[2001-08-15 08:31:00] - ibm is stopping the sale of amd based pc's in the us.  apparently, you will still be able to buy them in asia, japan, and europe because "they show less brand-preference than western countries" -dave

[2001-08-15 08:24:00] - whoops, forgot to post it, here's the article: http://www.anandtech.com/chipsets/showdoc.html?i=1518 -dave

[2001-08-15 08:24:00] - incidentally, i hope intel succeeds in shooting itself in the foot since i'm all for amd -dave

[2001-08-15 08:23:00] - seeing as intel's ddr mobo solution isn't due out till first quarter 2002, i don't see why they are trying to stop via -dave

[2001-08-15 08:22:00] - finally, p4 coupled with ddr ram.  via bought s3 graphics and claims to have inherited a license to use intel's bus from that purchase. intel disagrees -dave

[2001-08-15 08:18:00] - mig: i don't get it. is his webpage just a listing of the emails he's gotten and his responses to them? -dave

[2001-08-14 21:36:00] - HA, ha ha ha... "Thank you, St. Peter. I look forward to hearing your response to the following: (  |  ) This is your ass. It is very fat." - aaron

[2001-08-14 18:34:00] - jdb: can't be to sure.  it seems that anyone can get offended by anything these days. - mig

[2001-08-14 18:32:00] - how could anyone be offended by anything as wonderful, beautiful, love-able, and all-inspiring as god's bread basket, the breasts? -jdb

[2001-08-14 18:30:00] - http://www.seanbaby.com/readers/christ.htm very hilarious.  don't go if you are offended by breasts, though. - mig

[2001-08-14 17:13:00] - http://news.cnet.com/news/0-1005-200-6873022.html?tag=tp_pr wonder if the "i love you" virus will get on aim.... - mig

[2001-08-14 17:05:00] - ugh.  fucking michael jordan.  make up your god damn mind! - mig

[2001-08-14 16:56:00] - very interesting and well-written article on michael jordan and his potential return to basketball: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A1117-2001Jul28.html -dave

[2001-08-14 16:29:00] - a: vinod is a fairly common indian name - vinnie

[2001-08-14 16:28:00] - hey, you even got the upper right button working again - vinnie

[2001-08-14 16:27:00] - well, screw, I wish i had checked my e-mail sooner - vinnie

[2001-08-14 15:36:00] - mig: well, both the equipment and the know-how -dave

[2001-08-14 15:36:00] - mig: i think our country is woefully open to computer warfare - ie. other countries shutting down our power grids and such. i think our govt. should have the tech. to stop them from doing so -dave

[2001-08-14 15:34:00] - mig: i'm all for invading the privacy of criminals - just gotta have a good idea that they really are criminals first -dave

[2001-08-14 15:33:00] - mig: i have no problem with the gadgets themselves. i just have a problem when they invade my privacy without a good reason ie search warrant or whatnot -dave

[2001-08-14 15:18:00] - dave:  i'm still skeptical about most of these "high-tech gadgets" that law enforcement is starting to use(e.g. the face-it software, carnivore, etc).  the "if you're innocent you have nothing to worry about" argument just doesn't sit well with me. - mig

[2001-08-14 15:12:00] - http://www.alternet.org/story.html?StoryID=11304

[2001-08-14 15:05:00] - in other words, every Democratic enclave will be wiped out leaving only the solid Republican heartland. Politically speaking for us conservatives it seems there's no downside to global warming. - random republican

[2001-08-14 15:04:00] - If I understand this global-warming business correctly, the danger is that the waters will rise and drown the whole of Massachusetts, New York City, Long Island, the California coast, and a few big cities on the Great Lakes -

[2001-08-14 15:02:00] - dewey: *Shudder* That brings up a really bad picture in my mind -paul

[2001-08-14 14:57:00] - paul: he he he - I set up a wish list at Amazon.com...  now to make myself a cam-whore... :) - dewey

[2001-08-14 14:17:00] - in fact, i think they should have the tech to counter criminals' tech. it's the using it without proper permission that i would be against, and i think that's what you are against as well -dave

[2001-08-14 14:16:00] - mig: i don't see anything wrong with that quote.  as long as they have the search warrant or wiretap permission or whatever, i don't have anything wrong with the fbi having sophisticated technology to catch criminals -dave

[2001-08-14 13:57:00] - Otakon was fun, if I had more time and more energy I might write a journal entry about it, but as is it looks like I'll be insanely busy until Sunday when I go back to Blacksburg. -- Xpovos

[2001-08-14 13:48:00] - oops, didn't mean to do that. - mig

[2001-08-14 13:48:00] - .  as i recall he had encrypted emails as well.  i'm pretty sure they count as "communication".  I'm pretty sure they would need something more than a search warrant to peek into someone's regular mail, so why should email be different. - mig

