Sure, but the title of the article says "anti-copying". As I said in my other response, it's nitpicking. Waste of time for me, really. But, while I'm at it again, seeing as I didn't RTFA, how am I supossed to trust that you're telling the truth, and the article actually says "piracy"? You already knew from my last post that I didn't RTFA, so you could just be preying upon my ignorance. You evil, evil person.
Honestly, I'm just in a mood today- read some of my other posts and you'll see. Bored mostly, I suppose. Too much slashdot on the weekend.
I don't understand... Why they always have to call it piracy.
I know, it's hard to RTFA. I didn't read it, and I don't plan to. But really, let's at least RTF-Headline:SVP : More Video Anti-Copying Technology.
Looks like a euphamism for piracy to me. Now, they could have used "piracy" there, but they didn't.
So. Let's try not to mod the parent "insightful" or anything for that matter. Actually, ignore this post too. Really just nitpicking. I'm an asshole for it.
Oh, and piracy sounds more adventurous. Arr harr harr, matey!

So what would stop me from buying one of these things, removeing the CF drive, and then playing the part of ignorant customer and taking it back to the store you got it from saying "hey, it doesn't work, give me a new one." Or "I don't want it now, give me my money back."
I probably should have prefaced my comment with::insert tongue firmly into cheak::
But, as long as we're going to try to remain on topic, let's debate a bit:
The fact that this may require additional on- or off-site support to implement does not neccesarily mean it will be bad for business. Perhaps it will cost x amount more than current solution to implement due to its unweildy, complex, and buggy nature, but maybe it will produce x^2 more productivity and profits, meaning it both creates more IT jobs for people like me, and makes workers more productive. In fact, the product I support and program for does exactly that-- It's a CRM system. It rhymes with FoldMine. It certainly has its issues and implementation problems, but is incredibly successful if getting its users to sell more.
As for the Atlas, well, that's a reference to Atlas Shrugged. I am Atlas, and I shrug off the burden of holding up the world. Try reading the book if you're bored, but wear your tin-foil hat, or some other sort of crap filter, or swallow it with something more than a grain of salt. You'll need to reading anything written by Ayn Rand
The end result will be the creation of numerous roles at the client's expense to "manage" and "coordinate" the software delivery
So....basically it will create more jobs in the IT sector. If software and implementation were uniformly perfect for all applications and systems, I know that I and many others would be out of a job. That being the case, I for one welcome our new subscribtion-based overlords.
42,949,672,960 megabytes / 60,000 movies = 715,827.883 megabytes per movie, or 699.050667 gigabytes per movie.

Ah, now I see, That makes perfect sense then that he did not run away. This just shows that even evil former dictators can be baffled trying to turn off clippy. It would also explain his reportedly girlish screams upon seeing the paper clip attached to the doctors' clip boards as they examined him. That and the doctors' ice cold hands as they told him to "turn your head and cough"
Feel free to make your own kit and sell it. Then add up 12.99 for the camera, lets say, reasonably, 10.00 in cables plus 10 for time spent to make a profit and you're more than halfway to a cheap digital off ebay or even a new one of about the same caliber. I won't be shorting Rits's stock any time soon, least not on account of this service.
Now, of course I'm included in this, but for this article and accompanying comments, I can see the wheels not turning too quickly.
How many people in society use disposable cameras? many hands raise How many of you know or care about taking a few hours to go to the lengths needed to get this hack done? few hands raised. To sum up for everyone crying doom for this business model:
Hacking value for fun: 8 out of 10 points.
Hacking value for...um.... actual value: 1 out of 10 points.
In short, RTFA if you think Joe and Jane six-pack will care about this. If you still think this matters to the business plan after readinging TFA, keep refreshing untill you slashdot it again and get the I'm stupid page.
That my application to Princeton some years back was declined, despite exceeding their statistical averages for students in most areas. But oh no, I'm not bitter, OH NO, NOT ME, BECAUSE LOOK AT ME NOW, PRINCETON, LOOK AT ME- oh, actually, don't look. Please.
Anyway, this just shows again that, especially in the world of tech, brand name inteligence, i.e., Ivy Leage TM and MIT etc. are not always reality bound.
Imagine, a largely free (or cheap) linux distro complete with Novel tools.::drool::
I wonder if this is just the beginning of corporate owned and backed linux distros. Perhaps all major companies will soon want to have their own official linux distro. Novel Gets SuSE, Microsoft Gets SCO(um), Apple has to be all Apple-ish and get a Unix distro, and to top it all off, THE linux company, Redhat, shoots self in foot, outsources healing of foot to opensource community...
Steve Balmer sits and angrily pages through old emails and memos looking for the origin of the tablet idea...
"Hmm, was it Bob... no, let's see, here's that email about overpricing the tablet OS, nothing really wrong there though.... perhaps it was Phil that came up with...AHA! Here it is, dated 1998, the exact wording is...'Let's make a hardware reference design that takes an ordinary laptop and remove the opening portion and just slaps a touch screen on instead'.
Excellent! now to find who wrote it and fire his as- oh. shit. Bill. Fuc*& Bastard sonofabitch!
Why is it that so many people believe they are experts in this matter along the lines of "SCO is wrong and here is my own slightly different version of why and you are wrong about why SCO is wrong because..."
Lets face it, even the lawyers in this group are not experts in this matter. Those who are? IBM and SCO. Work for IBM? Work for SCO::shudders:: come on down. Otherwise lets stop the legal and tech essays at IANAL or IANAEOTI (I am not an expert on this issue) and leave it at that. Because adding a "but" after that is like saying to the guy having a heart atack "No, I'm not a doctor, but I play one on TV"
So is it too much to ask that we all just keep our mouths shut on this, having exhauseted everything we know to say about it before the summer began? Can we all stop arm chair Quarterbacking or backseat driving this issue? Think of it this way- when your boss catches you slacking off a little, what's the best way to handle it- do some goof cover up and start trying to look busy, or play it off as though you're not doung anything wrong, maybe even tell him he has got to take a look at this email you got forwarded... You get the point. SCO is just a big bear. Don't feed it. It will go away.

Hi! Your post was about the look of a gaming machine- You must be new to these, I can tell. Let me show you around.
So what would stop me from buying one of these things, removeing the CF drive, and then playing the part of ignorant customer and taking it back to the store you got it from saying "hey, it doesn't work, give me a new one." Or "I don't want it now, give me my money back."
from the looks of it, the Microsoft "shared source" program seems to offer all of the same freedoms as the GPL.
And, I think my personal fave:
VB can go just as low level as C and the newest VB compiler generates code that's every bit as fast
woooo!, oh man, I can't stop laughing. please, someone make it stop!
