If they made it bright enough it would bleed into the surrounding pixels on a camera recording from a theatre which is what it sounds like they are trying to protect against. Also it is the possibility of tracing the pattern back to distribution. But what is next charging theatre for pirates from their threatre i.e. your security is so poor someone copied a film in your theatre so you owe us for this breach???????
I am just finishing watching Baraka which I just bought. This film was done in 70mm and I owned the VHS so decided to get the DVD. While watching it I saw a redish dot appear in the right hand corner. I moaned that the film had deteriorated so quickly before it could be archived. And it appeared again later in the film but in the same place. I thought odd that their was a flaw in the same area of the film but so far apart that it could not be a film blemish across layered frames. I decided to read/. on a whim and see this. I should return it. This film is masterpieced of visual presentation and it does interfere with the film. I am wondering if the badly compressed audio which causes low bass notes that are droned to form beats and the skipping at the halfway point are on purpose also.
So my thoughts of this being a bad job done to a great film is probably just an example of bad policy applied to a great film.
This is depressing.
Really depressing is anything safe or pure, or even meant to be enjoyed by the consumer or is the act of consumation the only thing that matters anymore.
Again it would not be hard for people to track all traffic and relate it to the ip address, attaching that ip address to a user can be difficult but the nature of the protocols leaves this trail. And if wanted to all this information can be logged. It is a large quanity of information and exists on many machines, and the different policies of logging information keeps it being tied back to individuals all the time. But realise the basic nature of the protocols has no identity protection designed into it, so don't expect it and act accordingly. I am not saying I want people to track this information nor that I see it as right, but just the fact that you leave a footprint on the net and a few policies changes can tied all those footprints back to you. But it has always been like this, it is nothing new to the net, except now people are trying actively to tie user of x service with ip such to the point of connection via the ip. And your best security is the integrity of the provider of your connection and the policies they have in place in protecting identity.
That wasn't a typo it was a suggestion, you do need to think about getting a thicker hat, and do you know store bought tinfoil has designed holes in it to let in goverment thought rays. You really need to buy electronic grade sheilding now.
To be honest I would pay a reasonable price for google. If the subscription dropped ad supports. As for tracking my searches if anyone wanted to all traffic per IP address could be logged, though it is data intensive, so being paranoid is good but TCP/ip is a trusted environment, if you are not encrypting it expect anyone to know what you are doing.
I would have to agree with you. Google's move to a simple on screen format in the time when excite, yahoo, hotbot and others were flooding the screen with useless information has won me over from the beginning. I don't like the ads and searching has been getting harder but I believe that is the quantity of cruft growing on the Internet.
But it does its job well enough not much I can't find with google and some refining to a search.
I moved from the states to the UK and practice space over here is a nightmare in costs. $200 a month a would love that. But I have moved all my tape based recording to computer. I used to use analog tape on 8 tracks and bring that into the computer now I use the computer and with Cool Edit get 64 to 128 tracks for about $1000 not counting computer costs but compared to ADAT costs yes it is reasonable now that what is a recording studio is going to fade and it will just be acoustically sound rooms that are rented while the equipment to record comes in with the band. Most recording I do now is in practice areas or we can take from stage and overdub that way you get the killer live feel on a track and the polish of the studio sound. It cost us close to $10k to record our demo in a studio and now that money is better spent in getting your own equipment.
But it is not new many bands in the local scene in PA where I came from have been doing it since the mid 90's. It is that the pros are seeing it as less of a demo function and more as a standard practice.
I agree with everything you are saying. Distribution needs to be changed world wide, there needs to be a combination of small and large producers evenly scattered across the grids.
Personally I would want to solar panel every council house here in the UK and have the council sell the power back to the grid. And yes I know it isn't that much power but it cuts down on business time demand from the domestic users. That would be one small way of breaking some of the demand changes. Small alternative energies used as pressure relief on the demand in key areas. On top of a more fairly distributed power grid and production layout.
Deregulation does not promote the upgrade of the system, just the bare minimal maintenance to keep profit levels up. It takes a monopoly to encourage changes to an existing system for profit.
But yes the structure of the electrical systems of the world needs to generally updated to reflect the change in demand cycles for the time.
Italy has deregulated its market and the providers are relying more on buying power from France and Switzerland than building or investing in local production.
I think your argument is actually an argument against privitsation because that is the centralisation. Centre around the individual out of the resources of the society.
