is live because our elections must have transparency. If you can read the code during a live election, while you might consider this partial public oversight (from a purely technical standpoint), you no longer have transparency. Transparency is essential to our elections. While you might argue you have a right to give your transparency up (ala the Astronauts), you don't have a right to force anyone else to give their transparency up. And if your reading the code, it's trivial to change the code or modify the data.
This isn't just about code, it's also about firmware, and hardware!
Interestingly (diebold/premier/sequoia/es&s Whatever they call themselves) tech's have reported as being allowed access to service machines during live elections.
Electronic vote tabulation devices fail us at every step, Trust of the Doping Source, Chain of Custody, Public Oversight, and Transparency. Whoever pushes them to be allowed into our elections, clearly wants to subvert our government. While those who were accepting of such subversion early on were not fully informed, and others were clearly corrupt. There can be no excuse anymore.
Yet know this information and still here we are with these devices subverting our elections still to this day. So called "corporate journalists" do not touch this topic. And now they want internet voting?! These people can't even publish documents on their websites correctly.
And for the argument, "the handicapped need access to ballots so we need ballot marking devices."
Utter nonsense, and frankly the subversive lie which has been used to stuff this cruft down our throats from the sources which are either uninformed or corrupt.
We didn't use electronic devices in our elections in the 1700's and we don't need them today. The dilemma of you being disabled does not give you the right to subvert the entire election process by enabling invisible electronic exploits to be targeted against everyone else.
Now that some of you are catching on about how electronic vote tabulation devices can not be trusted, (from the doping level, to the firmware, and and finally software) you've just been "routed around" once again, as the EVM's are now shifting gears and upping the ante by changing the game with "internet voting", the ultimate unvalidatable nightmare.
A pollwatcher, still can't see the electronic signals in any of these devices.
So while everyone tech savvy sit's there and argue's over open source, closed source, you ALL fail to understand or even begin to come to grips with a term and a little law called, "Public Oversight" and furthermore, "Transparency." Both of which are already available in a high tech technology called paper ballots.
But you continue on pretending, and dick measuring. Hey it's only America you'll destroy with this same old stinking corrupt oath of office breaking, unaccountable, fucking 2 party nonsense which has created wars, removed our constitution and bill of rights, plundered $65 trillion from ponsi schemes while the Senate willingly lets it happen, Torture, Rendition.

And also mr Robins0n meth'd "One transparent box with a lid for each choice plus one additional box if there's a write-in candidate."
Whoops there goes your TRANSPARENCY. Watching voters walk around reading boxes with CHOICE NAMES ON THEM?!... hmm third box on the left is...X, you just voted for X.
Come on. Enough of this *SHIT* already!
You want to get the corruption out of our government, you better fucking outlaw electronic voting machines, and their electronic POLL BOOKS too. Results should be FACE TO FACE, and only then after the final tabulation should ANYONE post this shit on the web. Enough of this % results in, when the fucking election polls are not even CLOSED yet.
A manageable time-frame, is no excuse for not protecting classified, secret, or top secret information, it's a serious security breach, which seems to be rampant throughout government agencies as of late.
At minimum, it's a reason to revoke all line-badges, and force everyone to prove innocence, be detained, disciplined, fired, jailed, and possibly executed.
We got seriously corrupt people walking the halls of our government offices, accessing networks, and abusing power, masking crimes under the guise of "state secrets", re-writing history, and blackmail.
This isn't your telemarketing network admin job, backing up the number list, it's fucking tyrany, and treason! And all you nay-Sayers need to wake the fuck up from your dreamworld, and smell the coup.
You don't fucking TRUST anyone!
1. Not the media. 2. Not your poll worker when you vote. 3. Not even me.
You validate, you prove it.
At the top of the thread I suggested the man number who checked out the device, should be questioned, but what if one of the other 100 line badges stole the item? A setup for someone who may be patriotic but screwed the pooch on a lunch break, or actually filled all paperwork out correctly, but someone penetrated the area and stole it.
I have to reply, since out of ALL these posts I haven't seen one stating the obvious.
Not only are you searched, but your name, (or man number), can simply be read from the vault inventory list with "exactly what is in your possession" from the vault. The "time" you signed it out, the "time" you signed it in and put it back on the shelf and it was verified by at least one person.
Right? Right?!!
So my question is, who's man number is in the forms, for the item? Go there, and find where the drive is.
Until then, you have 100 folks with line-badges that need to be revoked, and detained.
"give them 60 days to get their wires out of our dirt and then sell the franchise to provide network services to a competitor who will promise to give us a solid digital future in exchange for our generosity."
What generosity? The city owns the land they're using, not you.
The same argument should be applied by the FCC across the broadcast spectrum. Look how corporate media abuses the frequency allocations they have now.
