  1. Re:BitTorrent on Google Accused of Benefitting From Piracy · · Score: 1

    There is also some speculation by admins that if your account does get disabled, your search results get nuked too.
    i don't think so ... 'SEARCHTERM filetype:torrent' is still a way 2 effective method of searching torrents
    for this to be true, i can't be certain tho but doing that usually gives torrentlinks to all the major players: TPB, isohunt, torrentspy, demonoid, torrentz, mininova, ...

    wow thank you for the site, it looks very promising
    i wonder if for a first generation voodoo banshee this: http://www.3dfxzone.it/files/download/video/3dfx/i nfo/BansheeDrive_v.V1.02.02h.txt/
    isn't the best and easiest option, i gave the card (PCI) away to a friend of mine because
    his agp slot is fried atm so i'll forward all of the info, but since i can't test it i guess when it is time
    for my friend to reformat his pc i'll go over there and help him with the trial and error game and hopefully find out which solution is best

    Anyway the former link contains a banshee driver package very similar to the original win95/98 package
    except maybe the GxpOGL part, i don't recall every seeing that before.

    i thank you hereby and will bookmark that link, Thanks!

    i can't seem to be able to fully use my 3dfx voodoo banshee in xp or 2000 tho.

    one little question:

    Client Web browsers know the public keys of all the Certificate Authorities and will complain if a site presents a certificate that isn't signed by a known CA.
    are these public keys of Certificate Authorities present in clear text in the source code of the
    client, if so it wouldn't be 2 hard to find them in the (gecko) firefox code (and forge them??? -- is this possible?)
    can someone please elaborate on this one since i really don't know squat about
    these certificates and would like to inform myself about them
  14. Google-fu on Google Video Becomes Search-Only, YouTube Holds Content · · Score: 2, Informative

    since google is the biggest web index in the world
    wouldn't SEARCHTERM ext:(avi | wmv | asf | mov | ogg | ogm | mp4 ) already
    give you the most video results on this big blue rock in the sky
    while searching for things like that is kinda unusual for many users
    google video could be a front-end for just that

    anyway i like this initiative, because it do think it won't be the easy front-end i just subscribed
    and i endorse it since youtube does a better job at providing web based video than video.google imo
    their flash player just kicks video.google's player 'mivonks': i never seem to be able to seek in video.google and it doesn't seem to ... keep downloading data when the player is paused

    the former is a necessary feature since recently my cpu cooler is seems to be dying so i have to pause regularly to lower the temps from time to time
    and the fact that it keeps downloading enables people with slow or irregular downloads to enjoy a movie as well.
    this could simply be the best of both worlds and that would be awesome

    same here this could be very handy indeed

    The adaptec web site lists the Adaptec RAID 1220SA SATA controller for $75.00, 2 SATA ports, 2 drives, RAID levels 0 and 1.
    sorry but i don't think anyone will buy that product
    if people buy cheap e-ide controllers or SATA controllers they usually
    do that for the intent of running lots of cheap big harddrives
