  1. Fund For DVD Freedom on Jon Johansen Indicted by the MPA(A) · · Score: 1

    I've started a fund for this. I won't be keeping any donations, they'll all be going to support Jon and others "accused" by the DVD-CCA.

  2. Sue Me Too on MPAA Sending Out DMCA Demand Letters · · Score: 1

    I in fact welcome the lawsuit (upon myself).

    They're claims are so funny that, hell, sue me! I'll get joy out of it!

    Claims you say? Well, they got a few, like we're making it possible to copy DVD's, which is false, or that it's illegal, in general, or that copy protection is good for the industry, and that copying is illegal (Which it's not, in fact).

    The file for DeCSS is at ftp://altair.dhs.org/pub , my email address is charles@nospam.altair.dhs.org (Just remove the "nospam." from that.

    If you DVD-CCA people email me, I'll give you my PO Box and you can tell me which court to go to!

    And don't forget to sue me, I'de really appreciate the entertainment!

    (thanks!)

  3. Why a Computer? on Linux Port for N64? · · Score: 1

    I'm asking "why a computer"

    It'd be a lot funner to use it standalone (those N64 chip's ought to be pretty powerful suckers!).

    I say a harddrive to the cartridge port and a keyboard hack as a controller. It's possible.

    And imagine running Quake on this :)

    Anyhow, I'm saying that it'd be cooler (but more difficult) to make it computer-independent.

    The machine is probably really power efficient as well.

    Oh, and please, something must be done about AC's.

  4. Still?! on New DVD Lawsuits Filed by the MPAA (UPDATED) · · Score: 1

    When will they give up. The amount of nerds in the world is far greater than theirs, they/we carry lots of power and skill.

    Warner brothers sees it, though:
    "We believe there is no economic incentive to hack this product. The cost of the blank is more expensive than the cost of the finished product"

    It's right.

    Of course, in our the last article about this (we "winning" the last trial), the boldest point was that You Can Still Copy and Play it Even When Encrypted.

    I can rip the DVD and email it to my friends! No decryption!

    Of course, the media is $40! But the movie is $10!

    Agh.. When will it end?!
