    Really? I think you should go tell everyone about every story that you don't care about. No wait, even better, everytime you see something you don't care about, tell people about it, and not only that, expect them to care about you not caring.

    Umm, so when i went to see Aeon Flux and Ultraviolet, I'm to understand that.. these movies were based on science?

    You know, it's just a sci-fi movie right? These things don't exists, so why are you explaining how they actually work?

    Alright, next time you get beaten at work for not producing enough tshirts during your 16 hour shift, i'll be sure to call you up and tell you a nice joke at your expense and tell you to lighten up, it's .. just a joke!

    I don't question that, in general it isn't a problem since i don't do drugs nor do i look like i do.

    the landlord thing was a problem though because he tore up a signed contract, he tricked me into handing it to him.. :S

  7. Re:Erm.. on Beware Your Online Presence · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Actually i planned on doing so since it was a signed lease and he had tricked me into handing it to him a day after it was signed. I wanted to persue it in court, however i had far too many things to do that a court case was simply something i didn't have the time or money for.. not to mention the fact that i needed to find a place to live..

    I once had a lease torn up in front of me by a landlord after he found out that i'm a DJ and a rave promoter.. and at my last 5 interviews i've had potential employers ask me about my website www.rave.ca and if i do drugs etc.. this is all stuff they've found by looking up my name in google. oh well.

    no, a public company is one that's owned by the government and is owned by all.

    google is a private company that has shares sold to the public on an open market. you really should know the difference.

  10. Re:Stanton Final Scratch on Learning to DJ? · · Score: 1

    Sorry to call BS on you, but there's no way you mixed a tight beat on your first try with vinyl. I know many DJs, most of them are crap and they've been at it for years. I've never seen anyone master a turntable in anything less than a few months.

    "Going from DJ Software to CD:s is a minor change today, most CD:s can even play the same mp3:s directly."

    Sorry to tell you this, but switching from Software to CD's is not at all a minor change. Software you're playing around with a keyboard, the real thing means manipulating a job dial with your hands and requires quite a bit of practice just like using turntables.

    If you learn on software, don't expect to ever make the switch to hardware like turntables or CDs, the learning curve will be pretty much the same as learning it all over again.

    Here's a better question..

    Who defines what "porn" is?

    If i run a BBS and someone posts a pornographic image.. do i suddenly have to give up my .com and move to .xxx?

    Do i have to remove the image?

    This is way ambiguous..

  14. Re:Parodies, "fair use" and Melbourne IT on Australian PM Has Parody Site Shut Down · · Score: 1

    Exactly. Here in the awesome USofA such things are protected. You are free to openly disagree with the President and his policies with NO WORRY of retribution. In other countries doing things like that would get you fired from your job, put on the nofly list, or even worse they dig up dirt on you and your family in an attempt to embarass or discredit you if you try to tell the truth.

    Yeah, unless you try showing your disagreement in protest form, in which case you get arrested for 'unlawfull assembly'..

  19. Re:Problems on Digital Cinema Not Quite There Yet · · Score: 1

    I'm pretty sure IMAX prints are worth more than that. When i worked for technicolor i was told that a standard 2000foot reel of 35mm was worth about $2,000-$3,000 each.. and most prints are at least 6 reels long..

    since IMAX is twice the size that should quadruple the price..
