Chances are these AP's will be open and most AOL users are not savvy enough to secure them. So looks like this should create some more open AP's for us when we are away from home.
There are lots of posts on Steam about users being pissed about having to log into steam and use the disk check after verifying the serial. A no-cd crack was relased which would still require you to login and verify your serial with Steam. People are getting banned for using the no-cd crack. The Warez version of the game does not even go through steam so it would be hard for Steam to lock someone out.
Also, I played the warez version of the game before I bought it since it was sold out in the store. The warez version started up in 5-10 seconds. The retail version takes almost 45 seconds with Steam verification and CD checking. I have a high end system so thats not the bottleneck.
Anyone who goes into a bar and starts turning off the TV because they dont want to hear it is just simply an asshole. If you dont want to deal with the TV then dont go to a place that has them.
They make it sound like everywhere you go has a TV now. The only places I have been to that have TVs are places that have a bar. And the TV is usually around the damn bar.
If you go somewhere and the tv is distracting you from the people you are with then i am sure there are a hundred other things that will distract you also.
I can't wait till I hear about some assclown who catches a beat down when he turns off a playoff game at a sports bar.
The world is designed by the users to be the perfect place. Only a matter of time before someone desides to hook up into this thing with their head and then we will have to wait for Morpheus to free us from it..... Wait isn't that a movie?

About time that someone saw this point in the article! The reason why we need to go searching around for the latest driver or hardware is because everything is tied together with WINBLOWS. The hardware will only work as good as the code that is running it!
If Microsoft was able to write a tighter operating system then they wouldn't need to even create X-Crap.
Thats because these CPUs are NOTHING more than 850s which are 'designed'(well maybe not as well as they thought) to run at 1130mhz
Intel and AMD simply overclock their chipsets to give them more life when yeilds allow it, but this time I guess a bean counter somwhere in Intel is getting yelled at right now.

Hmm...Ive been hacking up a AIM clone on Visual Basic so the IT department where I work can't detect it, so I know the limitations of the TOC protocol:o) Lets take a look at the basic features OSCAR has over TOC.
Buddy Icon - Although it is pretty fun to play with it is not that useful.
Chat - Hmmmm You can do that with the TOC server...
Get File - I can think of a lot better ways to send a file than over AIM. When I went from modem to DSL it stopped working for me. They I went to cable and it works again. But I still prefer IRC, Email or what not.
Talk - I have tried the talk feature on AIM and I find that you can get free third part utilities that work better for low bandwidth solutions.
New and Stock Ticker - Well I spend my money before I earn it so I haven't found too much of a use for this one either, put their are a million other better programs that will give you the stock and news ticker for free(ex: www.yahoo.com)
BTW, if I ever get off by butt I might just put it on my web site.

It doesn't surprise me that a company that can't write GOOD code to protect against attachment viruses would hire lawyers that can't figure out how to type in a username and password.
ARG.....i still have a 56K cause my cable company is a bunch a cheap asses...TKR/Cablevision....and Bell Atlantic is procrastinating in my central jersey location with the ASDL, so untill then....56K....oh and at school my 56K had a meltdown so i had to drag out the old 3COM 14.4 external....its sad cause its true
I single handedly created a faster modem in my basement. It allows someone to connect to their ISP at over 256K over copper wires...but u have to but up with the add banners while u browse...
Linux runs quicker and more stable than Windows 98 on my computer, so how is Linux expected to retain its stability and speed if its running on Windows 98?
Least your 14.4K can still connect with this slowdown....it connects, but it goes SOOOOOO SLOW....even for a 14.4k to the point where i have to look at.\ in the library. -btw....anyone have a 56K external for sale? buono@erols.com
Um no, Visual Basic is so easy, it shouldn't even count as a language. Ive had days where I have had a hangover, and I can still do Visual Basic and SQL....and I think the storm should take a detour....so there:-) I dont think we're in kansas anymore to-to!

If they dont ship it 30 minites after you order is it free?

I already have Mozilla, so I just unzipped the files to my Mozilla/bin/. directory. Then ran the Kmeleon EXE and PRESTO! NT4

Just imagine if all the work put into this Anonymous crap was used for something useful.

Lets see em try to install one of those gizmos in a 69 Vet Stingray roaring down the highway......hehe

Do you know anyone know even uses half the features in MS Word? It is very expensive and it is also very complicated to learn and use.
And one they while mowing the lawn they will find it just sitting there, all forgoten...
