though A lot of people think they are free while they are just prisoners of their own house and government.
But that's a discussion that could result in many questions-and-answers. I just feel my freedom has been lost.. and I can't find it anymore whatever I am trying.
Maybe people should protect their freedom by making a commercial "I am free" or better said "I want to be free".
The commercial could try (atleast) to warn other people of their freedom-at-stake... Everybody is feeling free and protected in the "so-good-running-society" but are they free ? Far from if I read the latest headlines and watching the news.
Everything around DMCA, uncappers-delight, Microsoft holding your systems hostage, all claims go to terrorism,...
I had a conversation with two Americans in the bar where I play music at and it seems they where really disgusted by the way the US is currently pushing the country on the television as if nothing is happening. All the news goes about "how good and free the US really is" and seems to be a very small time dedicated to the news of the rest of the world. When is this keep-everybody-dumb-mentality going to stop? Another thing for example is the discrimination at television. The society has all different kind of people, including gay people. Why are all gay presentators being pushed off television and prides being cancelled since the "new president" is "on the power" ? (I call it power because if you see what's getting pushed on lately...)
Sorry for any grammar errors because I am European myself and I do not like the way the world is going to. I am very scared of my future and also for the children next to me.
Though, do you like to use a not-maintained package? When was the last date it was updated? How are you going to stay in touch with current technologies if the package is not being maintained ?
Because we carry music to the general audience. Not only television carries music but we mix it and bring it to the audience so everybody can ask "what was that song you where playing?".. or "what CD is this on?"..
But forget it... I won't give the CD name if it is going to be copyprotected ; it damages my job and I will not promote anything that tries to tear me down.
Because I am a DJ I am very dissapointed in the decision of BMG. This way it is very bad to use cd's in their full extend. A have seen a lot of mutual problems in the reactions onhere. Here is my full article and my worries as DJ.
Bertelsmann (BMG Music) will stop to sell uncrippled CD's. This means such cd's will not play at certain older & newer CD players, certain car players and will not play in your computer. This for the price of 20US$ to 22US$ per CD !
As DJ I am very worried because one scratch crashes my CD into oblivion. The copyprotection does not let me play half of my cd's on my old cd players in my house (and I have three of those).
The protection on these cd's is the Cactus Data Shield from Midbar. The protection is currently only being used on EUROPEAN cd's. A lot of the cd's being used in Europe are not available in the US what leaves only one option, buying them here and praying they do not get damaged + work in the CD players you use at that time.
The error is in your player, not in our copyprotected cd's. --- BMG distributes a lot of the cd's that are currently being used by me as DJ and shows no respect for their customers whatsoever by creating CD's that work on only 80% of the home/pro audio equipment. Additionally they say "the error is your player's, and not in our CD's".
I am at a very moral dillemma because every time I buy music I first search the MP3's and then write down the titles I want to find. Some of these titles are only to be found on CD's and some of 'm are only to be found on vinyl.
legally bought music is working against me now! --- I used to go to the recordstore and get about 20-30 records whereof 1 or 2 where usable. Whenever I go to the recordstore now I give 20 titles and get 15 useful numbers out of it. I currently have over 800 CD's and over 22.000 records of vinyl. Currently I am buying more on CD because carrying all the vinyl is breaking my back:)
Since I cannot use the cd's wherever I want and 1 scratch can kill the CD because of this lousy copy protection I need to buy the CD *and* burn the same MP3's to seperate CD's to be sure I can keep using the music I want to play legally!
The secret agent not working everywhere! I have bought the CD of James Bond (Universal) and it seems not to work in my PC (where I play the most of my music, my PC speakers are the best in my house!) and they seem not to work in my old cd players of my own DJ equipment! Next to that the shop does not want to take the Bond CD back. With the line of defence BMG has by saying "their cd's are fully redbook compliant and it's your player's fault" they also tell you you can bugger off by bringing it back to the shop where you bought your precious CD.
I have bought several other CD's like "Solid Sounds" which is giving me errors as well. Currently I am trying to recover one of the legally bought CD's by searching the MP3's and burning them in the same order on another CD because I cannot just copy it and the CD is damaged by (over)usage as DJ.
BMG's reply of one of their CD's --- Whenever you send a note to BMG you get the following mail back (unaltered):
"we are sorry you have troubles with our copy protection technology. The copy protection reacts on the special new technology that is build in in burners. Unfortunately htis technics was built in many new CD players, even if they can't copy a cd. "The copy protection yet does not recognize wheather that burner technics is build in a cd player or in a burner. That's why the cd playern might not play a copy protected CD. Since burner technics are also built in car radios, this may be the reason, why you can't listen to a copyprotected cd in your car. "As far as we were adviced, our copy protection is according to the Red Book Standart as well as all labelling on the cd. "A standart home CD player is one that has no burner technics built in. Our Cds play on all Cd players without burner technics. "There will be no cd manufactured without copyprotection any more."
This seems to limit a lot of options and costs me a lot more to find the numbers, import these from wherever possible and find them on mp3 to have a backup CD of my original CD! Of'course they tell "we are sorry" though they also tell us "the fault is in our bought players and there will be no cd's manufactured without protection anymore"... I wish I should not have read this blasphamy towards a lot of customers!
Moral dillema, I am for the music, not against! --- Because I am a DJ I cannot tolerate (for myself) to be using illegal material! I live by the music and I live FOR the music and not AGAINST. Seems to be BMG has the same reason but not only FOR the music but to protect their precious wallet!

Ports only go from 0 to 65535 so port 65536 gets back to port 0 and 65537 goes to port 1, you do the math though it's quite easy to scan for ports inbetween the 0-65535 range.

Are you really free ?
Are you sure ?
Spiderman, Batman, Robin, Superman, anybody
Help me !
I'm being ripped off, being stolen from, get the bad guys ! HEEEEEEEEEEELP MEEEEE
Holy cow
Though, do you like to use a not-maintained package? When was the last date it was updated? How are you going to stay in touch with current technologies if the package is not being maintained ?
Don't you have any respect for your old network equipment ? Who uses a router "to round the edges" to put his mouse on?
I tought about it as soon as pressed submit but was too lazy to send a correction email ...
.. though the idea is still correct to have some more rendundancy/reliability with 2 drives ...
Our servers also run RAID1
How reliable will these drives be ? since the spot is smaller a head-crash could crash your entire harddrive instead of loosing a "few" files.
Maybe such systems will be reliable (in laptops) by putting in 2 of such harddrives (RAID5?).
I would be worried with such small harddrives, sure in movable PC's and sure if it is coming from IBM which is known for having certain bad drives.
Because we carry music to the general audience. Not only television carries music but we mix it and bring it to the audience so everybody can ask "what was that song you where playing?" .. or "what CD is this on?" ..
... I won't give the CD name if it is going to be copyprotected ; it damages my job and I will not promote anything that tries to tear me down.
