Truecrypt

search on google, it is free. It creates a virtual space in a file format and u assign a drive letter to the virtual space. mount the file it becomes a drive. just like a c: drive. if you forget your password. You cannot recover your files lost forever.

1. open a website

2. Take a camera (digital or manual but make sure it has flash)

3. Make sure the flash on the camera is on

4. Take a picture of the website

Now you have a flash website.

WebmastersRe: Incredible! Chinese Eat Thier Babies For Breakfast( With Pics) by Cactus(m): 12:33am On Nov 23, 2007
this is old story. there are other pictures with baby parts in a plate. the original artist had a disclaimer. and I saw one on onion.com. This is unreal, also another one similar story about japan.


http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/weekly/aa080601a.htm

I think we can safely say that the Chinese as a people do not routinely eat babies or fetuses; nor do Jews, Christians, witches, aborigines or any other groups accused of doing so over the centuries. There's simply no proof of it. There has never been. What the historical record shows is that the allegation has surfaced time and time again as an ethnic and religious slur.

The claim that baby or fetus eating is an accepted practice in China (or Thailand, or Japan, or Korea, or Israel, as other variants of this same rumor claim) is more or less a modernized version of an ancient legend known as "Blood Libel." It has typically taken the form of one culture accusing another (or a subculture) of ritually sacrificing infants and in some cases eating them. The Greeks accused the Jews of it, the Romans accused the Christians, Christians accused the Jews again, and so on throughout history.

Folklorists say the driving forces behind such legends are ignorance, xenophobia (fear of other peoples and creeds) and/or one culture projecting upon another its misgivings about unsettling moral trends at home.
ProgrammingRe: MCSE: How Many Exams To Write? by Cactus(m): 2:04am On Nov 18, 2007
I will never waste my time to write any exams.

If you write exams now, maybe in two or three years, new systems are in place, companies switching to new platforms. your 2007 certifications MAY BE outdated no one knows.

IT is extremely volatile. anything can happen anytime

Good luck to those who take certifications and who are already certified

Neco or waec may be wary of providing public APIs because of security concerns
a crude way is to do http post for the username file and pwd and using a data scraping method to retrieve the relavant information required. if they use a turing code, then this will not be possible.

cheers<<< my custormers go for what you want do not be decieved
You dont download tv card from the internet, a tv card is not a software, How can you download hardware from the internet? from your description above you are selling a software that contains a list of tv stations. so no external hardware is involve just a list of tv stations.

look at wwitv.com I bet you almost 99% of your station list are listed on the site.

also search on google for SOPCAST, TVUPLAYER. tvuplayer is great love it. sopcast for premier league and champions league.

what you are selling is a repackaged for of wwitv.com

I think i started using ipods in 2002, i used 3 different generations and each broke, so i decided to stop using ipod.

Many of my friends, and many savvy people I know are switching to something else.

Use ipod at your own risk
ComputersRe: I Need An Ipod by Cactus(m): 4:42pm On Oct 05, 2007
ipods are not durable. most end up spoiling. even if you get the flash based. for you to replace the battery, it is relatively difficult. for the price you want. it is not the best you can buy.

Sound quality is poor.

ProgrammingRe: Need Some Good Advice On Professional Course To Choose by Cactus(m): 9:22pm On Oct 04, 2007
you are a computer scientist and you do not know what you like.

from wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_scientist

Computer science, or computing science, is the study of the theoretical foundations of information and computation and their implementation and application in computer systems.[1][2][3] Computer science has many sub-fields; some emphasize the computation of specific results (such as computer graphics), while others relate to properties of computational problems (such as computational complexity theory). Still others focus on the challenges in implementing computations. For example, programming language theory studies approaches to describing computations, while computer programming applies specific programming languages to solve specific computational problems. A further subfield, human-computer interaction, focuses on the challenges in making computers and computations useful, usable and universally accessible to people.


# 4 Fields of computer science

* 4.1 Mathematical foundations
* 4.2 Theory of computation
* 4.3 Algorithms and data structures
* 4.4 Programming languages and compilers
* 4.5 Concurrent, parallel, and distributed systems
* 4.6 Software engineering
* 4.7 System architecture
* 4.8 Communications
* 4.9 Databases
* 4.10 Artificial intelligence
* 4.11 Visual rendering (or Computer graphics)
* 4.12 Human-Computer Interaction
* 4.13 Scientific computing
* 4.14 Didactics of computer science / Didactics of Informatics

The messages entered in the Speak Up Nigeria campaign are here!

The messages entered for the campaign vary greatly. Some are lengthy, others are brief. Despite these differences, there is a common theme - a desire for a better, more inclusive country that will make every Nigerian proud of their citizenship.

So, take a little time to leave a comment indicating your vote for whichever entry you prefer! Your vote counts here - so exercise it!

ComputersRe: Which is Better:The Pentium or the AMD? by Cactus(m): 4:14am On Sep 30, 2007
the type of processor used these days do not really matter much. Both are great in their own way.

Also keep in mind majority of computer users, they

go online (email, community, etc)
chat
document processing (word, excel)

that is all majority of people use pc for
Obviously if you are into hardcore gaming, graphic design, photo editing, then you may be concerned about what type of process used.