Yeah and if we are not careful, the web will effectively get a massive haircut from over regulation and cost, thereby ending the last place we can get information outside of the corporate media.
If you look at the big picture from a US perspective, we've lost the constitution, privacy, our monetary system is over leveraged, and what could possibly be next? Censorship via destruction of the web.
I really don't want another sidebar forced next to my wonderful scrapbook extension.
It seems to me bookmark organization, and scrapbook organization type of applications are well suited to the sidebar as they are generally searched or worked on, then closed.
Where tabs keep multiple websites and documents open to work, cut, paste all without screwing with the width formatting of a website.
I run dual 22" lcd's because video, and webpages were getting wider. And my head / brain ? hurt from my giant dual sun 21" frequency humming via radios and the RF ack! That and deskspace..
To play devils advocate though: some myspace pages are completely out of control where width is concerned (hello tom), mostly cause folks don't keep the comments contained. Why you have to have a band flyer that's wider than 450 I dunno...bah..)
Anyway, leave the tabs alone. Fix the font or the tabbar's height or something, if it's really that much of a problem.
Seems to me the whole problem with the current tabs we use is overkill in the context menus on them.
Example: why do we need an X on the tab, when you can doubleclick to close it, And right click to close it. Would it not be more simple to doubleclick the tabbar for a new tab and doubleclick the tab to close it. putting a single small pop-down menu for "open in new window" (for those javascript() problems) or undo close tab, when you get over zealous. While Bookmark the tab, Reload, etc are all redundant. Favicon should always replace the SITE
For example: a tab on slashdot, should be
favicon | thread description
Shifting gear.
I don't see very many non scroll mice anymore which don't have middle click / open in tab, which I would have to say 99% of the time is the way I go.
If you really want to take out tabs, attack Mozilla, not firefox. To be honest, even though I probably should care about Mozilla, I don't. I honestly only care about firefox. It may be bad for me to think like this, but I won't lie about it either. Really, when I couldn't be bothered to panzer netscape anymore is about the time I dumped the older mozilla.
Finally, I hate Grouping, it's an extra level of nonsense to drill down through. And.. Anything that behaves like a ribbon is to be avoided as well. -IMO
I'm scared to change from what's working perfectly currently. XP behind a linux firewall. Will my lexicon[s] work still? I don't really know. I ain't willing to find out yet. I don't even care if it's being given away free for a year, since my old hardware is now starting to shift though and become my new hardware. The old amd kX's are now the new firewall/router. fans are clogging and dieing and burning up higher level components. note: it's not the fans that are the worry, I can pick them up for a couple bucks, but I can just plunk out xxx for a firewall, xxx for a server, xxx for a text workstation, etc. I can't even find a telemarketer network to build right now. I could make 100k a year easy on that shit. And what are they runnin? XP, 200X, PBX's... I don't hear em talking about Vista or 2008. How about you? You willing to dump all your boat anchors for lightweight, expensive blazing fast quad cores? Do you even still have a job?
Sony pictures is going anywhere. Universal isn't either, or 20th Century Fox. They all need to be aware of the danger of pushing too much harder in the current economic climate.
The reason their profits are down currently is because the whole economy is down. Instead of lobbying for their own interests, they should be putting pressure on Congress to prosecute the bankers, Prime, Sub-Prime, CDO's etc. Forcing Mark to Market, or Cram downs. Perhaps if Sony Pictures CEO can convince Congress to stop allowing the banksters to steal from the Taxpayer via the bailouts, Sony (all branches from their games, music label, to NLE software) would be more profitable. I actually like some of Sony's products--Sony Vegas, DVD Architect, and Sound Forge. At the same time, I do not like their root kits on audio CD's, or this CEO's fucking attitude. If he really thinks the net isn't worth it, he should have construction crews, yank out all the computers, networks and phones in all his offices, buildings, render farms, and studios.
Or he could just have a nice cup of shut the fuck up, and be glad he makes a couple grand from idiots like me.
Yes, my email client supports html emails. It even has it enabled by default. But because of that, I changed it to show text version to me before and just when I click it will show me the html version
I think you mean . . .
a.) html ALWAYS OFF by default b.) show SOURCE CODE when you click
Include with each IBM software DVD... (yeah I hear ya about the bloat) some killer ganja (no problem so far) laced with rocket fuel and elephant tranq (whoop whoop problem), and tell the user to take a hit and hold it for 15 seconds, before thrashing the pop3 server.
Alternatively, if IBM wanted the user to save money, the user could huff paint, (MEK)methyl ethyl keytone, or whipped cream while smoking parsley and sativa.
