Re: 回复: Downloading from uniwide, few questions...

wow you are so hardcore being mistaken for programming =/
you could always come to cse laptop lounge and find some real programmers? :p
on second thought, dont come to cse laptop lounge, its too crowded :p
they should make you scan your card to get entry imo.
Wow. A REAL programmer. How I aspire to be you one day.



(lmao he does know how to program, and iirc has taken numerous comp subjects - get off your high horse, geek).

dude anything you get from BT uses specific ports they pick up on thats consistent with p2p activity. maybe dling just a song wont do anything but you want to take that risk

unsw comms unit has a server that sends all IT support staff a very fucking annoying email every so often they presume the internets being abused or flooded, because p2p does like pretty much thrash your internet by downloading parts of a file from many different clients too maximise download speed; vs loading just a few internet sites with hte average user you can tell the difference (this is determined by comm engineers/technitions/analysts that work for the comms unit ... usually just some lackey) ... also ARIA would pick up on the leeching and contact the ISP (ie. unsw) and they'll send down the fire and brimstone onto you

anyways this email contains IP Addresses, ip addresses are assigned from a server which gives you that IP address once you give it your student ID and password!

we had to ban a few students from using computers from them constantly ignoring us, i hope ur not one of them :p

i personally dont chase up people downloading, i deal more with troubleshooting hardware, virus's, dickheads who slow down computers (my solution: format ! ), i set up computer labs (you can thank me for all those new computers in samuels :p i had to do 2 floors by myself!!) + i helped with G2-G4 in Wallace wurth, and a few in level 4/5
your name isn't steve (or along those lines) is it?

I was caught torrenting on uni computers (god that was some insane speeds) twice. One more time and ill be banned. And I receive a msg from novetell client saying blah blah blah. stop or face consequences.

Which = fines / banning from quad lab.

lol.


Goodtimes, good times.
Now all I do is use rapidshare to do my dling. ;)

I hope they catch the biggest leeches and put them in jail or something.

Get an adsl connection like everybody else and leech on your own time, instead of screwing up the chance to use free internet for everyone else, goddamn.
qft.

Go downstairs to the comp labs there and you might find out...

I remember when I was an arts student and I tried using the macs there 2 years ago. Then I realised the errors of my ways and fucked off back to the quad labs and away from the Morven Brown altogether...

Never to return.

I would like to know the answer too. :)

Exactly how much is too much? I ask this because I've just discovered I can download podcasts on my ipod touch. Downloaded one or two of them about ~60mbs each. But say I wanted to download 10 of them. Thats 600mbs :)

Haha

So 'legal' downloading, what would the limit be?
I might ask tomorrow if I'm not busy and I remember.
