No, that I understand. I meant the thing about deleting stylesheets. What does that mean and how does it relate to lawsuits? vvv: Thansk! Grand Prize Winner has a new favorite as of 20:15 on Aug 8, 2017 |

Because the MPAA is not very discerning when it sends out DMCA take down requests, people were also distributing a tool removed CSS styling from websites that was intentionally named the same as the decryption tool in order to bait the MPAA into sending out bogus requests, thus increasing the negative publicity.

Flash Gordon Ramsay posted:I just rediscovered this in a closet. I used to play this for hours. Super deep necro at this point, but there are several recreations of this available as mobile apps. I bought an Android one for 3 bucks, and it's great! it even simulates the wear on the buttons over time.

WebDog posted:DIVX was another attempt where the disc were barcoded and read by the player which was hooked up to an internet account. In 1998. I think it might have been in this thread, but I posted a pic I took of a DivX copy of Deep Impact I saw at a Salvation Army, like last month or so. I'll see if I can find it. Edit: yep, it was a crosspost from the Thrift Store thread: Titus Sardonicus posted:

Collateral Damage posted:That little snippet of Perl code plus a decryption key (which was easy to find online after the XingDVD key was found) is all you need to remove the CSS encryption from a DVD. Under the DMCA, it's illegal to distribute tools that can be used to defeat anti-piracy measures such as content encryption, so technically the shirt is illegal. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeCSS#Legal_response

I did pick up Spawn: The Movie on Laserdisc that was in among the vinyl records for $3, even though I don't own a player. I love that stupid comic and movie. Not paying 299 ($40) for a Laserdisc though, even if it was Jurassic Park.

Spawn was fun. I wouldn't call it good, but it's fun. It's in the same realm as the Mortal Kombat movie and Road House. Not good, but fun as hell.

I had an HD-DVD player for my towel warmer/Xbox 360 and gave it to some guy for like a trash bag of trimmings and made some brownies. I watched Batman Begins once on my early-gen Westinghouse HD display model and that was it. The brownies were good, but not worth whatever the loving drive cost.

I still have my one and I wouldn't mind playing the packed in King Kong on HD-DVD but I cannot find it. ALso my PC has a super combo hybrid optical drive that does both HD-DVD and Bluray (never have used it for those functions).

I hadn't been drinking. Maybe I just wanted to give Lowtax some money. So do you need to reinstall Windows?

I bought the 360 HD-DVD drive and a couple of movies from someone in SA mart. This was maybe 10 years ago. Never got to watch anything on it cause it was loving broken. Like, clearly had fallen to the floor. Dented and hosed up. Guy said it worked when he sent it but he was a god damned liar. I still have a copy of Shaun Of The Dead on HD-DVD that may never be played. But yeah, gently caress that guy.

It has been years since I last 'd any software, but I remember some groups having really good keygen music, like the one below.

I'm sure keygens still exist in some capacity, but chances are they're just a simple Windows dialog window or something and don't really have that kind of charm your nostalgic for anymore. I think that kind of stuff and cracktros and whatnot just kind of merged with or evolved into the demoscene so in a way yeah people are still doing that kind of thing.

Some warez groups still have music playing in their installer while the game unpacks but it's not as cool because now it's just playing an MP3 using an MP3 library.

Shlomo Palestein posted:This rules; is there any way to actually download the mp3's? Hit ctrl-U (cmd-U on a Mac) to view the page source, then scroll down a bit to the great big list of links to the mp3s. In Chrome you should be able to do a right-click-save-as right from there; in Firefox you might need to remove the "view-source:" prefix from the link first to make it go straight to the mp3. Slurping down all of them is a fairly straightforward bit of scripting, at least if you're on Linux or Mac. But it looks like there's almost 1500 of them, so expect it to take a while, especially if you're being polite and not doing them all at once. e: Here, I'll make it easy. Get this from pastebin, save it as filelist.txt: https://pastebin.com/pE1ziZp0 Then do this, if you're on Linux or Mac: code:
I'm sure there's a way to do all this in Windows too, but I don't have a Windows box handy to bang it out on. Powered Descent has a new favorite as of 18:50 on Aug 23, 2017 |
