acrotray.exe is the offender. Good thing I always kill that SOAB after the install of CS2 (HijackThis & SpyBot SD FTW!), just in case because this DRM is related to CS3 AFAIK.
Way to go Adobe! way to go.. Just waiting for Inkscape to be stable on windows so I can ditch Illustrator once and for all, then, no more CS here.
I salute the Inkscape Win port devs, thats a fine piece of software, the only limiting thing it's crashing on handling huge and complex objects with a lot of nodes.
WRONG! last time I checked F-22s can't fight against Decepticons, F-22s barely take off, fly by, and return in one piece.
Oh GP was talking about non fiction movies?! I don't think movies portray America in a bad way, it's fiction. The "bad" image is from TV shows about spoiled brats wasting shitloads of money in ridicule stuff, car pimping, life-style bragging and things related to unnecessary money burning. That piss off the majority of people inside and outside N. America.
geek- "... yes yes Core i7 and 6Gb of ram and stuff but, does it loads Slashdot?"
clerk- Well yeah, kinda, you have to adjust some deflectors for the tags to work on opera, Good luck with slashcode <b>ROFLOLING</b> at your html tags, intel is developing the state of the art core i9 with that in mind, but beware that it would be ready some time after nehalem release, just in time for Windows 9!. Meanwhile a Denon ethernet cable can help!
Yes, it's a pain, good news is that you have to do it just once, because you make an image right after everything is A-OK so the next reinstall it's just a matter of cloning the original image, right?
If it's a new version of the OS I really like to take my time and start from scratch, but thats personal preference.
They said they were updating a system with 40 thirdparty apps, it's easier for Linux to update because everything is open source, but think in upgrading an XP box with Adobe CS, Maya, Autocad etc.
20 Hours it's a joke anyway, just buy another drive and start from scratch, if you need something from XP just fire the old drive and you have your system as you leave it. ZOMG!! when common sense meets technology!!
No really. How can they tell if some machine is infected? I know they monitor traffic (After all AU is the small brother of the big one *cough* UK *cough*) Maybe they can just slow down the bandwidth on infected PCs so when the customer call because "the internet is slow" the ISP would have the chance to tell them why it's "slow". For those who don't care or can't tell, well, maybe nobody else should care for them either.
I'd really like to see this implemented worldwide if it's done right.
Bonus points when you resurrect the broken machine from an accountant guy who is finishing the report @ 10pm Sunday when the old VGA (Savage something)toasted in his P3 win 98 machine. A PCI video card with 1Mb (yes 1 Mb, Diamond Max?) and some tweaks here and there.. EPIC WIN! 200 bucks in 2 hours and geek points doubled showing my marketing dept ID. Gotta love that old toasters and retarded accounting software.
1. Run netstat 2. Run Chrome 3. Run netstat again 4. ??? 5. Profit!
Not that I care, I never login to my Google accounts from Chrome, even if Chrome it's so integrated with Firefox (maybe they both share cookies?) I really can't see the problem. Wonder what are you people looking in you browsers, why the paranoia? Your very government have been going beyond datamining you email for years. Should be happening? HELL NO! but I don't see anyone doing shit about it.
huh.. Yahoo toolbar? The Yahoo logo in there is technically an Ad because you are being shown the minimal element of the brand. Not that it's a bad thing. I would like to see more Ads on OSS installers if that helps the developers, really:D
Also Java installer offering OOo? It's an Ad even if it's for a free/free product promoted by the same company. Advertising is a very generic term: "Lemonade $1" it's an Ad. AdBlock That!;)
OMG! since when 100% of the world population knows C++ and Phyton and BASH?!! So they can now take a look at the code and know what going on?/sarcasm
In real life 80% or so of users: a) don't know what "Operating system" means b) don't give a shit about privacy or eavesdropping activities would have been stopped from public outcry in places like USA, UK and several others. c) You may know, I may know less, but average user have no fucking idea that "programs" are made by code. d)Access to the code have not stopped idiots from messing with security and privacy in FOSS apps, like that PDF reader that installs malware and mess with the DNS? (I don't remember the name)
How do I feel about installing proprietary software on my machine? <b>should I feel anything in first place? it's not a fucking soap opera it's a FUCKING TOOL</b>. Or or or should I make a SAD FACE when I fire up Illustrator but HAPPY FACE when I check the mail in Thunderbird.. and SAD FACE again when I fire up distiller so I can deliver a job, and again HAPPY FACE when I look if my client is there in Pidgin? WTF!
