Second, I use the address as an identifier in my addresses. At mp3.com it's mp3@world-domination.net, at yahoo it's yahoo@world-domination.net.
You just poisened your own method by posting those email addresses on slashdot. If a spambot finds them here, you'll think mp3.com sold or yahoo your e-mail address.
And yes spambots visit slashdot!! (so this program might be something they should use.)
They've outsmarted your local iso dealer, those little playfull scoundrels! The notorious ms-corps is going to hit it hard, very hard!!
Yes, this time they really have gone one step closer to a pir8 free ms based world. They did it, need I say more? The final step into *-commerce, they hit the columbus egg! I just $mell a patent here.
I wonder what will be next then? Maybe they're gonna include the crackpatch themselves in their next socalled release so you don't have to visit a pr0n-a-holic crack site anymore.
My old p120 plays most mp3's smoothly, even some discmans do... Why don't we shift to a more agressive compression-method for todays systems then?
Why not grab the wav files and use the highend "100x" compression methods "you read about, but never see irl"? (Those articles allways claim: "current systems are too slow for this (fractal method)", but they never mention anything useable.)
Current top-of-the-bill machines should be capable of playing the raw cd-grabs realtime from a highly compressed file, in the process possibly getting near-DOS system loads (who cares), without loosing any detail of the original track and making mp3 sound like the inbreed godzilla version of this pure little salamander.
At first I was smiling, because I thought it was just some crazy american law, but now it seems that the european union is going to follow the same route.
The governments just stick their heads in the sand. If net-security is such a big issue for them, they should be focussing on the problems: the buggy software, that is allowing all of this.
I didn't ask for a buggy os, therefore I'm using linux to keep security in my own hands, and it shouldn't be the government holding a hand above companies that produce buggy products. I'm sorry for the users of those programs, but they need to switch to a more secure environment if they are constantly being cracked and not lobbying for laws that disallow people to enter their open systems.
I'm going to set up a cron job to backup all the info of the better security sites. When this thing will really get illegal both in the us and europe, I will get my site up ( scriptkiddies.com, already registered it) and have it hosted from Russia and I'm not going to whine about it if it will get cracked.
Is the NSA stole it in an attempt to develope a "new" copyrighted encryption scheme to boycott all going to be non-USA cuecat competitors with. They failed in their lame attempt however.
This is what bridges the gap between monitorheads (as myself) and the analog worldish dig.-art. I've seen many of the socalled digital artscene, like the photocopy art glued on a traditional painting window, which is really trendy right now here in Amsterdam, but irritating as hell. I've seen linuxboxes that control animal skeletons that move with lights and little engines in contemporary patterns. But THIS is really original and interesting if you keep Platos shadowtheory in mind! I hope this will continue and more artists will follow.
I wonder how they made this.. Maybe they took some of the sprites (very vintage sounding "buzz"word isn't it?) from existing videogames and used them for templates?
My question is:
How are artists going to make money on this? I know real art isn't about money, but artists need to pay their rent too. This form of art is not something you can sell in an auction or gallery, people will just download and print it, if they want it.
The bigger the size of the country the smaller the size of the brains of their political candidates it seems. Because of the fact that there are only two(!!!) presidential candidates it seems that they really Have to be mainstream. So if they can be as ignorant as the mainstream (and they are), they will get their votes and so they will be president as easy as that. It begins to look as "1984" to me.
Maybe we should just ignore them, because we all know the real power is in hands of the multizillion$ multinationals. The president is just their puppet to keep the mainstream happy. I will not make a big issue about the candidates knowing sh*t about technology (who cares We are in the middle of the most profoundly deep technological revolution in human history sofar).
Democra$y is just not what it used to be is the only thought that haunts me. If freespeech online is what we want, shouldn't really be a such a big issue, because the USA 0wn$ only small part of it, if everything will go wrong there are still smaller more liberal countries out there that will host your content.
What about the big $ companies? Their influence cannot be denied. Since they have the money to get their power in politics and media they can control the mass. I wonder what will be the outcome of the micros~1 trial.
It seems that for now the only thing we have is linux, free bsd etc. and open source, it will give you what you want. But will it hurt the companies enough to remove their finger from the rope that is controlling the puppet? I don't think so, but it will give you a chance on free speech and hopefully some more media backup.
Sometimes it's cheaper or the same price to fly to japan and pick one up in Akihabara - Tokyo yourself and have a little fun in town while there (although everything else is a lot more expensive!).
You will have to smuggle it thru the customs to avoid your local taxes, best thing is to put it in an old laptop bag with some computermags and your favourite distro, so you have some fun while flying back.
I already saw it on CeBit last year, they told me they were not going to make linux drivers, because it had been too much work for them even to make the drivers for windo~1
I think Microsoft(tm) acquired the(tm) trademark to Really Bad Thing(tm)recently in a complicated stock-for-free-software(tm) deal with the(tm)
Department of Justice (discussed recently on another newsgroup).
It(tm) so happened that the(tm) Director of the(tm) U.S.(tm) Office of
Trademarks and Copyrights was at the(tm) same meeting and remarked that she
was several versions behind with Word(tm) for Windows(tm) and Excel(tm) for
Windows(tm). Mr. Bill, President of Microsoft (tm), offered "free upgrades
for you and all your friends" in exchange for certain trademarks, and the(tm)
rest is history. So, be very careful when using the following trademarked
words(tm) or phrases:
Bad Thing(tm),
Really Bad Thing(tm),
Good Thing(tm),
Really Good Thing(tm),
Wicked Good Thing(tm),
United States(tm),
software(tm),
the(tm),
it(tm), :) (tm)
To prevent legal recrimination by Microsoft(tm)'s large legal force (42.25% of
all practicing lawyers work for Microsoft(tm)), it(tm) is recommended that you
include a check for 1 dollar per unlicensed use of any of Microsoft's
trademarks.
You can include your check with your next upgrade order.