If you extend your metaphor.
And an information network also means to have a collection resource which is against the model of privatisation. Humans tend to want to know who owns something, so they can attribute blame when it breaks, find the correct versions when they need it, and help when they are confused with it. Just look at the confusion to the populace as a whole the the Internet caused in its introduction on collected information or the confusion on open source ideas.
If you want the true cause just say greed, we haven't learned to share in groups equal in size to the groups we live in.
But the argument isn't for government agencies. It is about the market liberalisation model used in utility companies and the regulatory needs of these structures, versus a licensed monopoly and its regulatory needs.
You would want a for profit organisation to have the profit encourage innovation in energy production efficiency and delivery efficiency, but there must be regulation to require a standard of service.
As it stands now I can choose my electricity provider but and my neighbour can choose another, but when a tree takes down the power line at the end of the road we both lose power and the same company fixes the line for both of us. These extracted levels of providers are service providers not commodity providers and they are sapping resources from the system into their profit model.
Slim that system and the resources get tied back into the infrastructure.
Utilities that are tied to geographic regions, phone lines, sewage, power do not recieve a benefit from being pushed into a free market after they have been set up. The California crisis highlighted the weakness in free market energy. Italy is highlighing what happens when you rely on the market and have no investment into an internal system relying on external sources.
The trend is not good, but it is not apocolypitic. It is something that can be fixed but are people willing to pay for it, we tend to view electricity as a necessity. It isn't it is a convience and should be charges as such.
Something happened when I started using electronics to communicate with, my spelling and sentence structure got worse. I have never understood the psychology of it but computer based communication has in my mind an urgency that causes me not to proof read or even think as I would if I were writing a letter or story.
Forums and chat are the worse for me. Even without karma systems I just feel I have to get my great internal thoughts out first before anyone else.
Yes the G5 is there but the economy of price and the processor power versus efficiency of the OS is different.
BeOS did much on little
G5 is alot to do alot.
BeOS pushed technology to do the most out of the hardware. Mac focuses on scaling up the hardware and the OS to do more. Linux goes between all of these because of the different coding styles of the applications.
But yes MAC is where I will purchase from next.
Funny the Be lot were people fleeing MAC to pursue something different how I wish Apple would have bought that OS instead of Palm
What we need is the linux community to get development from Syntrillium if you go way back Cool Edit core was free ware on single track functions only as a multi track functions did you have to pay. I would pay for it all over again if they supported the Linux Community to just get audio editing equal to Windows Level let alone BeOS levels.
A problem I see in the Linux community, is Linux used to run on 386 kit and was meant to be economic not just in cost of software but in choice of hardware. More and more it is getting bloated. I believe specialised kernals need to come out that offer the api structure for other software but control resources for various platforms. My main audio editting system is still a SCSI AMD K6 350 with 256mb my 1G machine is used as the game machine for the kids. I tweaked the 350 so much it does everything I need and to get the hardware to make the 1G a recording station was not economical. But prices on the Layla stuff are nice now, but I digress.
I like OS's that run well on minimal kit, Amiga's, BeOS, OS/2 and Linux but I fear Linux has some bloat going on from being a general OS. The source is there so I could modify it if I knew where to begin.
But I will take a living Linux over a dead BeOS.
And the question that started this circle of argument was is there a Market and my answer is still yes there is a market be it a small one and they would need to update the OS to at least can a year or two of the time lost before it would be worth the purchase.
Thats funny because it did work fine on my machine but I didn't stick my fingers in my ears and say it, it was a case of drive support and getting specific hardware to work with the OS to the full advantage the OS offered.
But than I bought hardware to work with it and optimised my system around recording audio with it.
The only major problem I had with it was Net Positive as a web browser. But again if I wanted to browse the web I wasn't using my BeOS machine I was using my MAC, or Linux Machine. If I wanted to play games I was in Windows.
But I agree hardware support was flakey and there was only a handful of pieces of kit that it worked awesome on another score or so it worked really well on and most everything else it worked ok on.
Know the point isn't replacing current business it is augmenting them. Wealth creation by having more processes active. In a global economy should there be an industrial approach for all markets. Is it McDonalds world wide or is it each local restaurant having the technology to minimise its costs to compete with the industrial produced goods. To have communication systems to purchase at best cost up to the minute. To have the accounting and in house automation to reduce its staff to lesson its cost and increase its profits. To create many companies in the many markets that exist in a global economy, instead of trying to shape the global economy around the markets of already existing businesses.
