I read a review of the CurseFree in a newspaper a while ago, it seems like when it comes across an inapropriate word, it will write a more appropriate one on screen and mute the audio for a second or two. Now the newspaper said that it didn't work very well at all and produced results like "Rear out Fraisier" instead of "Butt out...", but "Penis Van Lesbian" ROFL. Children are going to hear these words anyway and it won't do anything to prevent things like innuendo which is much more common
Q2 03: Ramp up 486/20 Production (We own the market and there's nothing to stop us from selling this beast for $1000) and tout it as the Server CPU Of The Future, with support for things like the NEW 72pin SIMMS!
Yeah, but the Athlon needs a special board, and Celeron i810 boards with everything(video,sound,modem,) integrated go for about $100, these celerons can make a very cheap system which doesn't suck too much unless you want to play games or run linux...hmmm...what else would you want to do. If I had the money, I'd get an athlon, but to do so i'd need a new mobo $125 at least, and the cpu, while with the celeron 2, i'd just need a new cpu
Most DVD player software for windows requires that the video card is able to macrovision it's tv output(composite/s-video) before it will play to the tv out. Of course there are hacks for this, DVD Genie comes to mind, but this won't work out of the box...You could also use an exteranl scan converter(VGA->S-VHS/Composite) box, but the quality would sureley suffer...The dvd anywhere might work though, considering that IIRC macrovison works by supressing sync pulses or putting them out at the wrong intervals, the Composite->RF->Air->RF->Composite conversion might cause those sync pulses to be regenerated, i'm not sure on that though...anyway, with the Apex AD600 able to turn off macrovison and reigions for $160, this playstation 2 thing is no big deal
I'm sure that there's SOME station out there that will air it...
Yeah, like PAX TV(All peace, all the time) I'm sure a slot on that station is pretty cheap, and low profile enought not to arouse the MPAAs suspicion, unless we want that to happen, some sort of civil disobediance over dvd encryption while people are starving...BTW this whole thing is a joke, esp. the PAX TV part, they have a service called PAX NET, where your internet all runs 'through' them and little old ladies sit there approving all the web sites you go to(I'd love that job, imagine sitting there, letting junior go to get the pr0n he deserves, even though Jesus wouldn't want it that way)...haha...oh well i think the MPAA and RIAA suck, and should be gotten rid of
No, i really was doing important work on my website in that shot...and it looks like that on a regular day, tho occasionally i use the multiple desktops to seperate work from play...oh well, posting that here was a REAL bad idea, as my 486 server has been feeling the heat all night from people clicking on that *sighs*
I think gnome is less like MS Windows than KDE is. KDE feels almost like a windows clone, right down to its icons. With gnome, i feel more at home using it, I don't use it for anything but its panel for starting apps, see my desktop at trisomy21.dhs.org/screen.jpg it doesn't have much similarities with windows aside from using windows themselves to put programs in, but what other ways can we do this, people want graphical filemanagers, etc. but i like terminals better, so that's what i have...in Linux, i make the decsions on how my desktop looks, not microsoft
Yeah, the 2D of matrox cards is much better than anything. My friend's G400 32MB with a half-decent CTX 17" looks almost as good as my NEC FE700 on a Voodoo Banshee. Back when he had it on his S3 Virge, it was all blurry and whatnot. He plays games occasionally, so the G400's lack of 'amazing' frame rate is ok for him.
Even the cell phones, which were clearly Nokias, lacked the Nokia name on them. Uh, i'm sure that you can see the Nokia name quite clearly, as i remember freeze framing it on my dvd to see what model it is. I think its the 8660 but not silvery looking.
For the Apex AD600A, start unit with NO DISC, Wait for display to show NO DISC, PRESS SETUP on remote SETUP screen will open, go down onto menu item preferences, press STEP on the remote, press Track >>|, Track
I was refering to most of the pop music that sony would be selling on their sites anyway. I prefer entire cds anyway, but you should get a -1 troll anyway, dumb turd.
Keep in mind that just because Mitnick isn't allowed to use a computer, doesn't mean that he can't have someone else give him hardcopies
Actually, He can't use a computer by proxy either. Is there any reason he can't go to a secluded island with an OC48 line where he can do all the cracking he wants to? I'm sure there is, but its funny to think about. IMHO anybody who really is for this "FREE KEVIN" BS should really have their head checked. However, I'm all for things like decryption of DVDs, Music Piracy(Unless You really like the music), Borrowing of programs from friends, even fooling around with an old cell phone to listen to calls over the network. I think that fooling around with technology while breaking the law is OK, as long as you're learning. If you're learning about encryption systems while you run DeCSS, that's fine, but as for stealing credit card numbers, and large scale computer crime, they should be punished.
I've been waiting for something like this for a long time. How much would the transmitting hardware cost? I'd love to hook up my PC to one of these and start a radio station using mp3s that I have. Probably too expensive for a poor high school student though.
While the Quantum AV drives may not have ECC (I'm not sure). The reason that they are spec'd for Audio and Video work is because they never realign themselves during data transfer, which normal drives do every ~10min. This lack of realligning can lose data, if anyone remembers the Segate ST-255 that was in every 286 made, you would have to low level format it in winter and summer to make up for the expansion and contraction in the platters(It didn't reallign itself)
Good Ideas. What are these trolls running anyway, is it some kind of script that constantly replies to its own posts. What/. needs is a review for moderation feature, where people with a karma of say 10 or above could check off things that would be presented to people who had moderation status. These people really when it comes to ruining a message board. Sometimes ACs have usefull opinions, but most ACs are simply scripts and first posters.
It isn't impossible to buy a DAT deck today, they are just not marketed to consumers, I could walk into SamAsh(A musician's store) and have my pick of about 20 different DAT decks. They do start at about $US 600 though. The DAT drive is now used only in pro studios and the like, where technologies such as ADAT(20-bit recording on SVHS tape) and Hard Disk recording are quickly overtaking the DAT deck. Also 8mm tapes are also used in backup drives, but you don't see camcorders failing

While haveing games in linux is a Good Thing, and it has a benifit for the community, it really doesn't help position linux for use as a buisiness client. What linux really needs is a commercial quality, stable(sorry wordperfect), and compatible office suite. Microsoft is not a likeley cantidate for porting office over to linux, but what about lotus, they have already released domino server, how about a complete office suite, notes client, and web browser that work and look good together. This is what linux needs to compete against the likes of NT. But, hey if I can use my system to play Simcity 3k instead of working, I'm all for it.
Dosemu is now pretty stable, and should be able to run most well-behaved dos applications. As long as they don't do much direct hardware access or need fancy graphical modes, dosemu should work fine for almost all older dos based programs, and even a few games.
I get out of school @ 3PM EST and I'm near Philadelphia, is there an admission fee to this thing, can only importatnt people get in. Can I get to New York in time?
This is a bit off topic, and sort of a rant on licensing, but, I'll say it anyway
Aggreed, Why should we pick at what license a company decides to use for their product, it is their decision, not our's. If I were making the product, sure I'd use GPL, but is Apple or Netscape wrong for making their own license, of course not. It's not our software that is being open sourced, it is the company that wrote it's software. The GPL may be an excellent license, but I say that we should be thankful that the open source process gets any recoignition at all from companies.

I'm going to rewrite the entire odyssey in perl and submit it, or maybe just the killing scene. That would be fun.
Not really considering that most cds only have about 2 good songs, but its still the same price as a cd single, which you could rip too.

1. They will probably change the graphics routines to run on X
2. Yes, in SC2000 the maps were compatible between all versions