They should use the last fuel in the thrusters to fly the mir to mars. This will go very slowly ofcourse. That's good, because the fungie will have time to slowly adapt to their coming habitat as the environtment on board will slowly change. And by the time humans will finally go to mars there will be a nice welcome of little martians that resemble Toad - that marioland guy.
In my country (Holland) you have to wear a helmet on a motorcycle too, even the light ones > 49.9 cc. But you can avoid it driving a three of four wheeled motorcycle. You don't need a motor drivers licence for them either, just a card driverslicence is enough, because they are considered as convertibles or open cars.:)
I guess this product is gonna cause confusing here for the lawmakers, as soon as I put on my future pair.
Remember to 3d postcards? The ones with the ribbed plastic surface so the picture on the card looks like it has 3 dimensions.
Would be cool if you'd put that on these paper monitors. You could for instance create cool 3d catalogues, 1000 hours should be plenty for that purpose - if lifetime of this technology was to be the bottleneck.
You can also create very cool cheatingmethods with this stuff, just put a little on the side of a pencil upload the data you need and scroll it while you make your tests. Or put some on the inside of glasses, with a little lens in front so you can look from closeby so you have you own private heads-up display maybe mount a tiny cam and link some together so you can look at the stuff someone else is writing without having to stretch yourself.
Btw anyone knows if there's a place where you can buy these ribbed plastic sheets so you can make your own 3d-viewable printouts, or maybe the name for this oldstyle 3d-tech?
"But not even Dr. Nimtz believes that this trick would allow one to reach back in time. He says, in essence, that the time it takes to read any incoming information would fritter away any temporal advantage, making it impossible to signal back and change events in the past."
- I understand that it's not possible to read the incoming information yourself that fast, but - What if you would use somesort chip with optical circuits in this experiment, maybe that would do the trick?
Why not setup a special quickies page, where all submitted quickies will be posted, if they have an unique url? Most quickies don't make it to the Slashdot page, but I think some of them would be worthwhile visiting as well.
I think this service is destined to be off-air within one or two months, just like I-crave did. There's allways someone going to complain about these kind of services. Both are nice plans and living in Europe I like it a lot, because I can watch some series that are not playing in Europe (but I hate the many commercial breaks grrr..).
But alas, I guess the best thing to do is relocate the servers to Russia, thereby avoiding problems with the cablecompanies, television stations and other complainers. Maybe setting up the capturing-computers in the usa, and streaming the content to the distributing computers, because not everthing is receivable with the satellitedishes.
I'm working on a new gaming site for linux. I registered games4linux / lingames / cultgames. (which one would you prefer?) I'm developing the site-engine in my spare time right now. But due to my workload I don't have that much time. So maybe some of you want to help me out with reviews/articles/ideas or other help. If you're interested please email me.
I'm living in the Netherlands and I'd like to purchase a couple of these things, but I can't order them if I don't have an US adress, anyone knows a solution for this or maybe there's a company that is specialized in this problem?
Corels stock is in a what seems a freefall getting really low now. I'm glad I threw it out a while ago. Maybe I buy some in the future when they are really low just before there office 2000 is released. If you're planning to ride the linux stockhype try SuSe it will go on the stockmarket monday

There's an 81.6% chance he won't be able to contact us during this magnetic storm ;)

I'm already looking forward to buying the ultrasmall watch version in say 20 years from now.
After drinking a lot of guinness pints I might add.

When you're being carnivored would it show up in a traceroute as an extra host in the route, that runs nt?

The systems internal clock wasn't set accurate,
so after a few days the RH7 system crashed,
All the screen would say after rebooting was:
"R3dH4t 0wnZ u n0W!"
