    AAC Protection Cracked?

    The story in non-geek. A few years ago, a Norwegian guy found it funny to crack the DVD encoding process. He reversed-engineered it all, from beginning to end. As the process was called CSS (one of the S's is for 'Scrambling'), he called the program DeCSS. He was sued and defended in court by...

    The science thread - Controversial

    Bad luck, chevy, your science thread is now Bible-based :p ;) :) MD's right. Biblical texts are controversial. Science is different. Or maybe not. What did Einstein said about relativity ? What did Thomas Kuhn said about scientific revolutions ? Kuhn proved science is religious, Latinally...

    Why did Apple include IE5 with Panther?

    Why NOT include IE ? Some people like it, its interface especially. I'd like to see Apple provide Mozilla/Thunderbird and Netscape 7 troo, but the average user'd get lost.

    Quark 6

    Format your HD. Quark gets some info hidden on your disk about licenses. Or just crack it, who cares, after all, you bought the licenses and no one's answering at Quark, so send em fudge away and use a serial. There is no reason Quark should make you lose even more money than their ugly...

    OS 9 is alive and kicking!!!

    Jason states right. OSX should rule over, but as of today, OS9 is still the path most designers are dependent to.

    Trip is in denial? CSS vs HTML

    Hey Trip, glad to see a new CSS zealot is on its way to webdesign glory. Check the ALA (A List Apart) link Mr K gave. As usual, Mr K gave the best link around. A bit o Javascript and CSS can do miracles. Check my place for the power of CSS design switching : www.phnk.com

    Time magazine HORRIBLE typo!!!!

    Solrac, if your boss tells you have three lines to write about the imts, you won't tell the world about the yellowbox and about marginal systems. Same, as your boss is Time Magazine, you'll restrain your scope to North US. That's press, that's American, generalist press. And those lines sound...

    Photoshop and PDFs

    Have the PDF import plugin on ? It should be by default. I'm not even sure it's a plugin now. If your scrnshot is taken with the Apple PDF tool, no reason at all it shouldn't work.

    Trip is in denial? CSS vs HTML

    RacerX, You're still cheating :p Zeldman and ALA were NN4 compatible a year ago. Then they looked at their browser stats, and off they went to CSS. Look at Happy Cog (Zeldman's) Studios. Their planning form (the document they use to target the customers' demand) has a line saying "Do you...

    Desperate: OS9 systematically crashes after my Panther intall...

    I upgraded and did not reinstall OS9. I'm gonna try this last option, but I'd hate wiping the disk for a simple 10.2>10.3 upgrade. This is a Mac, not Win98.

    RacerX: you're cheating ! :p Using an ancient browser nobody uses. I'm sure the nicest of your websites won't work properly in Internet Explorer 3 or Netscape Navigator 2 :)

    Trip is in denial? CSS vs HTML

    "Win98 and IE4 are antique systems." No. IE4 is antique because nobody uses it anymore. Which is not the case of Win98.

    Desperate: OS9 systematically crashes after my Panther intall...

    This is getting very annoying. I've installed Panther. Then I tried to boot back to OS9, a few days after, to play UT. Problem: it crashes at launch (just after the Welcome to Mac OS screen appears). MacsBug says dFSErr 18. Doesn't ring a bell, but sounds serious. So, I try to hard reboot...
