Starforce Copy Protection - Worse than a Sony Rootkit?

"under Windows XP, if packets are lost during the reading or writing of a disk, XP interprets this as an error and steps the IDE speed down. Eventually it will revert to 16bit compatibility mode rendering a CD/DVD writer virtually unusable."

Here is how we can get rid of Starforce. I know I'm.

Starforce reports boing boing to the FBI

"Starforce, the copy protection provider, which is despised by all games fans and allegedly screws up computers, is threatening to call the Feds on Boing boing over a post they made. Supposedly their blog post broke 11 international laws and they were being contacted by their US lawyer."

Reading the letter Starforce sent makes me sick. I doubt they can do anything about the post. Down with Starforce.

And the Beat Goes On...

Whew, where to start? Thursday I guess. So I went to pick Rachelle up Thursday night after Arena Football (We lost again, but it was fun none the less.) On my way back. What do you know? Another ticket. Lovely. No court though, just $78.00 down the drain.

I was picking her up because she kind of lost her job when she stayed the night Monday (Because she got a flat on the way home, didn't feel well, and couldn't handle it all.) because she got 6 points. So with no work, she went on the ministry team retreat with everyone to the Dare 2 share conference in Columbus. It was an amazing time, God works in amazing ways.

So this weekend, she is moving down to, "Sunny Mansfield." I don't know why they call it that... It's really not that pretty here or anything. But she will not be, "Staying" with me persay, because she will be sleeping at my Aunt and Uncles (Right down the road.) and just eating and spending most her time here at my place. Ya that's that I said... But my parents seem to be very concerned with the "temptation factor." But rightfully so, I would be if my kid has his girlfriend sleeping in the basement. But at least she will be here!

So I've been working on Virtenu a lot lately, trying to get the first site (The Rebels Rebellion) up and going. I install the forums today, but found out I've got to do it all over again, because I need to install a different version of the forums.

After that I will be working on surgeym.com, our Youth Groups site. I think I might end up hosting it as well.

Then, when that is stable (with or without forums I'm not sure), then I will start work on a legal bittorrent tracker.

That's my roadmap for now.

God bless,

Major Piracy Bust! RELOADED included!

"According to warning notices online, the following top providers have, for all intents and purposes, been eliminated; RELOADED, KNIGHTS, TFCiSO, Cinemaniacs, German-Friend, ParadieseBeach and Klapsmuehle. In addition, the leader of RELOADED was reported as arrested during the raids."

Oh say it isn't so... Reloaded has provided me with warez since I was just a boy.. This my friends is a very sad day. They WILL not win.

Watch the entire 60 Minutes feature on Cyber Athlete 'Fatal1ty'

"In case you missed it... here it is -- the interview and story in its entirety... you won't even have to Bittorrent it!"

Quite the life this man lives... Great watch. And man, the part about what looked to me to be DreamHack in Sweeden... amazing. Wish I lived there, they pwn.

time flys... or does it?

Seems like Rachelle and I have been together forever... yet today marks only 2 months. I guess knowing her for 3 years pervious makes it seem like such.

2 months is on the way to forever

Also, times going quite slow... Still 13 days till she moves in. To be 12 here shortly. Ah, I just can't wait. Patience is deffinatly something to be learned here.

In other news, I've been working on Virtenu alot recently. It's almost up to starting my new vision. Check it out:

Thats about all for now, thank you to those who take time to comment.

God bless,

5*3 Days Till She Moves In!

Yes, that's 15 days till Rachelle moves in. That's exciting. It's hard for me to hear about all she goes through and not be able to be there for her... :( but that will change soon!

She's Beautiful

Arena Football was fun last night, we lost but that's ok.

Today I've been workin' on Virtenu, it still needs some help. Hopefully when I'm done with it, I'll be able to make some small amounts of money off it... But then again I never do. I need to get a job soon. But my main focus right now is getting Rachelle down here and situated.

I like comments =) and you don't have to be a blogger member to post one ;).

Nintendo jabs at Microsoft... promises Revolution will outsell 360

"We will sell more units than Xbox 360 did here in the United States in our launch window. I mean, in December, we sold more GameCubes in the United States than Microsoft sold 360s, and Revolution will do better than that," Reggie said. Sounds like fighting words to me!