Because it creates more wealth for the society the average people are in. As we move away from a labour based populace we need to constantly find new markets to do this we need more people creating wealth. Or we need to explore wealth creating in third world communities. This creates new markets but displaces the current markets. The system is in a point where it is cutting employment and services to create efficiency and more profit, if the markets were to expand to non traditional areas you could increase profit and efficiency but still need to keep or expand employment. The problem is to expand markets you need to spend. And at this economic point the nerve to spend is not there. The winners in the next two decades economically are going to be the ones investing into Third World economies as they are cheap now. The will balance out with the 1 st world countries either by the 1st world standard falling or the third world rising or a combination of both. In the US this means little of the population will be involved in the new economy other than to service the people making the money overseas, jobs will be selling goods, transporting goods, selling services. What this does to the US society can be debated but it will create a have and have not two tier environment. Once you can have China and India affording to buy commercial goods at the same rate as the average US consumer you will not need to keep US people employed for US business to make money.
This means the businesses to exist in the US in the future will be the ones that can afford to enter the new markets the ones that rely on the western consumer market will slowly fade with their consumers power.
If average people are involved in wealth creation they can enter these world markets or create sub markets locally that become part of the economy. By staying in the market and creation of wealth stream they can keep a standard of living or increase it even with the outflow of focus to other markets.
From a corporate proposition the place to be now is Asia. The populace is there and the mechanism for the pupulace to spend for the next 100 years is coming into play. The cycle in the western world is already costing more than it should.
Having to use the cache can't see the products page and am wondering if the OS will be seperate some day. As for Logic and such, Logic is now an Apple only product, and the companion products for BeOS were comparable at the time some better and I think TrackS was a great finaliser. And you don't mention Cool Edit or Samplitude which in my opinion though not as popular as the editors you mentino for Windows/MAC the power and efficiency were top notch. And if we are talking about in the studio you still need ProTools.
But as it is the software was a hodge podge but you could get focused apps that you could work with and get the job done you just needed to stack your apps which the OS handled well. Instead of One do it all app you had a collection of apps. With the rise of virtual synths though some new apps need to come into this market.

And I don't see av getting it in Linux the same as BeOS. The point I was making was BeOS did AV everything else was an extra. On other OS's AV is the extra. What this does is give the OS an efficiency when dealing with that type of data. Linux can do it but the tools are not there and the data is not handled the same plus some of the ability to handle multiple AV streams would need to be addressed in the kernal or kernal space and monolithic kernals are not designed for that. Maybe a recompiled specialist kernal could do the same job and efficiency. On a AMD K6 300 with 128mb of RAM and 256 swap I could open more AVI files than I can on my Linux 1ghz with 256mb RAM and 512 swap, before skipping and lag. And the quality is excellent. And to me that was the efficiency of the OS if this can be repeated on new hardware than the efficiency will create a better studio. But that is the question is what is the efficiency and how does it affect the end result.
I am American living in England and any idea I have of spelling is lost in confusion. Spellcheckers who needs the it will all be Phonics someday anyway.
Having been a big BeOS fan and trying to work with the OpenBeOS project I would say there is a need for someone to takes BE's place in the market. My BeOS system is still my favourite machine. The Audio tools in Windows and Mac have caught up but the power per machine spec has not. The things you could do AV with BeOS on lower spec machines is the same as the comaparision of Linux server's power per processor spec versus Windows.
An operating system taylored around just AV file system and hardware access concerns is not a bad thing. Windows is too generic, MAC too resource intensive, Linux lacking but catching up in the AV realm.
But the problem with this a company such as Yellow Tab needs to take the BeOS product and have it sit on modern hardware and software improvements it can not just be BeOS 5 professional released on modern hardware.
As the page is dead will not complain about the new product until I read the specs but is there a market yes there is, is it a large market no, should Microsoft be worried no, should Apple yes and the sad thing about Be being killed by MS OEM scare tactics was MS saved Apple's market share more than their own.

NYT on RFID
·
· Score: 3, Interesting
Which goes back to the Defense Department Funding this heavily in the article. Yes great for shipping but if they have the standard in play they have the readers.
What we need is an open source RFID reader so we can identify the id tags we buy.
