  1. I know of a material that does that... on Light Stopped, Held And Re-emitted By A Crystal · · Score: 1

    < obvious >
    I think that the property to absorb light is called opacity.
    < /obvious >

    Anyway, how would you release the energy, the only way that I can think of would be to break it.

  2. RE: BY UNKNOWN on Hotmail Hacked · · Score: 1

    Bill: "I'll take internet for 400"
    Host: "what do you know, the daily double. Ahem. Here it is; it's encrypted (with end-to-end encryption between HushMail users -- email sent to non-Hush accounts are only sent to Hush's servers unencryped), it's more secure. I'm not a Hush representative, but after using it for a few
    months, it's definitely the answer."
    *bing*
    Susie: "What is the best free email service?"
    Host: "Yes! 800 points go to Susie, and that's all for tonight."

  3. Re:what the? on MSNBC on Slashdot · · Score: 1

    There are two. (now)
    I would rather go to Micro$oft (or not). Actually, free is the best price. I do not want to go 'Premium'

  4. You seem confused... on Supremes Hear Case of Publisher Piracy · · Score: 1

    Why is it that if *you* buy a cd, its yours and you feel that you have the right to convert to any format you wish and use in any format you wish,

    That is true...

    but when a company buys a story from a freelance writer, you don't think its theirs, that they can convert to digital format and do with as they wish.....

    Actually, they can reprduce it for themselves as many times and in as many formats as they want but can't destribute it freely or make a profit off of it. That's what all those contracts you sign are for, to make it so that they can destribute it...*Snore*... and that's how they make a ton of money by fooling dopes.




    Also see:"Coming Soon: Burn-Proof CDs", it's interesting.

  5. Something I forgot to add... on Coming Soon: Burn-Proof CDs · · Score: 1

    If it won't play on your computer, put it it your CD player and hook up the speaker (or headphone) to your computer and grab it then burn it. (Or just burn it.)

    -I will never be reduced to grabbing music from the air.

  6. The easy way... on Coming Soon: Burn-Proof CDs · · Score: 1

    Tons of us will race out and buy a Charlie Pride CD (even though we abhor country music) simply because we want to try to break it. We want to see whether or not it's really burnproof, and whether we can be the first to figure out the easy way around it.

    You could grab the audio data as the CD is playing. Then burn it on a blank CD. Then you have a version of the CD that is not 'burn proof'.
    There is no such thing as a 'burn proof' CD, if you want to listen to a CD then it has to give out data, then anyone (Most likely one of you Slashdotters) can grab it.

    -I will never be driven into grabbing music from the air.