[2001-08-14 13:46:00] - it translate to me as, you're privacy be damned, we've got criminals to catch. - mig

[2001-08-14 13:45:00] - " Former law enforcement officials said that criminals are increasingly using sophisticated high technology, and that the government must have, within reason, the ability to keep one step ahead of them" i find that quote very disturbing. - mig

[2001-08-14 13:41:00] - I want to be at one with the monkeys! http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/xnyap/20010808/lo/gorilla_visit_1.html

[2001-08-14 13:30:00] - i guess one good thing about it is that our pilots get combat experience -dave

[2001-08-14 13:28:00] - we attack iraq...again: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A8959-2001Aug14.html -dave

[2001-08-14 13:24:00] - i'm pretty sure it does constitute wiretapping.  as i recall he had encrypted emails as well.  i'm pretty sure they count as "communication".  I'm pretty sure they would need something more than a search warrant to peek into someone's regular mail, so why should email be different. - mig

[2001-08-14 13:12:00] - the judge is leaning in favor of the mafia guy, but will let the fbi have one last chance of convincing him otherwise -dave

[2001-08-14 13:11:00] - i find it interesting that the fbi couldn't crack a $50 encryption software algorithm -dave

[2001-08-14 13:10:00] - the pw turned out to be "nds09813-050" his dad's prison identification number -dave

[2001-08-14 13:09:00] - the article says that they needed the keystroke logging because he had encrypted a file with a $50 software encryption program and they couldn't crack it without the pw: http://washtech.com/news/regulation/11866-1.html -dave

[2001-08-14 13:09:00] - fbi implanted keystroke logging tech onto a mafia head's computer.  it is now being debated whether the a search warrant was sufficient or whether they needed wiretap permission -dave

[2001-08-14 13:03:00] - mig: so you get the nice little ladder thing goin' -dave

[2001-08-14 13:02:00] - mig: apparently, you get some set amount of money for every policy you sell. what's more, if you get someone else to sell policies, you get a % of what they sell as well -dave

[2001-08-14 13:02:00] - mig: yeah, i read about that too. you know what's funny? i have a friend who sells the "pre-paid legal" policies -dave

[2001-08-14 12:32:00] - http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/zd/20010813/tc/court_posters_ids_can_stay_under_wraps_1.html score one for privacy. - mig

[2001-08-14 11:44:00] - well fuck.  i'm just no good at typing today. - mig

[2001-08-14 11:43:00] - ummm... i mean <b>laugh<b> not laught at code red!  haha! - mig

[2001-08-14 11:42:00] - code red. ha!  i laught at code red. - mig

[2001-08-14 11:29:00] - http://www.abcnews.go.com/sections/community/2020/chat_stossel0129.html

[2001-08-14 11:10:00] - mig: err, take what you can get -dave

[2001-08-14 11:07:00] - mig: hehe, yeah, oh well. you get what you can get i suppose -dave

[2001-08-14 10:56:00] - where was that judge when the mcdonald's coffee case came about? - mig

[2001-08-14 10:54:00] - dave:  nice to see that justice was finally served in the rambus case. - mig

[2001-08-14 10:43:00] - and you thought code red was bad... http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~nweaver/warhol.html -jdb

[2001-08-14 10:31:00] - but I want to see American Pie 2 - dewey

[2001-08-14 10:22:00] - dewey: party-pooper :-p -dave

[2001-08-14 09:56:00] - paul: I'm going to an Oriole's game tomorrow :-( - dewey

[2001-08-14 09:46:00] - paul: and yeah, the article pointed out that if ati had the driver staff of nvidia, the radeon 8500 would be on-par if not better than the gf3 -dave

[2001-08-14 09:45:00] - paul: i know what you mean about 3dfx and nvidia -dave

[2001-08-14 09:37:00] - dave: Not to mention that when they did a comparison of OSes that Windows98 yielded the best results most of the time? -paul

[2001-08-14 09:36:00] - dave: btw, did you read the anandtech preview for the new Radeon that pointed out how the ATI drivers worked horribly in Win2k and sometimes not at all? -paul

[2001-08-14 09:18:00] - dave: I don't agree with the whole Intel/AMD analogy because just reecently 3dfx was intel and Nvidia was AMD... -paul

[2001-08-14 09:11:00] - paul: the guy in the article was commenting on ati looking like amd did a few years ago -dave

[2001-08-14 09:10:00] - paul: if nvidia totally outclassed everyone, then their cards might start getting sloppy. nice to have competition. -dave

[2001-08-14 09:10:00] - paul: maybe, maybe not - for one, i think nvidia is having problem with nforce right now. and even if they do, it's heartening to see ati make a valiant effort at competition -dave