Regardless of that, most people only do simple graphic design, photo editing and gaming, which both can easily satisfy.

It doesnt matter if you are a basic user, average user. Then people will say they are power users lol. No matter what type of processor you get, your computing power needs will be satisfied. except you are running applications for Nasa or something crazy. nothing much is needed.

You can pretty much buy any new computer these days and be satisfied. Major difference is in design, presentation, and packaging simple. and sony rocks in this aspect lol.

Previously people ask me I am looking for a computer, I want this much power, I want this much space. well I give them a good specification. But now if someone ask me what computer should they buy. My first question is always how much do you want to spend?

For $500 you can get a kickass system. to me for an average user it doesnt matter.

Music/RadioRe: Download Songs From joromi.com by Cactus(op): 4:59am On Sep 18, 2007
oh perfect, cron jobs will rename your files hm but you still have your links so I can make a spider to also scrape for the information i need. Oh I just realised I don't have to do any other thing just let the spider do the work for me. Oh no very bad idea, guess what, you will have dead links in your search engine results for audio criteria. well that can be easily taken care of. just create a custom 404 and redirect to your music section simple. but you may loose credibility as your service may not be reliable. so think about quality of service. hm so probably you want to encrypt your links next.

Tell me your technique and I will tell you how to pull the information I need ah ah ah .

Cron jobs + Spider = Joromi

I can tell you more ways. block joromi.com, block the ip for joromi., hm proxy servers = sweet, Tor = Fantastic am already falling in love. Oh by the way, I can also change the ip for my site ehe h eh . hm what next can he do lets see. hm maybe do something with referers. Oh, Thank Lord Google, Thank you for giving me the power to use you the way I deem fit to be able to circumvent firewalls.

Oh remember, I can also post the links on forums so individuals also use their ips, whao you end up blocking everyone and your site is down.

well you can definitely password protect your directory from listing. So the next thing you can do is to stream. Hey eh eh Streamripper. will always do the job. OH i thought about that because radiopalmwine is my target and I cannot get their directory read. So i can use streamripper to download the songs and upload onto my server though it may take time, it will do u job, Oh no , I can tell my friends make grids to increase computing power. Another way buy servers in china thanks to copyright issue. Oh that reminds me I already have friends in china. eh eh So i can upload the songs on my servers and download.

Oh the most hardcore way. pay people to buy cds in nigeria big bucks, rip them and upload them to my server. oh what a shame if i am extremely determined you can't stop me sorry dude. your means are all expired wan wan wan. oh poor aluta continua , don't cry I am not going that far now. I will think about it. If anyone is interested I can give you plan and talk to you about the little i know regarding security. oh I need to go to karaoke now.

The best way to block me. is hold on let me think, thinking,

how about talking with record labels to start something like napster or itunes. hm MMS, also think about partnering with MTN. Oh how will you pay, well you can use airtime minutes to pay or buy credit like you buy cards for phone or get a membership subscription. whao


Imagine the possibilities. oh wait. aluta said cactus is evil. cool. aluta do you buy audio cds by the roadside? what do you call that let us assume some are genuine.

what is a cactus? get it, go get a clue and you've being schooled. cover your grounds before giving any baseless suggestions. promote artist ok cool, well more people may have the opportunity to listen to nigerian songs now. people who are reluctant to buying cds or who don't have the means of finding the songs. eh eh eh. promote artist. what do you think or say now if u still know how to type. probably 15wpm. OH my chinese friend listened to african queen and she loves it lol. maybe i should cover the african part and turn it to chinese.

Ok next thing suggest prison. I have got that covered dude.

google - content aggregation

they did not invent the content they only brought tools to make it easier for you to find.

what is google dance.

what does google robots do

why can you find cached pages on google and other search engines.

they copy contents onto their servers.

FYI joromi is not copyin but linking

so mr cacus or whatever, take a nap and think of a better thing to do in life so that you don't end up in trouble, in this life, remember its a small world, no matter what you do, you too could be leached, if you leache artist from their source of income, be sured ud get rewarded.

please don't twist this, am not dissing you, youre quite intelligent - but try to use your brain towards building(inventing) something and not waste youre time breaking things,
I understand what you mean. So can you also tell google to stop their search engines? because you can find books music and other softwares through google to download. is google paying all these people you download their stuff? obviously no. If I am able to do what I can do which I will try to continue but afriville and naijapals they do something crazy which bugs me but I will try to update asap.

So we need to stop google, microsoft, yahoo and other search engines and content providers before anyone can stop me if I can still continue what I am doing.

Not sure how to use imeems will figure it out. My target is radiopalmwine which I don't think is possible. lol

you mentioned something about downloading a flash decompiler. Ok so why don't you try it if it works and see how long it takes you to get the songs if it works. instead of everybody stressing. I am trying to do most of the work so people can take time out. Pretty much same thing for google. normally before everyone or ideally most people go to libraries now google or other search engines brought all the resource together that you may technically not need to go to a library. you can remotely log on to a library and request for books or research

Of course anyone can do this. It all depends on efficiency and speed of getting it done. If you have the right tools definitely someone with limited knowledge about scripting can get this done.

The links still work you may now have to copy and paste until i find a solution

if you have more links drop them
