  1. Re:Encryption on Legislating Insecure Encryption · · Score: 1

    No, no it doesn't. Thankfully I've read slashdot enough to know not to click on any link pertaining to a backdoor. I did that once in a computer lab. Oops.

  2. Re:Simple Solution on Michael Jackson Releases Uncopyable CD · · Score: 1

    Amen! But by the time LimeWire finishes starting up, I could have gone to the CD store and bought the CD. *sigh*

  3. Re:Warning labels? on Michael Jackson Releases Uncopyable CD · · Score: 1

    They can't put that "Compact Disc Digital Audio" logo on it either. If this CD has it, there can be a lawsuit.

  4. Re:It's been said before, but: on Michael Jackson Releases Uncopyable CD · · Score: 1

    Well, the best way of transferring sound is optically. Light is light, unaffected by interference ;)

    I have a USB->Optical connected right to my stereo. Not analog until it goes through the D/A converter. It even works with Linux!

    (Two things that bug me though:
    1. when I move my mouse, I get clicks in the audiostream [from switching from high to low speed transfer? my rio doesn't do a thing to the stream, go figure]

    2. no way of getting raw data into the card (the driver resamples everything to PCM)
    )

    Just mod people that you don't agree with as "Overrated" and it has the same effect. And no meta-moderation.

    Hey! Stop thinking! That's illegal now. Just do what the government^W big companies say and you'll be fine. They know what you want. That's to be fucked up the ass! So bend over and take it like a man!

    Actually, it's not okay to use VI for anything. But that's another story.

    That's a really good point. This could be hillarious, "MS sues US Government for using MS product to publish findings; 'Gas Line' explosion in Redmond levels M$ headquarters" Note to Terrorists: If you want to do the world some good, get MS next time. Don't kill innocent people. BURN IN HELL, GATES-IE BOY!!! AHAHAHAAHA!

    as long as nobody reports it, yeah. as I said earlier, it's only illegal if you get caught

    It's only illegal if you get caught.

    Ooh! I know! Konqueror (or Qt/Embedded) for PS2! That could be useful.

    Uh, just click yes. It works fine ;)

    Well, the G3/G4's beat you all. No fan in my computer, no heat problem either. Suck on it ;)

    how does a power supply become obsolete?

    > for the love of God, change your .sig As good as done sir. It's not quite appropriate as it was. (It came from a newspaper article about a house lit on fire by a sparkler)

  18. Re:Cellphone batteries running out? on FEMA To Use Cell Phone Signals To Find Survivors · · Score: 1

    I hate to say this, but how often are you trapped under rubble? It's something too hard to plan for. Just like the WTC designers didn't design the towers to sustain airplane impacts. Not something that ever happens. You can't always plan for the worst case.

    I need a new sig. Lemme think of one and I'll change it. (I've gotten a few flames recently, it was actually from a Daily Herald article in July)

    All I can say is that I hope like hell that people managed to survive. My prayers go out to those trapped, those killed, as well as their families. God bless America.

    Yeah, I guess if a building fell on me, I'd want to be in a snack shop. Seems so unlikely, though

    Can people live this long under rubble? Or are they just finding bodies like this?
