I suppose Jonko means fluctuating and ping, well means ping...
Or "we own j00, with our l33t ping".
I suppose any town that ends in ping can't be all that bad. After all it does come down to da king of ping.
would I need the Fast and the Furious soundtrack when I have the svc...uhhhh...never mind, carry on....
I'm sure these CD's will remain as safe as DVDs... as safe as SMDI.... as safe as a Locked doo.... as Germany's Enigm... as the Watergate scanda.... Clinton's affai...
Damn, I guess they sure proved me wrong, you can keep people from excercising their rights. Just when I thought I had the right to free speech...the stopped it by keeping me from finishing a thought.
(Harvey Corman: "Me using viagra is like putting a brand new flagpole on top of a condemned building"....not related, just funny as hell)
I guess the next step is security thru obscurity, if you can't see the code, you can't break the protection on it.
(mmmmphh, snort..../me struggles to keep composure)
RIAA kills napster; one less reason for broadband.
MPAA kills divx groups on @home...another reason to not have BB.
@Home Caps users after a year to 128K/s, then 128k/s (12Kbytes/s...ick)and offers no "business class" or upgrades (despite @work being advertised); yet another reason to not have broad band.
Bell Sloth^H^H^H^HSouth only gurantees a 9600baud connection on its phone lines....I'm sure that will do wonders for DSL...uh, huh, you betcha (doesn't resistance make electrons stronger?...sure, skippy, sure).
The @home cap, btw, pisses off a lot of gamers...first reason I got @home...la, la, laaa..yet another reason to not need BB (more to the point...@home).
Killing off the divx groups...more traffic to the "outside" world of @home, prolly did their backbone a world of good...
I dunno, it seems that @home is in the dark about customer service, support and satisfaction...perhaps the need some sort of "Magic Lantern" to light their way (SEG).
the FCC decries "interference" from LPFM sources, when FM now a days is so over taxed a radio station, local, highpower, less than 5 mile away gets blotted out by NO LESS than 3 other stations.
It is quite disconcerting to be rocking out to a good rock/metal song and have a country tune of "my dog left me, took my truck and ran over my girl on the way out"... sheesh. And on a daily basis no less.
Changing channels does not matter, same sh*t, different station.
Oh, and wouldn't it be funny if this were on *Wired's* website first?
(heh, electronics tech before I was a 'puter tech...some habits never leave)
A C&D letter (a legal threat, essentially) is insufficient?
So, I suppose a Bomb threat poses insufficient evidence of harm as well? If it is *just a threat* and *no on is hurt*...that is insufficient evidence of harm.
A threat, is a threat, is a threat.
So, perhaps we should send a Cease and Desist letter to the RIMPASS's (riaa/mpaa ass.'s, if you missed the joke) telling them to stop breathing...and actually have it sent from the EFF's law offices.
Say that thier lungs are a circumvention device that converts our precious Oxygen into a deadly device called Carbon Dioxide, that could potentially kill a human being and not a facimilie that they seem to be (hey? is a lawyer imitating a human being a copyright violation? Is he/she real or are they Memorex?).
These and other fine synaptic misfires are brought to you by:
After all we have OS X and this upcoming movie has been abbreviated ST X...coincidence?
I think not! (as opposed to I think, not!...punctuation does make a difference).
Just like with napster, Kazaa et al, make a program that is a vehicle for "whatever behaviour" the individual uses it for. Correct?
In my mind, it seems as if "infringment" is aking to DUI/some other flagrant violation.
Now, when accidents/infringments occurs...instead of punishing the offenders, the RIMPASS's(thanks register) go after the "auto/program" makers.
I recall the "upgrade" required a previous version. Yet, you could boot off the disk and install normally...WTF? 'kay.
Win9X full version would not upgrade/downgrade and version, except that exact version.
You know what I found? Delete win.com or rename it, and you can take any version of windows up/down grade wise. Could not believe how easy that was.
One cavet on that, if the system is really messed up, it won't help 70% of the time. Others it will fix whatever ails the prvious version.
This remove the "checkforosx" script is almost laughable....perhaps you could leave the script there and rename it to win.com? Heh.
I may be asking a silly question, but has anyone done a comparison of the "changed" X.1 vs the "full" X.1? A file by file or bit by bit check of everything?
Any other differences than 1 file?
Or is this some artificial difference...(artificial, ain't quite right...but all I can think of)...the addition of one script?
Anyone tried adding the script to a full version?
Does it use it or ignore it?
Inquiring minds and all...

We know the law is wrong. We know it is being used "in a threatening manner". We know it is being used to "intimidate someone to 'death' (physical/social/monetarily/pursuit of happiness and/or acadameia)".

Pardon my cynicism, but it seems the only current truth (reading between the lines) of "C&B" is:
Big Corporations write the "Checks" to give judges, lawyers, and politicians bigger "Balances".
Those are the "checks and balances" of our political and judiciary system today.