[2001-08-14 09:08:00] - Is anyone intereted in seeing American Pie 2 tomorrow afternoon? -paul

[2001-08-14 08:49:00] - dave: I think the new radeon is going to be just like it's older sibling. Too little too late. By the time it comes out Nvidia will no doubt have it's Geforce3 upgraded version available... -paul

[2001-08-14 08:48:00] - the release of netscape 6.1 sparked the arstechnica people to check their servers. 80% people who view their site use ie, about 10% use netscape, and the other 10% are misc. -dave

[2001-08-14 08:46:00] - incidentally, the judge ordered rambus to pay infineon's $7.1 million in legal fees (sheesh, i wanna be a lawyer) -dave

[2001-08-14 08:45:00] - the judge of the case wrote "The clear and convincing evidence shows that Rambus knew, or should have known, that its patent-infringement suit was baseless, unjustified and frivolous — one which reasonably intelligent people should have known would have no chance of success," -dave

[2001-08-14 08:44:00] - hehe, rambus is being sued by its shareholders because rambus didn't tell them that their patents for sdram were "fraudulently obtained" -dave

[2001-08-14 08:38:00] - incidentally, the radeon 8500 uses hyundai ddr-ram. what will be next? crucial making cars? -dave

[2001-08-14 08:37:00] - who woulda thought ati could come up with a card that has as much raw muscle as the geforce3? -dave

[2001-08-14 08:36:00] - coincidence that nvidia is releasing detonator 4 drivers now? definitely not. they were done long ago and are released to take thunder away from radeon 8500 -dave

[2001-08-14 08:35:00] - ati giving nvidia a run for its money! radeon 8500 vs geforce3!  http://www6.tomshardware.com/graphic/01q3/010814/index.html -dave

[2001-08-14 08:32:00] - aaron: Thanks for the suggestion. I also need to find a way to disable the auto-complete for internet explorer so people can't figure out I've been visiting porn sites ;-) -paul

[2001-08-14 02:05:00] - http://www.heartland.org/environment/jun01/elf.htm <-- article about the elf talk at tech (this past spring), composed by a vt student. -jdb

[2001-08-14 00:34:00] - A fun article! All news to me. Hey paul, you should also find a way to find a way to get rid of the auto-complete in the "run" dialog box... often another giveaway that you've been looking at porn - aaron

[2001-08-13 23:44:00] - http://www.villagevoice.com/issues/0132/nutter.php

[2001-08-13 23:19:00] - Ok, thanks everyone. I guess I'll look for some program to get rid of the stupid documents folder -paul

[2001-08-13 22:21:00] - i believe he has it automatically set up so that it redirctes to port 81. - mig

[2001-08-13 22:19:00] - adrian, are you back on port 80?  or is it just cause I am on a cox modem that I got to your page without the port 81 explicitly set? - dewey

[2001-08-13 22:13:00] - it would be nice if it had some sort of option where you could turn it off for certain applications. - mig

[2001-08-13 22:11:00] - a: this reminded me of your aim program --> http://www.activebuddy.com/ -jdb

[2001-08-13 22:11:00] - paul: also, there are various utilities available that automate the whole process of clearing out everything. -jdb

[2001-08-13 22:10:00] - paul: you can right click on start menu, and there is this option for clearing documents folder (i think). -jdb

[2001-08-13 22:04:00] - ... or you could just open lots of small 'documents', such as mp3z until the documents thing is filled with those. - mig

[2001-08-13 21:59:00] - jdb: Clearing history has to be done every time I watch porn then, not efficient enough ;-) Regedit sounds like what I want, can I get rid of the documents folder from my start menu using it? -paul

[2001-08-13 21:55:00] - you can remove items from the documents menu with regedit also. -jdb

[2001-08-13 21:54:00] - why not just clear history? -jdb

[2001-08-13 21:34:00] - Anyone know how to get the documents folder out of the start menu so people can't see that I have been watching porn lately? =-O -paul

[2001-08-13 20:33:00] - i dont' mind it in individual programs, but i find the start menu documents annoying. - mig

[2001-08-13 16:09:00] - I think the 'recent documents' feature is useful (as do most people, I imagine).  You just have to get used to using it as a resource.  2k also lets you browse your documents folder from that start menu folder.  - dewey

[2001-08-13 16:08:00] - I think the

[2001-08-13 15:59:00] - i wasn't that much of a fan of the "recent documents" feature that's in 98/NT. - mig

[2001-08-13 12:08:00] - paul: very true.  I never did see why people would want to even use the dating services.  Of course, I am an optomist and figure that someone will eventually come along... - dewey

[2001-08-10 16:33:00] - ... repair your armor :( - wolf

[2001-08-10 16:32:00] - be glad you don't have runewords :) they're so buggy right now... any runeword that has charges on it (smoke, for example) will reset the charges to some low number each time you enter a game. and since repair costs are insanely high, you can end up paying upwards of $100k each time you...

