That's my whole point mister. If the BIOS is closed source it would be 10x more difficult to hack your way to authentication but with open source BIOS it is just a matter of simple soldering. As long as you have your soldering tools, no DRM stuff could stop you.
Hell, i have even tried authenticating banned cellphone units in GSM networks, i guess the process is just more or like the same... anyway, until i could lay my hands on a DRMed system, i couldn't be 100% sure.
Well, it doesnt matter. It is just simply a matter of bypassing some logics on the DRM routine and voila! the machine would just authenticate itself as secure.
No problem there my boy...
So lets throw away our DRM fears for now. As long as we could see the code and reflash our BIOSes we can still use our machine any way we want.
here n dis crappy country dat im livin' namely d philippines, i cud buy all d latest hits on cd for US$0.50 or a compilation of all d hits for this month in MP3 format for US$2.00...

the parent just want to point out that no matter what the UN decide it would be good as shit in reference to the US policies. ie the US doesnt give a shit to the decisions of UN. if d UN tells d the US do this and the US doesnt comply, the UN could not a single bit. so the UN is worthless as viewed by the US govt...
cant we make a software that is really designed for piracy? ie: users are really anonymous? i am afraid that the tentacles of RIAA might reach here in my country...
yeep, I agree. In d past having personal websites signifies advance tech knowledge. nowadays when site creation is somewhat automated der r lots of bad personal websites out there that it gets the mystery of creating one;->
Corruption is just on the same level as urs n d USA. It's just that the third world has set aside great amounts of $$$ for their debt servicing for usurous rates of loans granted by IMF-WB-USA.
That plus corruption leaves no hope for the 3rd world...

Anybody knows how to run Wine on Mandrake 10? pthread seems to hang up on Mandrake 9.2 or 10 but no problem on Slackware 9.1.
Maybe they would better combine and create a development model like GNU/Windows...
See my sig...
