Unhelpful

I just tried Napster out for the first time a little while ago. I don’t see why RIAA is having such a conniption fit.

So far, every Napster user I’ve seen lies about their connection speed - funny how a nine meg file comes down over a 14.4 in 3 minutes. That’s assuming though, that anyone actually lets you download anything. A good 95% of my attempts to download anything resulted in errors, disconnections, or cancels by the remote user.

For the record, I wasn’t trying to acquire any material that RIAA is trying to get removed.

While cleaning up the Unhelpful Archives, I also remembered that I had saved what I had written for the now-slumbering r33t.org. I’ve added those archives to the side bar to the right. Just remember that these are only my contributions; I didn’t save the entire archive, and even if I did, it wouldn’t be my place to reproduce the entries I didn’t write or graphics I didn’t create.

Or for the impatient:

1917 (Revolution)
August 1999 - December 1999

Monkeys In Your Mind
July 1999

Slug Love
May 1999 - July 1999
