If games caused people to behave oddly then more people would be jumping around on that building in New York that looks like the Qbert game board. And more people would be running around trying to eat ghosts and power pellets. Next they'll be saying the pokemons are the devils creation sent here to ring in Armageddon.
If parent would quit using games as a baby sitter then people might not think this of games. TV violence is a lot worse than video games for one reason. You actually see real people getting killed, hit, punched, shot. Oh and I think there has been an increase in this kids killing their peers incedents because of mass media coverage bringing it to all the kids in America. If someone was on the edge that would push them over thinking that someone will remember what they do in the same way. I didn't even watch one second of the Colombine shooting coverage. I just saw still pictures. My kids don't need to see that.
Oh come on, now that's a good one. And it seems that according to American Express they prohibit that sort of revenue from merchants. Now I don't know about Discover card. This guys wife probably divorced him over this stuff and he figures he will try and get her back by suing and getting more than he lost or something. Just another example of people trying to get over on the American Legal System. And as far as losing $25k, He must have been using a pretty high stakes place because most online casinos that I have seen don't let you bet like 1000 at a time or something. Anyway stupidity is always painful whether it's to the self or the pocketbook.
Hasn't he always been blind? I don't pay too much attention to him, but I thought he's always been blind, well since a little while after birth. I think it would be good for him to see again, I just think it would be a total shock for someone who has no recollection of seeing the world to suddenly have some site.
The new site has actually been up for about 3 weeks now I think. I remember going there and saying to myself wow I can actually read the page. When they had the one that was basically made for a low resolution I couldn't read a darn thing without having to really squint. I must agree that it does look a little like Yahoo though. Why shouldn't Redhat have Netscape and Lynx default to their page. Linux Mandrake already does that, or at least mine does.
Sounds like the government is charging the same thing back to the public as it does paying for stuff. Three attacks? How in the world would that equal anywhere near $40,000 in damage. I mean come on now. Unless they are paying someone 300 bucks an hour or something to reconfigure a machine. Oh well I guess I won't be learning how to crack into websites anytime soon. Not that I wanted to do it in the first place, this was enough to discourage me.
Seems like another group of people trying to make money off of the American legal system. Like an earlier post said if it gets there broke they will replace it. No one said the customer had to buy the insurance on the package. I don't think they push you into buying the insurance, so what if it is used off shore, isn't that legal? If it wasn't I don't think that they would have done it. This will probably fly so that others can make money in the future. I'm going to see Hostess because Twinkies(tm) made me fat. It's absolutly absurd and well that's my 1/2 cent.
This sounds absolutly crazy? I hope these people that did this study are rich people. Because if they did it just in the name of science, then I would have to say even smart people are really dumb.
Since when do religions have trademarks? I'm sure it's possible. It just makes me laugh that they are sueing someone who is against them. They were probably just waiting for a reason to pounce on these people. What is Scientology anyway? It just seems that actors and rich people on in this religion, I guess that means they have enough to afford court costs.
That should be a marketing campaign slogan to be used by Cauce in their fight against this crap. I don't even begin to look at spam. So if they DMA thinks it's working I don't know they think is looking at that email, but in another light they wouldn't be doing it on such a mass scale if someone wasn't looking at those sites and emails.
Write them down for the first week. Use the new passwords frequently, even if you don't have to use those accounts often, try to use them often for about a week. After that if you are any good at a number-letter password combo they should be engrained until the next time. It has always worked for me. Oh and don't forget to flush the passwords once you're done. Hate to see someone dumpster diving and finding a password or two.
Well IMO, Netscape was already headed down because of the hurting that Microsofts IE put on them. For a company that shipped other things besides browsers they sure didn't like someone taking market share from their browser. So how did they respond to this, they put out a browser that was and well is not stable, bug ridden, crashy (if that's a word) I have used Netscape from the 1st day I got on the Internet, I will probably continue to use them, but I have looked elsewhere and found better products from other companies.
I know AOL probably just wanted to brand name of Netscape because they are probably as tired of Microsoft as anyone else. So, with that in mind they merged with another Microsoft hater, Sun. And all the employees that were used to putting out good quality stuff were just being shuffled around like paper in a trashcan. I don't blame them for leaving.
