A video camera in the theater is probably the worst way to bootleg a movie. Anyone who puts some serious thought into doing it can think up several better methods, such as:
-Get the projectionist or another employee in on it.
-Come early, mount the camera out of sight beforehand.
these are off the top of my head. I by no means condone this course of action, but I wish someone would put some brains into their attempts.
Also, as stated previously, most of the good quality bootlegs come from reviewer copies of the DVDs and are available before the movie's premier in theaters.
Come on, think about how much ass this kicks. Now I can fulfill my Solid Snake fantasies.
In all seriousness, this wouldn't look anywhere near as bad as the side-talker. By the time the technology has developed enough for the consumer market it would probably be enough to just place it over the aural opening, one wouldn't have to shove their finger in up to their first knuckle.
I installed as usual, and went about getting plugins and extensions to replace the ones lost in the update. I downloaded a theme called "perfect crystal" or somethign to that effect, and when I tried to switch themes, the browser crashed. In retrospect, I think I might have installed a Thunderbird theme as a Firefox theme. Anyway, the browser crashes and whenever I try to run the program again I get an XBL Binding error that keeps the window from opening. Lovely. I soob begin my frantic search for some way to manually change the configureation settings so that the default theme is loaded. No Such luck. If there was a god, he wouldn't make me use IE. Luckily my version of 0.8 can still be installed and run stably. Even completely uninstaling 0.9 and reinstallign does nothing, all of th setting are saved. Did anyone else have a similar problem, and if so how was it resolved?
Thanks in advance for the advice.
All for it. This is a retarded scheme to keep the citizens of the supposedly "free" united kingdom under constant surveillance in every facet of their lives. England has already lost many of the thigns that we value in our Bill of Rights, especially the right to self defense.
The next this you will see is a law requiring government surveillance in private businesses, or requiring that the government have live access to the already-instated surveillance systems.
England has fallen back into a frightening state Similar to the fictional 20 years ago predicted by George Orwell.
I would reccomend carrying a self defense too of sorts, but the vast majority are now illegal in the UK. My best advise for a defense tool for you is a heavey metal flashlight, such as a Maglite, which can be used as a club or a fistload impact weapon.
Another possibility is a very high-power flashlight such as an Arc Flashlight, which has a candlepower in excess of 33 Lumens. This is bright enough to blind a person momentarliy allowing time for escape.
Also, don't use those iPod headphones, it's like wearing a big, flashing, "MUG ME" sign.

Pssh, we all know Usenet is the "Unmoderated wild side" of the internet. I knew it the first time I read the server list and spotted such horrors as 'alt.binaries.pictures.child'.
No, the special disks have an ink impregnated on the label side, and when the drive burns the label side, it uses a laser powerful enough to cause a chemical change in the ink that turns it a darker color.
It's no cure for cancer. What it does happen to be, however, is a clever method for labeling CDs that only requires a different type of CD with a near nonexhistant price increase. It's still a useful idea with merits for accomplishing one small task.
Actually, the heat of the laser affects a diffferent variable than size of explosion, it woudl affext how fast the reaction occured. With a laser that powerful, it would happen almost instantaneously.
If one wanted to create a larger explosion, more gunpowder, a more powerful explosive, or more layers of varnish is required.
I'd sure liek a way to make "Conservative" lose it's negative connotation. I'm sure that most peopel of the liberal bent have some valid points, as do most conservatives. I personally am right about down the middle, I agree with half of what everyone from any political party says.

Hah, I've seen some of the oter work from the guy who made that, he's awesome.

Photoshop CS already does this.
He's in Britain. ALL WEAPONS are illegal, not matter how stupid that sounds to people with a drop of common sense.

Very cool. Thanks.
this is a terrible idea. it's a waste of electronics, money, and pollution to boot.
LIES, ALL LIES!
