Didn't Nintendo have some kind of "Game College" back in the day. I always remember my friends saying that they wanted to go there so they could just make games and play them all day.
I swear this is true.
The truth is accounts like Yahoo and Hotmail only exist to turn a profit for their owners. I know not everyone can get an e-mail address that they can use for personal means in any other way, but you have to accept what you are getting into when you open one of these accounts.
Personally, I have several e-mail accounts and only use my hotmail and yahoo for things like web page registration.
I remember reading phrack back in the day. It gave me fun things to do friends and foes before I realized how stupid a lot of it was. Building red, blue, biege etc. boxes and turning off my nieghbors phone. It was mostly juvenile stuff that just turned me into a little delinquent but it got me interested in the tech industry and I apprieciate that.
First, I already hate it when someone leaves their phone on in a movie or quiet resturant... now I have to be subjected to their music tastes too? This is like carrying a little ghetto blaster with you wherever you go.
And second, I just bought a new phone that came with something loaded on it as the ring, and I can't figure it out because I'm not 16 and I don't listen to top 40 radio.
If you like your music that much, get a frickin iPod or Rio and keep it to yourself.
I figure I've never been struck by lightning, broken a bone or won any other contests so my odds of winning the Powerball tonight are pretty good, no? And what the Hell, mechanical watches for the Slashdot crew!
Speaking as a member of the Law enforcement community, I see how increasingly difficult it is to get a good solid conviction.
This is just playing with fire. The encrypted cameras sound like a good idea, but I think that you need to have more solid evidence. Video cameras in squad cars is a great example. When you can get a drunk to admit how many beers he has had on video tape while conducting a field sobriety test it is pretty easy to refute his claims in court that he was just driving home from grandma's house and got a little tired.
The thing is, maintaining a trail of custody for the photos I think would be much harder, therefore easier to refute their validity in court. And any time you start messing with anything remotely related to being circumstantial evidence, you might as well just throw the case out the window, cause thats just what the judge is going to do.
It is going to be hard to convince people that this is a technology with feasible use in the courtrooom after they have seen pictures of OJ wearing ducky slippers.
Now if only computer manufacturers could make equipment even remotely this sturdy
Now if only slashdotters could decide weather or not to hate NASA.
They're a dinosaur Monopoly, now they're cool.

Hell, we had guns and ammo just lying around the house. Sure most of it was locked up, but I still had easy access to it. ( My father taught me to respect guns as tools, not weapons. )
So if this program was in my High school, the jocks who kicked my ass on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday because they liked to, and the Cop Haters who kicked my ass on Tuesday and Thursday, could have all just turned me in as a threat if I said I was going to rat on them? Worst of all, they would have gotten brand new Junior Spies... uh, I mean... WAVE America BallCaps, for kicking the ass of a thought criminal... I mean... disturbed kid.
SOUNDS GREAT!!! See, my parents never worried about me lashing out, because they taught me that violence solves nothing. More importantly, they cared enough to talk to me if I had a problem.

I couldn't get through to the site, but I'm pretty sure they forgot the best one: The Government.

Does Hotmail really think that I have friends named things like ilikeitinthebutt?

Seriously, do you know how much preperation it takes when none of your guests will eat a true haggis?

Free as in Beer, cause this rounds on me.

I can't believe that I have cheapened myself like this. D'oh!

Exactly! With LEDs like the ones that you get at resturants that buzz when your table is ready.

What do you mean LOTR Tommorrow?! Someone with your power should be able to convince their local theaters to show it a day early!
At least some of us were able to do it here in the Twin Cities.
;-P

I dressed different.
I listened to different music.
I worked with computers
I played quake
and worst of all...
My Dad was Cop! Cop = guns.