I hope that AOL can pull this act together, and start shipping AOL disks with Netscape 5.0 as the browser as soon as it comes out. If they don't then we will know that they secretly bought out Netscape to crush its product and name and was paid to do it by Microsoft? Hmmm..
I have followed the Mozilla project from almost conception til now. I have downloaded every pre-alpha (may burn your HD) they have put out. It has gotten a lot better from the first builds. I like the newest interface they have put on it. It is a little buggy but hey it's not done yet. It finally loads Slashdot though and holds the login, so that for me is a bonus. It's runs pretty fast on the 60 Mhz Pentium Linux machine that I have right now. Can't wait til it's finished. That will be a grand day for the Internet in general and finally put my faith back in Netscape.
I use hotmail as a spam filter like just about everyone else. Heck even the one posted here is a spam account, but it doesn't get spammed. I have been going into my hotmail account everyday and if anything the amount of spam has increased. If they implimented anything I sure as hell can't tell. I guess it's time to use my mail filters on hotmail again, they don't work but they worked better than this RBL thing.
I hope this is aimed towards cell modems instead because well surfing at that speed on a regular cellphone with that little screen would be just pure overkill. And that cost will be passed on to the consumers for such access and well I'd rather have that at home and cellphone blank out too much anyway for it to be a smooth connection.
War is war isn't it. It is the killing of people or industries to make the other side bend under the pressure of your forces. Cyber-warefare should be no different. Cyber-warefare in my opinion wouldn't be nearly as costly in human lives and wasted dollars. Hacking is a lot cheaper than sending boat loads of Marines to another country.
Are these keyboards just for the palm pilots? I would just like to have one on my desk. My desk is just a little bit too small for my computer related stuff. I mean most times while surfing the web I don't type anything. With this keyboard I could just fold it up and put it away.
I think it means that the judge dismissed their summary of judgement motions based on the judges decision thinking that there is some antitrust in this case.
Matrix was the best movie I have seen in a long time. It leaves one wanting the story not to end at the end of the first one. It's good that they will make one that's in Zion. I know I can't wait til it comes out. I'm not going to wait for this one to come out on video.
This seems like a neat idea to me. If I had that kind of money laying around to buy one I'd do it. I think instead of putting a hottub in the cockpit I'd arrange a computer system to be in there sitting in the captains chair would take on a different meaning. Flight sim games would be even cooler. Come on Texas Lotto pick my numbers already.
You're right. The first computer I bought had Win 3.11 on it. The last two I bought came with No OS as per my request. I am not about to pay someone to install Windows or whatever else I want on my system. I didn't have to pay the licensing because I didn't have any Microsoft stuff on there from the get go except for the first one which I guess I did buy in '94. I do use Win 98 but I didn't buy it.
I can't say that I've ever paid for an MS product accept for Win 3.11 -- Which was better than 95 IMO. I really don't see alot of users forking out 219 bucks for an operating system. So when you buy a computer that has W2k on it are they going to hike the price accordingingly. Maybe Microsoft has ties to some bigger computer makers trying to keep the prices of computer falling below $1000. I for one will not be buying this new release. Even if I was I would wait til SP4 or something to come out. I'm glad there is Star Office. I might have to make this total switch sooner than later. All for the best I guess. Go LINUX!!
If they are not storing the info then why is it being sent to them in the first place. Does someone just look it over and then delete the message. Come on Real Networks people aren't dumb. Maybe they are storing it with some other company is that just as illegal?
Thanks for pointing that one out. I have just started using Linux myself and haven't really looked at all the settings in Netscape thinking they were all the same. I don't know if 4.61 has that in Windows because my motherboard is out on my Windows machine. thanks again though
They really don't, but when this major company can combine your webclick data with and actual real person, well that's kinda like spying. Not counting the amount of mail that could generate you in your mailbox. If you think that Junk Snail Mail is a dying breed think again. If they have you name and address and they feel that they could send you something in the mail and you buy I guarantee that it will be moving in your directioni rather quickly. Maybe that is what they are doing here as well. Maybe they are going into the Junk Mail business as well, using the online click methods to target mail to your house.

This story goes a lot more in depth. Click here The one on Zdnet was only a few sentences. This one is a lot longer trust me.