Yes Sir, Nintendo dosn't usualy say much, but my friends they speak the truth!

Mr. Bloggy, Mr. Blog.

This weekend was absolutely amazing. I picked up Rachelle Friday evening, and we spent the entire weekend together! I took her home last night. We did a lot of movie watching, which is weird for me, because I never watch movies... But I finally have someone to do that with. So on with the big news!

Rachelle is moving in. Cha, I know, it's crazy! I'm so happy. Why you ask? I'll let you ask her yourself. But, here is her blog:

http://www.xanga.com/Those_Days_Are_Gone

Yes puppy, your right, xanga does suck :)


So that's the best news since Unreal 2007! And she'll be moving in around the weekend of Feb. 4th. She does online schooling, so no, she won't be coming to Lexington. She will be coming to Church with me all the time, and probably with me all the time in general, so look forward to it =)!

That's it for this lovely post, I'm too happy to post anything else!!! God is good.


God bless,

The War Between YTMND.com and eBaums Continues!

"I received this email from Neil Bauman (Eric Bauman's father and "Executive Vice President of Ebaum's World Inc.) earlier today, followed shortly after by a second email with only "Please feel free to post this if you have the gonads.".

I strongly suggest you read more to see the most magical email thread I have ever been involved in."

Ebaums world responds to attacks!

"For the last 36-48 hours, ebaumsworld.com has been the victim of a global cyber-terrorism attack allegedly conducted by an alliance of webmasters and their followers who disagree with our company's editorial process"

So they respond to the war they've caused. They are still going down...

Here is a forum where many people have gathered to plan attack coordination, and talk about the results and so forth.

Here is a nice page that lets you easily leech ebaums bandwitdth.

They have stolen far to many things off people. No one is willing to spend all the time and money to legaly take them to court, maybe they will get the message this way. Down with ebaums.

Lindsay Lohan causes massive DoS war

An animated gif of Lindsay Lohan, stolen from ytmnd.com and placed on Ebaums world without a credit has caused uproar -the massed ranks of ytmnd.com, somethingawful.com and newsgrounds descended upon ebaums site and hosed the lot. Its all got a bit serious now and site owners are appealing for calm (and getting nowhere).

I'd love to see stupid ebaums world go down. +Respect for ytmnd. peace out... lol.

Student arrested for deadly F5 attack

"Lake County High school senior has been charged for linking to his school website (http://lake.stark.k12.oh.us/hs) and telling people to hit F5 multiple times, No word about survivors."

This is sad, can they really push charges for this? I don't think they can, but then again we live in America. I'm not instructing you to, but if you feel the need, go to their website and push the F5 button a few times ;).

Why you shouldn't trust MySpace

"An article on the background of the CEO, president, and ownership of MySpace. Very informative and detailed. A good read. Maybe you'll think twice about signing up."

Wow this is a great thing for all you losers who use myspace. I understand it's nice to have a single place to go and find just about every other person online, but please look into something else lol. Blogger is good. :)


Here is a good sight making fun of the different types of pictures/people on myspace.

I Can't Drive 55.

I drive 80 instead and get tickets. So apparently cops don't like you doing 80 in a 60, and if your in Wayne county, they make you go to court of your over 80, I was doing 82. So court tomorrow morning at 10:00 am, fun! But at least it extends my break 1 day longer.

In other news Christmas was great, (the ticket made a great present). New Years was lots of fun being with Rachelle! We went to Rebecca's party 1st, then over to Detricks to bring in the new year. Here are some pictures:

Miss Lovely Rachelle and I



spontaneous Licking of My Cheek, and Me Liking it



Spencer, Jeff and I Dancing to Some Concert After the Ball Dropped

It t'was fun. I can't wait till I see her again.

Other than that, I've been working on my server(s) trying to get some things fixed, big thanks to Ryan Young for all his help. Hopefully I'll get one running soon.

I need to work on virtenu.

I guess I'm going to be working on a site for a new movie Lee and Sam are working on, I won't say any thing more than that, so you can bombard them with your questions.

Life in 2006 is going to be hard, but it's going to be worth it. <3
