There's a file in one of the folders (Divx Codec i think) that contains a file "gain_trickler.exe" which is set to startup in the windows registry. Just delete the entry in regedit and delete or rename the file. (I'd give exact instructions, but I'm at work now with no access to the program...it's not hard to figure out though.)
Why is it so important to run Linux on the Xbox? I sort of understand the thrill geeks get from this, but what makes it worth giving away a $100,000 prize?
Does this further the OSS movement someway or is it just an "in your face" gesture to Microsoft?
Reminds me of a story I once heard (don't know if it's true or not.)
During the early NASA days, they had a hard time developing a pen that would write in zero gravity, but after spending a rather large sum of money, they made one.
When faced with the same delema, the Soviet space program used a pencil.
Carrier's already have problems with their respective services and now everyone expects this to just work perfectly because the FCC says so.
I wouldn't port my number unless absolutely necessary. I think people will have a lot less trouble if they just cut their losses and go with a new number. Keep the old number's voice mail in service for a month or so and leave the new number as the message.
While it is quite funny is see our politibots when they get caught in their hyrpocrisy, I hope I wasn't the only one who wasn't surprised to read this.
Nevermind all those insignificant details about due process, and 'innocent until proven guilty' crap. It all comes down to one simple, all-encompassing rule that will apply to every case you'll ever read about.
The person actually talking to you is just some poor schmuck in Arizona or Delaware making $6.50/hr
We need to direct our ire at those who are profiting from this

Sorry, I missed your point, but you realize that corrupt politicians, greedy corporate criminals, and mafia hitmen are just trying to pay the rent too. Oh well...
I'd prefer a no-spam list over a no-call list. I can always waste the telemarketer's time (let them go thru their entire pitch and then say something like "What's that? Could you speak up a little?") and cost the telemarketing company money. As I've said before, if enough people did this, there would be no need for a do-not-call list.
Spam, however, offers little or no means of retaliation. So I just start praying...
"Merciful Lord, look down upon your humble servant and strike down the heathen company which seeks to increase the size of my privates and undo your good work. Rain tumors and boils upon them and cause their Exchange servers to crash."
Lock this man in an iron box that is only 5% larger than his body mass...give him just enough room to bang his head against the walls until he dies from head trauma.
"Well, of course, we could use it against anyone we like, but we promise to only use it against bad people....[mumbles something about definition of 'bad' people.]"

Motorola C331t is not a GAIT model. It's TDMA. Currently, Cingular uses no Motorola GAIT models...only the Sony Ericsson T62u and the Nokia 6340i.
Does Motorola even make a GAIT model?
You mean the Nokia 6340i. That's the other GAIT phone.

Does RedHat 9 include this? I was thinking of installing a dual boot on my win2k boot, but didn't want to reinstall windows again.
Wasn't cancer cured years ago, but the treatment is more profitable so nobody knows about it?
No wait, Medicine Man flashback...nevermind.
Yeah. If murder was legal, I wouldn't have enough spare time to post this.
Sorry for modifying your abortion joke, George.
I've noticed that most of the anti-nudity holier-than-thou crowd in America are people you wouldn't want to see naked anyway.

And I'm not trolling. This is a serious question.
It would be a big plus if this could support Buzz machines.

Oh my god, what a rare and shocking revelation.

'Deliverance' and 'Hee-Haw's Greatest Moments'
Isn't AAC used for its DRM features?
If so, why should I care about its quality?
It's kinda like owning a card that can do 160mph, but only allows you to drive on roads with speed bumps every 20 feet.

Whoever has the most money wins...period.
Hope they try it.
Unless it costs him more to work there than what he is paid, yes.
