Umm... it IS illegal. So are most forms of cracking. It's still reasonable to suggest that people use more secure tools when they venture onto the Internet.
Stealing is illegal, does that mean you're not going to lock your doors?
Anyone notice the Civic that appears rather suddenly at 1:26 and quickly disappears? It's facing the camera so I figure this is pretty weird to have happen on the highway. I thought maybe I was imagining it so I just ignored it, but then later on the Civic shot shows up at the gas station at 2:10. Pretty weird, must've been a goof? Or a subliminal Civic advertisement?
What pad is the best bang for the buck? I bought a $50 pad at buynshop.com, it died within 2 months, and they say it's out of warraty. Granted that I weigh 220lb, and I don't want to spend $200, what should I get?
I did, the silver paste crap at CompUSA. Well first I used the AMD-supplied cooler which had their own compound on it, but then on my aftermarket coolers I used the silver compound. The 1700 and 2600 I set up never overheat, but the 2000 for some reason did. Maybe it was a fluke, but again I just didn't have very good luck with them.
It may just be me, but I'm shy of AMD now because I've seen 2 out of 3 processors bought from their XP line die in my hands. Maybe I suck at building systems, but I've never had this problem with Intel. One was replaced under warranty (and still in use almost a year later), and one I never bothered with because I was given a P4 hand-me-down which I am now using in its place...
I was not overclocking or doing anything unusual, just plugged them in and used them. All three worked fine at first, but one died without warning after about 3 months, another consistently ran way too hot (I went through 3 fans/heatsinks trying to keep this thing under 60C) until it cooked.
Anyone have similar experiences or am I just a weirdo?
If only that were the case...
People are so ignorant that they are happy to give up all privacy for no reason whatsoever. Either that or they don't even realize they're giving something up...
I wish your vision of an active community resistance to such measures could be true.

For example, slashdot.org is at the very bottom of the location bar history even though it's the site I visit most frequently.
Good comment, many good points. I think this is what made Enemy at the Gates a good movie...

Interestingly enough, 1 3 3 1 appears in Pacal's triangle. Just being weird here.

Shut up, AIRHEAD!
Yeah, if you define "Opt in" as forgetting to uncheck a tiny checkbox in an isolated region of the page.
Oh yeah, and that checkbox gets reset to "On" if anything's wrong with the form the first go round. That's my favorite part.

I felt ripped off at Episode I, and I'm certainly not paying anything to see the next one.
