Well, it may seem like they are illegal to those who can't separate the software and the content. Oh, and didn't they tell you? Driving is illegal. You might kill somebody.
With tiny personal firewall (v2, the free one) my xp box doesn't "call home" every time I search my disk or synch my time. First of all, I don't ever ever let explorer.exe connect to the outside world. Second, I change the time server to time.nist.gov under the "Internet Time" tab of the date/time cpl (check it out at http://nist.time.gov/; yes, I know nist and time are switched, but that's how they have it). Now, if nist.gov was an issue, there might be problems. But last I heard, it was degrees better than "calling home".
I don't know if one can add time servers (perhaps in the registry? never read anything about it), but it would be very nice to find out one could.
Yes, for the defense, maybe. But they're sure to sue him if he continues, "just in case" and in order to find out if he's broadcasting cr'd material, no?
Say, hypothetically, that I have used gnutella... then, would you please explain how to turn that from "OH, SHIT! I'm moving to Switzerland!" to "what an amusing subpoena" ? I could really use that type of skill.
Um... I think that alcohol is the one thing interstate commerce can't touch. Granted, I think it was a self-imposed limit, but even though they can change such things, they're not wont to do so.
No, I thought it was something more spectacular, too, than being able to hide freakin' icons on the start menu. After all, those things he listed are impossible, so....
If you knew what was going on, Enron set up false partnerships to hide debt from the company's books. The loss of RETIREment accounts was nearly enevitable, however quasi-legal.
But, these people are all idiots, so who care what some bored it guy in the basement unleashes? The only sufferers will be more idiots, the majority of which run the universe and everything, so total anarchy will erupt.
Isn't that what many of you young tuxters are about? (In the sense that linux is a reaction to windows for many, while it's a legitamate way of life to anybody with a brain -- seek the analogy.)
With this stringless violin, they're going to great pains to recreate the feel. While that may work, the cost to a user would be great.
Now, if all you had to do was stick somthing in the bell of my horn and switch out the reed and/or mouthpiece for something else, then I'd be much happier (having my own keys to play) than having to get an entire set-up.
Well I'd sure like to see that for a woodwind -- must be an electron mouthpiece, eh? I've been dreaming of such a thing for a long time. Electronic instruments can do a lot, but the ones not traditionally linked with it (e.g., clarinets) don't get much publicity. Got any informatinoal links?
Slashdot Mirror
Or it was just stolen.
Hey, look at this quote:
"Dude.
Slashdot got trolled.
From the writeup, they think it's for real.
Jesus.
I hope not."
When did they say that? Oh, February of last year. I don't like this one bit.
You idjit. Haven't you ever used telnet? It's backspace.
What about "Congrats the guys"? Isn't it either congrats TO the guys or conratulate (no 's') the guys?
Please note, contrary to how you used it, isolationist != no defense force.
Hmm... well p2p doesn't seem illegal to me, mostly because it isn't, so that's how I work on it.
Anyway, the media is/are afraid of it, and so transparently so that I'd think more people would realize exactly what's going on.
That shows how the hell much I try to do things nowadays. Damn!
Thank you for that, most sincerely. The level of literary quality here is astoundingly low.

That's not stego at all. Here's an article to explain it.
Yes, it most certainly does. The only difference is that they don't get looked at funny for wearing helmets.
So "why" does that "surprise" you?
That's not how you spell it.
Yes, for the defense, maybe. But they're sure to sue him if he continues, "just in case" and in order to find out if he's broadcasting cr'd material, no?
YES! LOL!
But I lost the manual, so I can't play. Talking about weird copy protection...
I've been considering that, but doing it here along the gulf, I'd have so much moisture in my plastic bag that the board would swim.
Gonna seal up the mobo? Road trip!

Waiting until I can hit reply again....

How do you think government programs get started?
(Seriously: take a look at the history behind some of those mid-teen numbered amendments... sheesh.)
I've been using flash 6 and the corresponding version of shockwave moz happily for as long as it's been out (flash6, that is).
"requirement accounts?"

Exactly.
killing time with the 20-second blues: bado shababoo...
Sure, but I'm wondering about cost and usability.
