  1. Re:DMCA violation? on A Worm's Worm · · Score: 0

    Im pretty sure this happened somewhere near where I live, here in Connecticut. I believe it was 5 years ago. Some guy was breaking into a school by climbing on to the roof and into a vent. Except he fell through a glass skylight and was severly injured. Even though he admitted to planning to break in, he won a settlement.

  2. Re:Seen in Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex on Hardware-Based Commute-Map Gadget · · Score: 0

    Same things as in The Italian Job. "Napster" hacks the traffic light system forcing some trucks to go a certain way.

  3. The SARS front on SARS Contained · · Score: 0, Troll

    WHO just likes to pimp out drugs. The virus that supposedly caused SARS was never actually isolated. The amount of the "virus" is what usually determines how devistating the virus is. The amount of SARS was never measured in any patients because they didn't know what they were really looking for. Add to this the fact that a large portion of the people who died were elderly. Give an elderly person, with a weak immune system, some drugs...quarenteen em in a depressing place like a hospital....tell em they have a deadly virus. Even if they never had anything in the first place, the negative effects of the above is enough to kill a person. In the end, the OP works out for WHO. They make themselves look like saviors. What happens to the countries that go against WHO's agenda? They get called inhumane and denied future aid. So...the media makes a huge deal out of a variation of the flu, people run scared and buy worthless masks, and WHO is the hero!!! WHO is an organization run by ex and current Pharmaceutical stock holders. They pump out new and deadly diseases, and viruses. Then the drugs start flowing. Then the cash starts flowing. SARS is just another OP to make WHO look godlike. Period. 1. Create worldwide scare 2. Save the world with a cure 3. PROFIT!!

  4. Re:What's next? on Office-Hour Habits of the North American Professor · · Score: 1

    "the reluctant - it doesn't matter when the office hours are, the reluctant usually try to avoid having to ask for help at all costs. a mixture of ego, high self expectation, stubbornness, and pride drive the reluctant to overachive. if the professor ever starts the answer with "oh that's easy", the student will never be seen in his office again. (note: this would be me)" Sometimes people are like this because they don't want to be confused with the other two types. At least thats how I was. Didn't want to look like a suck up like 50% of the people. And didn't want to look like an idiot who couldn't figure out simple things on their own.

  5. Whats his name on PressPlay + Roxio? · · Score: 1

    Anyone know if Shawn Fanning (my closest guess to his name) still has any part of Napster anymore. As a fellow drop out of Northeastern he's definately my favorite underdog. So is he going to benefit from this or has he just moved on?

  6. Almost the same, but backwards on 'Pacemaker'-like GPS Device for Humans · · Score: 1

    I remember watching this MTV special about hacking. (I'm sorry :) Anyway, they had this one group of guys who were using police scanners, and some software to triangulate the location of every cop in New York. From what I remember, they hadn't perfected it, but they were very close. Not exactly the same as what's being talked about here, but very similar, and very scary.
