yep, was just talking with a friend the other day about how irritating it is trying to find decent flight info, and how google should clean up the competition.

which is why if your on a laptop running from battery it doesn't start the distributed computing client.

yep and while you are on that forum you can read the threads about this "new development" which were started over half a year ago and have the devs openly discussing it with the community.

i havnt used antivirus software in over 7 years now, simple common sense with emails and completely disabling every "feature" in IE that i can, then proceeding to not use it at all for browsing has resulted in a virus free computer.

i see antivirus as the computer equivalent of over the top health and safety policies. They make stupid lazy people feel safe but dont actualy achieve much.

the game was ok, it suffered a variety of issues, but the networking was a flat out failure.

i got my copy refunded after wasting 2 weeks trying to get anything resembling a $50 game worth of network gameplay.

people shouldnt be charged to participate in alpha testing.

better to fine anyone that calls a knife a "weapon".

its a potentialy dangerous tool if missused.

atm kids in the uk are raised being told knives are for crime / stabbing ppl so your not allowed to have one.

so of course when they get one what do they think its for?

most ppl raised with knifes being an every day tool treat them with respect as they have cut themselves in the past and have an understanding and respect of the harm they can do.

given the history of mistakes in evidence / accusations has anyone considered making a spoofing app that just sits there pretending to transfer copyrighted works ?

low traffic use but reporting back to the trackers/peers that it has downloaded a lot.
even better if it can attempt to spoof IP's as well, sometimes effectively, sometimes not. just to make sure there is a very real an provable occurance of this happening so it can be used in defence. always the highest profile movies / music at the time to get the attention of mediasentry.

anyone running it would have an element of confusion to use in their defence if accused, and also anyone else being accused will be able to point at it saying well how can you prove it wasnt someone else running this that spoofed my IP?

would sending them a phot of a desk large enough to hold more than 2 pieces of A4 help?

seriously "multiple workspaces" essentialy equates to being able to switch between 2 tasks, as far as im aware humans dont spontaneously combust if they dont finish a task they have started
