or once they did cheat, just wouldn't know how to change their MAC.
Yeah, but the thing is, if someone is computer and net litterate enough to find trainers and cheats on the net to "enhance" their skills online, they know probably enough about underdroung culture to find something that changes your MAC address. Especially since the Warez sites and cheat sites who distribute these cheats and cracks are likely to distribute also these MAC address changers.
they unsed in the movie so we can render final scenes from the movie ourselves so we don't have to wait another 2 months to see the movie.... unless it makes more than two months to render the scenes themselves on my own computer...
... that some overzealous Microsoft basher is soon about to quote Bill Gates on the 640k limit, even tough it has been shown recently that he never uttered these words.
I think you're missing something.... the awesome protoss in 3D. If you are a Starcraft fan and prefer the Protoss, you can't expect me to believe that you didn't drool all over your keyboard.
Okay, so let's say someone has the Excitebike rom on his or her computer. The argument is that it's "legal" since Nintendo doesn't sell it anymore.
How many people told you that "Yeah, I'd buy the real game if it was still sold."? I can't wait to see all of them rush to Walmart to buy a GameBoy Advance and an e-Readers so you can play the game.
I'd bet everything I've got that they're still going to play that rom in their basement, and still not give a penny to Nintendo.
I don't agree with the part that says the Windows machines can't run a few months without attendance, since I once ran my WinXP professional box where I do development and play games for a month.
I had to reboot once because I wanted to install the new Detonators, but it was rock stable and it obviously didn't leak any memory or ressources since it would be slow after a month of use if it did.
Even tought you could say that I wouldn't have to reboot under Linux to make the change, keep in mind that you rarely need to upgrade the video on your server and most drivers can be installed under XP without a reboot. (this bit added to avoid linux zealots)
I just did a bit of searching of Kazaa, and the book came out very quickly. It's named Order of the Phoenix and it's in the Microsoft Word format. I opened it with Notepad (I didn't want to be infected with a macro virus, if there was one in it) and looked the content. The first line of the document states that it's a fake that someone put on the web just to see how gullible people are and think that this is the real deal. The file contains a part of book four and nothing about book five.
I asked the same question at a bookstore yesterday and I was told that it was comming out in 2003. The book is donem, but J.K.Rowling wants all translations done before selling it. So the book could be done, but it's not out yet since the translations aren't finished.
The Harry Potter books are the best books that I read in the last few years. I've read many good fantastic books (including, LOTR, evidently) and what striked me with the Harry Potter books is that they are so much fun to read. The Harry Potter's universe is very magical with a lot of funny touches and mystical creatures. It's a world you'd like to be part of. I can't wait to read the fourth book which I bought yesterday since I heard it covers even more the magical world of Harry.
It took me a month to go throught the first book since I wasn't so much in it, but it took me a week to go through book 2 and 3. They are that good.
People shouldn't put anyway Harry Potter books because the first books are written toward a younger audience. They are for everyone, as Bilbo the Hobbit, a book Tolkien had written for his kids.
I agree totally. Val Kiler looked like a youngster while Goerge Cloney had a beer-belly. Keaton was perfect in the role. He was smooth, we was dark and he looked like Bruce Wayne.
A lot of people are saying that the file format is bound to be cracked, but I think that Microsoft did a pretty good job on this one. Media files with a time bomb has been here for a few years in Windows Media Player. I remember downloading the Mission Impossible 2 theme from the official site which was in windows media and it had a 30-day life, after that, it wouldn't play. I've never found (thought I've never really searched also) or never heard since then of a software that rips the content and converts it to an insecure format. Same thing with videos. Microsoft has done a good job of making this thing secure it seems. Sure, it still doesn't defeat an analog solution, but then, what does?
you should be pissed that epic doesn't trust the game enough to release it to Linux. It's not a question of trusting the game, it's a question of trusting Linux users. Most Linux users want their stuff stable, but also, FREE, so it's more likely they won't buy a game.
Same thing happened with Jason X, it came out a few months on Kazaa before it came out in the theater. The qualiy wasn't very good, since it was filmed in a theather, but I went back to see it at the movie theater when it came out, and it was the same cut as was released on the net a few months before. So maybe, juste maybe, TTT is already done and what could be floating around on the Net is "The Real Deal".
Do you have an article to back that up, because Sony is now selling a portable MP3 CD Player so if they're so much anti mp3 why are they selling a player?
During the last two summers I worked in a company that makes software for TV companies. One guy there believed, and I agree with him, that the future of television advertisement is in-show advertising, tought it would be more subtle than having Buffy drink a Montain Dew and saying "After a slay, there's nothing like a good Montain Dew, right Xander?"
Basically, television sets would have access to the internet and producers would define hot zones in the video where the viewers can click to get info on some item on the screen. You like that top Buffy is wearing and would like to see your girlfriend in it? Then just click on it and you will be redirected to the website of the company who makes and sells it. You can then buy it. I can't tell what would happen if you actually clicked on Sarah Michelle Gellar tought... Never have you been harassed to buy the product. Everybody is happy. You found something you wanted, and they've found a customer.
It could easily get out of hand (maybe Steven Speilberg had this type of advertising in mind when he made Minority Report and has made sure his movie would be friendly to the future technology), but it's definitely an interresting idea.
I just tried out Tenebrae Quake and the only thing I'm sure now is that I can kiss goodbye any chances of having DOOM III run on my computer. Looks like I'll have to go out and buy a new video card.
Tenebrae is nice tought. The shadows are nice, even tought they are blocky, but that's normal since the models are blocky too. There seems to be a problem though with the enemies : they look like someone applied a bit too much of car wax on them...
The BIOS doesn't have to be encrypted. Maybe there's no software involved in the encryption process and only hardware, so whatever you installed on the machine, it would not work. In fact, you probably won't be able to install anything, since the memory will almost immediately encrypt itself.

I knew it!!! :-)

Yeah, I wondered what sound does a Star Destroyer make. ;-)
Silly me, I didn't seee the link the first time around.
Wow, that's what I raelly needed.
4 people telling me exactly what to do.
I should have looked at the page more thouroughly went I looked at it first.
It's a shame the person who made it didn't post an mp3 of him playing on the hapsichord. I wonder what it sounds like...
I think you're missing something.... the awesome protoss in 3D. If you are a Starcraft fan and prefer the Protoss, you can't expect me to believe that you didn't drool all over your keyboard.
Check this out.
I only have one thing to say : Holy mother of god, I want this game!
Damn, you were faster than me to say it!
Interresting idea... I wonder what other people think about this.
