Yes, but what happened after that? Are they doing anything with them like releasing better quality to the public? I remember Wired (good read) mentioned this.
Has DRM'ed WMA files been broken yet? I got a song for free, and I have been unable to find any tools to crack it. I had to use TuneBite to record it from WMA to MP3 via analog (loses quality) in Windows. Also, none of my Linux media players can play DRM'ed WMA files.:(
Because back in the old days, video games were mostly played by kids. Many old people don't know that. For example with my parents, they think those cartoons (e.g., South Park, Simpsons, Family Guy) are for kids. Sheesh.
However, I kept losing connections. I tried swapping the SATA cable, adapter, etc. It just didn't work since it would randomly disconnect my third Seagate HDD. It can be OK for weeks and months or last days or hours. See my old newsgroup thread about it. I gave up and got another motherboard and moved this old to my old box for Debian (two PATA/EIDE HDDs without any problems).
Lucky you. I live in a city (not downtown) and the longest I had was 12 hours of no power overnight. It is probably because Sunday. And I am in an area serviced by Southern CA Edison.
... trying to reproduce problems. Snapshots are SO convient in VMware v4+, take a snapshot before the problem occur to skip all the steps before (e.g., install, configure, update).
Dang, I guess I will stop looking at those DVD burners for HDTV stuff then. Are thees HDTV DVRs cheap? I don't care about TV guide. I got Internet for that and I am used to programming my TV shows schedules.;)
Are those old models still sold in local retail stores? Or are they only available on eBay, garage sales, etc.?
Someone else suggested I get a DVD recorder and use it like a VCR. Then, isn't there a limitation if I record HDTV that takes up a lot of disk space and also has problems in recordings (like skippinng?)?
Ditto. This is why I avoid hardware DVRs like TiVo. Currently, I use a computer but it is not super reliable and things break with software, drivers, etc. I just want a dedicated hardware DVR without its subscription. I only get analog and digital TV feeds OTA since I don't have cable and satellite TV services.
How is the speed, uptime, latencies, etc. on these flights? Is it like dial-up speed? I know on cruise ships, Internet really sucks. Worse than dial-up.
Many QA people, including myself, use VM as well. Very useful with buggy builds. The best part is sharing the image. I can send a copy of my image to a developer with the reproduced issues without having him/her to come over to see it on my real machine. We still use real machines for testing, but VM is useful.
I still use my old 2X CD-RWs that I got with my Yahama CD-RW burner back in 1998 or so. I just do a lot of session imports. Does that count as a write? Or is write considered a full CD burn? Either way, it hasn't failed yet!

Yep, but it costs more. That is why companies refuse to hire more people.
Go here for those who hates multiple pages. ;)
Yep, so are you as a stupid, lazy, and/or tech-illiterate. [grin]

Republicans are no better. Who is actually better? No one!

Whree's the instructionsfor this?? I ran both EXE files and can't figure how to use it. I still have the DRM'ed WMA file to practice with them.

Also, didn't FOX put it at 7:00 PM on Sundays for new episodes to get bad ratings? That was a bad spot for guys in east coast due to NFL games.
For some reason, the one in the story asked me to log in. Here's a non-registration link.
Don't forget Mission Impossible 3.

Thanks. I will check them out after my VCR dies or whatever and when I get a digital TV (still using a 20" CRT TV).

I think Ad-Aware and SpyBot does the same too. Or maybe it was only Spybot.
