Showed them to a coworker, that was his first response. I sit among a large group of conspiracy theorists at my work.

Talk about being before his time. I wonder if he even thought about it when that whole Napster thing fired up?

It would never happen -- selective journalism and all -- but if those documents leaked were from an advertiser, I wonder if TechCrunch would have posted them.

I agree. In fact, I thought one of the reasons Apple was contesting for non-DRM songs was so users could be free to choose their media players. Sort of a... sign of good faith if you will. I guess I learned something today.

Ever the skeptic, I uploaded one of the Windows sample images (Water lilies.jpg) and it spit out... a pretty damn amazing representation of the image. Hats off to the creators, if this project fails it most certainly isn't a quality issue.

I'm sure someone can point out the situation for more, but I'm curious to the practical situation of where it truly matters.

Don't think so, but judging by the amount replies on this topic I think they may have achieved the goal of exposure at no cost all the same.

I'm curious how those hours stack up as well - you could burn through that pretty quick in almost any office on a static IP.

Using the z-index CSS property, a property for layering content on pages. At the top of their source before the actual page content starts, they've got a div at z-index: 999 which covers the whole content area, then the login appears at z-i

Does anyone have any further information on this? It's interesting to see that while most modern web servers handle this, most web clients do not or disable it be default. If this offers nothing other than a performance increase, where is t

It's an interesting idea, but the town has only 9,000 people. I wonder how this operation would work in a larger setting, or perhaps more importantly, how it is safeguarded from abuse. Also curious if there is an app for that... Edit: on se

I find it somewhat amusing that "Offline" appears so much, given that it's an always connected device... coverage pending, of course.

I can appreciate the desire to have simple, CSS based solutions for somewhat common requests -- though I would not consider gradient text a common request, just work with me here -- solving the issue by coming up with some elaborate solutio

I think you may want to reconsider your preferences among the food industry. Having a rich taste is one thing, but outright accusing less pricey foods as being lower quality is not exactly accurate. I can't imagine spending $150 a week on m

Definitely not alone. I read the majority of the article just to find out what it had to do with PHP at all. Apparently, in "PHP circles" they don't like object oriented design because PHP isn't Java. I'll go inform the Zend Framework and P

I've often wondered this myself, seeing as though when I was somewhat in the pirating scene the only game that ever even remotely resisted it was XIII (in hilarious ways, might I add). It always seemed like a waste of time and money that th

I think the author needs to have a look at the latest Prince of Persia. The elaborate acrobatics plus his suggested system are what make the game interesting. However, the other thing that needs to be remembered is that if you want to play

Every time I come across the whole pirate bay situation, I can't help but feel like it started as a joke that everyone took seriously and it spiraled out of control. Does anyone else feel like this or is it just me?
