I was at GI when DVD was conceived, when cable modems were conceived by GI and Motorola, and when HDTV broadcast standards were created. That was from '94 through '96 and the HDTV guru was Woo Paik, who now leads LG. Doing what exactly? As if you could understand. You're the biggest asshole name dropper I've ever seen on USENET. Really... Sun, GI, LL Labs, Nasa blah blah blah YES REALLY!!!! You worked everywhere and did everything, yeah right. Did I say that? Ever? Pretty much the way you make it sound. Ant time anything comes up, you only have some superficial knowledge of it or you write something that is so far outside your normal language skills that it sounds like a cut-and-paste job to me. Just because I call retards like you by the names you deserve, doesn't mean that I cannot write eloquently when I need to or am employed to do so. I'm talking about your technical contributions, not your name calling. I bet you're nothing but a line tech that takes some voltage measurements and tweaks pots. Sounds like projection to me. Sounds like the picture you've painted for us. Your **** attitude likely gets you fired time and again, and that's why you've worked everywhere. More projection. I never said anything about "working everywhere". When I was a kid, I worked in manual jobs, many of which were semi-skilled. Now, I work in electronics, and have had a few jobs.All of which were skilled. The stainless steel polishing, and engine building was during that time, as well as a stint repairing pinball, and upright video games (pre-Knoxville worlds fair)and delivering them, jukeboxes, pool table, etc. The engine building was for a very low wage, and I took a better job. I have worked in IR thermometry, and in Television (satellite uplink encoders), and in HV (the LLNL, LANL, NOAA, etc stuff.). Now, I work in satellite again. The IR job ended because members of my family were murdered, and I went back to Cincinnati to be with my family, and WAS going to drop out of a hospital ceiling onto the ******* that did and kill him before the door guard cop could stop me. My family stopped me from doing that. The GI job was temporary, only lasting two years, and we knew that when we were hired. The HV job, despite surviving 911, still had troubles, and there were lay-offs. My current employer was glad to hire me as I get the job done! You've done everything because you keep getting shuffled around like so much dead weight. I haven't moved around much. I had a work associate previously whose husband took a different job every two years, no matter what. Because he liked it that way. I know your type all too well. You don't know a goddamned thing, yet you keep calling me a liar, Well if the shoe fits...... despite the fact that you have done nothing but lie every time you said it. Your ****ing "know your type" claim is even a ****ing lie, since not only do you not know my type, but you don't know me at all, dip****. Every company has one. Believe me, I know your type. So **** you again, little boy. You know ****ing NOTHING! You are a gov tit sucking twit. WTF are you talking about. gov tit sucking twit? Living in FL? Do you even know one adversary from another any more? So, you finally admit that you have been being an adversary toward me. Funny, my perspective hasn't changed much, since I already knew that about you. Your adversarys, can't you comprehend. Knew what about me? Maybe you should make yourself a score card or something so you can keep track of all the people fight with. Maybe you should stop calling your betters liars. My betters? Now that is funny. |

When you make only three of something (HV supplies, and they beat the **** out of two of them, and send the third one up in the balloon, and it is NOT an off the shelf item, it gets VERY personal. So yes, MY gear. MY HAND ASSEMBLED, BENCH TESTED AND CHARACTERIZED BY ME, CERTIFIED COMPLIANT BY ME. HV supplies. Custom orders are like that, as was the half rack 50kV, 250W supply we made for one of the two national labs I mentioned. Hell, even the normal production run groups we made for SAIC to go into the Geiger counters that are used on Nuke subs and ships were VERY personal devices. ALL of my **** works top notch. Highest specs in the entire industry. 0.000006% ripple on an X-ray supply used for looking at buried gas pipes in city streets, and new production pipes in the factories where they get made. The better the DC, the better the X-ray flux, the better the contrast ratio. Oh I bet it is top notch. You, on the other hand, have a system rampant with viruses, and a ****y little boy attitude that nobody else in the world could possibly have escaped such attacks. When in fact, most companies do NOT have problems with viruses. I don't have viruses, my customers get them. I don't work for a company, but I have one as a customer. Guess what, they don't really have problems with viruses either. It's people like you that do. Grow the **** up. I have done what I have done, and all your "liar liar" baby bull**** cannot change that fact. Same here dumb ass. I've done just as much as you if not more. I even got an MSM and CM when I was in the service, what about you? ;-) |

The only thing faster at that time was FDDI, but far more expensive. The TCNS was at 100Mb/s then. MeatTurd... **** off. |