I've also noticed if you get punched hard enough, you can see colors for awhile, perhaps we can let the CIA work some ass over a bit. Or rig an iron pan to distribute a whack on the side of the head?
And I personally watched his fucking piece of oath of office breaking shit face be took-en down off the fuckin wall because he was proven a fuckup!
Rumsfield is a shit talking oath breakin motherfucker, and why anonymous coward don't do nasty goatse anagrams on that we will never know?!
Oh wait, I am anonymous coward...
To be honest though, I'm worried about his brightest bulb. Is it the missing nuke? Is it the United States's excuse to remove all rights from the people?
safe from terrorist attack, while dumped into unconstitutional hell, the next bright white light will be the complete removal of all rights, and considering we have a fucking nuke missing I know it's from the dark side of the globalists.
We don't need another PSA for a problem after the fact.
We need cheap affordable firewall appliances in front of the boxes facing the web.
Think about it, we just did this (similarly) with the DTV / ATSC roll out.
And before someone say's there already are available, I would have to point out no they are not available like the ATSC tuners. And I don't see the US Government funding say IPCop and corporate media running ad's on getting your firewall up.
Schools don't teach the kids either. Sure they teach them how to open a word doc, but they don't explain network security. It's a real skill set that kids graduating high school should have. They should know iptables, or pf. They should know what an ISA network card is vs a PCI card.
But I can't find one for $50 that the government pays me back $40 with a coupon.
If big brother should be hawking something, it should be hardware firewalls not anti-virus software.
A virus doesn't get on your computer by itself. It has to be run somehow. You have to run it. The skill set to track down a virus and remove it without any anti-virus software should be taught as well. At best anti-virus software is a tool to help you find something bad. Look at the windows log files. What good is it? Sure isn't like/var/log/messages where you can actually find something bad going on. I doubt most users ever look at windows logs in their entire life. On the other hand linux users learn early on to read the logs.
We need to keep the bad packets out in the first place in my opinion. Every anti-virus software I have ever used (some better than others) gives false positives, and also sucks up productivity resources. We need to get work done not deal with a warning / pop-up every time we restart some program. Also, I have written bad programs going completely undetected by anti-virus.

It was new at the time this happened.
The disk #1 was new from TWO NEW DVD packages, both times when it happened.
No other disk has had a problem playing.
No other disk has been nicked since.
The dvd recorder device is still fully operational and in service.

If you look at the big picture from a US perspective, we've lost the constitution, privacy, our monetary system is over leveraged, and what could possibly be next? Censorship via destruction of the web.
Who profits? Globalists do. Corruption does.
Please don't remove the tabs.
I really don't want another sidebar forced next to my wonderful scrapbook extension.
It seems to me bookmark organization, and scrapbook organization type of applications are well suited to the sidebar as they are generally searched or worked on, then closed.
Where tabs keep multiple websites and documents open to work, cut, paste all without screwing with the width formatting of a website.
I run dual 22" lcd's because video, and webpages were getting wider. And my head / brain ? hurt from my giant dual sun 21" frequency humming via radios and the RF ack! That and deskspace..
To play devils advocate though: some myspace pages are completely out of control where width is concerned (hello tom), mostly cause folks don't keep the comments contained. Why you have to have a band flyer that's wider than 450 I dunno...bah..)
Anyway, leave the tabs alone. Fix the font or the tabbar's height or something, if it's really that much of a problem.
Seems to me the whole problem with the current tabs we use is overkill in the context menus on them.
Example: why do we need an X on the tab, when you can doubleclick to close it, And right click to close it. Would it not be more simple to doubleclick the tabbar for a new tab and doubleclick the tab to close it. putting a single small pop-down menu for "open in new window" (for those javascript() problems) or undo close tab, when you get over zealous. While Bookmark the tab, Reload, etc are all redundant. Favicon should always replace the SITE
For example: a tab on slashdot, should be
favicon | thread description
Shifting gear.
I don't see very many non scroll mice anymore which don't have middle click / open in tab, which I would have to say 99% of the time is the way I go.
If you really want to take out tabs, attack Mozilla, not firefox. To be honest, even though I probably should care about Mozilla, I don't. I honestly only care about firefox. It may be bad for me to think like this, but I won't lie about it either. Really, when I couldn't be bothered to panzer netscape anymore is about the time I dumped the older mozilla.
Finally, I hate Grouping, it's an extra level of nonsense to drill down through. And.. Anything that behaves like a ribbon is to be avoided as well. -IMO
Hell I said that all wrong, but it's close. Fuck it.
