Where do you get this number? Out of your Ass? Out of my collection, I have a majority of AACs now. I'm encoded all my CDs into 160 AACs rather than MP3. They sound better, and are smaller.
Sith Jobs called the Fraunhofer Society, and told them about this. To add more umpth to Sith Jobs' announcements next week.
Who says they haven't been taken to court? Perhaps these devices needed to be seized as evidence? Maybe Sansdisk was not very forthcoming. Who knows. We really don't know anything right now, but it should make for interesting stories the rest of the week.
See, here is the problem. If you read the newsforge article they said "Security researchers Dave Maynor of ISS and Johnny Cache -- a.k.a. Jon Ellch -- demonstrated an exploit that allowed them to install a rootkit on an Apple laptop in less than a minute." In fact, Ellch's new company publically flaunts this. So, is it a real thing? Now, Ellch is backtracking, saying new things. Whatever. He's a Bullshit artist.
Let's see, it ends up on Slashdot, Macdailynews, and a bunch of other websites. It's a media ruckus alright, especially when most people see that it was staged.
Let me make it perfectly clear to you. They don't have more important things to do, other than consulting with David Copperfield on their next illusion. This "exploit" as they call it, is FUD. I'd have a better chance of getting struck by lighting and winning the lottery.
Follow me so far?
These two assclowns can't prove their exploit unless they SET IT UP beforehand. If it was such a HUGE exploit, then why not do it again? If you did it once, you can do it again.
No. You aren't even making a good argument, and bringing in a strawman (IE: Bush) isn't going to help you.
Ellch and Maynor go out, make a huge media ruckus about being able to get into a wireless computer, an Apple computer, and they clearly rigged the whole thing. Gruber is calling them on it. As are all the legal people.
Indeed. All the work required to strip the DRM off iTunes files, one could go to a myriad of P2P programs and find what they are looking for, at a higher bitrate as well.
They'd have been smarter to market it as a Oragamni (or however you spell it) product. Give it a touch screen, a date book, word processing, and phone functions.
Oh, wait, then it would be like my Treo running Palm OS. Never mind......
Insane. If they cannot "simply turn a doorknob" what else can they not do? What else to we need to do to give this very small percent of the population help? How much money are we wasting doing this? Couldn't we put this money to better use like, oh, fighting poverty?
How often do people with mental handicaps who cannot open a door with a knob on it go out by themselves?
Noise cancelling technology in a stall. Great idea. Go and file a patent for it. You can have like little sensors in the toliet seat. They hear a noise, and speakers on the 4 corners of the stall will cancel it out. Now that would be a good innovation....if it was cheap.
A paper dispensor with WiFi that would notify building maintenance that they need to fix the problem. Great idea. You could do something like that with maybe the volume of water in the toliet. If it reaches a point that is too high, it shuts off the water intake and uses WiFi to notify the proper people again.
The article refers to a wand to clean areas. Yeah, no thanks. Who says the wand is clean? Same for the air blower. Do these things get cleaned? How? Can you imagine the blower blowing stuff back up.....yikes! This
WTF. You serious? Why? If they can't open a freaking doorknob, what else can't they do? I mean, I'm all for ramps, hanicap parking and stuff, but there is a point where you just gotta say "look, you are going to need someone to do that for you".
Of course, I also believe that California shouldn't have SPANISH on the ballots but whatever.......

Which, if Fucktard Ellch would fess up to, nobody who owns an Apple Macbook would put in. Ellch rigged the whole thing. It's FUD.

I bet PC will be pissed. Poor guy. Spyware, Viruses, physical damage and now....this?

Their silence speaks volumes.
Why? The original thing was supposedly in 60 seconds. $1200 for 60 seconds of work sounds pretty good to me.
False. I'm sure if he was selling snake oil that would protect you from spam and other nasty things you'd believe him as well.....

It's actually a Ninja named Roger who's pissed at him. He's waiting for the author to click on the wrong link.
So, is he going to take Daringfireball's challenge or not? I think his whole thing has tarnished him, and he won't recover.
Oh please. This is such a non issue, the wiretapping w/o a warrant.
The issue at hand in Ohio is a big problem. Perhaps you'd like to be first on their list? Maybe that is why you moved?
Which is dumb, cause the iTunes store won't let you buy things with iTunes 4 anymore......
Look, there are a ton of ways to get unprotected files if you REALLY REALLY want them rather than going though this slow process here...
Indeed. All the work required to strip the DRM off iTunes files, one could go to a myriad of P2P programs and find what they are looking for, at a higher bitrate as well.
Yeah. And JHymn hasn't worked since, like, 18 months ago. Certainly hasn't worked in iTunes 6 nor do I think iTunes 5 either......

Yup. Great little program!
That is why you'd get a program like sdelete (free from WinInternals) and have it scrub the free space periodically.

At least with TP I can see it is clean.......
Oh, and did you notice the water spins the other way up here? Cool huh?
This needs to be modded way up. Yeah, if everyone in L.A. got one of these, Northern California would be in a crap (pun intended).
There hasn't been a huge drought in California in a long while. I remember as a kid the water rationing we had.
Wouldn't it be better just to have better, biodegradible toliet paper? Or recycled TP? Or something? Sea weed? Organic?
Is this toilet made by Microsoft? Run Windows......oh....it's all starting to make sense now.
So you'd spend thousands of dollars on this crap (pun intended) rather than $15 and some physical exertion?
What, you can't understand how to use a plunger? Perhaps there is a book for dummies on the subject.
Oh, wait, you probably want to put Linux on it so you can time a compile of the latest kernel while taking a crap......
WTF. You serious? Why? If they can't open a freaking doorknob, what else can't they do? I mean, I'm all for ramps, hanicap parking and stuff, but there is a point where you just gotta say "look, you are going to need someone to do that for you".
