Not true - I dont really hate mpaa - I buy all my movies etc (those I like that is). You dont see mpaa in all the headlines so I think people are badmouthingen them unjust, they might not only support the stuff we like, but c'mon some of it is pretty darn good.
However, RIAA is music, I have bought 2 cds in the last 7 years - I do alot of so called pirateing and I dont give a rats ass. As long as they charge me 20 bucks a cd for one number I like and dont got it on a medium I want to use I aint buying.
I once did the thing with downloading and buying if I liked it, but RIAA and the like are just too damn greedy - so ill punish them my way...
Ohh yeah and I'm not afraid of them, nice liveing != USA - we got a body like them, but they arent as agressive and our laws gives us alot more room....
Why go through all this trouble, just use session data and keep track of how many requests in a minute - if they pass some threshold just give them a plain text file that says you exeeded the qoute for one minute - please stop requesting so much (make better sentence).
They still get to request pages and get something like a few kb worth of data - but it stops them from hoggin the real data...
Not quite same application, but I know alot of major firms uses 2 bogus email addies to block virus from internal messagesystems (an address starteing with 0 and one with a couple of zz to make sure they are in each end) - Maybe its possible to do the same thing for spam?
have you ever stopped and noticed how the US seems to have done everything to others, but when it turns around and bite them in their whiny ass they get all upset?
You lost 3000 in those towers... that is less than 1 percent of terrorist kills the US is responsible for. Not to mention how US managed to support the fall of democracy in argentina...
In your mind its ok as long as the us does it, but when it goes the other way you get all sobby.
Well first off my friend got a 1.4 TB ide raid in his closet so 2 TB shoulndt be all that hard getting.
However I don't think he actually had those mp3's but he just hosted the server where other hooked up, thus this might only be 3-4000 songs copied a heck of alot of times...
as far as I remember most dynamic ram happens to refresh a heck of a lot (something bout how long time those litlle black thingies remember the stuff, so they need more juice (and time) to refresh themselfs)
Also you have to take in account the amount of crap that most wysiwyg software happens to dump a shitload of nothing into documents (thx billy) so they take up waaay more that they should.
no papyrus is the best thingy for storage, and a good librarian is best way of retrieving this:) I once heard / dreamt / imagined that early cd's would decay after about 2 years, newer cd's does live longer, but arent a good bet. Magnetic stuff ie. hdd, tapes etc. fades afaik over years, so the best long term storage imo would be the egyptian style, the after all lasted 2000 years or so
Hey retard go to your hillbillie friends and discuss it with them.!
Iraq != nazis
War in Iraq is not about your freaking terrorists, if US hadn't fucked every thing up in the firstplace there wouldn't be any problems. The real reason why Bush is so trigger happy is war => production => jobs => _votes_. He has to pay up those companies who got him elected.
The only threat Iraq is to anyone is any contry that resides within 150 km or so from their border (the range afaik on their Al-whatthefuckwasthatnameagain?) - the vx carrying rockets.
Now what really should be a concern to US if were talking threat is the North Korea - They actually got ICBM's and are about to fit them up with nukes. Thats fucking scary.
Speaking of defending the world - Finnish stood ground against russia longer than anyone else afaik in WWII when you compare forces, looking from DK they happen to be the buffer if the red army ever get hold of some rust remover.
Ohh maybe you should look up history some time, US didn't exactly go into WWII to "defend freedom" they wen't into the war because they got their ass' kicked at pearl harbor.
The only real threat in the world to day is that the average person controlling nukes has an IQ of less than 70 and a trigger happy factor of 100.
*Secret handshake* Heh, I was a contractor too for that lousy firm, but here in DK the story about that was that ye big old fat guy in US had heard that nobody was using their phones so he decided that motorola would trade in _for free_ your current phone with one of motorola's really shitty old ones (I'm not kidding). An interesting detail is that this was only for the first 100 people to sign up. Wonder if they ever got one... Ohh a funny thing back then - had a nokia phone, _always_ put it on my desk - plainly visible to my department boss, he said to me a couple of times that they didn't aprove of me using a nokia while working for motorola, but I just said, get me a phone with same specs and size and I'll trade it. He never came up with one.
As to mangement and a clue - it aint gonna happen. (I wasn't with mobile phones, but with those who makes shiny routers for mobile radios)
well the first thing you can forget about - they never went there, hell will be frozen solid before I believe that that string attach thingy was more than 2 m. from earth... (how that mirror that reflects laserbeams to measure the distance to the moon got there?) That doesnt exist either!!! Heck this thread is a figure of you imagination - now quit being a nerd and think of some really hot blond chick!!!
