  1. Re:Lets take a moment to consider on Blizzard/Vivendi 2, bnetd 0 · · Score: 1

    That's a rather short list, you could go on for a very long time.
    btw, you forgot an other very big player: Samba

    wait.. that means I may not play it on my backend workstation? Only on a directly connected computer?

    What? and tread the dangerous waters of the DMCA? I think not.

  4. someone please correct me, please! on Uwe Boll Spills His Guts · · Score: 1

    Alone in the Dark was an adventure game with some action sequences. right?

    Then why did they make an action movie?

  5. and so it begins on Microsoft Stalling TCG Best Practices Document? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    the downfall of "trusted" computing. The group doesn't even trust eachother. How can we even trust a group like that.

  6. Re:movie revenue on King Kong vs. Movie Pirates · · Score: 1

    That's because they start using the term profit when the profit is at least the cost of the movie.

    profit' = profit - production_cost

    2nd rule: don't rip off quotes from movies or the MPAA will sue you?

  10. copyright bs on BitTorrent's Loss is eDonkey's Gain? · · Score: 1

    According to CacheLogic, 60% of the traffic on the internet by the end of 2004 was made up of peer-to-peer activity, though it does not have a breakdown of how much of this is copyrighted material.
    My guess, all of it, except of what is known to be public domain.
    Copyright isn't evil. OSS is copyrighted, just like all those "quality" movies from Hollywood.
    Why do they always confuse "copyright" with .. uhm .. something else.

  11. the experts: CacheLogic on BitTorrent's Loss is eDonkey's Gain? · · Score: 1

    let me guess, they have a new commercial tool that focusses on eDonkey rather than bittorrent?

    Well, could be worse. At least it's not a wall or something.

  16. Re:Why should you not be responsible? on Spyware Maker Indicted on Hacking Charges · · Score: 1

    A lot of tools can be used to do evil (even a butter knife or a ballpoint), that doesn't mean it's made for doing evil. Nmap can be used to do for evil things, I've seen it in The Matrix.

    (well actually, I didn't, but I've been told that they used nmap in that movie)

  17. Re:Excel sheet Zip file???? on The End of Signature-Based Antivirus Software? · · Score: 1

    Is it safe to open?
    I just updated my virus scanner and I want to see how effective it was according to the tests. But I'm not just going to open that zip just to found out that virus scanner apperently didn't do that well afterall.

  19. No ROTT or DN3D on Great Gaming Easter Eggs · · Score: 2, Informative

    Those two games where filled with easter eggs. And not only bad ones.
    One of the most common easter egg is playing the game on xmas, a shit load of games do something special then.

  20. talking about bittorrent on Largest US Anime Distributor Goes BitTorrent · · Score: 1

    Does anyone know a good bittorrent server? I'm looking for a daemon like program that automatically starts seeding torrents when it finds them in a directory including subdirectories.
    A daemon with the following features wouldn't hurt:

    * automaticly seed torrents when they are found in a given directory (also when torrents are added while the daemon is running)
    * built-in tracker
    * process friendly, e.g. report as seed but don't have an active thread\process for a single torrent until it's actually needed
    * an option to (temporarily) stop seeding where there are X number of seeds (e.g. only provide initial seeding)

  22. It's getting old on Quake 3: Arena Source GPL'ed · · Score: 1

    Everytime some news pops up about a certain 3D engine people come running at the post with their torches bitching about how engine X is better than engine Y and how company Z handles things better.

    So what that engine Y hasn't been released under the GPL, they don't have to if they don't want to, period, so stop bitching.

    The Quake3 engine is now available, so either start to play with it or stfu.
