SUR X3 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Hey EasyBay, here's a bigger hint: It's known (in the warez scene) that cracking things with that method is frowned upon as many problems usually arise/features are left out/its against cracking ethics. Nothing left out of mine. Runs perfectly. The reason I say that is because I've had tons of problems with the torrented photoshops. But that's just me... "Cracking ethics" I guess you have your way of not paying several hundred dollars for a program, and I have mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mindvapors Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Casek, i think you misunderstood what Gwar was saying. I'm pretty sure he was having a time-sensitive issue where something in a prog was freezing up and he was trying to emergency save his project instead of having to close out the prog and lose all his work due to it freezing in the middle of it all.

potholder Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 BitTorrent Rolls Out 'Entertainment Network'; New Client Planned ARTICLE DATE: 02.25.07 By Mark Hachman, ExtremeTech On Monday, BitTorrent the company will compete with BitTorrent the technology, as the company rolls out a licensed entertainment network – and an enhanced BitTorrent protocol – to compete with the millions of copyrighted files being traded around the Internet. The scope of the BitTorrent Entertainment Network is broad: 3,000 movie and television titles will be offered alongside 1,000 games, and 1,000 music "titles", which may include albums, videos or collections of music. Movie rentals will cost $3.99 for new releases, or $2.99 for older titles; music videos and TV shows will cost $1.99 to rent, or $2.99 for high-definition versions. Video content will be available to rent, not to buy, because of what the company called prohibitive licensing costs. The company will also offer users the chance to self-publish their own content, like YouTube or Revver. During the second quarter BitTorrent plans to launch a third-party content delivery service, allowing users to pay creators for their work. The problem for BitTorrent is that its name has become synonymous with piracy; about 1.2 million users use the service at any one time. British analyst firm CacheLogic has estimated that 30 to 35 percent of all Internet traffic is being consumed by BitTorrent users, and many ISPs have attempted to place constraints on BitTorrent traffic. A significant percentage of that traffic involves the sharing of copyrighted files, to the outrage of movie and record associations, which have aggressively tried to shut down the network and collections of tracker files with moves against Swedish site The Pirate Bay and others. In mid-2004, Bram Cohen, the creator of BT, and Ashwin Navin, a former employee of Yahoo, founded BitTorrent Inc. "What we're giving the world is a better way to use BitTorrent," Navin said in an interview. "We're offering a sensible pricing model; our store is not closed for Christmas, and it doesn't take two hours to download." As far as Internet connectivity models are concerned, there are three companies to watch out for, Navin said: Apple, which owns the leading portable platform, the iPod; Microsoft, which has created the leading connected game platform, the Xbox; and BitTorrent, which "has the leading download mechanism right out of the gate," he said. BitTorrent hopes to use the power of its collaborative network, as well as its content partners, to help launch the service. The company has signed deals with Japanese distribution house Kadokawa as a means to offer Japanese horror and anime to U.S. customers, plus Lion's Gate Films, 20th Century Fox, Paramount, Warner Bros., and MTV; with additional content from HD network Voom and games from Trymedia. Te addition of MGM will be announced Monday. Sample content includes "Superman Returns," "Mission: Impossible III," "24" and "Prison Break". The deal is the first license struck between a Western online movie distributor and a Japanese studio, according to Eric Patterson, a BitTorrent vice president and general manager of its consumer services. "We know our users love Japanese anime, Japanese horror, et cetera. It's part of our target demographic." Mature content is too, Patterson acknowledged, although the site will stop short of pornography. For all movies and TV shows, users will receive a 24-hour window to watch the content as many times as they wish; that window will exist for 30 days after the user agrees to rent the content. BitTorrent uses Microsoft's Windows Media 10 rights-management technology to lock the content, Patterson said. Currently, a search for content on the BitTorrent site frequently links to copyrighted content from so-called "pirate" sites. A demo of a new, updated BitTorrent.com site appears to eliminate that, although a followup request for confirmation was not returned. The site also listed content, such as a "Beavis & Butthead" video from MTV, then reported that the content was missing on the download page. Continued... BitTorrent plans to update network to benefit customersBitTorrent's technology, however, has grown much larger than the company itself. The network itself is known as the BitTorrent DNA, or dynamic Network Accelerator. Each piece of content – whether it be a single movie file, or an album, with several individual song tracks – requires a "tracker," which coordinates the distribution of fragments of the file between the group of users downloading it at a single time. Each piece of content either requires a "seed," or one person who holds the whole file, or for each fragment to be online at the same time. Since each user is simultaneously uploading and downloading, more users sharing the content usually increases the throughput for all users. "BitTorrent has the infrastructure, technology and established user base to significantly move the needle on digital distribution with quick, easy and affordable delivery," said Thomas Lesinski, president of Paramount Pictures Digital Entertainment, in a statement. "The final piece of the puzzle is a wide array of content and Paramount is very pleased to be providing a vast selection of filmed entertainment to the site." Cohen and his engineers have also periodically enhanced its own BitTorrent client, which Cohen originally wrote. Known as Mainline, the client was last updated in 2005. However, a new version, which a company spokesman said will be released "in the near future," will contain some new enhancements. That version will support BitTorrent DNA Version 2, what Navin described as an updated network being rolled out now. The new version of Mainline will apparently not be released as an open-source client, as BitTorrent was. "Open-source BitTorrent gives you performance efficiency at the expense of the user experience," Navin said. The 6-Mbyte client will be BitTorrent's own code; the µTorrent client BitTorrent acquired in December will be used for portable apps. With DNA 2.0, users can start a BitTorrent swarm off of any Web object. The technology also recognizes when the user is Web surfing or using VOIP, gracefully fading into the background and scaling down the network utilization to avoid interfering with the user's other activities, Navin said. Because the network depends on users "seeding" the network with their own completed files, it's unclear how fast downloads using the new technology will be. When asked how much bandwidth BitTorrent is dedicating to its own seeds, Navin said that a single seed from its site would saturate a 6-Mbit connection. "The download time is analogous to downloading from [Apple's] iTunes," Navin said. Today, users must click, download the file, and then play with it a separate media player. In about three months, BitTorrent will provide a media player that will support "progressive downloading," or viewing of the media soon after it begins downloading, similar to the streamed media available today from a number of sources, Navin said. The company also plans to announce "a pretty deep pipeline" of licensing deals with hardware providers over the next few months, Navin said. To date, several routers from Asus and others have incorporated the BitTorrent client into their own firmware, allowing a user to program the router to download a file via a notebook, then detach the notebook and return later. The router then independently downloads the file to an attached hard disk, typically a USB hard drive. http://www.pcmag.com/print_article2/0,1217,a=201836,00.asp lol, who would actually use this and pay for drm content, when you can download it for free, in a better format, quality, and did I mention free? they can only rent you the movies, because the cartels want you to pay outrageous prices for them: Ashwin Navin, BitTorrent’s co-founder and chief operating officer, said the company had secured the right to permit users to buy outright digital copies of films, but the studios wanted to charge prices that would be too high for most consumers. “We don’t think the current prices are a smart thing to show any user,” he said. “We want to allocate services with very digestible price points.” http://www.nytimes.com/2007/02/25/technology/25bit.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindvapors Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Ok guys, this annoyance has finally gotten on my nerves. A few weeks back my bro installed a new HD as the master and installed windows xp pro sp2. Since then every now and then, pretty much randomly (though i just changed tabs in firefox and it started, could be a coincidence), the audio goes all static-y. This shit is REALLY FUCKING ANNOYING. Ok, so god damnit, my great speakers shit the bed, so i try BRAND NEW ONES and the same shit happens. So i'm like, ok, this is weird and decide to try and record off the sound card (stereo mix) and sure enough, it records the static. So this must mean it is NOT my speakers, correct? If so, what's it mean? My sound card's fucked up? Is this like a driver issue? I really hope this is a simple issue. Plx hElp!!11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

