You shouldn't let these fuckers bother you. Most of the people on here are morons anyway. I have to wonder if they have even heard of Ho Chi Mihn or Hitler or all of the other maniacs the US army has fought against.
A computer with 256 MB of ram would have 320 MB of hard drive space. This is a bit less impressive. If you want to try it I know a guy who still has a working 300 MB hard drive.
Yes, it is interesting. It is especially interesting since DRM wasn't an issue in the '80s. It isn't being forced on anyone now. If I want content I create to be usable in the future I will not implement it. It is as simple as that. If someone wants to implement it, that is there right. I don't think society will suffer if the Spiderman movie, or Longhorn are not preserved. It is the individuals choice to implement DRM. You cannot force that choice on them, nor has MS et al. I can currently create any type of content I want DRM-free, or with DRM implemented. That will not change in the future. I don't see how we are hurt by giving content creators more freedom to choose a distribution option that they feel is appropriate.
The First Amendment protects political speech. A program that bypasses copy-protection is not political speech. The First Amendment does not apply. It is funny that no one got up in arms over the McCain-Feingold CFR bill, a law that actually restricts political speech, but they think that the DMCA is the devil.
Why don't you try arguing in the realm of reality?

Home safes are only fire proof to a point. House fires can be hot enough to melt steel. I wouldn't want to take that chance with something that I could not replace. It sounds good for backups, but for data that you want to be extra careful with (code basically) a safe deposit box would be more appropriate. I have a professor who keeps CD-R backups of all of his code in a safe deposit box. I'm sure you could fit a couple magnetic tapes in there too if you want total backup.
If DRM could be implemented without restricting access to memory in my own computer I probably wouldn't mind it so much. The problem is that DRM cannot be implemented without this restriction. Any encrypted file will have to be decrypted, and that means that I can dump memory and get the unencrypted value. DRM will never work without taking away certain things about a computer that make it the extremely useful tool that it is.
What does he use to keep his hair so tidy? He can be shot at roughly 40 times, jump on a bike, and jump onto a train without messing up his hair the slightest bit.
If the biggest thing wrong in someone's world is a stupid marketing tie-in then they need to get a life, and stop complaining. If is good to know that Sim Online will come complete with Sim Crybabies.
Here's another links. I didn't feel like registering. I wonder if this technology could be applied to healthy individuals to allow higher than normal agility maybe for soldiers fighting in unstable enviroments where they may lose their footing.
That is a pretty strong word to use unless Paramount had a gun to your head. I think they didn't charge enough, because if you consider yourself "victimized" you would have probably payed even more (considering that you act as if you had no choice).
The article states that the isotopes that they use only emit beta radiation. Even if it got out of its casing it would not penetrate your skin. There is no reason to fear. People will of course fear. It is just like people getting up in arms about irradiated food. They didn't understand that exposing food to radiation does not make it radioactive. I don't think this situation would be any different.
Not only was the moon landing fake, but also the Space Race and Cold War. The US and Russia have been faking all space exploration. Sputnik I was the only real space launch. It was during this mission that Russia learned that the world sat upon the back of a turtle. The turtle in turn sat upon another. In fact Turtle(n) sat upon Turtle(n+1) into infinity. They shared this info with the US. It was then decided that the general public could not handle this information, and that is why the "Space Race" started to really heat up after Sputnik I. It was all a hoax so that no one would suspect the truth.
1. It is called SmartStep. That should have been a major clue. 2. Common sense would tell you that a desktop processor running at full speed would drain a battery far too quickly.
It seems strange that they can hide details related to security. Open source software has proven that a system can show every implementation detail without becoming insecure. I'm not saying that I support the actions against MS, but something smells funny. It would be sad if every version of Windows had giant security holes that would be revealed if the implementation details were made public.
If these standards are implemented will it mean that people on many different chat clients will be able to make false assertions about my sexual preferences no matter which client I am using? I can't wait.

Executables are not speech. They are 1s and 0s that dance around in silicon.

Wuss.

Who is this Kahle guy? I know for a fact that it is Mr. Peabody who is behind the way-back machine. I was with him when he visited Nobel.

With all the recursive acronyms out there a few redundant ones won't hurt. I propose that LCD will now stand for LCD Crystal Display.
If it had happened in England the subject could have been, "Buggy Bugging Backfires On British Bobbies."

It is always important to buy quality components. I for example bought a *shuffle shuffle* Abit... BH6. Dang. Excuse me I have to go check something.
