It's really worth it to help them.
Just take a look

Just dug out some pics here from the inofficial private video T7R| Fordman did when he and Tristan promoted Cyberseat in 2005 at the MPH.

Fordmann also made an official vid for Cyberseat

I also thought about doing it myself but
the problem is there are no or not many long-term studies available.
You got no guarantee that in 10 or 15 years your eyes are still "working" like they should
or that the result of the operation will stay as it was directly after the surgery.

I only know/read one study and there were a few complications after a few years.
i.e. after 7 years 75% had the so called ghosting or double vision effect etc.
http://www.usaeyes.org/lasik/faq/lasik-ghosting.htm

I think that's the engl. version of the study (but I'm not sure didn't read the engl. one):

Anyway I keep my glasses
I don't wanna end like this: :cyclops:

The first time I touched a Computer must have been around 1981 (the ZX81)
First mouse click I think was on the Commodore 128 in 1985 or '86 iirc or it was on the Amiga 1000 which I got back then.
As all the others C16 C64 etc. had no mouses
Must have been this one

Quote from EliteAti :Danny... get S2 first before organising S2 leagues... :S

Quote from Danny LFS :I don't see any rule for that.

But to organize an S2 league without having an S2 license doesn't make any sense.

How will you admin the races, organize the grid by hand if needed, check if someone is cheating during the qualy,
watch replays to act on complaints or to check for rule breaches, (without using a cracked version, which is a no go) etc. etc.

And I have to also agree with amp88 that "considering the use of the AI in any circumstance is a bad idea".

I bet that this league will never be successful with the currently missing requiered qualifications and rules.

I don't say that because I don't want others to be successful in what they are planning and doing
but because of my own long time experience in administrating my own or my Teams LFS leagues and racing events and the work in the background of other leagues.

So you should really think about your "baby" again and also about the critic some of the members here wrote.

Quote from wheel4hummer :Ok. That's completely irrelevant though. This thread is about Conficker C. Which, omigod, is a windows virus.

I wonder how you play LFS if you got no win os?

It was just a general statement.
As I often read things like "I'm safe as I'm windows free" etc.

But you are right it's just a windows virus
(but some people use their mac and boot camp and ... What do I care? )

Quote from boosterfire :Oh, I believe it's real. There's just one thing that's weird, though. For the moment, the worm is only duplicating itself, and trying to stay on the infected machines. Blocking the use of anti-virus programs, their websites, being as stealthy as possible, copying itself on a network or via USB keys. All that stuff is only helping it spreading and surviving, but it doesn't have very big consequences. I've read somewhere that the worm hasn't actually been 'turned on' yet, meaning that the real consequences, whatever they might be, haven't been seen thus far.

As the worm allows its creators to remotely install software on infected machines. The consequences can be anything.
I read on the symantec website: "Most likely the worm will be used to create a botnet that will be rented out to criminals who want to send SPAM, steal IDs and direct users to online scams and phishing sites". But they don't really know what will happen.

Quote from Shadowww : BBO@BSR, in Linux virus just doesn't haves any rights to modify ANY system file.

Ok, it can make something with documents in your home folder, but nothing more.


I won't argue with you.
So you are right (and local root exploits etc. for Linux also doesn't exist ).

Quote from wheel4hummer :Good thing my house is 100% Windows free.

Quote from Shadowww :
I have one windoze-powered PC, but it is not connected to teh interwebz)

I hope this should be fun and you guys know that in relationship to the market share Linux, Mac etc. are not safer than any Win OS.
In this specific case maybe and they also get fewer attacks ok
but in general one of the biggest computer myths is:
""I'm safe because I don't use Windows" etc.

Just an example:
http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=2941
Quote from the link:
"...It’s really simple. Safari on the Mac is easier to exploit. The things that Windows do to make it harder (for an exploit to work), Macs don’t do. Hacking into Macs is so much easier. You don’t have to jump through hoops and deal with all the anti-exploit mitigations you’d find in Windows..."


So in the end it doesn't make a difference what OS you use, if you have not secured your system properly then you can get funny surprises everywhere.

Quote from AutoPilot :our dev machines are win 2003 with auto updates and antivir installed, and no one uses them for email or internet since we have desktops for that. And we're far, far, from being idiots when it comes to computers. A large number of the machines still got infected...

I don't want to insult anyone there but your devs or admins must have done something wrong.
Else everyone / every company would have gotten infected, right?

Computer with a proper password policy and current security updates, antivir/security software and secured shares can't get infected by win32/conficker A, B,C or D.

The rest is media hype as always.

btw.
you don't need the internet to get an infected PC, USB drives or sticks or open shares are enough.

Quote from FSoft :

Yes, but I don't uderstand why there are many many users that pay to host LFS?

They get no profits. The guest play FREE on their server, and they PAY to host them???

Because that's how a great community works.
Not everyone wants to make money out of everything.
Money should not be the essence of life

Another reason:
Do you get an error message?
Like "Obsolete replay"
Then the replay is "too old", or better not compatible with the newest version of LFS.

Quote from BastianB :
imo the idea to sell the dvd isnt really that bad.

Agree and it's not a new idea.

I did almost the same thing many years ago (where not may people had DSL)
I run a website for another game with hundreds of megabytes of mods to download.
And we were asked to make CDs for people who are not able (dial-up) / not want to spend hours in searchig and downloading the whole stuff.
Then we sold customized CDs with all that mods on it
(not to make profit but to help some people. we just took some Euros for the additional expenditure (if that's the right words for it).

So I can't see anything wrong with these DVDs (5 DVD 20 pounds = ~4,33 Euro per DVD sounds fair to me)
