Fine then, stand up against the man, you do that but don't be surprised when he comes after you. Sharing is illegal and personally while I have no love for RIAA, I don't feel sorry for law breakers either. Get the law changed by writing your congressman, form your own lobbying group and get something done. Personally, most of these people are probably sharing Britney Spears latest album or whatever is out there. RIAA doesn't care if share some no name band that isn't signed with them. It cares about the big bands they control. Stop acting like your downloading off of is a moral duty. You just want some free music, movies and anything else you download off there.
SP2 also isn't mass deployed at least to those I talked to. I'm on Windows XP (I'm gamer leave me alone) and I haven't deployed SP2. Many people I know have passed on SP2 because they have heard bad things (mainly) or don't want to download it (just adding excuses). Everyone I know runs Firefox, Firebird or something similar. (I know for fact I have a few Firebird.7 still out there)
Lately, more and more screen shots I've seen on people desktops and of internet have included firefox in some form. I've also converted people who install Avant to their system. Avant is great but can be unstable and when I can give them a browser who doesn't do ActiveX and isn't some hack for already screwed up browser, I'm happy. Firefox is making leaps and bounds and it's user base is growing. Microsoft knows it. Why else would SP2 include some "security" updates? Also, why run Admuncher or Adblock which is eating additional RAM and is just more shit to go wrong?
SIZE OF COUNTRY, From the CIA World Fact Book:
South Korea Land Size: 98,190 sq km
Area - comparative: slightly larger than Indiana
United States of America Land Size: 9,161,923 sq km
Area - comparative: about half the size of Russia; about three-tenths the size of Africa; about half the size of South America (or slightly larger than Brazil); slightly larger than China; about two and a half times the size of Western Europe
Difference in sizes: 9,063,733 sq KM
Hmmm..... I think for 67 million dollars we could wire the entire state of Indiana with high speed.... It's not a simple as in United States is lagging because lack of will. I think it's a simple 93x the land space we have to do and it takes a little more time. You know, the whole time and money thing.
Serious guys, if your reading this, fire your damn marketing team or at least remove them from the programming discussions. Take a lesson from quicktime. No ads, no popping up, no flashing shit in the bottom. Also, when I turn you off, FREAKING QUIT AND GET THE HELL OUT OF MY RAM. Any additional advice will cost you.
So what he's a microsoft server poster child? At least Microsoft Claim to their OS are legit. People want Microsoft Servers, fact of life and EV1 is willing to provide them. Now their SCO deal, well fuck them, should have done more research into that or listened to the tech that said "Don't DO IT"
You can also use Ambrosia's Wiretap available at Ambrosia Software which is how I get around their DRM. Also useful if you just have to record something.
I believe however, calling to conduct a poll with the intent to sell is illegal. That loophole is there for true polling companies. (True is subjective but companies that CNN and Fox use) I'm not going to discuss those said polls worth however.
It has attacked a company based in Utah called SCO, bringing down its website with a barrage of emails sent from countless computers into which the worm had been insinuated, unbeknownst to the users.
It was HTTP GET requests. Problem is most PHB listen to people like him but they can't even get the freaking details right on small shit like that. Yes they were probably hit bad with MyDoom email viruses but so my 6 user server. HTTP GET DDOS was targeted at them but that has been zero proof of a Linux Zealot targeting them. Let me know when you get evidence not just some speculation.
Comparing Call of Duty to BF1942 isn't fair. I think Call of Duty is much more realistic then BF1942. Blowing up Tanks with Grenades. I like COD much better then BF1942.
How about I don't have a problem with buying my music online and "supporting" the RIAA. Sure there is the artists who don't mind you downloading their music but most artists who see it as piracy believe that the RIAA is the only way to protect their interests. Buy music online, "Support" the RIAA and eventually the artists will figure out they skip RIAA and go stright to Music Services. Kazaa and WinMX and whatever other P2P services you use probably won't make them change their mind and not give into RIAA. All they see is you downloading their music and someone to fight for their rights. RIAA anti-piracy tactics can be saved for another thread.
It's not the mouse, or the monitor or the keyboard. It's the fact that YOUR not there. My girlfriend will bitch about the little stuff when she wants me to come to bed and ignore it when she doesn't care. It's not the mouse. Turn off the computer or better yet, donate it's processing time to your favorite distributed computing project. Seti@Home is mine. You pick yours. It might also improve the relationship a bit. Try it and tell me how it's working out for you.
NO THEY DON'T. For the last freaking time, that's old news. Microsoft sold off their shares a while back and Apple has been Microsoft Money (real money, not their POS app) free since around 2001.
I've been using the 2.0 Beta at home without any problems. It's makes a great firewall for old boxes and has support for Proxies, DynDNS and everything else you expect in a good firewall. All configured easily from a web based interface. Works great for protecting those Windows boxes too. Think Windows cowering behind a big Tux. Kudos smoothwall team.
Amen, On our campus, we have a 45 Meg pipe for about 1500 nodes, those are the current DHCP leases anyways. Bandwidth is expensive. Kazaa traffic is expensive and viruses cause so many problems. Think about it. A bunch of personal computers that can't just walk up to, demand access, install viruses software and Windows updates and walk off. BTW, Campus bandwidth isn't suppose to be used for Kazaa, it's suppose to be used for gaming.;)
Let's not forget, there is no if and or buts, downloading your music (99% of the traffic, I don't get my ISOs from Kazaa I get them from a.torrent) is illegal. Remember, most people in dorms aren't computer science majors and only use Kazaa for music/movies.
Does copyright law need a overhaul? YES. Does that give you the right to violate it? NO. Personally, I think iTMS or other way of downloading is the best way to STICK IT TO THE MAN. After a while, maybe artists will realize they can tell RIAA to go F*** themselves and sell to Apple or someone else directly. However, widespread piracy makes the most artists feel like an organization like RIAA is needed and will continue to prop them up by letting them rape the artists.
Best Buy got sued a while back because a guy in the Washington D.C. Metro Area was shopping for a new laptop and went store to store with his old laptop writing down prices and features because he wanted the best value. Best Buy didn't allow this and even when so far as ripping off price tags. This guy took them to court for false advertising saying their attitude didn't reflect their name "Best Buy". Judge ruled in favor and said if Best Buy wanted to practice that type of behavior, they would have to post a sign in the front that said "We do not allow competive shopping". Needless to say, Best Buy changed a few things and I think the guy got a free laptop out of them to boot.
Users complain when I switch them. The interface throws them off. I don't see an interface difference but viewing and background operations I do. We all know it's 10x better then IE.
Nobody buys, everyone idiot uses it. I've been on Firebird for about 7 months and I love it. I wish people wouldn't get so up in arms when you switch their web browser. I don't see the difference in the two.

Real question is.... Have you converted today?

Don't you mean another 1010? Thanks Apache for providing a webhosting solution to us all. Even us who are running Windows.
And WMP has SHITTY support for DRM WMA on Mac. It doesn't work half the time. Please try your DRM solution later. Thank you.

Try EscapePod from AmbrosiaSW www.ambrosiasw.com It does wonders for those locked up apps.

It normally doesn't run unless your doing a lot of processing which isn't happening 99% of the time.
