Tonight is 'Episode II: Attack of The Trolls' or somthing???
The guy with the large post did an impressive work anyway... I wish this post were used to show + explain the bug! And why not a patch in the same large post! That would beat bugtrak and their exploits code!!
For instance, if I send an email with my beta 133t mailer program to a buggy server (let's say a Lotus server) that crashes upon receiving my mail, am I liable for the DoS that other users will perceive?
Too bad you didn't login, your post would have been more seen...
Anyway, that's true that taking extreme security measures seems ok in the US and not in China... strange behaviour... I wonder if I would have noticed this if I were american
MP3 is not EXACT digital copy! You agree to lose quality when you use MP3!!!
16 bits stereo PCM (often refered as WAV but that's inaccurate) is a digital copy! You can add "exact copy" if the ECC on the disk worked well.
Now, ripping from your stereo's CD may be a good idea if you can get the fiber output and plug it into your soundcard (many soundcards have fiber output, some must have fiber input too). If you copy from the jack output then you'll have a SNR of ~60-70dB (check the noise level with Soundforge!) whereas CD players give >90dB!! (Difference will be noticeable at high volume, maybe not that important for your car or for a portable player)
Ripping from FM radio is a very BAD idea: the sampling rate is limited to 19kHz (the carrier that separates the Right+Left and the Right-Left (that's 'plus' and 'minus') channels is located 19kHz above the tuning frequency IIRC) (You can add a crappy SNR on top of that)
1) That doesn't disprove anything. You can deny what he experienced.
2) Videolan is not the ultimate solution, I could not get it to work. I don't remember why but I tried 2 days to have a setup that streams a DVD to windows box. Nothing would work as expected, I read all the FAQ I could and did not succeed. Yes I am a fucking idiot
Everyone that does not use linux because it's too hard are fucking idiots because "no it's not true, linux is easy and in fact easier and more performant than windows". Facts are facts and experiences are experiences.
I am not a linux guru and while that explains why both of us (me and the poster) did not succeed with DVD on linux, it also explains why he's true when he says that DVD on linux isn't here yet. It's here for gurus but not for homo simplus like us.
From here: "The earliest ancestor of the modern automobile is probably the Fardier, a three-wheeled, steam-powered, 2.3-mph vehicle built in 1771 by Nicolas Joseph Cugnot for the French minister of war."
Well excuse me but parent comment read: So how much longer before our fiddling with lightbulb structures turns a simple light bulb into a photonic computer.
Starting with these hypotheses,...yeah whatever. I was just amused by this insane comment and wanted to make a clear translation.
It's the story of a guy that gets bitten by a spider, then gets superpowers, then pick up a chick because of these and save America/=The world.
Message to nerds/geeks: You just have to wait for superpowers to fall on you. There is no way else you can interest a girl. This movie praises you, do not change a thing. Just wait.
Message to girls: nerds are cool, try to speak to them. (This is a disguised message to nerds as it will make them have a good opinion on the movie too...)
Ok it sounds like a troll/flamebait but it's true that by buying something else than SUVs and 7.9l engine cars, you could spare a lot of energy and get rid of those stupid speed limitations! (Which are here precisely because cars' engines eat too much!)
Great news though, seeing how many light bulbs there could be on earth, the gain could be colossal!
BOYCOTT GOOGLE ADS! - They have refused ads for firearms! - see http://www.bowmansbrigade.com/google1.htm
--> Just imagine a storeowner who posts a sign on his door saying "No Firearms Allowed"... While I don't know if this is even legal, it is an infringement upon our rights
Or imagine something like a Airline company refusing people bearing arms!
While they do not ban weapons ads for security reasons (at least not directly, because well... they know you should stop playing with guns, you might get hurt), they are a company that has a policy and apply it. You do not like it? Go elsewhere. They do not have to obey to any crazy individual. They lose the customers they do not like. They can live without you, you can live without them. Nobody's gonna cry over this.

I don't want to wait seven hours to get it...
What's funny?
Who let the trolls out??

When you see the price tags, you understand why...
Sure I would prefer a Sun or IBM box, but my wallet is not ok.
And guess who decides! Me or my wallet?!
I was thinking of the same thing...

Same idea for TV, don't do it
What IS a "class-action lawsuit"??
Is this because the lawsuit talks about "copy constructor"??? (Nero is the best!)
128 MB of movies!!
wohoo!!
Interesting!
If you're the one that discovered this bug, you should have logged in!!
How can a first post be redundant?
Oh! you're Bill Gates?
I find his sig quite excellent!

You won't need it locally.

Weren't cars invented in the USA?
:)
From here: "The earliest ancestor of the modern automobile is probably the Fardier, a three-wheeled, steam-powered, 2.3-mph vehicle built in 1771 by Nicolas Joseph Cugnot for the French minister of war."
There was life on earth before USA were made.
But you don't get free cars.
Oh you don't? In France we do!
That just doesn't compute.
...yeah whatever.

Where was Spiderman when we needed him anyway...
Yes America, keep faith in super-heroes, they are all what you need...
Can you imagine a Beowulf Cluster of these????
Yeah... shoot me...
and YOU can go to hell.
OK, I already was on the Highway to it anyway...
Since when do americans care about wasted energy?

and I really liked this story:
http://www.wipout.net/essays/0904schmeiser.htm
It tells us why we are so wrong no to like big corporations, despite their efforts to make our life nicer
unless all high end users would set up a scheme to synchronise their activities
They do, it's called "Back From Work"
Yep! Fark it!
