I've noticed a lot of, shall we say "timely" crack releases over the years.
Particularly with Waves and Steinberg. |
Seems to be like that yeah, the stuff gets cracked, but not fully. After some time some limitation pops up. This seems to be done to get you hooked on the software which is a great reason to actually buy it when it suddenly stops working. This could either mean "sloppy cracking", a release group being affraid of getting busted when they do the full job or a company that releases this "halfway crack" to avoid the issue of a full crack. One can only wonder how ethical the company is behaving if it does that. |
What has been happening recently to avoid software piracy, is that programers have been adding extra secrurity that makes the program accepting a secondary key, but then stops working after so many running hours. The key has to be 'correct', in adding up to a recognised value. But, the way the key is worked out by the keygen is wrong, it doesn't add up to a correct value. Normally it uses banned number in it. ie the numbers 2,7,9 mustn't be in the final sum. Quite often the program will run fine for say 200 hours, then start disabling. One well known case was Zebra 2. The Vsti started 'melting' on your screen! The thing is, the crack teams are in such a rush to release there products, that normally, they are unable to try the product for 1000 hours before hand to see if it going to work....
I use some cracked software, But I have brought some genuine stuff recently. When I brought Reason 3, I found it quite complicated at first and would of given up if it was a cracked version. Because I paid for it, I was determined to get it running. Worth every penny in my opion. Now days, I hardly touch the other cracked stuff.
Everyone is so determined to have the newest cubase ect. But the thing is as stated above. Most of its 'new' feature, you will probably never use, unless you're creating proper releases in a studio. Whats the point of having another larger program on ya harddrive, slowing ya machine down? Really, for most people, its the equivalent of getting the newest pair of nike or puma runners, but really, there just for show, walking round town, not running marathons

it works for alchol and tobacco... you wern't in canada and US during the porabition, the reason they removed the ban on selling alch was that criminals were selling it and makeing good money.
and if you check it out, the people that sell morphine isn't that far from the governement.
by them legalizing illegal drugs they would be able to regulate and control the substences trafficng easier. but nice try to counter with that argument.

If you haven't notice, tobacco is aggressively prohibited in most of the advanced countries of the world, and further still...!
Tobacco is a drug. Not very aggressive, no psychotic, but a drug non the less.

We went 
ages ago 
OK, strong point, but the problem with stuff like heroin is the huge impact on one's health (both physical and mental) and the risk of addiction. It's easy to get addicted to smoking, but you are "fully functional" and are able to lead a normal life. It's quite hard to get addicted to alcohol (for most people, even if you drink every weekend you can quit the habit, ok, some can't, but that's less than 10% of people drinking alcohol I guess). Once you do smack you are stuck, can't and won't do anything anymore, get constipated, don't eat, don't take care of your body, ruin it with needles, ...
We're talking speed lane here, not a walk in the park. And imagine stuff like crack or meth being sold legally. When you legalize a drug there will be a lot of people who can't afford it now or are afraid of getting caught on using it who will then start using the drug.
Biggest problem of this whole drugshit is that there is obviously no good solution otherwise it would have been done. There is this implant which is still in development, it should stop the effects of cocaine, so you don't feel anything if you take a line. I think that would be a way to keep prisons clean.

meth is legal.
wiki - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methamphetamine
| quote: |
| The dextrorotatory isomer dextromethamphetamine can be prescribed to treat attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, though unmethylated amphetamine is more commonly prescribed. Also, narcolepsy, and obesity can be treated by the aformentioned isomer under the brand name Desoxyn. It is considered a second line of treatment, used when amphetamine and methylphenidate cause the patient too many side effects. It is only recommended for short term use (~6 weeks) in obesity patients because it is thought that the anoretic effects of the drug are short lived and produce tolerance quickly, whereas the effects on CNS stimulation are much less susceptable to tolerance. |
what does heroin turn to as soon as it hits teh blood?
MORPHINE, and that my friend is legal too..
alchol deals more car accidents then the otehr drugs commbined.
smoking was on of the leading causes of death until McDonalds came to full force, and McD addiction is the Salt and Greese in thier food, which studies have shown reformulates the test subjects brians like Cocaine or heroin
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/2707143.stm
the drugs isn't the reason why people do it, that's just the technology, it's the people that do it, and you can't fight them. only educate and assist.

its not the drug itself; its the culture of drug usage. the addiction goes beyond the physical, mental too. people get turned on by the action of getting the drug, then using it as its forbidden so it gives some meaning to their otherwise pitiful lives.

It is expensive. I wonder how people in Africa buy software

They don't. Watch the document Good Copy Bad Copy. I think the producers actually uploaded to some torrent sites, so you don't have to pay for it.
