Saying a lot, saying a little… who cares?
new highs
…or lows. barely has the HD format been released, and the Blu-ray been readied, than they’ve figured out a very basic way for piracy.
i wonder when they’ll realise. piracy can never be killed. ever. they might as well try to ensure its not a viable option, rather than encourage people to break their rules.

I’ve jumped in headfirst. Tweeting. Left, right and center. Yessirree Bob. Yada yada yada. Srsly. And now to repeat things I’ve heard before (for eons) but which have dawned on me as actually making a lot of sense. So yes, this post might be a bit dated for some of you. At first, I assumed

For a change, I decided to jot down the thoughts that were coming to me while I waded through month-old Reader items. Warning: It gets pretty long. [Yes, I actually have a set of Reader items that I ensure I catch up with daily, and another set that I’m sure I will always be behind

Google’s latest experiment – Buzz – has been launched to the world recently, with varying degrees of appreciation, hate, irritation and all the reactions that every new social idea is greeted with. Personally, it is a social media outlet/inlet that I can get on board with – seeing as how it integrates nicely into my
notes: what should be the real plan for the chrome os?

The world has been talking about the Google Chrome OS. We have people saying ‘next big huge thing‘, and obviously, ‘next big huge steaming pile of crap‘. Me, personally? I haven’t, and still don’t like the idea of Google having a browser on the market – it reeks too much of a company trying to

Somehow Personas is making me regress. Back to a time when I first started using Firebird 0.7, and hacked my way into theming it (the Firefox of those days did not look pretty – it looked like what it was: a quick, nifty version of the Mozilla Suite Browser). And then with Firefox 0.9, official

So I finally moved to Windows 7 on one of the machines I use regularly. It wasn’t without its share of weird-ass issues – I don’t think any M$ OS can be without its quirks. Not issues/problems, mind you. Quirks. I will try to update this based on what else I figure out in the

Step 1: Get notified that Adobe Flash Player must be updated on PC to overcome (one if its many) significant security flaws. Step 2: Be shown page to download and install latest version of Flash player on computer. Step 3: Click ‘Allow’ in Firefox. Step 4: Sudden pop-up of ‘Adobe Download Manager’, which distinctly shows
why you should never buy an HP laptop of any kind ever

Once upon a time I bought a laptop. [I know that start is not as great as 'Many many years ago, on a galaxy far far away..' but you can pretend those words appear on the line above if they mean that much to you.] Anyway. A laptop. An HP dv2500t. Yes, the very same

Piracy will not go away until they remove the reason for it…make stuff available to everyone for less…or for free eventually….the incentive will go away and that would kill it from inside…

Exactly, their efforts would be much better spent eslwhere. Implementing all kinds of copy prevention stuff makes things harder on everyone, but in the end it’s the average consumer who’s burdened by it as the pirates will find a way around it anyways.
And unless they’re giving it away for free, piracy will never stop. If nothing else, there will always be a group of people who, for whatever reason, aren’t willing to pay for things but wouldn’t mind having it anyways. But then, these people don’t actually detract from sales since they weren’t viable customers in the first place.
