I don't get it... he said the same thing to you that he said to me. "Almost a year" he qualified that statement with a date on my email, but didn't on yours.. but March is damn near a year. So I'm wondering what the point to your response is? Are you seriously entertaining this guy's claim that a site that has been around for 3 years would gank his article? Or is it more likely that the guy trying to make 10 bucks on eopinions ganked theirs... No... I'm sorry I've been reading Reviewboard shit for almost a year myself and I have to say that I really can't believe that they would steal a review... so I have to conclude that this idiot that wrote for eopinions is the thief...
Again, no proof, no headers from emails from the 'editor' just some ranting that this guy is making up. I have the editor's email response here, and that's not what he told me.
Oh yeah there is a brain fart, I read an article while searching around for shit to do, was impressed and sent a link to slashdot and now I'm some "insider information guy". HAHA there is a stretch. You must be sherlock holmes. Frankly I don't give a shit if the guy did rip your article off, it has nothing to do with me, but I believe them, an accredited site that's been around 3 years, over you and your lamer friend who "Claims" he wrote it for "epinions" a total idiot site.
Sites that have been around for 3 years don't rip off articles. People that write for eopinions to make their 2 cents per thousand view article passthrough do.
Really you talked to the editor? What's his email address? Do you have it? I'd like to know it and see the email you are talking about. Because I got a response too and he said it's been up almost a year (MARCH 2000) so I'd say... you're lying... How many accounts does this fraud have here?
your theft was posted in December? The reason it is on their cover is it is being hit more than any other review right now (their site dynamically shifts content based on popularity).
Those are the answers I got when I emailed the editor. Nice try there bud, but I think your "Epinions" review was a total rip off and you are just trying to look good. Nice try.
ahah you know what man... you're just jealous you don't have one to play with. Go cry in someone else's corner I thought the review was informative, and it left me thinking about what I could pawn to get one of these beasts.
Gore is an idiot, he gave up during the first night when the news announced the 'winner'. Where I'm from that means you quit, and you can no longer participate. He gave up on national television, and now he's going to fight it out? What a loser.
I must say that I'm surprised to hear that Austrian companies are so hard up for business that they would do business with the likes of IRAN/IRAQ and friends.
I say why bother? Who cares about the American export law, why would you want to do business with people that want to design, make and worse yet, USE chemical weapons and other biological warfare devices?
Also note that West Coast Video didn't have to pay anything (unless that 25,000 bond was forfeit.. and I didn't see that anywhere). Because they weren't in the same business it was ruled that there was no damage. So in otherwords if you use "MS WINDOWS" as a meta tag, and you don't code OS's and sell them, they can't get you for any money. Which seems to me like it's not that big of a threat. (Although my mother is a lawyer so I'd get representation for free (grin)) - However, Linux sites that offer the download, or products might want to be careful. If one thing is a constant it is the fact that Bill Gates has money to pursuit anything.
I happen to have some interesting insight on the RIAA... Basically you have suits that have never been on the net, (unless they were at disney.com with their kid) and they don't understand that the people that presented them with "evidence" of piracy made those.mp3 files for them. They don't understand what they have to go through to get decent ones, and that it certainly isn't something mainstream or even close to it. They see the threat as some surreal royalty stealing cookie monster, not as a few people snagging a single from time to time. [hehe excuse my while I exagerate the downloading of mp3's to make my cause seem less blightful on the RIIA]
If you'd stop using winblows to download then you'd be able to take advantage of the superior TCP/IP stack linux has to offer. Another option is to stop being so lame and get on a decent site. I'm on a euro VCD site and get 600 - 700k per second. I download a VCD in no time at all, and if you can't handle.rar files I guess that answers why you can't handle linux:p
This is basically how I envisioned the design. The screen tracking the movements of your head/face seems unlikely... You would think that in order for the images to sync up properly it would have to focus more on where your eyes are. If it were some kind of head gear that you lined up say near your temples (the side of each eye) or something like that...
