If you're interested in guitar effects and amps, but like me lack serious cash, check out SlumTone. It's a little project I'm working on. Lemme know what you think.
The rise of Digital photography will only push film photographers in to the catagory of artist. Photography comes from Greek meaning "light writing". I take pictures with a Holga, Ansco Shure-Shot, Kiev 60 and a Canon AE-1 because I like the way the pictures look. The first two produce images that are far from technically perfect but are still beautiful. It's sort of a contrived imperfection. The Kiev take great medium format pictures for its price, and the AE-1 handles things like family gatherings and friend's weddings. I have one old digital camera which is ok, but I'm not really drawn to the medium. I like working with "antiquated" camera's just like I enjoy playing guitar through tube amp and analog effects even though digital effects are "better". There is something to be said for the warmth of analog imperfection.
Just for grins check out Digital Sucks for interesting Holga photography.
The speec refernces a paper written in 1974 that describes the hack in greater detail and axpands on variations. The Multics article Ken referenced can be found HERE and the trapdoor he discusses is around page 52 or so.
I recall my grandfather telling me as a kid about the early 1970's CB radio problem. It turns out that the FCC initially required licenses to operate a CB radio. Truckers and the general public broke this rule in such numbers that the FCC dropped the requirement all together to aviod looking stupid. Obviously this situation can be applied to today's music "sharing" situation. Here the laws forbid the act of private citizens giving out thousands of copies of copyrighted music, but millions of people disregard those laws and most are better off for it (having more music for less money afterward). Do you believe this civil diobedience to be a legitimate expression of one's sentimate towards these regulations? If so, how far away can the "critcal mass" of file sharing be? Does this disregard for the current statutes help the cause or detract from it by branding music sharers as hacker/thieves.
Thanks, and mad props to artists that speak their mind!
Since today a girl's viginity is just about worthless (in terms of dollars) and it's nowhere near as difficult to get married as a non-virgin. Just a thought.
Bresson used a device sold online for about $200 by United Kingdom-based Canopus.
These are pretty cheap by comparison! Seriously though, are RF modulators an anti-DMCA device now? You can copy copy-protected VHS tapes with them. I'm sure (i hope) that Adam demonstrated a more impressive technology than this, but the article was short on details and so is Canopus' website. Maybe they are charging top dollar for RatShack parts!
Yep you're right, I misread the article and assumed that anticounterfieting had something to do with the accounting measures bill currently before the Senate. Sorry I confused the issue and jumped to conclusions (like that's never happened before on/.) My bad, please disregard my origninal post as retarded and uninformed!
You can write/call/email/whatever you Senator as much as you want, it won't accomplish anything on this go around. Why? Because if you haven't noticed (the article directly benieth this one;) the US economy is in a death spriral from Very Bad(tm) accounting scandals. The country NEEDS Corporate accounting reform and having short attentions spans means this has to be done quickly. No Congress(wo)man in their right mind would say nay to this bill just because a bunch of geeks (who are probably criminal hackers anyways) think one page bunk. I'm not trying to troll here, but think of it from the point of view of someone who sees computers as a newfangled typewriter. Saying no to this bill would lose a Senator more votes than it would gain them. Anyways, if nobody follows it, it won't be enforced after a while (I mean really, we already have a higher percentage of people in jail than Stalinist Russia did,) and the law will prolly just end up on dumblaws.com
Apache can do this all by itself, using mod_ssl and mod_proxy you can setup your own personal tboy-like service. Add basic autorization to it and you can even keep the scr1pt k1dd13 spammers out, something tboy won't do!

Ok, I looked at OverPeer's parent company's website, SK.com. Apparently SK also owns SK Telecom which surprise surprise, has a BIG friggin network. Want to bet they're going to leverage some of this address space for their burgeoning new company? My suggestion is to black hole this huge frickin network. You can do what ever you want to your own machines, so I suggest adding "route add -net 63.106.192.0/18 127.0.0.1" to your rc.local, rc.net or autoexec.bat if you sit down to pee. If you run a web server add this command to that server too. If enough peeps do this, they're business will suffer (lets see them operate a telecom that can't get to a bunch of sites). And it's legal. Propagating that route to a misconfigured ISP would be illegal and I DO NOT ENCOURAGE ANYONE TO BREAK THE LAW. You are simply denying this company and it's clients access to your system for political reasons and as a side benefit, may get fewer bogus files on Gnutella.
ExtractStream doesn't seem to work on Tivo3.0 and by the looks of the page hasn't been updated for a year. I tried it the other night on Tivo3.0-01-00 series 1, it couldn't even display the "Now Showing" list.
Pricewatch rates sellers by price, my advise though is to know what your buying, and buy parts manufactured by reputable companies as they are the ones you'll probably contact if the hardware has problems.
That's the advice my dad gave me when he dropped me off at college. It's clear, consise, and still rings true years after graduation. He said his father gave him the same advice when he was dropped off on his first day of college. I'm sure I'll be giving my children the same advice when they go away to school, but first I have to make some kids.

First let me say I'm an audio geek and a computer geek too. Here's the command center. The audio/video area, and yeah those speakers can handle 500 watts rms *each* :) Don't forget the guitar amps And finally the shelves I built to hold the 30 some guitar effects I collect. And yeah, that's an Apple Network Server on the bottom of the rack running Linux!
It's the admin contact for their domain gleaned from the networksolutions whois database:
(650)251-1100
Arin has the same number for the tech contact. Atleast it's a start! Go get 'em tiger!

The companies also agreed to distribute $75.7 million worth of CDs to public entities and nonprofit organizations in all 50 states.
Is that $75.7 million worth of CDs at the fixed price or at production cost?

And not for growing flowers per se. Hey it is as legal as lock picks (as in not illegal until used illegaly).
I remember as a kid on the playground starwars was _ALL_ that was played it was cool. now it has trancended cool and formed itself into nerdy obsession.
