LOL I'd say the Irony was the Linux crowd trumpeting a 10 year old game as a triumph. Don't get me wrong I am all for OSS, and the GPL'ing of code is a great way to give back, but the reality of the situation is most windows machines have 10 better games on them now, and 10 more waiting at the store. Duke was cool in his time but just like Quake was King playing it now AIN't the same and ruins the mystique. As for a port, just use compatability mode under XP and I've got other dos mode games running with few problems. RedNeck rampage, descent among them...
problem. You must have content, worth giving away. This appears to be the RIAAs' problem as well. The big companies music ALL SOUNDS the same. Music sales are not doomed, just the force fed, self serving market scheme the record labels have become used to. Net radio, cheap cd production are going to allow the expiremental and the new become a force again. The cookie cutter 90% profit model is a thing of the past, and if the labels don't realize it soon they will be extinct, government regulations or no. No one has the 'right to profit' either offer a service or product people want and are willing to pay for...or go the way of the Dodo bird. The RIAA needs to take a lesson from the MPAA, put so much stuff on a CD that it becomes a hassle to copy, and bring the price down, a CD costing more than a cassette is FSCK'n ridiculous. When I can buy a DVD with a movie and the soundtrack for less than a cd soundtrack, there is somthing wrong in recordland. All this said I broke down and replaced some music that I had on tape, it finally bought the farm...
You can call it whatever you want, but there IS a LEGAL definition of thievery and I am trying to see how this fits that definition. I agree that business needs to be able to charge for services or it will go away but just because Hillary Rosen call it theft does not a crime it make. I pay for many things on the net, and expect some things for free as a under-educated, over-litigous American, I am still working on the over-weight part.
I saw the banner ad, I did not click on it, I would not have anyways. The NY times has one less bogus entry in thier DB and I was educated. Where is the LOSS that is required for stealing ? If this is a crime it is like prostitution then.
I've got it at mine, and recently I was under the street in downtown SF and a tech pointed to massive bundles laid by companies that no longer exist, it could easily be connected to existing copper or fiber networks to boost available bandwidth. Connecting the satelite (forget the right term) dsl boxes in the neighborhood via this fiber could GREATLY extend the range of the exiting infrastructure, but there is little incentive for the incumbents to do that...it might drive the price down...
Oh well I am sure you are right I it is just a pipe dream..back to the cynical old self now......Archie
cable with the lousy management of upload is better but still lacks. The amount of dark fiber out there is a crime, I'd like to just use a small part of it for non comercial usage, I'd even share with my neighbors:)
Mainfraim 3081 thru 390 on VM MVS TSO, rexx, tandem, as/400, and 3270 terminal configuration experience. Anyone Hiring I will work for cheap..Really tired of exchange and email:)
I work for a big company, and we see that ALL the time...Airborne or Fedex both let you see the digital version of the signatories name..I LOVE that service:)
LOL, I hear the Nvidia GFX comes with an optional dorm room style heating plate attachment for all you starving college kids. You can Frag your buddies and heat some Ramen at the same time:)
What you probably didn't know was it was a pentium 133 that was already overclocked by Intel and sold to you:) I've never had much luck with OC'ing intel stuff either, though I've some buddies that swear by it, I prefer AMD's.
this will fall by the wayside, but what logic prompts this kind of thing ??? EVERYONE already knows if you mess with the multiplier and OC hardware you ash the warranty on the spot. Does Intel feel the need to do this for legal protection or is it a precursor to somthing darker... ****sinister chuckle****
AMD has been my CPU of choice for quite sometime, I just really hope they keep up the good work.
As much SPAM as my hotmail account generates, their filters are sort of effective, but having the same old address for many years has benefited me several times, allowing old friends or online buddies to find me.
waster of my time this week, but it is friday and watching the ITN footage of the 'shock & awe' attack ranks as slightly more interesting, but thanks for the diversion. TGIF and again I did not mean a personal attack just a difference of opinions...Cheers
BTW I've ensured that your comments don't get reparented so there will be no more confusion. There are numerous other ways to view/. beyond the space and time consuming threaded view.
You keep quoting the 2nd of my posts, after YOU told me that I was an INSIGNIFICANT part of your world and that I should take my opinions elsewhere... Nice selective memory, try tracing back the posts to the source and consider your first response to my post which triggered this whole pointless exchange.
And as to my lonely response, try again, there are several in that string, and a link to a Wired article which touches on the SAME line of thought I expressed. Some people must live in a vacuum.
Are you SURE your not a reporter, you seem to have the same pedantic blind spot that is common on many, if not all domestically reported new stories:)
No one ever admits to being INSANE, INCOMPETENT, or EVIL, they just are:)
you are correct, but you are also implying an actual accident, VS. this guy who knowingly took it but with NO INTENT to defraud, or so it seems on the surface at this point....
We are all making some huge assumptions based on little to no REAL evidence:)
BTW I used to be a county sheriff's deputy, in a galaxy far far away...
well maybe if you had not been SUCH a MOUTHY JACKASS for a wee little 24 year old, I do hope you grow up soon, then maybe everyone else would not have just assumed you were a juvenile deliquent. I believe I stated an opinion, not in anyway derogotory to you, which you then took personal and got very defensive. I'd say by the other responses I'm not the only one to pick up on that. If I've offended you it was not my intention, nor do I think YOU or your job is useless, just the equipment that your PUBLICALLY FUNDED radio station is buying.You have no reporters just settle with picking up the AP wire and leave it at reading the approved government news. If you can't take criticism stay on Yahoo then...Those who can't TEACH:)
Oh and I was 24 more than 10 years ago...You'll out grow it, even though it seems like forever:)

Burninate !!! Gotta love strongbad :)
so technically I am hiding the source, or Pac-Bell is doing it for me, I wonder if there is an extradition clause in the law ?

just reply back via fax using the taped roll method. Do it on a sunday at noon and when you run their fax machine dry of paper get a good chuckle :)

regardless of intent, it is called asportation, it involves the physically relocating objects. I am not sure if it covers DATA though....
Asportation is what they get the smart a$$es in stores who ACT like they are stealing somthing then put it down elsewhere..
asportation
n. removal, especially crime of removing property.
