I think you underestimate the varied tastes of those in the etree community. Take a look at this list of performers starting with the letter D traded and owned by members of the etree community. You will likely discover that that tapers and traders come from all walks.....
And don't forget to put the URL of your band in your sig line and post all over slashdot!
don't forget to join the related trading outlets (I suggest etree.) and offer freebies and B&Ps regularly. Then, put your URL in your sig and post promiscuously on slashdot.
How much I dispise Real Player and the general quality of realplayer downloads. I looked at one commercial and thought "Gawd, that's awful." I tried another and decided it wasn't worth my time. If you are going to do something, why not doing something that will make you proud? This would be a really cool site if the vids were worth watching. I was a teenager through most of the 80s and these games and ads really would have brought back memories.
I find that the most important factor of my XPpro Vaio laptop/Taurus wagon combination is whether or not the wireless adapter is sitting horizontal on the seat or held up closer to window level. On the seat, I pick up a few spots from the frontage road at 45 - 50mph. With it held up, I get lots of hits a 65 - 75 mph from the elevated highway. Hold the adapter vertically seems to improve performance. Guess the frame acts as a dampening field.
Yes, but I think the original poster would also like to know how. I have not yet gone beyond WEP with my linksys setup, and would also like to see instructions on how to designate allowable MAC addresses. I know, a google search should produce the instructions, but this seems like it would be good info for many in the slashdot crowd.
I was driving through my neighborhood, innocently watching my laptop which is equipped with zero snooping software, and noticed I suddenly had a "very low" signal. I circled around a bit and narrowed it down to a couple of houses. I wish I had a way to let this person know they were vulnerable. network: linksys user: (null) pw: admin
ok. They deserve whatever they get.
I would like a log to know which of my neighbors is trying to "share" my bandwidth.
try to convince the "Gimme Gimme" generation that it is their responsibility to police themselves. Likely the response you get will be "d00d" followed by some mostly incomprehinsible alpha-numeric gibberish and a complete blow0ff reminding me of the Pubes and Greys of Mid-World.
I downloaded the audio version of Stephen King's book "Talisman" from usenet in mp3 format last week. I was at Half-Price Books on Sunday, and though I already had all the downloaded files, I bought the the mp3 version of the book because the price was only $18. If the record companies could see this they might understand. I would never shell out $49.95 for lossy mp3 files, but would pay $18. Because the used market is the only place one will find this type of pricing, the distributors will not see these sales, but if they lowered their prices, I would not jack with the trust issues of usenet.
I have a friend who claims to have thousands of reggae tunes downloaded on her computer. She's listened to only a handful of them. This is the type of lazy user that causes problems.
People tend to relish the act of acquisition when they don't need everything they take. The excess stuff just accumulates. This reminds me of that article about our discards polluting Asia.....
who is it that is applying for this patent? Who has been doing the research? Any additional information available?
If I had one of these, it would make it easier to tell the wife and kids that "I was standing right there watching, didn't you see me?"
They have to do something. Since the move to UPN, something has been different. Buffy has gone the way of most sitcoms in that unless you have seen 3 of the 5 most recent episodes, the storyline is lost. Buffy used have stand alone episodes - each was fun, "light", and had both a beginning and an end. Lately, ever since Glorificus, it has been impossible to watch episodes out of order. The Buffy character seems to have been written into a corner, and even the introduction of the 3 arch nemisises (this is the slashdot tie-in) and their subsequent disposal has not been able break the cyclic decline into soap operadom. Maybe, if Faith kills everyone and becomes the dark slayer, we can return to the stand alone episodes of the early days and leave behind political statments and ratings whoring of the lesbian duo. I just wish they would do another musical episode. Once More, With Feeling is my favorite by far. My $.02 - and remember, an opinion is never worth more than you paid for it.
What about cds that suck?

Come up with some cool song titles and share them on a P2P network. Then put your URL in your sig and post promiscuously on slashdot.

and Kevin Bacon be on this flight, too? Tom was so heroic last time he went. I hope he has better luck this time..'
Of course they're launching from outside the USoA - It's far too expensive to meet the pollution standards without being an exempted agency.
you forget, I hold a patent for "warshuttling" - using a digital device from space to detect RF transmissions. Can you say "lawsuit?"
Ahh, but I hold the patent on a method of verifying landing sites with a digital imaging device from space.
I've taken vhs that was macrovisioned, converted to hi-8, digitized, re-sized and encoded to mpeg 2 and had it look waaaay better than these....

try War flying: San Diego covered on slashdot previously.

So far as I know, virii is not a word. Try "viruses"
And, yes, I tell people about their vulnerabilities, and no, I don't put them on the internet.
I had a professor who was "older than dirt." We could ask him.

I see TP2TP and thin "TP" or toilet paper.

Hush is my all time favorite #2! Seriously spooky, no doubt.
Most excellent analysis. I love all the decryption stuff.
