This. The decryption keys are tied between console and drive at the factory (started w/ the 360 iirc, there's a lengthy process involving firmware dump you have to go through if you want to swap out a failing 360 dvd drive and have it still read game discs).
Not sure which but one of the console manufacturers used to spin their discs backwards.
No, AC is right. The degrees of US/ISIS ideologies 'wrongness' doesn't really matter, it's the fact that they are both rationalizing the acceptance of wrong. One will just have a much shorter time plummeting than the other.
Science can't hold a candle to someone who can't, or won't, appreciate critical thinking. Faith and religion beheads it.
I see this partial slogan bandied about all the time, that we only have ourselves to blame. How the fuck exactly do we stand up and demand? Most of us do already.. voting doesn't fix things. Peaceful protest doesn't fix things. Hell, the only real power we do have is w/ $, and that doesn't fix things. Snowden has done what few of us are capable of, mainly because we're peons, and it's still not fixing things.
"Until the American public stands up and demands" means the only real way things will happen will be through violence.

Completely agree. I'll quote myself for no other reason than I just 90sec ago stated the same thing earlier and you completely encapsulated how I feel. I have a feeling that there are quite a lot of us like this.
"We expect it from China because they are [more or less] (not us, so therefore) a potential enemy, like Russia, like latest Islamatyrant, blah blah.
(going US centric) We were raised to believe that the US was better than what we're finding out it's doing. We were taught to believe we are a shining beacon of freedom, democracy, that our way is the best way - or at least it's the best way done so far - because look at all of the failings we see around us.. we take the moral highground making us better than the tyrants who do the stuff that we despise, etc.
There are a lot of Snowdens out there.. not necessarily in what power or knowledge we have, but that those of us that feel everything instilled in us about our nation's greatness is turning out to be complete bullshit."

Grow up.
Just one more in a long line of societal injustices. It's muskets and pitchforks time.
No we didn't.
Or rather, fuck the Chinese government. I'm sure the people are swell.
Fuck China.
Chromecast much? Chromecast and other HDMI dongles are essentially useless if you can't control from your phone.
And yeah, Assange has always been a dink.
I lost my lower 5 digit account, this will have to do.
AC beat me to it. Pussy.
Eight years ago? Fuck that.. are you forgetting the Patriot Act? Or do you only get a privacy boner when it's Obama..
March 1.. lame. It's a very useful photo library manager. Not much better out there, especially when you factor in the $free$ness of it.
Not to mention that a VM won't have crapware installed.
....
What?
(fwiw, I've used Lightworks quite a bit. It's very similar to old school Final Cut Pro & Express circa ver4/5 (before they started iMovie-fying it))
Lightworks is a fantastic NLE.

It's almost as if the OP isn't really aware of how powerful the tools are on Linux. Or maybe isn't that much a power user..
And it's for Linux.

The music is from (fairly sure) the movie Sunshine.
First 2015 post?
This is the same country that inspired 1984 and V For Vendetta, so it seems there's a long running propensity for criminal overreach.

You post AC for a reason, right?