Since the details of the tech is coming out we as a community need to respond make readers to read the tags. And then we can a isolate them by finding them and removing them from items or b create dummy tranmitters duplicating the id of items and place them in silly places like the chewing gum under every desk or table you find.
ok Alpha Centauri is a star system consists of Alpha Centauri A, Alpha Centauri B and Proxima Centauri, that appears as a single star to the naked eye. Of that system we are closest to Proxima Centauri not Alpha Centauri. The distance to Proxima Centauri is 4.36 light years. In Kilometers this is: 41,220,846,106,794
So you calculation is a bit off in the time scale. To reach it in 10 years you would have to be going roughly half the speed of light or 150,000,000 meters per second
Sorry with the rpc dcom exploit and the sql slammer exploits end users don't need to do anything pass around problems. A hole in these machines once infected could take out the electronic banking system. A slammer type virus that reach maximum saturation in 8minutes accross the internet would wipe out this system leaving people running to the banks for their money and if the banks are connected to this system the network noise may make transactions impossible. 99% of money is electronic . Very scary. But then I hope this network is locked down tighter than a nun.

I am just finishing watching Baraka which I just bought. This film was done in 70mm and I owned the VHS so decided to get the DVD. While watching it I saw a redish dot appear in the right hand corner. I moaned that the film had deteriorated so quickly before it could be archived. And it appeared again later in the film but in the same place. I thought odd that their was a flaw in the same area of the film but so far apart that it could not be a film blemish across layered frames. I decided to read /. on a whim and see this. I should return it. This film is masterpieced of visual presentation and it does interfere with the film. I am wondering if the badly compressed audio which causes low bass notes that are droned to form beats and the skipping at the halfway point are on purpose also.
So my thoughts of this being a bad job done to a great film is probably just an example of bad policy applied to a great film.

Again it would not be hard for people to track all traffic and relate it to the ip address, attaching that ip address to a user can be difficult but the nature of the protocols leaves this trail.

I am American living in England and any idea I have of spelling is lost in confusion. Spellcheckers who needs the it will all be Phonics someday anyway.
What is the meta tag for sarcasm.
Having been a big BeOS fan and trying to work with the OpenBeOS project I would say there is a need for someone to takes BE's place in the market. My BeOS system is still my favourite machine. The Audio tools in Windows and Mac have caught up but the power per machine spec has not. The things you could do AV with BeOS on lower spec machines is the same as the comaparision of Linux server's power per processor spec versus Windows.
An operating system taylored around just AV file system and hardware access concerns is not a bad thing. Windows is too generic, MAC too resource intensive, Linux lacking but catching up in the AV realm.
But the problem with this a company such as Yellow Tab needs to take the BeOS product and have it sit on modern hardware and software improvements it can not just be BeOS 5 professional released on modern hardware.
As the page is dead will not complain about the new product until I read the specs but is there a market yes there is, is it a large market no, should Microsoft be worried no, should Apple yes and the sad thing about Be being killed by MS OEM scare tactics was MS saved Apple's market share more than their own.
Which goes back to the Defense Department Funding this heavily in the article. Yes great for shipping but if they have the standard in play they have the readers.
What we need is an open source RFID reader so we can identify the id tags we buy.
Since the details of the tech is coming out we as a community need to respond make readers to read the tags. And then we can a isolate them by finding them and removing them from items or b create dummy tranmitters duplicating the id of items and place them in silly places like the chewing gum under every desk or table you find.
ok Alpha Centauri is a star system consists of Alpha Centauri A, Alpha Centauri B and Proxima Centauri, that appears as a single star to the naked eye. Of that system we are closest to Proxima Centauri not Alpha Centauri. The distance to Proxima Centauri is 4.36 light years.
In Kilometers this is:
41,220,846,106,794
So you calculation is a bit off in the time scale.
To reach it in 10 years you would have to be going roughly half the speed of light or 150,000,000 meters per second
The first picture shows an ethernet port but I can not read specs due to /. effect on the page.
What do they say about assume it makes an ass out of you and me. But then I don't need word play to make myself anymore of an ass.
Sorry with the rpc dcom exploit and the sql slammer exploits end users don't need to do anything pass around problems. A hole in these machines once infected could take out the electronic banking system. A slammer type virus that reach maximum saturation in 8minutes accross the internet would wipe out this system leaving people running to the banks for their money and if the banks are connected to this system the network noise may make transactions impossible. 99% of money is electronic . Very scary. But then I hope this network is locked down tighter than a nun.
