they could have fabricated similar testimony 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 year ago (you pick). oh wait, they did. meanwhile harddrives, laptops and usb drives keep wandering away with impunity & multi gigabytes of really sensitive data. god forbid you encrypt. much easier blame p2p on the house floor in front of the bright lights of the very media cartels who create this artificial drama.
in addition to the censorship nonsense your ministers are this very afternoon mulling over a 3 strikes law. serves you right for living in such a pretty spot.
ah cuban. i wish he'd stick to anything but opining. he's been on this rant for years and it's old. taking google for example for those addled about what exactly it is they're up to, consider them the next step in a progression that started in the early 20th century with radio broadcasters. much of the baffling junk google spends its shareholder's money on, like streetview ad-infinitum is programming. if you look at television networks and their obsession with reality tv, google has brilliantly evolved it to the nth degree: no wrangling drama queens for them. all they do is hire camera guys to drive around neighborhoods snapping pics and lo and behold millions tune in and see the commercials.
that's the model. it's venerable and it works.
google is no more or no less vulnerable than any other program distributor working such models, like cbs for instance, still in business after 80 years.
naturally they can founder - like cuban's hd network - or last for generations like nbc but that's execution. the model is sound.
physicists may have just figured this out but special effects guys have known about it for decades. 25 years ago in ghostbusters when the stay puft marshmallow man panic causes a fire hydrant to fail (in miniature), the fountain of "water" shooting out of it is actually diatomaceous earth. shot from above in high speed it looks amazingly real.
perfect color, contrast and detail. the look was rich, the colors fat. slow yes but the best 35mm film i ever shot. my slides from the seventies still look gorgeous. i will miss this film, the clack of the projector loading a new image and the smoke drifting through the light.
leaving any browser open all day long makes my weezy thinkpad x22 essentially freeze after some 16 hours, even if i'm barely using the box (it's durational more than usage based). however unlike what the author experienced chrome causes the least issues and opera the most for me, with firefox right behind opera.
it's a problem since opera is my favorite browser and the stripped down x22 my favorite laptop. luckily it only happens at the end of these long stretches. if i reboot after eight ours it's fine. simply using any browser no matter how intensively for just a few hours is not enough for any memory leakage to become apparent with my setup.
"pro-bono" contingency lawyers are the last ones who want to see all funds returned to so-called victims. taking those 100 million riaa bux and keeping 30% or more for themselves seems a lot more likely. nevertheless sticking it to the media giant man deserves a few hosannas, even if it's impossible to separate the greed from the other ambiguities motivating this latest escapade.
Talk is cheap and in the case of Mr. Bragg, especially so. While I share his latest stance it seems somewhat at odds with previous pronouncements from the musician who gave us the wonderful"A New England."
"The huge social networking sites that seek to use music as free content are as much to blame for the malaise currently affecting the industry as the music lover who downloads songs for free. Both the corporations and the kids, it seems, want the use of our music without having to pay for it.
The claim that sites such as MySpace and Bebo are doing us a favor by promoting our work is disingenuous. Radio stations also promote our work, but they pay us a royalty that recognizes our contribution to their business. Why should that not apply to the Internet, too?"
Letting music industry trade associations play the heavy while one allows oneself to write generously cool opinion pieces rings more than a little hollow, unless one is willing to ditch the record company and pull out of trade group memberships altogether.
And if Mr. Bragg has already done so kudos to him.
When they shut up and put up I'll take them seriously. Until then I'm afraid they're a good part of the problem.
the easy way: first off have your "pal" burn it to cd-rom - do not put it on your hd - then do a little wi-fi war driving. after finding a decent (commercial) hot spot, upload it to any of several hosting sites like rapidshare etc directly from the disc. then write the link on a bathroom wall. all done. if a takedown notice is ever filed against the host it won't matter, your opus will have already spread like the clap.
yes, you can tor and onion ad infinitum but in less time than it took to write this post you could have uploaded the bombshell, and gotten out of the house to boot.
for x-tra security use an old wi-fi card from an out of town church tag sale. park far away. wear shades, a bad wig and a porn star 'stache whilst perusing the tables. a large sock in the trousers wouldn't hurt either. think misdirection.

they might as well skip the show trial and go right to stake burning. they're moving in that direction anyway.
ok, so if your sales are tanking your competitors can analyse your encrypted offsite data to find out your sales are tanking. that about it?
up to you but i'll pass.
explosions can and have happened with oem batteries. this isn't a safety precaution, it's a profit solution.

you should see it in chrome. takes forever to load & looks like something from 1995.

that just makes the jury as bad as she [allegedly] was.
wouldn't want one of those going up you know where while snoozing at the beach. no siree.
it's pretty much how every label started.

i suppose when they actually have to wear yellow stars he'll have a point.

don't kid yourself. like in england, the artists were right there, hands extended.
