Not surprising, there will always be someone who wants to prove they're smarter than everyone else, and of course if you can read it, you can copy it.
I am actually quite upset with HDCP. As a legitimate purchaser of blu-ray discs, I am still unable to watch them on my computer without purchasing a $40 software license in addition to the cost of a blu-ray disc reader, and without a constant stream of updates, there's no guarantee that a new disc I purchase will even play.
Fuck that shit. Stop resisting the future and give us what we want.

I've finished working on it, you can see a demo of it, the source code, and an explanation of the source code over here.

And I also have a cold. =)
Nose faucets suck. Netflix rules.
End of thought.

I've been working on a nifty little javascript image gallery. it's simple and quick unlike my Image Gallery Loop.
I've got an early version of it up right now with a few shots of Chicago from March this year.

I made a little tool the other night with the intention of creating something that would allow people to scale images so that they represent a 1:1 life-size view of an item in the picture.
The idea is simple, take an image that has an object of known dimensions such as a coin, and while holding another of that same coin type up to your monitor, you step the image size up or down until the coin on screen is the same size as the coin in your hand.
If a site were to be designed around this and have all of their photo's scaled the same, you could have users run through this setup, then save the settings in a cookie so the images are automatically scaled uniquely for that user. The user could know that they will get something that is the same size as what they're seeing.

http://www.theweek.com/article/index/200644/A_national_ID_card_in_2010
The employers who are hiring illegals ALREADY KNOW they are hiring illegals. If they're not checking their eligibility to work in the United States with the current system, why the hell do they think a National ID Card will work?
They won't stop illegals, they won't stop terrorists, they won't do anything besides spend another $100Million dollars that we DON'T HAVE. (see: National Debt)
If this bill passes, tell me. I want to buy stock in the company that makes the ID cards and card readers. There's nothing more profitable than making it illegal to not own your product.

I started playing the God of War collection on the PS3 yesterday. Please keep in mind that these comments are from playing the first game in the collection only, I may recant them when I have a chance to play the second one. I have played both original games to completion.
Although it's nice that they bumped the graphics up to 720p, it makes me wonder why they couldn't do 1080? It's a PS2 game for crying out loud. It doesn't look like they bothered rendering the cut scene's any higher. The sound quality so far, especially in the cut scene's, has been horrible and full of static/white noise. (I don't remember the PS2 games being that way, and no it's not my speakers or wires, blu-rays play fine from the same PS3 without sound issues)
The character models weren't upgraded at all, which makes me wonder why the price is so high. You can get it for ~$30 now, but it was tagged for release at $40. Right now it feels like they're asking for $30 because someone typed "1280" and "720" into a config file.
If you've never played the God of War games before, but wanted to, buy the collection. If you've wanted to play the games again after selling/losing your original copies, buy the collection. If your only interest is in the higher resolutions for a "classic" game, pass.
The game was originally marked at $40, you can get it new now for $30, but I feel the game is worth closer to $20. Which is basically the current used price for the original PS2 games.
UPDATE: I just played the second game in the collection, and my comments are pretty much the same, the audio is a little better, but still has some static to it.