2. Send cowboy neil instead, last I heard he had some funky moves to deal with that.
turn the other way round down there? I mean I dont know much about the left right things, but since the water turns the other way around and just thinking about the average aussie I wouldn't count this as something special, everything down there is the other way around wouldnt supprise me if they had some extra aminoacids to go around:) (yeah yeah I know were based on 21 or so here on earth and that could mean all sorts of different stuff - but who cares I just got my result from winterexams and they were good:))

Uhm.. you guys are waaaaaaaay off here. You're all taking a look at it in a political / our medical db is important nuf to be nuked...
There are 2 kinds of people (doing that stuff)
1. The true hackers/phreakers/whatever they are called - They write programs to show off and put light on a big issue.
2. Script kiddies - They are the ones who just copies off what those from the 1. group did and are those who once in a while knocks big systems down.
The reason why game servers doesnt get knocked down so often (once in a while someone drops off a few) is its usually script kiddies doing havoc - And when they are bored doing drag n drooling in that shiney i-face those from the first group made they'll go back to gaming. At least they'd figured out that knocking over something they are going to use isn't all that smart...
By the way - Shouldnt people be looking into why the slammer was realeased in stead of just saying "Yeah Im an ultra cool sysadmin I figured out ALLL LLL by me self to close that port". It had no payload, no real use - and in fact 2 bugs afaik. How many of you out there has started an investigation to how the fuck that little sucker got on your network in the first place? Any of you actually went over your "trusted" sites and thought of fixing holes? I think the slammer was an experiment that accidentically got released before it was done.
You are limited by the assigned rate from the server (and your self) which means you most likely are getting it down at around 4-5 kb/s (thats bytes) (in cs anyways, dont know how the lesser games handles stuff).. HTTP transfers however are running on std. stuff so youll get as much bandwith theres left on the line (or whatever some geek might be shaping you down to).
What a load of bullshit! How can you compare the ATI flagship with nVidia's "not-so-high-end" card? shouldnt you be comparing it with TI-4600? Which as I write this is still costing more than 9700 pro... Shouldnt you compare 9500 pro with ti-4200? (9500 tags in about 100$ cheaper than ti-4200 here)
I think youre right, back when 3dfx died, we had the.com boom - Now people are getting a bit more realistic about things. Maybe nvidia does have some money in the store etc. but theyere imho doomed as 3d card maker for some years to come. They have given over the crown to ATI, if they dont ship out something usefull (cars @ 77db isnt qualified for that) within the next 3-4 months people are going to associate ati with high end boards. nVidia is going to survive, however I think theyll end up like matrox having their own nitche and dust up on the shelfs.
Btw. If this is true, I do think it was the right move, better to do some damage control than ship the crappiest card ever... (voodoo 6000 never made the shelves afaik)
You got to be fucking kidding..
"What was the main reason for the mass murder of dozens of people in columbine? Doom. It's always the same story..."
I've been playing violent games since my early youth, first pirate games/police (what the hell was that called?), then pac man and when wolfenstein came that was the thing - scared the living crap out of me and my friends (age 7-8 I think) but was funny as hell also. Since I've moved on to almost every good shoot-em-up game there is - and guess what - I havent gone balistic in some school nor killed off a few fellow citizens. This is not the games at fault, it is society at fault. You can judge your society by the guys in prison. Here in Denmark every murder hits the front page on national newspapers (doesnt happen that much around here). And instead of blaming every one else for your misery try looking in the mirror... By the way, didn't US just have a guy commiting suicide on live webcam? now that is one fucked up country.. and we let them have nuke's...
so you say that what you paid for in the store is what again? if you dont own it what the hell are you paying for then? Those EULA bullshit wont hold up in court - at least not here in DK. You cannot read the EULA before buying the software (notice its called buying?) and the stores does not _have_ to take the thing back after you paid, and since you have to open the plastic wrapping and use the cd before reading the eula they most likely wont have it back. So, cut the crap, eula is just for show...
as mentioned earlier, how the hell can they claim you have accepted this without proving that you have the software? If they knew what software you got they could just look you up at the vendor...
I dont know much about law n all (in amercia), but isn't it their responsibility to prove that you _dont_ own the software - not the other way around? I mean, smoking gun n all that doesnt that apply?
Also, here in Denmark the company that sold you anything is legally required to save a copy of the transaction for something like 3-5 years, so in any case you should at least be able to prove that you actually bought the software from a vendor through bills or whatever...

Hmmm...
You are the kind of person who buys the shittiest hw in the store and complains it doesnt perform well right?
My disks last way longer than years, last time I bought disks was in my amiga time before '95... most of those disks still runs...
Doensn't cd's tend to blow when they hit 50x (liniear I think) or was it 40? Well ask uncle google, he knows.
we had one of those... never worked that good though...
