But wait, if its what "Bruce Schneier" wants why not just go to live in China instead of changing the laws here?
I agree with you, but the problem is that they already benefit from the work of people like you and they seams to not respect the GPL. Is it possible to revoke their use of Linux because they don't respect the GPL and ask them to destroy all their previous distribution of SCO Linux. (Then the next step is to sue them for 1 000 000 000$ and give this amount to different organizations of the open source movement.;) )
Under the recently passed Patriot Act distruction of a computer system is considered an act of terrorism. Does the senators recent comments mean he is now supporting act of terrorism?
Damn, this is what the title of the post should have be :
Oh look, yet another drone who is unable to build is how opinion and who accuse everybody of being anti-American just because they don't say "sir, at your service sir, right away sir" when the government say something.

I think that knowing your enemy is a good first step. I have a degree in programming but I am almost a zero in security. I am very bored the to continuously see script kiddies and others scanning my ports and other stuff at home. So I decided to take the matter in my hands and my first step will be to know my enemy. I am trying to find what are those people doing to my computer. I found a book named Hacking Exposed and I think its a good start. They show you everything from the hacker/scrip kiddy point of view and propose some solution. I think that for enhancing security on my personal computer at home this is a good start. I am also reading a Sam teach yourself networking at the same time to patched some holes on my knowledge fo networking.
"Direct marketers have been compiling this sort of information for years. From it they know that I'd like to increase various body parts, want a mortgage, need septic tank service, enjoy RC cars, and would like to meet other people and animals. Works flawlessly!"
Wow no shit!
According to them it look like we have exactly the same interests!
Many good ideas here but I think we all act with suggestions like if the world is going to end tomorrow and this is the last chance you have to preserve your video collection. Let's see some facts.
*You want to be able to see your video in 20 years.
*You want a cheap, painless and effective strategy.
*The technology wont be the same in 20 years.
What I recommend is to put it on a digital media that will allow to preserve good quality and that is easy to access. DIVX on DVD or Hard disk are good choices. I don't recommend CD's because in my opinion to many CD's is a pain in the ass and in a couple of years you will deeply regret that choice. (Like it was for me when I did a clean up in my hundreds of 1.4 Floppy Disks of data.)
Then in the next 5 to 10 years you will see if DIVX or DVD technology will be in the way to be extinct. At that moment you will be able to easily decide how to transfer your videos to a new format and then maybe you will have better solutions that will last for very long or maybe you will simply transfer your data on another media for another 10 years. The most important is to keep a good quality (DIVX 200 meg/hour will be OK and take around 150 gig) and keep it on a media where it will be easy to access when you want to watch your stuff and will be easy to do the transfer when YOU WILL NEED to do the transfer.
We were in Afghanistan and indirectly with our patrol and defense ships even if we did not officially supported US on the Iraq war we helped much more than any other country (except for Britain). But whatever....An occasional "thank you" instead of the usual stab in the back would be appreciated once in a while...
We were in Afghanistan and indirectly with our patrol and defense ships even if we did not officially supported US on the Iraq war we helped much more than any other country (except for Britain). But whatever. Reading this distorted vision make me just happier to live in Canada and please just change your Commander in chief as soon as possible he is an insult to all the great accomplishment of your great nation. (Yes, Canadians can recognize that other nations can also be great.)...An occasional "thank you" instead of the usual stab in the back would be appreciated once in a while...
An occasional act of courtesy and respect for other nations will be needed first and on many occasion it's us who are still waiting for the thanks. Like when we received all those planes on September 11 because you diverted them all to Canada and that hundreds off US citizens were living for a couple of days in Canadians family's who just decided to take them as guests. At the same time many Canadians where guiving blood and collecting founds for you. I remember that your Commander in chief did not even mentioned Canada in is thanks speech a couple of days latter but did mentioned numerous insignificant country's.
The separatist movement is so growing that they just lost the last elections with one of their worst scores in their history. And the Prime minister of Canada is so inept that he was reelected three times and no other political party stand a chance against is party since the last 10 years and minimum for the next 5 years. Yeah I see your point.
Normally to one who have less civil liberties are the ones who retaliate, so please can you reinstate some right to the US citizens before they decide to attack Canada.;)
Completely wrong. Canada used to have nuclear weapons but realised that the nuclear arm race was an insane business. In 1978, Canada Prime Minister Trudeau stated, at the U.N., that Canada was the "the first nuclear armed country to have chosen to divest itself of nuclear weapons. USA never asked Canada to stop. In fact USA was very pissed off because Canada did not continue to build more weapons with them.
Well I run IE on Windows 2000 and because I was planning to send it as a reply to spammers, yesterday I tried it on myself to be sure it worked. It work great!;) What is happening when you reopen outlook is that outlook position itself on the last opened email. The trick is just to click else were as fast as you can (you have almost one second) when you reopen outlook. Then you have many ways to delete the message without displaying it. Like turning of the html rendering etc... You can even click again on the message and as fast as you can press your delete key just before the message its displayed in html. It worked for me.
I just found what to auto answer to all my spam...

