TIcalc.org has been my home-page for 2 months :)

HENRIK POSTS COMMENTS?!?!?#!@*#&!(*#

Ye gods ;)

Who'da thunk it? I visit ticalc.org just long enough each day (or couple days, if I can't make it) to make sure no new math programs of use have come my way. Calculus is my friend, but only when I have the proper means of keeping my A. :-)

Nick, how about a Napster based question for the next poll? I'm sure there are many to choose from; make it your objective to ask the best one. I bet you can't...

Do you pronounce Napster "crapster" like Nick does?

- Yes
- No
- Napster isn't pronouncable in real life.

--BlueCalx

I pronounce it "Go to http://www.audiofind.com instead" usually. Failing that it is "Go to http://www.astalavista.box.sk"

Besides, you should all go to http://sicode.ticalc.org/psycho and stop thinking about MP3's - they're bad for your bandwidth...

Napster!
Did anyone watch Channel One News' coverage of Metallica's lawsuite? It was very poorly reported in my opinion (even more than Channel One has done on other stories). First of all, they mentioned all the facts, such as the list of around 300,000 names of copyright violators, but failed to actually state that the group was Metallica. (Yes, I know there are other lawsuites pending, but they were obviously talking aobut this one.) I don't see any reason for them to do that other than to leave information out. Also, they stated that Napster was in trouble because of the copyright violating mp3's "on its website." To the best of my knowledge, that is down-right wrong! Napster doesn't have mp3's on its website; they are on people's computers. Thanks for listening to my general complaint. It's nice to have a vent somewhere.

Side note: I was wondering if Visual Basic scripts work properly on Macs. Specifically, I'm wondering about the iloveyou virus.

Channel 1? I hate that program! I've seen it, like, 4 times this school year, and the year ends in a WEEK. The graphics are corny, the announcers are fags, and the stories look like they were thought up by a horde of rampaging blue monkies!

Oh, and about Metallica's lawsuit..
I believe Metallica will lose. The lawsuit under copyright infringemnt has no foundation. Napster does not store the songs on their database, nor does it create MP3's by itself, it, in basic terms, is just a program, like chat or ICQ, that connects computers so that they may trade MP3's and other audio files. The program did not break any laws.

However..
The MP3.com lawsuit was ruled on April 28th, that the company(MP3.com) is found guilty of grand copyright infringement and is ordered to pay anywhere from $1,000,000 to $6,000,000,000 in lost funds.

Amen to the first part of your comment. I have had to watch Channel One for the last 3 years, but this year I've gotten lucky--my teacher hates Channel One too!! So I have no clue about the Metallica stuff, but i really don't care.

Also, please visit my web site.

Hahaha. If you read in slashdot this week, after banning 300,000 users who had Metallica mp3s, 300,000 new users where added to Napster that day :)
BTW, what is Channel 1? I have cable TV, but not this channel one tv program.

Channel One is a news program that for schools that is almost always out of date by at least 12 hours and is hated by everyone. Apperantly there is ONE person in my school that likes it, some gay person who's a whiz at technical stuff.

I kinda liked Channel One when I was in high school. It took away from class time. :)

HAHA. we don't have channel one. we watch CNN News Room, which isn't too good either. better then ch.1 probably, though!

I think I remember reading that it doesn't... but why would you be using a Mac anyway?

yES, iT iS tRUE. hENRIK hAS pOSTED!

Once a week is ok, once a day is ok too; but several times a day thats crazy. But just so you enjoy it I guess. Oh check out my cool web page!

No! Don't! He uses AOL!!!



(AOL Sucks)

anyone who doesn't live here is a dork. let us laugh at the rest of society.

I'm slow at replying...I did the poll as to how many times I come in a day, the day this poll came out. I like to come here and check what all was put up and read the news.

That's all I gotta say!
