Its like that guy who had the sarcasm truck run him over, back up over him, and run over him again and he never got a look at it and was just left banged up and not knowing what the hell just happened to him.
You are SO right. I think he should be brought up on charges. People might actually view this bootleg and think "WOW! That movie shitty! You would think a movie studio could at least get rid of all the background noise! And did they film this thin on a boat?!?!?! What's with all the shaking of the movie not to mention the horrible grainy experience!! I won't spend a dime going to watch that movie or even think of renting it!"
Some people are just desperate. Its like most of the people here and women. Least with bootleg video's they can actually touch something and watch it do its thing.
That murder is frowned upon. Everytime I read some of this ridiculous stuff anymore, I just find myself wanting to eliminate whoever it is who came up with and then pushed said idea. I consider that more benefit to the people and sadly our 'For the people' doesn't care anymore.
That's actually not a bad idea. I have a fairly robust anti-spam setup wit filters, spamd, and a one time challenge response system for email that hasn't been whitelisted and can't be validated as spam. Using said system, I could possibly do away with the challenge response portion of my system. Thanks for the idea. Also, I have user@domain.com to give away to those I fear will spam me or sell my info.
Sadly, I agree with you at the same time I disagree. Google being the type of company it is surely was aware of G-Mail before they ever even launched gmail and were betting the odds nothing would happen. surely they thought this guy would concede to the great do no evil google. I haven't trusted google since they went public. I don't have a gmail account, and I rarely use any google services except for search. Even those I have done through tor and anonymously as I have never signed up for ANY google service. This case goes on to further prove my point and I hope google is forced to change its service name. There is an easy way to do this. google could be allowed used of gmail for one year and all emails sent from a gmail account will autonomously be fixed to send from googlemail.com instead. Any mail sent to gmail will also send a reply back to originator that all future mail should be sent to googlemail instead. No harm done to anyone.
Is it really so bad if you are playing a game, stroll into the town and see a McDonalds sign hangin on Ye' Ol Tavern? I mean really..Its not like someone will have adverts between cut scenes or something. Its like in the movies, the actor picks up and drinks a coke or pepsi. That is advertising..
The first 2 were the best. Civ 2 was by far my favorite of the entire series. I wish they could take the game dynamics from 4 and import them into 2 with updated graphics but not overdone as I think they did with the map details in 4.
I'm far from being an MS fan. Of the 32 computers in my house, only 5 computers run an MS OS. Soon to be 6 when I get my daughter her computer built. The rest of the machines are mostly headless servers or htpc running freebsd. My distrust in google is in how they are trying to dominate markets they have never been involved in before. They are trying to be a be all, end all to the web in general. Once they are the monopoly, once they own the fiber and are your isp, your search engine, your offline storage, your god knows what else, who is to stop them? The became who they are through the people and the ability to provide based on a do no evil mentality, but as history has shown itself to often, all good things will fall. Remember, their was a time when even Wal-Mart was good for the economy and the middle to lower class.
Tony, listen... Cousin Tony from your father Tony's uncle Tony put a gift in the trash for you. Make sure to get on the trash detail. I'll have your sisters husband Tony make sure none of the guards inspect the trash first since he works in that area.
In my opinion, the header info IS a way to prove your innocence.. "Look, all my music has MY name on them" or "Those songs were not uploaded to p2p by me, look, my name isn't on them". Personally, I think the info should be hashed into the data somehow and only a encryption key owned by copyright holder should be able to extract that data (with benefit to anyone with knowhow to do this on their own). I don't see this as a huge privacy concern unless you are afraid of telemarketers and such having a scheme to steal ipods or whatever music player you use just to figure out what you listen to and or view.
Get over it people, its a name and account info. Hell, sign up with a throw away.
I have never been to a university library. Funny I guess since I am nearly completed with a Bachelors in Computer Science, and working on a Criminal Justice degree as well. I have always been able to suffice with just the books provided by the course, public libraries, what I could borrow, or could order online.
I'm my own hypocrite I guess on this topic. I agree that libraries could use better search mechanisms in some cases. But once you get down aisle, row, shelf of where a book is located as some of the better libraries I have been to, its only real limitation is the input given to the system. Any system that can organize data and provide a location for it seems to be a working system.
I started with a tandy color computer II (CoCo2) when I was 6 and was learning to program in basic when I was 7. Before that, I learned how to set the time on my VCR. I'm 30 next month (God I feel old).
I broke down one time when putting up a crib for my first born and used the instructions. My god that thing was a woman's invention if I EVER saw one. I was glad when we transferred and I could plausibly lose the damnable thing. I still cringe at the thought though. I was so weak! I feel like a lesser man! They need to have a "I used the instructions anonymous' support group or something.
I have never had a problem with the Dewey Decimal system. Could it be that most digital natives are of a younger generation who feel the world should be handed to them and they also feel they have no need to learn anything except that which is of interest to them forcing the rest of the world to conform to their lack of motivation?
I see "Shared Source", as an "Open Source" license honestly with MS spin on it. MS is imo in this case trying to sway things its way with its licenses so people will have less reason to use a more free license. A rose with any other name is still a rose.
No..They are saying that if I don't allow redistribution as 1 example, my code is not open source. I totally disagree with that. I may not want my code used elsewhere. I open my code up for audit purposes only. That is Open Source in my book with the intent of what my license allows. OSI is saying NO, we created the Open Source Definition (OSD) and you license violates that. I guess I need to market a new term.... "Open Code" just to navigate the bastardization of there definition.
Wish I had mod points. I think you are correct in your statement. Its about someone having control. The license should be its own control mechanism and if a license doesn't live up to what its supposed to, the community as a whole will decide what happens to the code behind it. I don't need OSI to tell me that some company didn't live up to there standard of open source. That's my decision to make.
So my license I make up for the hell of it with my terms that still allows anyone to view and audit my code if not approved by OSI means I can't market open source? Even though my code is open? Am I missing something about the word open?

Wrist watches have had this for years now. I think it was casio who first started doing it wide scale.

First time I ever saw a post modded -1:Offtopic before a second post..

I'm aware of the system but have never been in a situation to where I had to learn it. At this time though, I feel obligated to see how it is handled.
The smell of the book as you open it..The wonder of who before you has opened and delved into its depths. The ability to touch a tangible object.
:-P
The paper cuts!! Yeouch!! Gotta love low tech

They have made the underlying security model so damned complex that it takes 6 months to figure out how to patch a bug/whole.
