A: I wouldn't put it past the RIAA, they may be at their last straw...
B: But then again, if it is, that might be the end of them when they're figured out
C: So, I doubt the RIAA would be that stupid. If they did that it would just make them look even more bad than they look now, and they would have a hell of a big lawsuit on their tail, so I doubt it is them.
So what is it? In any scenario, I think the RIAA will get some grief for this.
It all goes to the end. Underground P2P using any amount of different P2P engines, each one very small yet set to a point where they are all interconnected so they can't find them. A vast web of P2P, methinks, will happen, with small programs that keep on changing to appear benign. Or something cool like that.
Still, I thought it would the the US that would come out with the P2P KGB first, really.
What is the craze with first posts and stuff? *sigh*
Hmm... So, what do animals of each species have to pay half a million bucks to get their genome imprinted on a limited edition cd-r? Hmm, they should advertise that in the rainforest...
Yeah, I mean, if you're gonna do a porno, you might as well have the originality to make it your own... instead of ruining pikachu forever... Just gah....
Also, question on P2P: Is WinMX really P2P? I've been wondering that for a while...
Still, I would rather do my own story and realize that it's already been done than downright copy someone else's world. I mean, one of the fun things about writing a comic/story is coming up with your own world and characters. The fact that other people have incredibly similar plot lines simply means you and other hacks...err... writers think the same... which can either be an ego booster or an ego crusher, you decide.
Fanfics and such annoy me though... Seriously.... My Eng 256 (creative writing) class was 50% fanfic, mostly of anime, and most of it being utter crap. I swear, while I can understand that one *might* get more acceptance if he treads on the beaten path, I find that it's just a lo teasier to be creative and make my own plots and characters. That's half the fun of writing a comic/story, right?
When a Sony lawyer threatened a fan of the company's Aibo robotic dog, who had posted a hack online to teach the dog to dance to jazz, he or she no doubt never thought to ask exactly how making the Aibo dog more valuable to customers could possibly harm Sony.
I agree with that to an extent, with anime, I believe that they need to quit creating sequels and come up with more original things. Take Gundam, for an example: They have made endless gundam series, it's getting old. I like stuff that its original, like Serial experiement Lain (which I'm suprised hasn't gotten more attention here... I mean, a hacker girl who becomes a god online...) or some of Miziaki's work.
But then again, how many land before time movies have they made?
God, one innocent topic about dojinshi, and look how quickly it escalates to porno discussion... Damn... (Sadly, I think I contributed to it...) And also, look at all the people bragging about posting first... Wow...
Ever read megatokyo? It's an online manga/dojinshi that deals a lot with l33ty stuff. Very nice.
One of the nicest things about japanese H stuff is that it sometimes actually has a feasable plot, more than can be said about a lot of stuff from the states... That extends to the H-Dojinshis to the actual movies and stuff... And a lot of it is spin offs of series and stuff, kinda like a pervy fanfic.
Noo... I don't watch dirty animes... what gives you that idea...?
I'd still like to see an anime that gets it's characters from a dirty H-Dojinshi...

Ahh, the fusion of jock and geek: An excersize machine that plays videogames.

Hmm... Both lead characters are human... And the girl is ugly. Is it just me, or are *most* middle earth humans damned ugly?
Meh, my idea computer has no real chassis! Just a bunch of parts, and maybe at most a skeleton of a chassis right next to a very large fan...
Yeah, same deal here. Hey, I could go out of my home without worrying about what will happen while I'm gone!
I sure hope the battery is radiation proof...
"Hey Jason, we're flooded!"
Why? What the hell is going on?"
"Argh! Some slashdotter junkie posted it... Our server will be clogged for days! Weeks!"
Hmm... I wonder if they'll strike up a deal with the Nigerians to find out all our top general's e-mail addresses, and send them similar letters!
You can kill me, but I will only grow stronger...
There's always the gum... And then you can swallow it when you're done, and spare the effort of eating stuff!
Still, I think the best idea would be a Jolt IV line...
That's all we need now to have neverending LAN games...

Simply LMAO...
It's amazing what type of sick fanfics there are out there if you actually look. I try not to, but I find them. Pikachu... Nooo.....

H dojinshi is always very influential in making me come up with nice new ideas... For plot ideas, duh... And not dirty ones either.
Or maybe I'll pass.
Even worse, I wonder if you can get the blue screen of death... On a watch.
"Hey, you got the time?" "Yeah, one sec...aw man, I just got the blue screen of death!"
This thing is gonna be a godsend for truckers.
