EULA is feudalism.

They should change the EULA to say that when you modify the product beyond it’s manufacturers intended use, you give up warranty.

It’s the same as using a cellphone to hammer some nails. If it’s broken you shouldn’t get a new one for free.

But when i buy the phone, every little piece is MINE and not some license granted to my by my dollars entering their pocket.

When you buy food you don’t buy a license to consume it. It becomes your right.

If the video portion consists only of Cory standing at a podium, I don’t need to see the video – I know what he looks like.

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.2.10) Gecko/20100914 SUSE/3.6.10-30.2 Firefox/3.6.10

Oddly it also locks up on windows 7. Must be Firefox 3.6.12 and flash?

Решил поделится своей проблемой. Я ищу кондиционеры. Скоро лето, я живу на последнем этаже, на южной стороне дома. Летом такая погода, что спасает лишь ледяной душ несколько раз в день. Посоветуйте который кондиционер оптимально мало жрет энергии ? А то у меня и куллер стоит дома + 3 компа…За электричество огого выходит :( На yourconditions.ru спрашивал, однако они что-то невразумительное сказали, я ничего и не понял.
В общем хочется узнать мнение народа! ) Жду!

I just became a member of this forum

Great work forum crew!

Yesterday I read that there is a cure for diabetes on http://www.healthcaredaily.org
Is this way of curing diabetes mentioned actually true, If so I should have found out earlier! The website http://www.healthcaredaily.org looks legit

Could you someone tell me if this healthcare information is for real?

Thanks a lot

Loolillefly

It used to be all whacky stuff, but lately its been political bullshit and drm. Thats it. I get tired of reading the same stuff everyday. I will say this though: If you’re reading boingboing, you need to be reading xenisucks.com too.

It’s not that i have a problem with the content on boingboing, i have a problem with it not being consistent. If i wanted to hear about DRM, i would go to more blogs that talk about that stuff. If i wanted to hear about how republicans are ruining the world, i would go to a liberal/democratic blog. Frequently, i just want to see some crazy stuff, like the image of Mary in the grilled cheese. THAT is what boinboing bills itself as – a directory of wonderful things. Not a directory of DRM and liberal rants. Free speech, yes. But please, organize it better.

Not only is the subject matter of great interest, but the guy knows how to speak and get his points across very well. (cool watch)

I’ve also been reading boingboing alot lately. It’s a gear place.

I’m also becoming more and more concerned about topics like DRM and the other points Mr. Doctorow touched on.

Thank you Hackaday!

SO, here is what i did. i booted up my trusty old hax0red xbox… then i proceded to load XBMC from the softmod menu… then i surfed through my workgroup shares and FINALLY PLAYED THE VIDEO! AWESOME! this is the perfect solution for this considering the topis of the presentation! not to mention i got to watch it on a 27″ tv in near/better than dvd quality. thanks for this vid!

hehe, inline videos are nice(sofar only been 2 but hey, if you wanna see more than make ur own hacks!)

(1.24 ghz/1.5 gig of ram/xp enterprise/newest version of quicktime from apple) i would love to see this presentation, but! the quality looks amazing though. i think the only way i could watch it is to burn it to a dvd and play it in my standalone dvd player, short of buying a new coputer
