For interests sake, FRAPS will half your framerate, on average, because it is duplicating and storing it. Not to mention hard drive access. Now if the sectors are empty that the dump is going to, then FRAPS runs better, but if it's overwriting to sectors, results are even slower.
Cooperative strategy benefits all of the robots, and is therefore a higher level of thinking than knowing how to cheat some of your peers out of life, in order to horde resources.
When p2p groups apply simple scramble audio sequences that can't be heard. Better yet, when you burn a song onto a CD as an audio file, and then re-rip the song (as recently disclosed by Sony), then you get a clean copy.
But go ahead and spend billions on that idea of yours. I'm sure that people who want to thwart the tyranny will simply come up with a way to get this stuff for free.
What they really need to do is make some music that's worth paying for.
Just to let you know, in case you haven't figured it out... Intel doesn't need to badmouth the competition. Intel employees are some of the biggest zealots available on the market and HR at Intel hires based on how much of a zealot a person can be for their brand. Brand loyalty is the number one trait that Intel HR is looking for in a potential employee, above and beyond skill level. If you have ever had a conversation with an Intel rep you will know exactly what I'm talking about. They store up a bunch of company info and spew it at you, nonstop.
Therefore I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that this is a zealot who decided to take the zealotry to another level in the form of a website.
Zealots take business to the personal level, and therefore it would be false to suggest this was a paid-for stunt by Intel... even if they cop to it. A PR person might suggest that Intel takes the fall for this in order to drive the free media exposure higher than it has to be (businesses actually do that stuff sometimes), but that wouldn't be the truth, IMHO.
Flying a plane into a meteor shower just seemed like a scientifically brilliant thing to do. Haven't these guys seen a Hollywood movie ever? The rocks will smash the plane into bits!
You lower a giant glass cone down from the ceiling and stand under it. You also hope that nobody brought a recording device to the conversation, or that they might be able to get under the cone somehow, like by listening to small vibrations in the floor. Or worse, you pretend to be someone you are not by wearing a fake mustache.
This is a feature I've long since looked for in a website that has factual content, like Wikipedia (minus chip-on-shoulder admins). Krol should prevent astro-turfing well, as long as Google protects against dupes and has other beneficial restrictions.
"Sirs, I respectfully suggest we begin an operation to download the Internet for further analysis. Budgetary requirements to fulfill this necessity will begin at 500 Billion USD, adjusted for our bad dollar value to approximately 800 Billion USD."
"I concur! Commence downloading! The sooner we start, the sooner we'll get to the bottom of this Internet conspiracy!!"
I'm pretty sure you can bind data to a specific hardware device if you want to. So at the time you encrypt data, you bind it. Any ghosting would result in major problems during decryption. Obviously people could get around that, but there is a strong possibility that they would make a mistake and lose everything. (By the way, how's your family doing these days?)
Facebook, like any corporation (apart from the SCO), is smart enough to know how to handle PR, so it's not going to have a public image problem. This is a site that built itself around the public loving what it does for them for free. Not adopting free standards is easy for them because they can simply point at Google and say they have anterior (lol) motives which Google clearly does. Google has only to gain, Facebook has only to lose in that situation... why would Facebook bow to pressure from another company like Google?
Google is uniting these other sites because they each have something to gain from that alliance... new segments.
Facebook has nothing to gain because people from each of those segments are already on Facebook.
Facebook only has something to lose by joining that alliance... control over how their medium is dished up and the browser interstitials and advertisement revenue. My dollar is on Facebook for the long haul, unless they are shut down due to code theft (which is actually still in limbo right now, if I understand correctly).
When a domain is snatched, usually it doesn't matter if the original owner gets it back or not. That's not the point, in most cases. Thieves will use the domain to drive traffic to their astroturfing/spam network and drive their PR up in the process. That stays in memory indefinitely and has a beneficial impact on any site like that.
If the owner gets their network back, they still have the stigma of the bad activity associated with the domain.
Preventing domain theft is going to only get increasingly more difficult as technology becomes more complicated.
Throw out all law, and stop being idiots. Instead, be Excellent to One Another, like Bill & Ted.

The only reason companies use patents is to create phony investment potential.
Microsoft has always had a heavy foot, but waiving fees for those who cut out the competition requires another solution.
Drop Microsoft! Just drop them. Stop using them. They are old anyway. Let's come up with something NEW!
Backfires inc!

You can get a Dell at this cool website called http://dell.com/
But you can't get any of the ones that shock you. For that, you'll need http://www.tigerdirect/ or http://www.ebay.com/
No guarantees at either of those places!
For laptops that don't shock you, try shopping at Best Buy, where only the PRICE will shock you.

And that's American security in a nutshell.

Just sell it to someone who will. Bidding starts at 1 million dollars! That's right... 1 meeeeeeeelion dollars!
Now I'll find that sweet looking woman I saw at the bar back in 1993. I know she's out there somewhere... I just HAVE TO CONCENTR- oh no.

Why let them off the hook so easily?
Good Bye Apple!

But the real comedy is the fact people want to try and fathom the mass of something incalculable. And these are scientific minds! LOL
The parallel would be if religious nuts tried to calculate the mass of God.

The USA has finally outlawed complaining! I'm moving down there now.
Yes, but when ICANN reverses the snatches, it will be too late and the damage will be done, so the domains will be useless to new owners, anyway.
There is entirely too much stress on domain names. There should be more stress on domain content.
When a domain is snatched, usually it doesn't matter if the original owner gets it back or not. That's not the point, in most cases. Thieves will use the domain to drive traffic to their astroturfing/spam network and drive their PR up in the process.

Idealism: Looks like humanity is getting an upgrade. I hope they replace us in the rat race so we can all just chill out and enjoy life.
Realism: We will become their slaves. (clicking SUBMIT now)
