How in hell's name is this PayPal story going to affect my 'Rights Online' ??? Don't like paypal ? Don't use em. Their are others you know! (like nochex.com and e-gold.com) simple.
I just wish people would Stop putting 'Ster' on the end of everything in the vague hope that it will make them famous or something. Now that Aimster/Madster is deadster can we finally have SilenceSter from all those napster copies of P2Pster SoftSter pleaseSter ? FreeSter is NOTSter a bussiness model. Ster.
since they (laywers) realised the DMCA existed, they've successfully used it to attack down
just about any decent innovation on the internet.
DeCSS, Napster/MP3 trading, and now eBooks
Add to that the huge amount of spying and useless coorporations that are trying to patent every single significant part of the.net and it's amazing anything actually usefull can happen.
What the hell is actually going on here ? Power Struggle maybe ?
Can't fix the 'economy' so they have to attack EVERYTHING else good that we have left. ?
It's a downward spiral from here folks, and I don't know about you, but I am jumping ship while I still can. It's time to either get an outdoors normal non-geeked life, or... do something about it like the folks at the freenet project or else it will be a dismal future for the net.
Obviously fake.. if you guys believe all that anti-ms rubbish (including those so-called "memos") then you need your head checked for sanity errors.
as everyone knows sanity errors are the number one cause of "the downfall of the internet".
I did the same thing.
I got caught hacking my schools network.
why ? because schools have a tendancy to
completely ignore the most talented individuals they have in class, just like everyone else.
if you know you have real talent, it's frustrating
and irritating to watch everyone ignore you.
sad, but true.
I had fully planned on getting caught (otherwise I wouldn't have done it in the first place)
I got a one week suspension.
To me that was just a free holiday.
and I enjoyed it too.
if you can't do the time, don't do the crime. simple.
This kid was just insane in the first place.
oh and it didn't help the school "emphasising the criminal aspect".
my school did do that, but luckily they also saw the talent I had, and let me off fairly lightly.
What am I doing now 7 years later ?
I'm a programmer/analyst for a living, earning
one seriously nice amount of money:)
if the kid wasn't warped in the first place, he could have ended up in my position now...
oh well, guess we'll never know..
here's a perfect example of it working in the adult world -
www.ppvn.com
and of course
www.TokenBank.com
It's pay per view or rather the online equivalent.. Pay per use.. Sheesh you guys are slow if you didn't know about that NEW Url allready !
According to the dictionary
art is a skill,a craft. Art in short, is something we create.
The only difference between "programming" and "art", is infact
the medium upon which is chosen to perform the desired "art" or "skill".
programming just simply means an art form that utilises a programming language as
it's medium.
design is an "art" form.
creating sound is an "art" form.
programming, is an "art" form.
basically the medium on which someone chooses to be creative, should not and does
not make a single bit of difference, the point is, if it was created it involved
some form of "art" or rather "skill" to do so.
Every single byte, bit, mime blob or script ever created is "art", no matter what form.
"art" is just something that required individual skill to create and thus is unlimited in it's medium.
I create software, this requires skill, theirfore the result, my program; is art.
