If you are so stupid and inept that you are unable to put together an Ikea table, you don't deserve to enjoy the benefits of said table. Instead, go outside and play in trafic to clear the gene pool of your twisted little chromz after depositing the contents of your bank account into an Open Source project fund.
The PC mag thing was SARCASIM big guy... Jesus Christ that was obvious, unless you are a subscriber.
People who think they are literate from reading John C Dvorak articles and Dell adds (like the poster I replied to) make me laugh.
You say, There already are plenty of these sites, and I say "show me the money." Not one link, eh? Plenty? Did you get that from a PC Mag article?
Oh, and about the checksums... look at a popular song, and see how many variations exist in file size at the same quality. Are you saying different files with different sizes won't have the same checksum? Maybe PC Magazine will have a little review on how Checksums work.
Everyone posting a real song should name it beggining with, "RIAA sucks, fair use is good, and Disney love$ politicin$". They would never want to spread such text, so every song name beggining with the text simply MUST be real.
You say, Somebody somewhere needs to maintain a website with these checksums on.
I say you're talking lame trash, unless you host it on YOUR site. YOU be the victim of **IA lawsuits. Unless you post a link to a site where you plan to host such a wonderfull page, shut the f**k up.
On a more technical issue, you you really think different rips of the same movie will have the same checksum? What if one rip is one second longer or shorter? Or the ripping prog compreses it in a slightlt different way? bang... different checksums.
You need to read a little more "PC Magazine" before you can start posting such dribble.
Listen... I'll all for more competition, etc, but MAX OS X is going to run like CRAP on your Dell Boxen, or whatever it is you have, because of NO QUALITY CONTROL of what parts are in you little box. Crappy video cards, horrific sound cards, hell, half of the stuff Creative Labs puts out is junk, and their drivers are worse. How is an OS supposed to work with all this? Answer: It doesn't (see Windoze and Linux compatability problems). If you want to spend hours inside playing with vi to get sound working, have fun! Use Linux. We don't need Mac OS X on Intel.
All we will have is problems, on the side of the vendors, who either make bad hardware, or bad drviers for their hardware.
Not for nuthin', but at a local school where I went with my GF to pickup her little sister, I saw a room full (20-25) of 5 year old kids using DELL LAPTOPS and MS WORD. It's a spooky sight to see a little penquin sized thing complaining because FILE-OPEN dialog box is sometimes a bit confusing. They were using portable mice because the little rodants fit more easily into their hands. Ever see a 5 year old girl browse the web? twilight zone spooky. And I though I was kewl at 13, using ZModem and tradin' warez on BBS's here in Long Island, New York. CRAZY!
Does anyone know of good software, open source?, than runs on Linux, Win, or Max OS X that lets someone with broadband and a camera video conference? So far I've tried Connectic (poor) and XP Messaging (even worse). Ideally, software that is on something OTHER than Windoze. THANKS!
This news is good, but only if it makes it to the small managerial brains that run banks and such. Sure, the networks are insecure, but we are not talking about leaking office pr0n into the wild, it's about your credit card, and mine, being exposed all over the place. I'm to lazy to get the link, but didn't just this kind of thing happen to BestBuy?
I was making fun in my own small, stupid way, at people who post without reading the linked article, or even finishing the Slashdot paragraph!
Hehe... her photo is like RIGHT at the top... although I was thinking "Is she cute?" before I clicked. Kinda sexy, rich smart geek-wannabe chick. If I were a tad older...:)
Good thing we have everything backed up on Divx and MP3, tucked away on multiple drives (read: P2P). Thanks SONY, but I could give a sh!t if you deprecate some crappy technology.
Try CounterStrike and RTCW at 4:00am with reheated sweet and sour chicken (and radioactive orange sauce) a nice blunt (puff puff) and two cans of Guiness Larger. Niiiiice.
Could you imagine Apple's advertisers doing THIS campain?
And my heart was going like beep beep beep beep beep. And then my bloop pressure dropped in half and I was like, bhmuuuggghhh? And then half my good heart was, like, gone. It's a shame too, cause it was a really nice heart. Bummer. Oh, and my name is Eric Cartman, and I'm a student. www.apple.com/Have_A_Heart/Switch/
Nothing? I expressed opinions about a topic involving race, something most people are afraid to talk about in this country unless they themselves are a minority or a purported "victim" of my supposed oppression.
And all you did was ask three questions. Not much going on in your empty head. You're lucky to be posting at +2, let along able to tie your own shoes. Yeah, a senceless flame, but I have enough karma to go round and you're just an asshole, so I really done care:)
It is the DATABASE that is wrong. The fact that the makeup of the demographic of the DB is metntioned is what irks me. I am so colorblind that the race makeup of the DB doesn't matter. The fact that it exists is wrong.
I'm not as elliquint as I'd like to be, and to lazy to shit Shift-F7 (thesauras) in Word sometimes, but the above states more clearly my thoughts on the matter.
And as for your comment "a place for reflection and thought" did I not post my thought? Or is it only a place for reflection and thought that YOU agree with?
>most of the 200 people included in the file have been minorities from poor, high-crime neighborhoods.
I bet if they targeted White CEO Execs, everyone would cheer in rejoice. I can't stand special interest groups, tree huggers and minority lovers. Because a bunch of minorities is in the database, it's all wrong. If it were 200 White CEO's I'd bet most people would feel different.

If the people get something better, they will Switch(TM) eventually. Long live Ogg.

Now I'm hoping it happens. Guess I should read more than the first paragraph of an article, eh? :)

Oh, and I can continue to ignore BetaMax and listen to my Ogg Muzac and Divx pr0n. (see earlier news)
Like Forest Gump said while sittin on the bench talking, "And I though, that's good! One less thing to worry about."
Does anyone have a picture of her? Corporate bio or something? I want to see if she's a cutie! A lady who's tech-savy and anti-DMCA? Foxy!

-Hope this means faster pr0n...
-The more pr0n the better!
-Imagine what this will do to pr0n?
-I love porn.
-You've got pr0n!