--- Real world Spoiler! Free and proprietary apps can work together so you can do your stuff and have an income. Is not fucking chemistry, raptor Jesus is going to sell that kid anyway even if I don't buy Win7, My government and fucking bill gates can peek over my shoulder I don't give a crap, my "windows life" is utterly boring.. the fun is in the server and the server is Linux and unless I'm messing with kids, my gov. don't give a crap if I go to a random server and poke here and there.
So, how do you feel about trolling without intent?
ps. is there any hope that the bug in slashcode that eats the formating will be fixed? Why is only "not working" for a group of people?
any suggestion that depression might have a "bright side" is bound to be challenged.
Humm, I should be medicated for depression, I was on medication once and I pity the human being that have to be on meds to carry on a normal life.
Depression is not a problem, the problem is what you decide to do while in a depressed state. I'm actually a very cheerful guy, but I get depressed by "seasons" and I actually get happy when I know I'm in a depressed season because I read a lot more (8 hours a day) and can solve and learn stuff that I can't when I'm "happy" it was pretty obvious to me that depression was an alternate state of mind in which chemicals overclock your brain for problem solving, and I was maybe 14 when I realized that, whitepaper that..
This is no news for people with depression, as the relation between tobacco and schizophrenia or artistical and creativity inclinations. Just that by "common sense" you will see depression as an illness and medicate the ass out off the poor guy that maybe can get along if he learns painting, write a novel or play piano. Or recompile you brainOS, remove self-destructive modules, so every time you feel depressed you crave for something to waste your brain MHz, I like to create cripto languages with pencil and paper, and I'm actually writing more than 50 different tales writing less than a paragraph for every one of them at a time, in a random fashion, FOR THE LULZ! and that's better and more productive than to be a medicated zombie, I truly enjoy my depression, and I did it without the help from medication or therapy, so I understand but challenge your position:)
Also binaural waves FTW!!! look for Gnaural a little nice Open Source app. Everything and anything to stay away from meds, you certainly think different but that's more a cultural problem (as in marketing induced culture) than a rational one.
I see this every week, though I've never repaired more than 500+ on just one disk, do you have any screenshots to share?:), but makes me think, is it really hard to push for a "PC Driving License"? I mean, not because theres no kid harmed means there is no harm done, be it the interwebz bandwidth or the wasted energy on CPU cycles.
thats a good point and the reason AMD is very competitive in developing world. But the fact that makes me go AMD is socket compatibility, I can replace a Phenom 8650 with a Phenom II 720BE on an AM2+ board, and both CPU would cost me almost the same: 8650 @ $170 8 months ago vs. 720BE @ $190 now, I can sell the 8650 for about $120 now and bump the RAM or video card.
Like a IBM's netvista PC, a DELL Trinitron CTR, an nVidia 4XX series or a P3mobile laptop, AMD platform it's a trooper and I love trooper hardware.
nah is not paranoid it's common sense.. the only thing that have f***ed up my systems are precisely the errors at O.S. install time. Why do we need to install 2 or 3 diff boot-loaders-calling-bootloaders-calling-bootloaders when most motherboards come with a F key function to choose the boot disk?
Windows fail hard on messing with other partitions and drives on install, thats well known.
that dumb-ass FLASH at least allows me to stop skip or lower the volume of audio per instance also It does have that useful thing called PRELOADER so I know theres somethign going on. Also flash does not rape my CPU with a simple interaction like this.
how many JS lines of code was this? It can be done with less than 20 in actionscript OH and it will play in any browser.
Not trolling but you really think this is better than flash? Do you think that when flash dies, Silverlight will automagically dissapear too? This is not the flash killer, beware if by trying to make markup language acts like a RIA you let Adobe 0WnZ you ML stuff. PDFML?
