Try searching for "tiananmen square massacre", seems to give a few results. And I was getting some results from peacefire.org, which US censorship programs usually block. Not sure if they could've accessed it or not though. Can they view pages from Google's cache server?
Wow. Require your employees to inject some chip to permanentally identify them before doing in depth research about them. Seriously, cloning the RFID chips was one of the first things that came to mind. You might as well use several levels of biometrics.
Google Desktop has auto-update, correct? I'm on the 11/01/05 version, and I don't see anything about this. I do see in the privacy policy: "Your computer's content is not made accessible to Google or anyone else without your explicit permission."
I'd say it has more to do with IE on XP SP2 making it harder to download activex. I wonder what would happen if spyware makers actually started trageting firefox though.
Yeah, I'm cheap, so I don't buy books I don't need to. I just borrow books I want to read from the library. I know in the libraries around here, it's very easy to a book from another library. Just look up the book you want in the catalogue and place a hold. How is it in other places? They are lacking when it comes to the software selection though.
Will bulk mailings that didn't used to now end up in the spam folder? Honestly, just not showing images/links right away doesn't sound that bad. It's the default behavior of Thunderbird at least, and I don't really mind. Thunderbird does seem to think a lot of emails are scams though. Like all winning bidder notices from ebay.
It doesn't mean the game sucked. It just means the person wanted to sell it. Perhaps it just doesn't have good replay value. For example, I probably should've sold Phoenix Wright, because, while it's awesome, there's not much replay value. Plus, some people just race through games and sell them as soon as they're beaten.
I hated it, although I've only tried it on MS Virtual Machine. First, it srashed right at boot. Then, after reinstalling, it actually booted, but the graphics were messed up, and it BSOD'd a whole lot.
You know, the site that has being doing this sort of stuff for years, and was bought by Yahoo? How about comparing them to these (newer?) sites? Although, it is windows only, and the sound quality kind of sucks, even on high.
Then watch Discovery channel or something. They used to have shows that were like CSI, only real. Not sure if they still do. Perhaps they replaces them with motorcycles and the like?
The Aladdin series is rather awesome. I have a series recording set up.:)
Then there's the older TV shows like Ducktales, Chip 'N Dale Rescue Rangers, and Darkwing Duck. Those were rather awesome as well.
What happened to the Disney animators now? You know, the people who made 2D animated movies. What if they joined that company too, and the company produced 2D and 3D movies?
Except ripping streams is probably illegal. I'm not too sure about that though. Probably about the same legality as just downloading mp3s. Of course, if one downloaded all the content on mp3.com back before it died, they'd easily have that much legal content.
In general, people using Firefox know more about computers. I'd say it would be about as likely for someone to get infected by an XPI installation in firefox as an activex installation in XP SP2's IE. You need to click a toolbar in both. Firefox may need a few extra steps to install stuff, but that really won't matter. There's also the fact that there are many more activex spyware installers than XPI spyware installers.

What about just plain FTP?
Indeed, I thought it meant General Motors at first.
Apparently, Microsoft has now forbidden it. There used to be a lot of easter eggs in Microsoft stuff.
Yes, but many devices can't play DRM'd stuff. According to the RIAA, there's no legal way to listen to "their" music on those.

Linking to a Geocities page....from Slashdot. How long did that last, 2 minutes or so?

It said there was a critical security flaw on the update notification. I think most people who care about security should've checked that out.

You mean have the publishers buy and sell used games themselves? Brilliant! If you can't beat them, join them.

It's not even just previous generation games. The only way to get many GCN, PS2, and Xbox games is used, since stores just don't sell them anymore.
I kind of liked the cutsceens in the Zelda games.

It's more of an IE being integrated with Windows problem, as many windows apps are more self-contained.

Well, not all the xbox games. Not now, maybe not ever. And backward compatability not being a selling point would be big news to Nintendo. ;)
