I was unemployed for 3 months. What was the biggest luxary I had spent money on? Seeing lord of the rings. Yes. That was my biggest luxary spending. Well, that and food.
With ~5.6% people unemployed, and cut backs of course... WHERE DO YOU THINK WE WILL GET THE MONEY TO BUY $18 CD'S!!
Thank God I'm into older stuff now. At least those are a little cheaper...
Charging for standards, or even make them unknown to the public (if that were possible), would cause others to create new standards. I.e. Windows audio. If asf compressed down twice as much as mp3 at the same bit rate and such, everyone would want it. Question is, would everyone get it. There's no support for many OSs.
What would happen if WC3 started charging? People would develop their own technologies, or use wc3 "illegally". People being MS, Mozilla, Konqueror, Lynx, a small group of develoeprs...
Won the desktop market that is. If I were to say, do something that did complex rendering, not for video games mind you, like produce Shrek, every proverbial inch matters. I bet the SETI people would wish for a farm of 3Ghz machines of 10 machines that could work on packets of data. Nvidia and intel could pair up in one way or another to produce a special video chip. Would they want to? Who knows. But imagine a video card so fast that yet again, the bus is too slow.
Don't rule Intel out yet, but certainly give AMD its due props for making fast computers for so cheap. I remember my IBM DX4-100 costing $300, mb and chip. Memories.. o/~
If you run it as two seperate processes you sure can. have the JVM running some bit of java. if you can figure out where in memory certain vars are, i'm sure another process which would be able to address that specific memory location might be able to corrupt it. mind you, the second process most likely can't be in java.
so as you see my friend, its not totally wrong unless the JVM kept track of the intergrety of the byte code in memory.
hard as fuck, but don't be surprised if something like this possibly happens
Java and C++ make it a little more difficult. C++ if you don't use pointers mind you. But I'm sure a well timed exploit can be made should java try to make a null pointer exception. If the JVM tries to execute some code and an exploit is made so that when the reference is made (which was null), it goes into running an exploit writen in byte code.
Until you wish to open a file/device. Languages are never truely secure.... programming methods are. People are people and will make mistakes that cause security problems.
Just becomes something does something in error doesn't mean its exploitable. If say the newest OBSD distrib forgot to provide a copy of disklabel, that's a pretty serious bug. You can't do a fresh install. A denial of service? Hardly. If the/etc/services file was missing an entry for httpd, it's an inconvenience, but still a bug.
Maybe I've been trolled, but thought I'd clear that up. A bug is an error in that a piece of functionality isn't right. An exploitable program or process can be a subset of it... that is, if being exploitable isn't part of the original plan.
Forcing you to register the game and them e-mailing you the private key could be a solution. If you don't have a net connection, then they could mail it to you.
When the file arrives, just plop it in the right place or have a program do it for you.
Many years before electronic computers were invented George Bernard Shaw observed :
If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange apples then you and I will still each have one apple. But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas.
Clearly he wasn't married or had kids. "How many times have I told you..." or "Can you please..." Right in one ear, out the other.:)
I'd rather a "Robot, Mime Smasher" Not a smasher of Robotic Mimes. Well, maybe them too. Just something that smashes mimes. Disturbing group of people. *shudder*
Them and mime attachments. Hey, could be an e-mail virus killer.
You also forgot the dumber reason. A clear hd in a chasis, clear or not, is barely visible. Unless the entire chasis, inners and all are clear, how can you see the drive? It has to attach to something metal, unless you are using a completely clear chasis.
Not even why should they feel compeled to let 3rd parties access their network, but why must they feel compelled to allow 3rd parties to use the non-3rd party protocol.
Anything else. Why? Every wma player for the mac sucked. What the hell does a music player, a simple one, need 32 megs of ram for? And it barely worked. Gimme mp3 at least.
No, its just a brain fart. I bought my 433 at the wopping low price of $1600 about 9 months ago. Its a matter of all the people who have one wanting the new one:)
It might become social boundaries, no? I wouldn't exactly go into the #linux channel asking for windows help or the #cars channel to ask about writing a resume.
It made me wonder if social boundaries would actually make gnutella and the rest less chatty. Like I don't have any movies on my hd nor am I on them to download movies, why should i receive traffic on it?
Problem is if I want to be on multiple networks, I have to have multiple connections. That or tags saying what I have, what I don't and the type of traffic I wish to propagte.

No ground? Great, no circuit anymore :)

Only if we can keep measuring it in FLOPS and sounding silly when talking about it. "Yeah, this new MIPS chip runs in the tera-flops."

Doesn't the "I Love You"/SirCam/Nimbda virus already do this? :)
But you have to look at it from an angle, what's the point?

Thus the old adage (s?), "You keep doing that and you'll go blind." :)
And in darkness bind him? Oi vey. :)
a:"I'm not dead, I'm married."
b:"No, you're married, not dead is how it really is."
Who would wanna cell phone in their ring? Keep it in your shoe like any professional spy.
We are talking about Apple and Macintosh here. Try an orachard :)

There's the free-to-implement TOC protocol.

Apparently this guy thought wrong:
1. Spam resume
2.
3. Profit!
Maybe he'll figure out 2 someday.
From the title of the article, am I the only one who read that and thought of the UK going "Hulk smash!" and causing massive damage and casualties? :)

Just food for thought.
