Being a Script kiddy is in my DNA, and unpatched systems are crucial to my success. Does that mean i can sue people who patch their systems?
I just saw Atack of the Clones in digital format. (had to drive 3 hours to see it) the picture was real sharp, but you could still see the pixels, that didnt bother me. the anoying thing was that the sound and video got out of sync for most of the movie. wtf? I know that with THX sound the film has electric markers every second to cue the digital sound. This way the sound wont get out of sync.
With all the time they spent engeneering the digital projector they never thought of putting sync technology into it. pathetic. not only did i have to sit through all those bad love sceens in the movie but their voices and lips did not match.
are you sure it wasnt the fact that the american civil war was fought using thousand year old war tatics developed for infentry and cavelry using swards and spears instead of rifels? The civil war was the first war fought with rifels that were actually cabable of killing someone a hundred yards away as opposed to the muskets of eriler wars where you were lucky if you hit someone 10 yards away. That combined with the tatic of having all the soldiers stand up in rows and columns of a company while fireing at eachother, instad of hiding behind obsticles like soldiers of later wars lead to the extreamly high death rate. Also the poor medical conditions did not help the situation much.
that phrase reminds me of "intelectual anarchy" form Isaac Asimov's sci-fi story the dead past. In the story the government prevents any research in the area of neutronics so that no one will learn their secerets. to make sure no one is an intelectual anarchist the government takes away grant money from any researcher who strays away from his/her stated research field. which basically restricts everyone's research.
Why does microsoft want to test the validity of the GPL? They are already using the TCP/IP stack from FreeBSD. They probabally get all the code they want from non copyleft code.
Alex,
I visited your sight and found it very interesting. I was especially interested in your total disregard for Maxwell's equations and Lentz' Law. It must have taken you at least 10 minutes to browse through a physics book and be inspired by the pictures of magnetic field lines. Then you used your own versions of magnetic flux to come up with a totally new and refershing theory on aging.
I am an advocate of all poorly researched psudo-science with testimonials that dosnt make any sence. If i could, i would spend all the money i had on devices such as yours. The only problem is that imortallity is so easy to come by in this world of homeopathy, accupuncture, scientolgy, new-age medicine, heavens-gate, super blue-green algee. What are the reasons you belive your placibo is better than all the other ones on the market?
Superconductors are perfect dimagnets that means that they create a magnetic feild that exactly counters external magnetic feilds. With a large superconductor you can levitate a small perminante magnet. How ever you cant levitate a samll semiconductor (like a spaceship) with a large perminate magnet (like the earth).
dosnt ximian have a bunch of mirrors? There site is just getting hammered. I remember form their old installer they had a bunch of mirrors. Why dont they have a list of them on there web site? can anyone post the list?
The heck with VCRs, What i really want to know is how to get Debian from changing my clock by 3 hours every time I reboot. Does any one know how to do this? I already tried setting the time zone to GMT. but no other linux distros seem to do this and debian does it on all my machines.
how the hell are those things gonna switch. Looking at the pictures of those guideways i can;t possibally think of a way it will work. If im going at 100 km/h and i want to turn right, but the car coupled infront and behind me wants to go forward. Thats just not gonna work.
i know that the lazer on playstations was perfectly capable of reading audio CD-Rs (althought you needed to use a mod chip to get a game on a CD-R working). After mod chips came into use they started putting in anti-mod chip measures into the newer versions of the playstation. They could have stopped modchips dead in their tracks on the newer models if they just stopped the lazer from being able to read CDRs. (some people above say its cheeper to do that, i dont know).
Does any one with a playstation 2 know if they can read CD-Rs ?
I dont understand this both Intel and AMD failed to produce enough chips for their demand. PEOPLE ARE ORDERING MORE CHIPS FROM INTEL AND AMD THAN THEY CAN PRODUCE!!!! The notion that PC sales were declining was an excuse made up by intel when they lost market share to intel and failed to meet analysists expectations. Both intel and AMD are working on increacing increacing their productivity. Dont belive the lies that intel is telling their stock holders.
My friend with moderate windows programming experence was able to write a windows sound card driver that was a disk writer. all it did was recive sound from windows applications like it was a sound card and write 44.1 kHz pcm sound (similar effect as winamps diskwriter output). This could be easily be converted to a mp3. Unlike with DVDs where such a driver cant be written, sound card drivers are so simple that anyone can write one.
so the bottem line is that any digital music that makes its ways to users in 44.1 kHz can easily be converted to wavs. and the whole idea of encreption and earmarking is pointless.

He did a similar thing for april fools a few years backp ril_fools04

After getting burned by 40-bit encpyption, they will probabally "innovate" 56-bit encryption next time and wonder why it gets broken again

this is just funny.
Delete one or more files to free disk space, and then try again

they were selling pressed cd that claimed to have all of oregons dmv records on them at defcon last year.

Dont forget microsofts implimentation of xor encryption for their screensaver password. (Stealing teachers passwords at school was a synch)
