I feel a little sorry for the guy truth be told. Read his page, 300 euro's, 3000 hours and a keyboard that advertised as a WoW keyboard, and he gets banneed with no warnings. All e-mails get exactly the same one line response, and all posts on the forums are removed.
Bliazzard are wankers, lets all play Warcraft 2. They never banned me from that...
Isn't this exactly what the scientists studying large-scale fusion (not coldfusion) have been waiting for? No more of that messy plasma being superheated...
Just another point for the group of people who say: DRM won't work.
People use iTunes because it was new, and innovative, and they all had iPods. Now people have a bigger choice of good MP3 players, and places offering DRM encumbered music. The novelty will wear off, and people will again slowly realize that they can get the same quaility music with no DRM for free.
Forget this "you'll get a brain tumour and die" from using you're mobile too much.
For years i have kept my mobile in my pockets, inches away from my nads! Day after day, i get text messages, calls, wap whatever. Point is, if i beleive the hype, then i'm going to have to consider a number of rather terrifying possibilities..
Surely it is just as possible for a malicious worker to use netbios and find these documents in the same way the iPod would (perhaps even recreate the "business" algorithm that selects the files for Windows)
Check the bleeding edge CVS, bugfixes are going on daily.
I will admit that it is easier to crash Firefox than IE6 (shy chars for example, U+00AD scares the shit out the lastest RC) But pretty much all of these problems aren't security risks, but mere annoyances that get patched when somebody cares enough about them.
WOW!! The Director must think Christmas has come early!
He makes a film about the MPAA (Basically slagging off their ratings system), and just as the Sundance film fest arrives, the MPAA show themselves to be MASSIVE hypocrites for copying his DVD:D Classic!
Fucking hilarious if you ask me. Long ago I'd stopped laughing about the MPAA/RIAA situation, turning instead to just plain disbelief. Now I'm back to laughing:D.
I'm talking about WinXP. On a VERY low end Celeron, Firefox preforms SO much better than IE6 it's funny.
IE7 can handle around 16 tabs on this system. Firefox was slow, but workable with around 26 (Then i stopped, cos i had work to do)
IE6 can have more windows open than firefox (Not surprising) but firefox tabs vs ie6 windows. Firefox wins again.
So basically IE7 is going to be Firefox. But slower, less pretty, difficult to configure, insecure, and of course the most widely used.
Doesn't this sound stupid when you see it written down?
Have they solved spam? Have they fuck.
To test this theory, I left a dummy open SMTP relay on a windows box with 1 static IP, no listings on google, no PTR on the IP. Nothing.
After 48 hours over 50,000 e-mail would have been successfully delivered (To either bounce back, or annoy somebody)
A stupid claim at the time, now obviously so.
Clearly a post made by an android deviod of all love and emotion.
I mean FFS are people here really that sad? Computing is great, but here, its taken WAY to far.
You have to hand it to that man.
He starts a small IT company, which turns into Apple. Score 1 Jobs.
Microsoft Steal OS, Apple fucked, Windows releases. Jobs decides to do something else. Leaves apple
Forms Pixar. Makes millions.
Jobs decideds that he misses apple, so goes back (obviously at his old position). Makes iMac, iBook, iPod. Makes millions.
Everything he touches turns to gold (Once Gates got there before Jobs, and melted down Job's gold and turned it into Windows.)
two articles, plugging the same peice of non existant software, and the mods turned down my "Bill's date with Jacko's operating system" masterpeice?? I cry foul!
"There are 3 forms of deciet in this world. Lies, damn Lies, and statistics"
Bullshit. This is coming of the same site that tells me that 90% of ICT professionals in this world are Men.
Give me a good lie, and i've got statistics to back it up.
Yeah, we are. Every now and again i stumble accross another unfortunate misled user on IRC panicing...
f00l: Hey, i was hearing about this new technology thats the minitary is making is going to intercept wireless signals
me: So?
f00l: So what if iranian wi-fi pirates get hold of one?
me: Um?
f00l: Yeah, some guy on slashdot said that they're growing as an organisation. me: Ok, so? f00l: SO? So somebody is proabaly sitting outside in a brand new (but dodgy looking) BMW. Tracking my evey move by American developed spy tools, this explains so much, Why the mail-man has been coming late, What i thought was a dog tearing up my rubbish bags, its now much more likely to be hydro-phobic alien people, brought here to maintain a close eye (after all, wikipedia says they do have over 327.8) upon me.
me:...
f00l: And my e-mail? By now there's probably another foreign terrorist watching all of the people i've send e-mail too! And they've probably made it so that if my bandwidth consumption falls, below 50kb/s, then WERE ALL GONNA DIE!!!!!
OK, so not quite this insane.
But nowadays we're focusing so much on what the "bad people" could do to us. We spent very little time looking at weather these "bad people" actually exist, and weather they could care less about spending time and money terrorisimg the general public.
Slashdot Mirror
I've had this for a few days now, I use personalized homepage UK fyi.
Its a serious question, it seems like there is some kind of bad algo generating these topic titles!
its a fucking warzone, everything is killing everything else. How about "Microsoft to construct iPod/DS/PSP hybrid"???

DRM: the self defeating prophacy.

I am both sickened and disgusted that these are being aired first by an American station. Die fuckers die.
Surely it is just as possible for a malicious worker to use netbios and find these documents in the same way the iPod would (perhaps even recreate the "business" algorithm that selects the files for Windows)
So really, this is something of a sideline...
Terrified though I am, I feel phishing would be more effective, if half the phishers had passed their high school grammer.
Good. Next!
Yeah, that would be nice.

No. It isn't. And i find the fact that more than one slashdotter relates SPARC architechture to their sex life, upsetting (but not surprising)

Mr Gates! Mr Gates!
I've come up with this great idea, why don't we offer Music up for buy and download!!
What a good idea! Get the patents people in here! Tomorrow, we 'invent' legal music downloads! I wonder why nobody else has done it before...
3 weeks later Apple were successfully sued for millions on the grounds of a patent violation...
History repeats itself, and minutes are written by those who won.

I personally don't like any of these RSS aggregators, Firefox's livebookmark feature is quicker and easier.
