    Erm, actually, I did this to someone once.

    My friend stole a purse, and had an ATM card, I called the lady pretending to be bank of america, saying her card was stolen..
    "OhMyGod my purse was stolen"

    10 minutes later we had her pin

    $2.57 was in the account

    I think we are witness to the first salvo being fired between these two bohemoth companies.

    This might be the straw that breaks the camels back...

    It's an 'internet only' service, but you have to access your email through a www interface...

    Sounds how much that PR guy knows about it.. pretty much the problem in general

  8. Stop whining on Contagious Media Showdown · · Score: 1, Insightful

    To all the people whining about it being on slashdot, the link is to a site with ALL of the afoe mentioned sites..

    Although, this 'contest' isn't really a contest... It would have been better to do it in a controlled manner, let the sites spread by word of mouth et cetera.

  9. Definitely a good idea. on MythTV Links Up with Program Guide Provider · · Score: 5, Insightful

    All MythTV really needed was a well-funded and backed listing system. Zap2it was a good mid-point, but not on par with Tivo's or Microsoft's offerings.

    Old (but very decent) PC hardware is getting cheaper and cheaper... (save for older ram.. but ddr is getting old too) So, for the enthusiast, MythTV just became a lot better..

    If the price is right, this could definitely work out.

    It's preinstalled on a good percentage of home user's operation system.

    If Firefox can keep its usability/functionality/security edge over IE, I think that the numbers could keep falling.

    The way firefox spreads (world of mouth, mainly) can only become more powerful the more people use it.... if it can maintain its edge.

    Lots of rumor of DNS getting poison and/or google site getting hacked. The reason benig is people thought google.com was going to SoGoSearch.com..

  17. I'm sorry, Google on Google Web Accelerator · · Score: 1

    Dear Google,

    I've always loved you, sometimes a bit too much. When all the others told me you were bad, I didn't listen. I followed you blindly. Google, everything you have done until now has been the upmost joy of my life.

    This "Web Accelerator" is a abomination! It's akin to Paul Atreidies forgoing his addiction to the spice melange.

    A "Web Accelerator" designed for broadband connections, what kind of crack are your PhDs smoking? Maps, Suggest, Gmail, Web Accelerator (ACCELERATED FOR BROADBAND)

    Wtf AOL?!?

    Because, if you think piracy is bad here in the US...

    In Asia it's all but legal. The problem is so big that mitigating it will take a lot more than a few boyscouts earning merit badges in Intellectual Property.

    Funny story about IPreplays-

    A few years ago in IRC we used to do some pretty sick prank calls using IPreplays, along with generally having fun at the relay operators expense.

  24. Debian is dying. on Branden Robinson Lays Down the Law at Debian · · Score: -1, Troll

    It is official; Netcraft confirms: Debian is dying

    One more crippling bombshell hit the already beleaguered Debian community when IDC confirmed that Debian market share has dropped yet again, now down to less than a fraction of 1 percent of all servers. Coming on the heels of a recent Netcraft survey which plainly states that Debian has lost more market share, this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along. Debian is collapsing in complete disarray, as fittingly exemplified by failing dead last [samag.com] in the recent Sys Admin comprehensive networking test.

    You don't need to be a Kreskin [amdest.com] to predict Debian's future. The hand writing is on the wall: Debian faces a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for Debian because Debian is dying. Things are looking very bad for Debian. As many of us are already aware, Debian continues to lose market share. Red ink flows like a river of blood.

    Debian is the most endangered of them all, having lost 93% of its core developers. The sudden and unpleasant departures of long time Debian developer Manoj Srivastava only serve to underscore the point more clearly. There can no longer be any doubt: Debian is dying.

    All major surveys show that Debian has steadily declined in market share. Debian is very sick and its long term survival prospects are very dim. If Debian is to survive at all it will be among OS dilettante dabblers. Debian continues to decay. Nothing short of a miracle could save it at this point in time. For all practical purposes, Debian is dead.

    Fact: Debian is dying