"This HTML also crash Outlook"
Sweet, I just found what to auto answer to all my spam.
Of course with a subject line that says:
I am very interested to buy your products.
I agree with you. It is true that the MP3 revolution have hurt some poor millionaire that now need to cut on their budget for drugs, big cars and prostitutes. Nevertheless, many engineers and technicians have a job now has hardware developer in the new mp3 and digital multimedia industrie. Downloading mp3's is illegal only because there is a law that say it so. Just change the law and the problem is solved; there will be no more stealing and the money will go to a group of more deserving people. I play music myself and I have some stuff that people download. But I do it for the love of the music and when people download my songs for free I feel honored and appreciated.
It is true that spaming is getting each time less efficient to sell stuff but the problem is that the spammers proportionally compensate by increasing the volume of spam they send. Take a look a this article. They don't care to harass 1 million people for each 10 sales they accomplish. I think I threw up twice when I saw this story about "Spamming for a living".
...Ignoring all the anti-american bullshit in your message...
OK...!!?? I think there is a misunderstood here and your attack really pissed me off..
This wasn't anti-american but simply stating the fact that the American army is the most technological advance fighting force in human history. Take a look at The Objective Individual Combat Weapon (OICW) for yourself and tell me that this is not the weapon of "The Predator" (from the 1987 movie of the same name).;)
If you think that I was referring to the fact that the Predator in the movie is a cold blooded barbarian assassin then I want state that even if I think that the real marines are technologically closer to the alien in the movie Predator, Sadam and is troops are the cold blooded barbarian assassins.
For the parallel with OGC in counter-strike just look the results of the battle of Najaf. Iraqis dead 1000, Alliance troops dead 0. I think it is obvious that the Iraqis are doomed and can't win. Like if you play a game in counter-strike against a team that use OGC it is obvious that you are doomed and can't win.
I play Counter-strike since the first beta version and I play computer games since the dawn of PC gaming. The first game who hocked me for hours was ZORK on a "intel 8086". Since then,for me, gaming is a hobby. Long time ago I was kind of surprise when my 10 years nephew totally kicked my but.
So I ask him how do he do and he told me "go to download some kind of cheat here" its fun..... I knew since the beginning that there was some cheaters but they where the exception. This is really not the cases anymore. When a little newby who don't know nothing about gaming or even computers can easily download all kind of cheat after a couple of days I think there is a problem.
So I downloaded OGC to see what were the cheats and I understood something. It is not only the good players who cheat, there is also a bunch of lame losers who cheat and suck ass. When I was playing a almost everybody where following me looking thought walls. I realised that when you have all the cheats the game look more like Predator against the Iraki army; Aim bot, anti-flash, speed cheat, lambert, no walls , no recoil etc.... (By the way some specials units of the American army are not so fare from the Predator;) ).
Now I am completely disgust. I have uninstalled counter-Strike.
Underaprecieate doesn't mean masterpiece but that for some reason the movie was underrated. Those are the good and bad points of this movie in my opinion.

The premise of this movie was excellent; Aliens invade earth and enslave humanity then we have to kick them out. What really suck in this movie is that you never care about the main character (not Travolta, the human). When the story start to be some kind of interesting you start to discover gigantic holes in the plot and this is where shit hit the fan. At the end I was disappointed because if they changed a couple of things, it could have be enjoyable.
I think people enjoyed to trash it because of the relation with the scientologists Wako Cult. Nonetheless if you look the rank of this movie in IMDB worst movies of all time list
I think that people enjoyed to trash it to much. Come on people!!! It is rated 15th worst movie ever! One fun thing is that Travolta have a movie on the top 20 and worst 20 (Pulpfiction).;)

Damn, this is what the title of the post should have be :

Your question clutters up the thread and doesn't really add anything to the discussion at all,
Sorry but yes it had something because I was looking for the meaning of FUD. What is it not adding nothing is this nonsence discussion right now.