It's a basic part of copyright law, not some technical aspect of broadcasting. Try this one to see where it applies to your current viewpoint. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital..._Copyright_Act You just don't get it. I'm going to explain this once, so please try to read it thoroughly. The DMCA is the result of a concerted effort by big business lobbying to make it a federal offense for you to try and make "fair use" of a "protected" piece of media. Not protected as in covered by copyrights specifically, but protected as in encrypted. If you break the encryption, you break the law. It takes the "fair use" issue right out of the picture. It's actually pretty clever on their part IMO, getting the federal gov to prop up their buggy whip business like that. Unfortunately for them though, as pieces of it are tested in court, things aren't going so well. Lexmark tried to use this BS against a company making knock-off printer cartridges. It didn't fly, they lost in court. Seems that it was "fair" to break their measly protection (no real protection at all, but that isn't really the issue) in order to manufacture a compatible product. Real patent/copyright law won out. Hopefully more of the same will occur. HDMI and HDCP aren't required by law, they are required by the RIAA and MPAA. The DMCA law requires that you don't try and break whatever sort of cheezy protection scheme they implement, even if it's as simple as ignoring a single bit flag in a broadcast stream. You see, ignoring the broadcast flag makes it illegal to record the show, it's not a real copyright law violation per se. There's a fine line of distinction here, please try to understand it. Copying a DVD to a hard disk is completely legal under all constitutionaly proven copyright law, using DECSS to unlock it is not under DMCA. So the only point I've been trying to make all along is that real copyright laws won't decide what you can do or not do, hollywood will on a whim by chosing whether to "lock" something or not. I'm betting that everything gets locked. If you don't think money will buy the RIAA whatever they want, think back at the congressmen (as in plural) that tried to introduce legislation making it legal for the RIAA to actively attack filesharing computers that they "believed" were serving up copyrighted material without any proof whatsoever and in complete conflict with all current legislation regarding hacking. I don't want to steal anything, I just want to use what is rightfully mine to use the way I see fit. |

The remarkable thing is, of the 100 posts that appeared in this thread in the last few hours, and by the looks of it, about 50 of them are MassiveWrong and the other 50 are yours. My killfile sense is tingling, I'm afraid to say. But your bent retardation is showing much much more. Your dopey ****tard picture tells the whole story though. |

I wonder how it was allower to enter production. one possible scenario is that they replaced the LCD with a cheaper one at some stage (after the design was complete) and the cheap one isn't exaclty compatible with the firmware but is close-enough that it sort-of works. Your guesses are pretty ****ing retarded. It has nothing to do with the display, and EVERYTHING to do with the program that was created for the machine's operation. |

... Thanks for the link. Unless I missed something, it won't capture HD quality signals. I think you're correct there. AFAIK, there are no (and never will be) any HD capture cards that have analog inputs. I want to believe it's just a matter of time, but you might be right. :-( MP seems to have trouble understanding my point here. He's part of the problem -- he's using reasoning typical of, e.g., the anti-gun lobby: People *do* break the law with certain devices (guns/HD video capture cards/etc.), therefore *the devices themselves* should be made unavailable, even though such devices have plenty of legitimate uses. |

I want to believe it's just a matter of time, but you might be right. :-( I think if we were going to have any, they would have already been here and drying up. Just like the DVD players that output HD on the analog outputs and PC HDTV capture cards that don't adhere to the broadcast flag. Devices that don't handshake are very quickly becoming technological unobtanium. MP seems to have trouble understanding my point here.

I think he fully understands my point, he just wants to be belligerent and slanderous. It seems to be his nature, especially when shown to be wrong about something. Perhaps he has some legitimate reason to behave that way, I don't really care any more. Thanks again. :-) |

No, idiot. I'm more like the guns that are out that have circuits in them that only allow the owner of the gun to fire it. Bwuahahahahahha! Busted BOTH your lame asses with that one! |

You saved 48 cents." ...by which time I have scanned the next 3 items, and the scanner subsystem acknowledged every one with a beep. "You didn't wait for me to finish talking. My scanner has a lower priority than my speech system. I don't know what to do now. Please wait for assistance from one of the human workers I was meant to replace." Which is precisely why I refuse to use the automated scanners. I also refuse to use ATM's. I had no sooner scanned a can when the machine complained that I had removed an item from the bag...problem was that there was nothing in the bag at that time. When I was approached by the personnel, I told them to either open a register or I was leaving. They opened a register. Not to be out done by Home Depot's checkout that demanded that I bag an 80 pound sack of concrete. Hey, I'd be happy to drop it on the scale! Or the clerk at Fry's that would rather have me heft a 1500VA UPS up from the bottom of the cart so she could scan it...I took the scanner from her and did it myself right in the basket. Gee, no brain required on that one. |

You are a closet vandal, however, since you knew it would damage the strain gauge or the calibration of it. |
