Don't use IE, get a real browser, for example the newly released Opera 7.0, which is faster, more standards compliant, doesn't have any security exploits and doesn't allow just any DLL to attach to it!:)
I'd be surprised if the third part (Matrix Revolutions) is going to make it before 2004.. The Matrix was in what, 1999, and weren't the second and third suppose to be here in 2002? Then it was March 2003, from this latest trailer it's May 2003.
The Matrix kicks ass though, I hope Reloaded and Revolutions aren't going to flop.
Good news everybody! We have free videos and MP3s! "Secure" computing base? Why are they sabotaging themselves, now this thing has the word "security" attached to it, and you know how MS's track record with security is!
I suppose by the (normal) people you mean ignorant Americans.. I can see why they would love GWB, after all, he's going to take care that the population gets cheap oil to run their SUV, at the same time turning a nice profit for the Big Oil he's friends with. Sure, they'll love him, until one day they get blown up by a terrorist who is avenging what Bush has done to his (the terrorist's) family, killing them as he started World War III and the New Crusades.
I can't believe it, does Bush really think he can start a war that easily? The only way the US population can have a feeling of security is when Bush arrests at least all Muslim and Arabic man 24-48 hours before the first bombs hit Iraq - and that wouldn't be enough. And if he starts doing that, all he needs to do is grow a funny-shaped moustache, and all history students of the future is guaranteed to be confused of which nutcase dictator started which World War.
I guess they really won't be able to answer that, because Linus was once asked, "what will happen if MS starts developing for Linux?" and he answered, "Then we have already won.".. too bad I can't find a google result to back it up.
Writing a Linux app to replace the car control program would certainly score mega bonus points in the cool geek factor. Not to mention that you own a BMW 745i.:).. Heh, imagine it, you pick up your geek-chick date in your Beemer, she says "Nice car", and you say "Yeah I rewrote the iDrive system myself, in Linux.", I'm sure she'll want a tour of the backseat right away.:p
Not to get carried away in my fantasy... I wonder how hard it is to do, what things need to be reverse-engineered, and what protocols there are.
To hell apparently, if the WinCE device suddenly slows the car down with a big-ass SUV behind it. Ah hell, where you can stay in comfort and get rewards from Satan (in cooperation with Bill Gates) by agreeing to have your name written on letters representing Microsoft.
You may think people hate the US because of US's success, but maybe it's this "I'm American, we control the world, piss off you foreigner" arrogance of yours that makes people hates the US.
Bin Laden himself says he only wants the US out of Saudi Arabia, he wants his holy land to be left alone. Yes, laugh at that concept, "Ha holy land", how did you like it when some foreigners attacked the country. Of course we're not going to see that happen any time soon.
The truth is, the world is controlled by one regime, the fucking US-regime. And anyone who disagrees with him does get his head chopped off, only you don't hear about it, why not, because who owns the source you get your news from? Fucking US corporations. Look at Venezuela. Venezuela elected a president that wants less "Globalisation" and more for his people. That makes it harder for US corporation to extract maximum profit out of the country, and what do you get? A coup attempt, with which the US allegedly helped, but Bush evidently immediately congratulated, to see Chavez returning to power only 2 days later. Too bad he's now losing again, the US propaganda being too influential.
Too bad you're a fucking chicken-shit AC, hiding behind your oh so great country.
Why does Bush all of the sudden announced he wants Saddam's head? Because he wants to control the region and the oil underneath it. Lucky for him, September 11 happened, giving him shit-high approval ratings to do whatever he wanted. After September 11, there was an all out flight ban, but why did a plane fly out from New York to Saudi Arabia, with 11 members of the bin Laden family, flown out by the government? Who, in the 80's, owned stocks of Bush & Co's oil companies? The Bin Laden family.
Yes, this will definitely get my name in the NSA/CIA database. Funny.:)
Considering the doctored BIOS would not be checked by the real BIOS and rejected when it doesn't meet some requirements.. I suppose the MB makers can encrypt the BIOS with their private key, with the public key to decrypt it inside the BIOS, what then? (It would be a sorry bloated state indeed when features added to a BIOS include a PGP-decryptor)..
I suppose it would end with mod-chips, or a RAM-"emulator" that plugs itself into the DIMM-socket, so when the decrypted BIOS is stored there, that BIOS is overwritten with a cracked BIOS.. aah what a crazy future.:)

I think he meant: when the program was running with a debugger watching it, the bug doesn't show up. It only shows up when the program is run without a debugger.
Hehe, like the bug that goes away when the tech guy shows up to see about it.
SVCD comes out with beatiful quality (hmm so I've heard anyway). But who here doesn't just make a Divx copy of the DVD, save it to a 700 MB CD-R, and plug in his TV to his graphics card when he wants to watch the film...
I find DVD players are a waste of money.. why would you need them when you have an all-functioning computer.
I read an interesting article in the German "Spiegel" about this policy, applied by Lufthansa, Germany's flagship airline. We all know how 9-11 hit the airlines hard. Instead of cutting jobs, the CEO only stopped hiring new people, and asked everyone to work shorter hours per week (which results in them getting paid less). He also took a (I think 10%, can't remember) paycut.
Morale stayed high because no one's running around afraid of getting fired and when business started getting better, they still had enough people to handle the workload. Now that's how to run a business.
Can I just buy regular underwear, or do they only sell clean ones?
And if I don't buy them from Amazon's Target Store, does that mean I'm not a customer that wear clothes? Does that mean have to get naked? Oh wait till I go over to the girls' dorms with this info..
Customers who don't wear clothes also shop for:
Clean, unused Condoms from Amazon.com Health & Beauty. (Haha you're fucking kidding me, I wasn't serious when I put that search term)
A G-Spotter. Jesus f***ing Christ!!! Didn't now they sell that too!
It sounds like you may have a spyware that monitors keywords in IE (Microsoft made it easy to do, programs can attach themselves to IE windows and see what the browser is doing).
Try AdAware, and switch to Opera, it's even faster than IE with less security exploits. As for ad-filtering proxy-server (assuming you're in Windows, try Proxomitron.:)
So what, Hollywood makes shit anyway. Turn off your TV, stop the flow of bullshit that will only numb your brain and not entertain you. Learn something new, build something, tell someone you love them, evolve from the dumb mass-market consumer that we are.

The date on that link doesn't make it very believable..
Maybe they should declare April 1 to be (inter)national holiday, imagine if we heard "The US attacks Iraq" on April 1st, no one would believe it!
"April 1st declared an international holiday!".. but then, no one would believe that sentence either.. damn.

Care to make a site with pics of your setup? You just made me curious. Besides, don't you have a dream of getting slashdotted some day? :)
Those lucky Soviet Russians...
It's a joke, I mean, come on, why do they have to specify that the underwear is clean... should we be expecting anything else?
:P
They're not eBay, and even in eBay, people can't sell dirty underwear.
And if I don't buy them from Amazon's Target Store, does that mean I'm not a customer that wear clothes? Does that mean have to get naked? Oh wait till I go over to the girls' dorms with this info..
