If there were an infinite number of monkeys typing on an infinite number of keyboards would they eventually produce all the works of Shakespeare? Not exactly - they would produce them immediately (as quickly as a monkey can type).
Not only that, but they would produce them an infinite number of times over and over.
I have a nice sony camcorder with a IEEE 1394 port and I also have the IEEE 1394 pci card. How can I stream (any format) from that video source? I can't even use it with netmeeting(ick).
I recently was in the same position.. Except I didn't jump. I stuck it out. The reason was because the managers played mind games and made you think that being unloyal to the company was something personal. Don't think of it that way.. It shouldn't be.
Here's what happened to me.. The company ran out of money. The management kept it a secret. I assume to protect moral. The president of the company screwed up. We walked in one Monday, they said "Bye, That's it." we walked out. My paycheck bounced, and on top of that they still owed me for about a weeks worth of work that I had done. That was back in November. I still haven't been reimbursed for my bounced paycheck. My checking account was in the hole a couple thousand, my bank wouldn't let me cash checks I had gotten from contract work, the company hasn't paid me for the other hours yet, I haven't gotten any word on my W-2's and the president of the company is missing. Her kids don't even know where she has been for the past 2 weeks. Some other employees and I think she was snuffed... We did have a little funding, but from the wrong type of people..
Cover your own butt! I'm sure your friends that work with you are going to do the same. Unless their stupid or have been brainwashed about loyalty.
Microsoft made piracy of their products easy on purpose... So they could control the market! It worked too. I think they still know this and will continue to let people pirate with ease. They make a big deal about it with hologram cds and stuff, but it's still easy to pirate. I have a friend who works for Microsoft's tech support. They told him to give out product key numbers if the customer was having problems with theirs, and if the tech suspected piracy, to just help the caller the best they could.
With the help of a new company called Voxeo and an X10 firecracker, I created something that allows me to control my own house lights and appliances for free with my cell phone or a web browser.
I've been getting 100mbps for a while at my home for about $45 / mo. I could get it for $20 but I wanted a public IP address. The company basically runs cat 5 underground right up to your home and puts optics where it's needed. Right now my whole city is wired for it and a few of the surrounding cities are being worked on for it. They also have a cheap plan for industrial areas. SwitchPoint
Somebody should explain to Microsoft why linux can mutate, but won't mutate into a pile of goo. We have these things called "standards" and we're pretty good and following them.
To let the rulers change lengths seems like cheating to me... "We can't figure this one out, so let's add a new rule that says we can change the size of the bars." You can't do that in real life.
Most interesting is that Joe Baptista, who will be selling domain names under the TLD, says outright that he will not respect trademarks or even court decisions ordering him to respect trademarks.
There's one argument for the guy. This is a religious thing, so what can the government really do about it?
I'm thinking that the government CAN decrypt it, they have, and they know what's in it. That's why they don't want to give it back to Mitnick. Maybe he can use it in his defense, and they're counting on people not knowing they can decrypt it. That way, they can say they don't have to give the files back to him because they don't know whats in them.

Why do I get the feeling that the majority of the books that come out of this machine will be custom porno mags?
It's snakes, dumbass. He hates snakes.
Thanks to the whole genome thing, to create a freak, it's as easy as cut n' paste.
Napster uses this with internet explorer right now. Check it out.

Is this really from M$? Or is this anit-M$ FUD? Where's the source?
Does anybody know all the events that those pictures are for? I know a few, but I don't know what all of them are.
