Or are you one of the people who needs labels on the mains power sockets telling you that if you stick a fork in each hole and hang onto them you might get a shock?
I'll be one person to agree with you, all that lead-in and no goods. Slashdot could have waited until there was something worthwhile to slashdot the site over.
Its not like this is a cool new embrionic tech like flourescent multilayer discs, that just must be mentioned immediately. Its a boorish intro leading straight to "the end", and nothing else available...
And no sympathetic statements at the end, like. "I want the last two minutes of my life back".
Egad, I had blocked out the notion that kids eat that as a core part of their daily breakfast...
Maybe my assumption that Micky Dees and Burger Trek ("whoosh." thunk) serve a large chunk of the human-flipped burgers consumed in my homeland is off the mark too.
The way they seem to write Celebrity Deathmatch, odds are a lighting rig controlled by Windows will go haywire, at which point it turn into one of those chat with frankenstein scenes.
The camera search will likely happen with great speed in an automated fashion.
Where I am, 911 operators tend to want confirmation on your location when you call (a picture on their screen of a wreck would streamline that a little).
And they tend to reach for specifics about what sort of medical attention will be needed, faxing a picture of so many bodies lying on the ground with chunks of windshield in them to the medics would prolly be a welcome thing.
And again it reduces the amount of back and forth between operator and caller.
You seem to think that it takes zero time to pull all important info out of a potentially hysterical 911 caller who may not be fully aware of the situation.
If a 911 operator can simply see that there are two cars mangled together and at least two bloody bodies on the ground, they can push the relevant call buttons that much faster.
Well, time never is important, and it could only hurt to have this extra info...
I think there is such thing as being realistically hacker-proof.
Hacks are typically caused by programs taking malicious input and doing something awe-inspiringly stupid with it. People can write secure code if they want to.
I call bullshit on hack-proofness being impossible.

Maybe we need a howto for that.
I want to really see how many people QT is "popular" with. Its popular with Apple and... ...?
Last I saw, the Windows player sucked on technical levels, AND it was naggy to boot.
I liked it more than "realmedia", but thats far from praise.

I'd rather flip burgers than write that kind of software, because at least I'd be contributing the greater good. People have to eat.
I dunno Mcgreasy foods aren't healthy, lowers the overall health/quality of life of the Mcpopulace, and can cause Mcdeath.
You'd also be backing up a Mcmonster of a corporation.
I find the open source GQview more appealing.

Quick explanation:
"Don't ask how I got this, but try it out, and don't tell the Mozilla foundation about this!"
"Nudge nudge, wink wink, know what I mean?
Yeah, its the full version and everything!"
"But does it support Ogg Theora?"
Favorite one I never used, Flashblock.
All flash is blocked, you click the ones you want to display. If only the (un)installing worked.
Blame Slashdot, reload often.

Are you asking to be Google-bombed?
I hope you prematurely explode.
No-no, go on.
In Soviet Russia, bolts prematurely explode you.
Further, I for one welcome our new Soviet exploding bolt overlords.
I actually like that idea MUCH better than deleting.
The ransom could merely be an apology (sincere or not) along side the expected "ha ha, very funny, now give me a decrypt key".
The scare of retaliation, but no true permanent data loss.
I'll cheer the malware writer on, I'll stop when a victim hunts him down and kills him for deleting something very important to them.
I've noticed the lack of a healthy fear about unknown binaries in some people, maybe this will help.

Ten women to each man.
"I'm so fucked"
That and the whole mine-shaft-gap issue.

That joke is old, buy a computer capable of more than 20 MIPS and try again.

One time I saw them blur the heck out of an image, explicitly as the middle part of pulling a detailed image out of 40-some pixels.
Skyfish sounds like a good name for now...
