独立!万岁!

Posted by Prim3 on May 16th, 2008

最近发现我越来越不需要朋友,因为我自己凡事应该能独立。等到有需要别人时,再找他们也不迟。相信别人和我交朋友也是如此吧,有事钟无艳,无事夏迎春。当我没利用价值时,根本看不见我的存在。现在凡事自己搞定:一个人跑街、一个人看戏、一个人跑车,还蛮有趣的,也不必看人家颜色。一切的人生阻碍使我变得更坚强 :)

回想当初实行十不做,里面有条是:不帮人。哈哈,也不明白当时如何能够想到如此杰作。人家不帮你,你也不必帮人。理所当然。是时候再度施行十不做吧。无情无义;身心平静。

很快又一年了。又是她的生日。今年她过得怎么样呢?开心吗?好吗?虽然已不能和她庆祝,我还清楚记得,曾经当过幸福王子的滋味。

P/S: 大家庭II系列真实故事即将出炉,敬请等待!XD

Site Changes

Posted by Prim3 on May 11th, 2008

Was rather occupied making changes to Towards a New Frontier:

  1. Completed the transition to WP2.5! Previously still got some unworkable plugins and some theme issues. All seems to be well now.
  2. Changed image sizes from thumbnails to resized images. Still smaller than the original uploaded ones, but should be large enough for viewing. Clicking on the photos will bring full sizes. Still in consideration phase whether I should reduce the resized resolution since the quality for some photos is quite bad. Either I upload smaller photos from now on or back to thumbnails or just live with it.
  3. Removed sidebar items that are now considered unneccessary. This includes Mybloglog and some images. Reduced number of images and widgets should reduce site loading time I hope.
  4. Maybe some people had noticed that I keep on switching ad between Adverlets and Nuffang. Well, the reason is that there seems to be no ad coming from Nuffnang and Adverlets make my site slow. Now back to Nuffnang. I do understand an ad-free site is the best. But.. I have got some expensive hobbies (see my Otaku Blog for more details), so.. you get what I mean.. XD
  5. Added options for post sharing to Digg, StumbleUpon, etc. Hope whoever like my posts can share them. XD
  6. Other small changes

Anyone got any suggestions to share, pls feel free to comment here. I do read all of them :)

TorrentSpy must pay $110 million to MPAA

Posted by Prim3 on May 8th, 2008

A clear message to all torrent websites hosted on the US soil was sent all over the world today: A federal judge is hitting the shuttered TorrentSpy service with a $111 million penalty for facilitating the infringement of thousands of copyrighted works. U.S. District Judge Florence -Marie Cooper in Los Angeles, ruling in a case brought by the Motion Picture Association of America, said site operator Justin Bunnell and associates must pay the maximum $30,000 for “each of the 3,699 infringements shown.” The case, producing what is among the largest fines in copyright history, was bolstered after the MPAA allegedly paid a hacker $15,000 for internal TorrentSpy e-mails and correspondence.

“This substantial money judgment sends a strong message about the illegality of these sites,” MPAA Chairman Dan Glickman said in a statement. TorrentSpy, a U.S.-based torrent tacking service, shuttered in March after it lost its case against the MPAA. TorrentSpy did not lose on the merits, but defaulted after it failed to produce internal records. No U.S. case has squarely addressed the legalities of BitTorrent tracking services, although one case is nearing a resolution. Judge Cooper ordered TorrentSpy permanently shuttered. TorrentSpy attorney Ira Rothken was not immediately available for comment. He has appealed the default order to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco.

Prim3: Can this mean the end of the torrent world? We will never know. Perhaps a new file sharing technology will come out soon and allows people to download stealthily. Stay tuned! ^^

First day without MSN

Posted by Prim3 on May 6th, 2008

I said previously that I want to 隐居 and my friend (sort of) mocked me when he saw me in MSN. He asked me, “I thought you said you want to 隐居?” Really a joker and a b*stard. =.=”

So I am going to keep my word. Today is the first day I stopped MSN-ing. Hope I can adapt to it. ^^

Probably I shall return one day when I am ready again to accept the cyber world.

:)
