The whole lying about the accomplishment aside, I've always said that even if you don't find what you're looking for, humanity is better off for knowing all the other ways of not accomplishing that task vs. no research done at all.
I have two DVRs, one windows, one linux, and I still usually just download TV shows I wasn't home to watch. I've always wondered about the legality of it, since I have the ability, and the show is broadcast on free channels, does it matter if I record it or someone else? I know the broadcasters stance, I didn't watch the commercials, so they want more money than they already got for the advertising revenues...
Just keep thinking of those adds before movies of how downloading hurts the little guys, carpenters, etc, while hollywood still somehow managers to pay more per day than I make in a year to the actors, execs, etc.
With this big of a discount, how long before people buy in bulk to ship and sell overseas, or even just sell the number online, and let you worry about the media? I'm willing to bet M$ has the COA numbers regionalized, and the good ole' WGA won't activate if your number is one set for china and you IP isn't.
once works no longer has cost, will dell lower the prices of the machines? I'm guessing they had to pay some sort of fee for works, even if only a few bucks.
And i will works had it's uses. More people have it then most think, since it's loaded crapware and they don't have anything better. I'm willing to be more junior high reports get in on works than anything else, shame the schools don't hand out open office cd's... now there's a thought, start a foundation to provide open office cd's to schools for free, they hand them out the students = market proliferation. OO may not be 100%, but to push FOSS, i'd donate to a charity or foundation. Would be pretty easy to setup a foundation now that I think about it, only cost would be a website , cd manufacturing and shipping, could use paypal and once you hit X amount of cash, place an order to have the CD's made, ship to school districts.
I like the part about IE6 known broken, no other comments : ) Kinda curious about IE7 working better than IE6, would have figured it would be the other way around. Is IE7 more flexible with code that 6?
"Slashdot endorses Firefox by breaking IE6 functionality on thier site, news at 11." j/k.
Course something else that didn't come to mind. Judge may decide to throw the case out, but by pressing charges and making an issue of it, the theater is waisting tax payer money for a court hearing.
"If videotaping in a movie theater is illegal, and if that is what occurred in this instance - and indeed, the person in question admits just that - then why is this acceptable? Why should the theater decide between "good and bad stealing"?
Isn't that for a judge and jury to decide?"
The judge and jury do decide, all the theater gets to decide is if they want to press charges or not. Pretty much agree with everything else in the whole 'in a perfect world' sense. Course I think most people see the maximum fine and think the worst, doesn't mean the judge will give than, more often than not they don't, they may just issue a court order forbiding that person to ever bring a recording device on that theater's property again... there goes your camera phone.
they partnered with the FBI and getting this movie will put spyware on your machine and inform the MPAA and RIAA...
seriously tho. All I want to know on the subject i've already read here and other sites. People most comfortable with downloading movies using torrents have better movies to get and I would guess aren't that interested. Only thing I would even be remotely interested in is some of the qoutes from the mpaa guy just to see one individual's scewed opinions, but I'd rather have it in text format.
Last time a spammer got sent to jail, someone had the great idea of sending all the viagra and cialis they'd been selling to thier cellmates. We need to get a cellmate's name and address once he's put in, I'd be willing to visit an online pharamcy and order some as a gift package : )
How many universities and businesses have legacy servers online that won't convert to 6 due to OS not supporting it? I know you can tunnel, and there's always routers, but the cost could add up. How do you put a price on these machines being completely phased out... course it would be nice to have more IP's.... dilema.
It's for lack of social skills. Smarter ones may choose the 'safe' approach, but a high percentage didn't have the social skills to pull it off (now there's a reverse pun) back at my old highschool.
Yes we voted for them, but we are a mindless mob, who votes for whatever we are told by the talking box... And what does the talking box tell us? why whatever the person with the deepest pockets says of course. It's a shame there's never a good choice at the ballots, just a bought and paid for republican, and a bought and paid for democrat, take your pick. I'd love to win an office with no illusion of being re-elected, so that I could do what I felt was right vs. what I felt would get be re-elected via large contributions to afford the advertising.
and I understand that what I feel is right won't be what someone else feels is right... shame a single vote doesn't count for much anyway, either in elections, or congressional votes.
I didn't RTFA, but is there an option to make the onboard flash read only? Would love one for my mom, put M$ 2000 on it so she can run her school software, and use the SD memory for swap, temp profile settings, etc. Would be great, and every time she reboots no viruses, malware, or other crap, she never installs anything anyway.
As far as an M$ killer goes, I didn't see any comments mentioning it being carried by a major retailer with actual storefront. ASUS has always been pretty high on my list, but until it's in walmart, bestbuy, CC, officedepot, etc, it won't get that wide of coverage.
Just agreeing with other comments, a larger screen would be nicer, maybe go up to to 14" and as stated in earlier posts, use the extra space for a larger keyboard, and enclosed bays to store thumb drives, larger usb devices like tv tuners, audio decoders, etc.
Yes, I will either paint or buy a tux key.
Every TV I buy these days as analog monitor inputs, I'm getting one the bedroom, I'd been thinking of a water cooling system for the machine in there, but this would be soo much better.
Just my two coppers, now hand me my vorpal sword, i've work to do in the server room.
From what I've heard from a friend from NJ, you do have to pay to go to the beach. Space is very limited, too many people, too little parking, and the local government wanted extra income. I've seen other parks you had to pay for, guess this isn't any different. Glad it's not the case in most of the rest of the country.
If we take these rfid tags and throw them in the water, will a lifegaurd come save it? Technology vs. the undertow, and all i want is pam anderson to save me
Sad part is i was being serious when I posted (didn't grow up with a tv, and they didn't do books...). Thanks to an infusion of caffeine and re-reading, no longer thinking movies are being made here...
I love being able to pick up my phone while half asleep and use it without opening my eyes... the handycapped / disabled is one market apple will never do well in so long as they are anti-button.
I thought the plot for HL was awesome, then I later realized that while strong as far as FPS goes, they could have fed me anything they wanted, i was just drooling over the graphics when played on my canopus daughterboard... 12 megs of video goodness ; )
I play FPS to shoot stuff and see great graphics while doing it, plot is optional... less plot, the better the engine / graphics better be, likewise the better the plot the more I can ignore from crappy graphics and gameplay, but seriously, what kind of plot can you expect from a 3d choose your own adventure shoot'em up?

Xmas episode, Youtube [youtube.com]; Planet Family Guy [planet-familyguy.com]
And for some reason while searching for those, i kept hearing the guy in the cheese commercial in my mind... "Behold... the power of Google..."
I loved the episode where agents of ABC stormed the house and shot up the VCR when Peter tried to record an NFL game.
I wonder what a whois on one of these sites would show...
Are they named Tucker and Private Donut? You team killing ...
