That maybe true but how long will it say advanced? They got the source code too. All they have to do is examine it and they can find out a way to put in some copy protection that current versions can't handle.
Well they have taken down the top dvd decryption software. I'm happy for them. All they have done is cleared the space for some one else to take it's place.
Just chunk the shit into one those salvation army/goodwill boxes. That way you are doing a good deed, get to write it off on your taxes, and your garbage becomes someone elses problem.
I would suggest you make the run in the middle of the night.
The first explanation makes more sense and you would assume that an experienced star pilot would know what they are talking about. But I like the second one better for the same reason. "It fits in better with Solo's personality."
For this to be used at even at the hardware level there will still have to be some "code" or switch embedded in the media file itself to be activated. Once we find a way to strip out that code or flag, problem solved.
I've been hearing about this damn thing for 30 fucking years. If the fucker works, plug the god damn thing in and lets go to it.
Where are all these fucking energy things we've been hearing about for the last 3 decades? I know where fusion is, but where is wave power? What about the oil shade?
F) Call the FBI, pay the ransom, and follow the money trail. Then bust the guy for extortion, wire fraud, and whatever else they can think of. Then the bastard spends the next 15 years in the pen taking it up the ass from someone named bubba.
How about us lazy fuckers? I have a 400 dvd player because I'm to damn lazy to get my ass up off the couch, walk to the shelf, then walk to the dvd player. That twenty damn fucking feet i don't want to walk.
I just push a fucking button and off I go. I used to have an automatic popcorn popper too. I just slapped her in the back of the head, and said "bitch go pop the popcorn." I guess that why I don't have a girlfriend anymore.
Note: For the humor impaired I have never slapped a woman in the back of the head and said "bitch, go get the fuckiing popcorn." First of all I have to much respect for women to do that. Second, she would have simply shoved the popcorn, bowl and all, right up my own ass for my effort. While I do have a 400 dvd changer not because I'm lazy, well I am, but because it better for the dvd to keep them in there instead of handling ever time I want to watch one.
The mpaa needs to learn from Star Wars. Hey you fucking bastards, the more you tighten your god damn grubby fingers the more son of a bitches are going to be giving you the finger.
Was that close enough? Let me translate that for you. The more restrictive you make the DRM the more people will be looking to circumvent it. People put up with it now because it's not in convent enough. But once it get to intrusive the more people will be looking to get around it.
No, they won't be simply living with it or doing with out. They are getting smart enough to realize if they ask the right people they can find away around it.
I personally now know several ordinary people its the first thing they do when they buy a new dvd is copy it. They make a backup and strip out all that shit you piled on to the front of the dvd.
Where the fuck do you dumb asses come from? Where the hell did I deny anything about America's racism, both past and present. Yeah, we have a history of racism, so does the rest of the fucking world. I don't deny it, I embrace it, I admit it. It's apart of our history and our culture.
Fifty years ago a black man couldn't sit down and have lunch with me. Now I go to lunch with black workmates, Indian workmate, and all kinds of other. I can do that today.
Oh yeah, American does not have a long history of racism. It has a long history of racism and doing something about it. Unlike other countries that have longer history of racism and doing jack shit about it.
For instance, Israel and the Palatines, Japan and the Korean nationals that live there. Australia has some history of racism but is trying to do something about it. The Germans and the French are known racists and don't care that anyone knows it. India has class racism.
Then there is the problem in Africa. During the time up to 1980 it was Whites against the Blacks. Now its Blacks discriminating against the Whites. Please feel free to do a search on Black on White crimes in Africa. Make sure you look at land grabs, farming, and murder rates.
Yeah, America does have a history of racism but at least we do something about it that matters. We fought a civil war over the subject states rights and racial matters. The civil rights acts of the 1950's. Feel free to name one country that has had such acts and done more for race relations.
No, that is not true. Most murders comitted with firearms where committed by people with illegal firearms. They are not the firearms proper owner. Most legal owners of firearms own these weapons for perfectly legal means and use them only for perfectly legal means.
I do not approve this bill so I cannot allow it to pass. There are no provisions for ass beating with a cain pole in here. So until I see these changes I cannot approve it.
I hated the very ideal of the Harry Potter books since the came out, until I read one. Four of the books where out when I read the first one. From there I was hooked. I read all four in a matter of days then the 5th one came out a couple weeks later. I innhaled it in a two days. Then I picked up the first one and read them all again.
I'm hard core SF and Fantisy. Stuff that makes most peoples head hurt. JK Rowlings is an icredible writer. If she can write a book that kids will read and I can't put down that says something.
By the way I seem to be the only one who hopes Voldy wins in the end....
I'll stick with Netflix too. It's a 4 day turn around time for my house to Netflix for me. The maybe higher than Blockbuster but they have a better selection and better service. Try finding all 6 dvd's of some rare anime at cockbusters.
That, and they just seem like a cool company to me.
More importantly, why is this even on slashdot? This is not news I or anyone else on here should care about in this forum?. I shoudl be reading this on yahoo or cnn, not slashbuzzard.
If you have a harddrive that has data on it that needs to be scrubbed at this level, you don't RMA the drive afterwards. You distroy it. I would recommnd the hammer approach, a 16 pounder would be nice. But you could always do what I've done before. Take them out to the target range. Trust me, nothing is more satisfying than putting a slug in to a piece of computer hardware.
Awww, somebody needs a hug. Quick, somebody hug him.
You must have not been around here when NASA fucked up that standard to metric shit. We laughted then. Remember when China launched their first astro dude? Remember the spam in the can jokes?
Nobody died. Yes it is funny, pull the stick out of your ass and laugh with us.
They proved that with the beagle 2 they are pretty good at digging in on Mars too.
Re:Voom went down because they had no customers

Voom No More

· Score: 2
Voom also died because nobody gives a rats ass about HD except us that have HD setups. For 90% of the people regular TV is just fine. And if you sit back and look at a directv picture on a regular, but good, it is pretty damn good. HD just doesn't offer that much more of a better picture.
Voom just didn't have enough to offer over HD. They needed more than just that. Directv will be able to survive and offer HD services because they will have that huge ass base of regular subscribers to fall back on. Where Vroom was a one trick pony, and it was a trick that only a few cared about.
I, presonally, am looking forward to directv HD line up but I'm in that 10%.

Please, shut the fuck up and do something.
How about we remove from the gene pool anyone who runs a blog, writes into a blog, or even uses the term blog?

Nope, it doesn't. I has 3 big ass crt guns and it does do 1080i.
This is the reason I bought a 52" rear screen projection than LCD/Plasma and whatever. That, and it was 3000 bucks cheaper and had a better picture.
I'll stick with Netflix too. It's a 4 day turn around time for my house to Netflix for me. The maybe higher than Blockbuster but they have a better selection and better service. Try finding all 6 dvd's of some rare anime at cockbusters.
