Yea, but thats only what ppl care about now, what does it do, what does it look like. Everyone Loved XP because it didnt crash, and it looked different than 98 (ME was a flaw). They never knew the power of NT till now (if at all). It just looks cool. Same with OS X. Users are more concerned with aqua than what is running under. IMO aqua is cool, for my mom, as for me? KDE, GNOME and Explorer get me where I want and help me do what I need to do. I have been using all of the stated os's for quite some time. I do not consider myself an uber geek, but I have learned a thing or 2, Each OS has its place. There is NO one perfect OS. *NIX is rock solid and I wouldnt want my servers running anything else, XP is a decent gaming/multimedia system (winamp, emphpod and moodlogic), and OS X is a good system for those who dont wanna have to screw arround with their stuff. They just want it to work. If you are lucky, you have all three systems running. That has been my conclusion to the never ending OS battle. Run each and run as much as you can on them, that will give you more ability than those who bitch and mone over which is better and stick to their ways, their views are tainted by their ignorance.
just my opinion.
ok, just curious if it was just me (being new to 3, or just winamp)
Like I said, needs some backend work, has a lot of potential though ( i think ). I am just excited of the port to linux.....xmms sux compared to winamp, and if all i can get is 3 for linux, I'd be one of the happiest around;p....keeping in mind, i havent read the docs/faq;s on the winamp site, based on what you wrote, it looks like they just re-wrote it and are breaking away from windows api for cross-platform (linux etc..) Which would rock.
yea, the morals may be there, but, when it comes down to it, they have to argue it in court. I dont blame AOL for doing what they did. They had to, to avoid any legal hassles.....big deal. We got it, who cares....;p
I guess it depends on the lawyers, I have had issues with this over the past when we term employees, and with letting employee's take stuff home. I work with architects, and our lawyer says that the drawings our conisdered IP of our firm. I think that the laywers see justins Rebellious streak, but also realize that he does good work and is worth the keep. I think we may see sometime like this implemented in AOL sometime soon. Then, maybe they will let him release the code again. Until they implement it, its a competition they dont want to have.
yea, but the code was prolly somewhat generated on AOL's computers, which they own, therefor owning the "intellectual property" (its early, cant spell if that is wrong).
Not sure on the validity of this, but that is what they will phear if someone sues them for CP infringment. They'll just claim that Justin released it w/o authorization, GPL'd or not. Hrmm, sounds like a certain (SCO) other company that released some code......interesting.
He should just backchannel this stuff. Then he doesnt have to worry bout anything (not that he does) but he wouldnt have to listen to boring political ramifications from some AOL cheesy lawyer.....
just my thoughts....
Yea, ok, try running it on your network, lmk how many vuln's it creates......i have had it on mine for months, and you wouldnt even know its there unless I told you.
Slashdot Mirror
Yea, well I don't think he interviewed any A.D.D. ppl like me....
We can monitor tons of things all day long (given enough cafienee), go home, and forget what we did all day....
Who's to say that all the other ISP wont just say screw it, and not re-route the new IP's. Seems like this is only a mandate on NAC.
There were far worse games, (ie: quake 3). These games were atleast original.....

whats wrong with winamp 3???? I kinda like it.... needs some work on the backend, but overall its good.
