Interesting. I still have a Honeywell Bull. I wonder if it's considered an antique yet... I used to play that game with the monochrome monkeys which threw bookerangs/bananas at eachother...
being a Russian-speaking American of Polish/Czech descent, and growing up in a Polish naighborhood in a major American city... I can say that some form of every slovak last name I could think of from my neighborhood is on that list... they may have well posted a by-name roster of the population of eastern Europe... wtf...
The freedom force, of course, would be those who don't believe that sharing media files is evil, and the popular morality would be those who think it's sad that Britteny Spears didn't get that new house in Hawaii that she wanted so much... like that. I want the net to be as it was 3 years ago. I'm afraid of change.
[RANT] It seems to me that everything about computers is becoming more restricted and less interesting... the gov't and ??AA are making the internet turn from fun, orderless anarchy, to something undesireable, organized, and governed by laws which only protect the already wealthy... I can't wait for war to break out on the net... you will be a soldier for one side, or the other. Either you will be governed by the stupid laws which are putting a chokehold on the net, or you will fight for the resistance (freedom forces). There are more people who are not programmed by popular morality than those who will follow blindely.
I keep seeing stories on the net about people who have very little going for them, and still manage to get raped by $big_corp in the courtrooms. There was that one fat kid who put his handle in the blaster... the 83 year old who was killed by the RIAA... I mean... come on! this crap is really bugging me.
when will it all end? Will it end when we finally lose freedom of expression online, and the net is used exclusively by the governments of the world, and by businesses... someone pulled the plug on the net, and a lot of the recreational value is draining fast.[/RANT]
Jeebux, people! Can't we all just get along...
Much of my interest in computers was sparked by Napster... then came Kazaa - which provided many learning tools to me (if you catch my drift).
What harm does it do to have some highschool and college kids get ahold of Macromedia (or any other brand) software... in the long run, it's better for the company. I'm sure some of the people who get pirated software will pursue careers using it, and in turn create future business for the company (they will have their claws in the poor kids!).
meh, whatever.

good times...
It looks like we are going to evolve backwards... everyone will be running back to IRC for their illegal needs.

not really a shock.
Or maybe they could use that supercomputer to calculate how much fuel it would take to launch these dreaded things into the sun.
Well... it's just a thought.
...for a George Bush joke!
I wonder if I could get one of those to use when I go biking or surfing...
I mean... GOOD RIDDANCE!
Does anyone know anything about the Mac warez scene?
I have a feeling it's going to be BOOMing after this goes through.
haha... against viruses... har-dee-har-har

Well... When you were here, did the locals sell you guys bootleg DVDs on the day of the movie's release?
