Who cares if they regulate it, unregulate it... We'll be all back to 53K Modems anyway!
They can hang themselves with the cable for all I care !
That's also probably why the shares are going down.
"If price competition is "theft", why bother with a capitalist economy at all? "
No, it isn't a capitalist nor a command nor anything anyone tries to make you believe...
It is an pyramidal Oligarchy of the more fortunate, it has been and will allways be so
5% Rich like hell.
15% Rich enough.
80% Piss poor and powerless to change anything.
Shareholder Democracy gives the power by the wealthy to the wealthy.
The State is in deficit, it is broke and on its knees before the interest of the wealthy.
When Louis the 16 didn't please the wealthy of France, they aranged a revolt... They have the keys to all the gates and they sell you the guns to overthrow the system, so they can put a new and better serving one!
There is no escape from their clutches, Freedom is a lie, Justice is a lie, the Economy is a lie! We are nothing but slaves !
Actually I planned this long long ago... I recorded my guitar and messed up with cool edit + I amplified the thing until even if you had the volume really down it would make an "explosion" of noise;) Then I sent it off to mp3.com as "ops I did it again"
I know, I am a bastard!
Actually it didn't work, but it must have really anoyed people;) Call it an audio prank!
Yes, it was nagging me, but I couldn't quite figure what other thing there was about it.
Excellent point! I am sure it will be more sensitive. And they know that, and they want that. Their goal is to make us buy as many cds as possible... If they can make us come back to buy the same cd over and over, great for them!
Well, get an old fashion style cd player and plug into the way-in of the sound card, record into wav & encode it.
Otherwise, buy a good old walkman. They are dirt cheap. I guess its depressing we got to get back to the tapes... But then who really cares, it's not like we need that music to live...
I want to be able to try all games regardless of what hardware I have. If such division will occur we'd all be really pissed off. The developers and the customers!
Heck, I'll have to get a custom motherboard that houses two graphic cards slots! Plus I'll have to buy both of them!
What a pain! What a Pain!
Somebody kill the whores! Competitions good my ass! If you cant check what the other side has its like two fucking monopolies, what the hell do they think they're doing. Dont you rember when sound card where the pain in the ass issue. Because corporate whores like customer loyalty, they'll chain you up in the store.
We really needed that.
Like we allready didn't get enough shit with John Romero, Massively Multiplayers Offline Pains.
We needed to get off with a good start with incompatible video cards.
I tell you what ! If those fuckers go ahead I'll buy a Playsation !Screw them all !They can kiss their dollars good bye!
If I do get this correctly, if the enginer who made it dies, someone can come along and buy the patent off ?
Supose you invented ISDN, these guys come, buy it off from you for 10 000 bucks, wait until all companies use it and sue for billions in damages?
It hinted somewhere that it was intel engineers who put out the ammo for Techsearch's suit. In that case its partly intels fault (if they pay them like shit and treat them bad).
I'm not sure Techsearch are the good guys either, how much of the billions will go to those who really deserve it, plus did the guys who "stole their work" actually made major contributions?
Maybee it's the "janitor" who stole the enginer's plans?
Its no news that people get away with produceing stricly nothing. Unless you make Patent void when the inventor dies, it'll keep on happening.
Its the same for copyrights, J.Hendrix is dead! Why are his cds so expensive?
He did get fired like he should have been. MY guess his ego is still quite inflated and he has been ignoring criticism...
But it's good it mean that other goofy games will come out for us to poke fun of.
I think we will become more and more familiar with terms like "Diakatana Disapointment".
Consider that he's not alone, Cornered Rat and Funcom have been the cause of irritation lately. I think they actually have gone further than Romero in making angry gamers...
It's becoming more fun to read rantings and satire than to actually play the games.
Don't tell me that games in the past have been better, who remembers the days of win 3.1 when there was 30 diferent incompatible soundcards and ridiculous anti-piracy checks where they ask you to look for combinations of words in the manual.
I look forward to the next goofy disapointment that Romero will code for us. I won't buy it, it's allways for fun to read the rants and reviews than actually go through the tedious work of play the thing.
Maybee Romero should move to Afganistan, I' m sure the Taliban will adore him as a messenger,
prophet or whatever...

"To say "fuck the RIAA" in as many languages as possible? I just don't get it."
I guess it could be. That's probably the kind of attitude that brought them in this mess.
If only they kept a little quiet. Like a Warez site (it's quite tricky to find them)
But then at the time 1999, it was the net boom and all evryone though they could suck some money in.
"Hey I'm selling drugs through the net, I wanna be sponsored..."
You can fool someone a 1000 times, you can fool a 1000 people once but you can't fool a 1000 people a 1000 times:)

What did you expect ? Free Candy :)

Napster Reprieve
·
· Score: 1
That's just the judge's way of taking the piss out off it:)
Ohhh, guess we can still exchange other files in there... ohhh, looks like we could transfer other stuff than mp3s hahahahahaha ! We can use it for warez:) Wants some games/movies for free:)))
Anyways, Napster was doomed from the start. If only those idiots had managed to keep it away from the eye of the music industry.
As soon as it started to try and make money and become like a company it signed its death warrant.
That's the lesson, if you're into warez keep it free and hidden:)
And remember,You gotta rip them before they rip you...

If I understand this, I can speculate that for future discoveries and take the credit for them ?
It makes no sense at all !?
If you didn't make a prototype how could you patent the thing ?
You didn't do research for it, you didn't even plugged the thing together...
If this work, I can patent the idea of a Fusion Reactor. Sit on my butt and wait around for people to figure how to make one up and then claim "hey I had the Idea I take 5%, even though I did stricly nothing and I don't even know half about physics..."
This is a good way to stop progress. There won't be any flying cars etc... If people started to patent the thing and take away the money from the too-deserving engineers and workers who brought em up.
Then I hope must be awfully wrong in my conception of the story...
But then Human beings have never been very logical says Spock or whatever...
If you can Patent ideas or vague ideas, then what
can we do?
Might as well shut the Internet since it's a goldmine of free ideas for richer people to rip off and Patent.
Maybee if you got plenty of cash the you can patent what I just said so we have to pay for loggin off the net or switching the server:)