[2001-08-10 14:46:00] - miguel, it isn't the fact that people have it out for the iis server; it is that microsoft has such buggy code.  it's full of holes.  outlook allows the spread of love bug and other viruses and iis allows the spread of these code red viruses.  microsoft needs to stop sucking.  ~a

[2001-08-10 11:52:00] - Though having my assassin stuck in stunned position for 10 minutes before rebooting, or the lock-ups on the Bloody Foothills, and the insane difficulty of Diablo for any combat class are all good examples of bugs. -- Xpovos

[2001-08-10 11:13:00] - Yeah, I seriously want 1.09 for the rune words if nothing else.  On the whole, though the game doesn't seem to be -too- buggy.  I've found more in the expansion than I ever did in classic, but it's stable. -- Xpovos

[2001-08-09 12:40:00] - mig: no, I've noticed similar things in .asf videos too, though, so it's been around for a while. -- Xpovos

[2001-08-09 00:42:00] - the game naming system is ll[difficulty][number]/lounge, where difficulty is n, nm, or h and the number can be anything (we try to keep the in a series) - wolf

[2001-08-09 00:40:00] - dewey: you just type /join lurkerlounge at the chat prompt.  due to recent popularity at the lounge, though, you should excercise the same caution in lurker games as you would in public games - wolf

[2001-08-08 20:32:00] - only if they are specifically targeting me(in fact, i think they are required by law to do this anyway) - mig

[2001-08-08 20:14:00] - so news outlets should notify anyone that might be displayed on the tv screen? -jdb

[2001-08-08 20:12:00] - however, i would have a problem being used as a guiena pig by the state government without my knowledge and then have my picture plastered on the news again, without even at least notifying me. - mig

[2001-08-08 20:11:00] - what if i do it discretely? like i take photos of you without your prior approval or knowledge? -jdb

[2001-08-08 20:10:00] - if you want to just fuel it, i really wouldn't have a problem with it. - mig

[2001-08-08 20:06:00] - so... your "rights" can be violated for non-profit interests? for example, just fueling my miguel-fetish is ok? -jdb

[2001-08-08 19:58:00] - jdb: as long as you are not profiting from it(newspapers profit) - mig

[2001-08-08 19:19:00] - mig: do i have a right to publish photos of you (that i take)? -jdb

[2001-08-08 17:14:00] - second, that photo was sold to another magazine, once again, without his consent or knowledge.  and the us news wasn't kind enough to include the "not a wanted man" context. - mig

[2001-08-08 17:12:00] - first, his picture and used without his consent or his knowledge in the st petersburg times. - mig

[2001-08-08 17:12:00] - actually, there are some very creepy elements about this though. - mig

[2001-08-08 16:52:00] - turns out the computer was right and she was wrong. - dewey

[2001-08-08 16:52:00] - mig: there is nothing wrong with the software.  It captured a face, and identified it as not wanted.  The police exibited the software to the media and then the picture was put in a magazine. Then a zelous woman called the authorities claiming she could id the man better than the computer. - dewey

[2001-08-08 16:45:00] - http://www.sptimes.com/News/080801/TampaBay/_They_made_me_feel_li.shtml i was always skeptical of this face-it software.  now i know why. - mig

[2001-08-08 16:24:00] - wolf: Just out of curiosity (and if my connection at home decides to work again) how would I join the lurkerlounge channel?  I tried once before and it was empty.  maybe I did something wrong? - dewey

[2001-08-08 16:14:00] - oh yeah, i forgot about the personalized stuff - vinnie

[2001-08-08 15:47:00] - vinnie:  don't you remember the personalized flash animations?  i wrote a program in c++ that generated flash images dynamically.  i have also made some dumb animations and interfaces using flash 4.  ~a

[2001-08-08 15:36:00] - a: have you done anything with flash? - vinnie

[2001-08-08 15:35:00] - i think the install my brother gave me is hacked though. anyway, we'll see come 30 days - vinnie

[2001-08-08 15:26:00] - vinnie, flash didn't work for me after the trial ended.  i don't remember if i had to hack the registry to let me install it again or not.  i just know i have installed it many a time.  ~a

[2001-08-08 14:33:00] - also, was there was there a similar deal with the phantom menace? did they have a proposed title for ep 1 also? - vinnie

[2001-08-08 14:32:00] - wolf: i sure hope that's true. but why would they make a big announcement about the title if it wasn't what they were planning to do? - vinnie