potholder Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 was the static constant on the recording you made? if it was, start recording, and at exactly five seconds into the recording, slap the hell out of the computer case. go back and listen to the recording and see if the noise disappeared. if so, loose connection, if not, software problem. edit: hope that came out the way it did in my head, I'm a bit too sleepy and high.

I can do that experiment without recording, as i can actively hear it whenever nay audio is playing. And i actually tried that, but the case is in an enclosed area (desk with tower cabinet) making it hard to actually move from side to side. That and my case is huge. I'll try making sure the card is set well when i wake. In the meantime, read this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Æ° Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Sappnin guys, I haven't been on the forums in a while because I sold everything I own and moved to the Czech Republic, and with the little money I have I can't afford a computer or internet yet, so access is limited. But I need to know how I can make my emails (sent via outlook) appear as they're coming from a different IP that I choose. I have a source for server lists, so I don't need that. I'm not spamming, I only need to send a few emails that look like they're coming from a different country. I've been searching the internet and I found SocksCap. Will this work? Is it safe? Are there other options? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mauler5150 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Good luck Sneak. OK, I have a torrent question, on Demonoid I have apparently only uploaded 1.38GB total from there, when for 1 torrent alone (Black Eagle movie) I have upped 4.53GB for a ratio of 6.725. IS this because I deleted a cookie or something using AVG antispyware and a-squared?? Because I have seriously upped more than I have downloaded, but my ratio is still fucked. Any ideas guys??