I'm scared to change from what's working perfectly currently. XP behind a linux firewall. Will my lexicon[s] work still? I don't really know. I ain't willing to find out yet. I don't even care if it's being given away free for a year, since my old hardware is now starting to shift though and become my new hardware. The old amd kX's are now the new firewall/router. fans are clogging and dieing and burning up higher level components. note: it's not the fans that are the worry, I can pick them up for a couple bucks, but I can just plunk out xxx for a firewall, xxx for a server, xxx for a text workstation, etc. I can't even find a telemarketer network to build right now. I could make 100k a year easy on that shit. And what are they runnin? XP, 200X, PBX's... I don't hear em talking about Vista or 2008. How about you? You willing to dump all your boat anchors for lightweight, expensive blazing fast quad cores? Do you even still have a job?
Sony pictures is going anywhere.
Universal isn't either, or 20th Century Fox.
They all need to be aware of the danger of pushing too much harder in the current economic climate.
The reason their profits are down currently is because the whole economy is down. Instead of lobbying for their own interests, they should be putting pressure on Congress to prosecute the bankers, Prime, Sub-Prime, CDO's etc. Forcing Mark to Market, or Cram downs. Perhaps if Sony Pictures CEO can convince Congress to stop allowing the banksters to steal from the Taxpayer via the bailouts, Sony (all branches from their games, music label, to NLE software) would be more profitable. I actually like some of Sony's products--Sony Vegas, DVD Architect, and Sound Forge. At the same time, I do not like their root kits on audio CD's, or this CEO's fucking attitude. If he really thinks the net isn't worth it, he should have construction crews, yank out all the computers, networks and phones in all his offices, buildings, render farms, and studios.
Or he could just have a nice cup of shut the fuck up, and be glad he makes a couple grand from idiots like me.
Yes, my email client supports html emails. It even has it enabled by default. But because of that, I changed it to show text version to me before and just when I click it will show me the html version
I think you mean . . .
a.) html ALWAYS OFF by default
b.) show SOURCE CODE when you click
Oh nevermind...
Include with each IBM software DVD... (yeah I hear ya about the bloat) some killer ganja (no problem so far) laced with rocket fuel and elephant tranq (whoop whoop problem), and tell the user to take a hit and hold it for 15 seconds, before thrashing the pop3 server.
Alternatively, if IBM wanted the user to save money, the user could huff paint, (MEK)methyl ethyl keytone, or whipped cream while smoking parsley and sativa.
I've also noticed if you get punched hard enough, you can see colors for awhile, perhaps we can let the CIA work some ass over a bit. Or rig an iron pan to distribute a whack on the side of the head?
You do mean remember the past and PUNISH it?
By the way\, thank god I didn't take the oath with that motherfuckers mug on the wall.
And I personally watched his fucking piece of oath of office breaking shit face be took-en down off the fuckin wall because he was proven a fuckup!
Rumsfield is a shit talking oath breakin motherfucker, and why anonymous coward don't do nasty goatse anagrams on that we will never know?!
Oh wait, I am anonymous coward...
To be honest though, I'm worried about his brightest bulb. Is it the missing nuke? Is it the United States's excuse to remove all rights from the people?
safe from terrorist attack, while dumped into unconstitutional hell, the next bright white light will be the complete removal of all rights, and considering we have a fucking nuke missing I know it's from the dark side of the globalists.
Also, Government should lock their own boxes down before they go telling us how.
Also none of those $10 firewall appliances can be tweaked like IPCop / pf can.
We don't need another PSA for a problem after the fact.
We need cheap affordable firewall appliances in front of the boxes facing the web.
Think about it, we just did this (similarly) with the DTV / ATSC roll out.
And before someone say's there already are available, I would have to point out no they are not available like the ATSC tuners. And I don't see the US Government funding say IPCop and corporate media running ad's on getting your firewall up.
Schools don't teach the kids either. Sure they teach them how to open a word doc, but they don't explain network security. It's a real skill set that kids graduating high school should have. They should know iptables, or pf. They should know what an ISA network card is vs a PCI card.
Yeah yeah yeah I can find a network appliance

But I can't find one for $50 that the government pays me back $40 with a coupon.
If big brother should be hawking something, it should be hardware firewalls not anti-virus software.
A virus doesn't get on your computer by itself. It has to be run somehow. You have to run it. The skill set to track down a virus and remove it without any anti-virus software should be taught as well. At best anti-virus software is a tool to help you find something bad. Look at the windows log files. What good is it? Sure isn't like /var/log/messages where you can actually find something bad going on. I doubt most users ever look at windows logs in their entire life. On the other hand linux users learn early on to read the logs.
We need to keep the bad packets out in the first place in my opinion. Every anti-virus software I have ever used (some better than others) gives false positives, and also sucks up productivity resources. We need to get work done not deal with a warning / pop-up every time we restart some program. Also, I have written bad programs going completely undetected by anti-virus.
