Well, for people who consider prices I guess it isn't since the oracle system cost more (exclusive software cost), thought then the choice of systems might have been "optimized" aswell.
What's wrong with the GPU in the PS3? I thought Nvidia claimed it would be better than 6800 in SLI configuration or something back in the days before it was released? And Nvidia should know, shouldn't they?
(Thought know I saw another comment which mentioned http://www.theinquirer.net/default.aspx?article=25 838 which says that it's slower than 6800 in SLI and that Microsoft and ATI claims that the 360s GPU are faster than that.)
More importantly even Gamecubes GPU was better and it was much cheaper, still PS2 sold many more consoles (thought many bought 3 because they died so fast..)
Someone else added HDD/memory card, also you have to pay for Live to play online.
And then the 360 will still not have the benefits of that the developers knows that there always is a hdd there, it's not backwards compatible with PS2 (obviously) which has lots of games, no HDMI, no blu-ray, no large storage for game media, can't run any homebrew, probably doesn't have as large future performance increase due to developers learning how to use the system (more or less already done on 360 since it was out earlier and is easier to code for.)
Also it's Microsoft damnit, if you let Microsoft win vs Sony sooner or later there will only be Microsoft consoles to choose among aswell.. So then Microsoft have the whole gaming market and we are back to PCs again. (Well, I doubt they can take on Nintendo but who knows.)
Maybe it's down because they have reports about it or something then. In any case who knows if imageshack, flickr, or whatever have child porn aswell? Thought it might had been easier to find on bayimg. Shall we close all image hosting websites?
Would be good if one could just press "report" or something and then have the image temporarily removed until someone from the pirates checked it out and validated it as a clean file or removed it. Thought it's an awful lot of work I guess.
Anyway you can't blame them for that other people uploads random images can you? That could happen anywhere.
No, you wont see uploaded child pornography just because you click a link there, you will see a description of the content and how many seeders and leechers there are. Then you need to download the torrent file, run a torrent client, connect to people who actually have the files, download them.. So at most TPB does help you to connect with them, but things like google and so on can be used for that aswell.
Except code lines often are indented quite a bit and therefor you don't have 80 characters of space for the actual data on the line. Also if you want to add comments you are even more screwed.
More lines are better, however I don't think we need any new standard, just type a very long line and let the editor be intelligent enough to show it in a good way with whatever width the user prefer, that's how it is supposed to be isn't it?
All they said was that TPB had a chance of beeing added if they didn't removed the material, which they probably did and so there are no problem longer.
Your post works like porn for me, there is something with girls smearing themself and spreading their legs which works in my mind... and it contains childrens, shall we ban slashdot?
So did the admins know about the files? Also how should they check such things? Is this really their jobs?
Also is it even illegal to take photos of even dancing nude children? Where is the line drawn for child porn? Is photos of nude babies in diapers "child porn"?
Well, why they don't care about copyright infringement is because they doesn't belive that it should be a crime I guess...
If I have to choose between anonymous spreading of whatever ideas you might have vs a public but censored system where only the ideas which are considered "right" are allowed to pass thru I'm all for the first one, even if I might not agree with all the ideas which will be spread.
Because in the end who shall decide what is right and wrong and why?
Sure if you mail TPB crew and tell them about child pornography and the admins don't like it they will probably remove it just because THEY don't like it, not because they have to (since they aren't the ones spreading it to begin with.), and the same goes for copyright infringement. But you can't expect them to go thru all the files themself can you? Personally I would had prefered a distributed network of storing the data, distributing and uploading it, as anonymous as possible. Because then noone even COULD censor it even if they wanted to (and we wouldn't have to argue this.)
How evil it might sound one could even argue that not censoring already existing images is good because then noone have to create new ones.. Thought the fact that they exist might spark more weird ideas in peoples heads and the people who are into it would probably document it anyway.
What kind of files was they? Are we talking sexual acts involving grown up people and children or are we talking images of random female teenagers?
How should TPB hide them? Or how should they possible look inside all the content which are spread there?
In the end it's not TPB who host the files, they only offer a way to find them, just as google and similair systems does, if you want to prosecute and punish someone do it to the people who actually PRODUCE the shit and SPREAD it, not random system which might be used to reach it because then you can just aswell ban the whole Internet, magazines, letters, private photography, books,... Because how can you know for sure that they aren't used for "bad" content?
Ok, I don't like the fact that my next letters would say that I will accept spreading of child porn, but if the alternative is complete and total censorship I would prefer the freedom to post and say whatever you want.
The people who are into child porn will find their shit anyway.
"Now the police is treating the site like any other site doing the same thing", so if I could find any form of child pornography using googles image search the police would shut google down? If anyone sends photos of childs beeing harassed sexually with the post we should shut down the post?
Retarded system if you can get out without any form of punishment just because you have got money. So rich people can just skip jail but poor people have to take their punishment?
But maybe someone want to actually be able to use their 4GB of ram. Or can they in a 32-bit OS as long as the chipset supports 36 bit adressing or similair even with memory mapped IO?
What I don't see is how this matters from how you already use scroll bars on mac laptops, you put both your fingers there and drag in the direction you want to scroll, don't you? So this will already work using coverflow, doesn't it?

How much did you look?
Heres how to contact them - http://thepiratebay.org/contact (it's in the footer of each page.)
To report any illegal activity they recommend you to contact the local authority / ECPAT - http://thepiratebay.org/about

I wonder if the torrents are removed aswell or still works.
Gone now.
TPB doesn't serve child pornography, they just offer a method thru which it might be possible to do it.
Yeah that will work great! Because the people who wanna look at child porn sure won't change their name server settings!?
Sure it might work for stoping people who just search for it for seeing if any exist or not, but not vs the people who really wants it.

OMG, this is fucking great, easy to get videos and MPAA can't do shit here, thanks! ;D
Hey, I thought I was the first one who got that idea!?

Thought she seems kind of old
Omg, that was the funniest thing I've ever read.

Yeah, but in general 73% of all statistics are made up right there on the spot!
Still fake squishes, not the cartoonated ones! ;/
