    Warez or no Warez?

    See, this is the difference in age showing between me and you... You're imagining that it's just you making some small app, and going for the whole 'Open Source' thing, not a team of developers that need money to pay the bills...

    Warez or no Warez?

    I don't want to know what you were looking for when you found this thread. And if you don't have the money, you can't afford it, and shouldn't be using it. Try Photoshop Express (review: http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2290387,00.asp ), Paint Shop Pro, Paint.net... All these...

    Internet and Grammar

    ^ A double negative? Are you sure English isn't your first language? Btw, congratulations, your comprehension of English far exceeds that of many of my fellow ex-students at university (in England).

    Somewhat... More on IRC than the forums of late: requires less effort, and it's not just more of the same. More: less of something different. btw, what happened to the complimentary "Hi Sharky"?

    Same shi* different day, mate. How's the work going? If I remember, weren't you doing something to do with a casino?

    Internet and Grammar

    I average about 100WPM with capitalisation, punctuation, grammar, and ... paragraph breaks, unless you count that as punctuation. Maybe you should slow down just a little. I find that it not only takes me longer to read so called 'txt spk', but also significantly longer to write it. So I...

    Verified By Visa

    Like I said, I'd need assurances that it's only to be used for banking purposes (financial transactions, not door entry, or anything else stupid), and a watertight privacy policy. And regular security audits.

    Verified By Visa

    There *was* no evidence back in 2008. I'm surprised I didn't point out the article date... well, it was rather early this morning. I just think that without any form of biometric authentication protocol, it's destined to fail. However, then there's the problem of where to store the biometric...

    Internet and Grammar

    If you think you've seen bad spelling, punctuation, and grammar, why haven't you even mentioned so called 'txt spk'? There's nothing more 'disrespectful' towards the English language than removing all vowels for no reason. In a text message, it's understandable, as you're limited to 160...

    why we should't study........the equation of study

    Apparently you haven't studied, as you can not spell 'shouldn't' or 'proved'. And it's flawed, as fail != study, so you can't just mash the two equations together and remove anything you want to. Also, study does not equal "don't fail", nor does "don't study" equal "fail". I'm sorry, this...

    Verified By Visa

    Quoted from an article in The Guardian: http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2008/jan/03/hitechcrime.news It's a flawed technology giving the illusion of security. Any automated method that is invented to try to prevent fraud will eventually be defeated. Think about the counter-theft...

    Repuation

    After being a user for a while, you get a certain number of 'moderation points' (number depending on how long you've been a member, I guess...), where you can give a post a rating and categorize it as one of many groups (including funny, insightful, troll, etc). Those who repeatedly get a low...

    John Klyne REVEALED!! EVERYONE READ and REPLY

    I confess, I didn't read all of it. But seeing John Klyne written that much... I kept thinking "Bob Dole": And kudos to anyone who isn't staff (and who I haven't told already...) who knows my real name. Or even gender, apparently...
