GFY Post Ticker -- THE RETURN - GoFuckYourself.com

gornyhuy · 03-07-2003, 03:58 PM

THE UNOFFICIAL GFY POST TICKER IS HERE!
--------------------------------------------------------

Okay, I finally got some time to be 3l337 and make all the changes that you all requested in this thread: http://gofuckyourself.com/showthread...ghlight=ticker

Basically this reads GFY and parses out the first page of posts and scrolls them on your desktop.
<center>

</center>

Here is the installer: http://www.uberads.com/GFY_Ticker.msi

Here are the latest changes:
1)Its now an .MSI file download, (Microsoft Installer), not an .EXE so you paranoid bastards can relax. Its totally legit.

2)Its free, but donations are humbly accepted.

3)Preferences now include:
-resizable
-always on top option
-scroll speed option
-Time between refreshes

4)It SHOULD include all support files you need to run on any windows machine, even without IE installed.

5)If you get an error message during install about the MSHTML.tlb failing to register, that is because you already have IE installed. Just hit continue and everything will still work fine.

6)If it doesn't work for you, tell me what setup you have and MAYBE i'll fuck with it. But what do you want for free?????

Enjoy, and

Try making a KDE version

gornyhuy · 03-07-2003, 04:07 PM

If I am, then so is Netscape, Opera, IE, etc... just creating a tool which reads and displays an HTML document doesn't violate any fucking copyrights. I'm not even publishing a document on a site for Christ sake.

What if I wrote a "3D Browser" that rendered GFY by displaying it on the surface of a sphere...??? What if I wrote a browser for the blind that did a text to speech translation on the board? Its the same fucking thing. I'm not changing the content, I'm not publishing the content, and I'm not taking credit for the content. I am in no way benefitting from the content or trademarks or brand of GFY and I'm not dilluting those in any way.

SO FUCK YOU MOTHERFUCKER.

Get mad. Thats good. Get mad at the people that passed the law that makes it illegal to distribute software such as that you just made.

http://anti-dmca.org/

http://www.eff.org/IP/DMCA/

I'm not criticizing the software bub....calm down.

If Lensman wanted to sue you he could.

gornyhuy · 03-07-2003, 04:12 PM

If Lensman, or other moderators want me to Cease and Desist, I'll be happy to... I'll take it down or hand it over. I just don't see the big fucking deal.

Asuna, you may have downloaded while I was in the middle of uploading the latest version. Might try again?

Can't vouch for XP one way or the other, but it should work.
See the previous thread for a discussion of use on XP.

Just let me know.

I'm glad you're now in charge of marketing for Lensman.

Just let him know Lensman. he'll be glad to take your content, copy it without your legal permission, redistribute through software that is illegal, and then ask you if you would like him to make changes in it. Not to mention watering down your brand in the process and taking away ad revenue from your site.

With friends like that who needs enemies?

Chong · 03-07-2003, 04:21 PM

nice improvment over the last one.
great work man!

Anyone gotten it to fly on XP Pro?

candyflip · 03-07-2003, 04:23 PM

Working for me. I got some errors on install, but it seems to work just fine here. Thanks.

gornyhuy · 03-07-2003, 04:23 PM

By the way It will be easy for Lensman to block it from reading posts if he so desires...

will you please shut the fuck up, lol.

Ludedude · 03-07-2003, 04:24 PM

It's an interesting tool.

I don't see an issue with it since in reality in order to actually READ the content, you need to come to GFY and see the ads and the entire site. It's no different than ANY news site linking to articles on other sites; as long as you don't actually reproduce the content of the other site there should be no DMCA issue.

But then again what the fuck do I know.

Thanks for the applet.

Is there a maximum value for refresh delay? I tried putting in 180 and got Run time error 380 "invalid property value"

Why dont you ask Lensman.

Oh wait, he didnt authorize the usage of his content in this way. but its got his brand all over it.

I admit I'm playing devils advocate just a bit but it really is careless to assume nobody gets hurt or no revenue is lost when someone makes this sort of application.

This site is content. If you're willing to steal content from this site, would you also be willing to steal other types of content?

On the otherhand, Lensman should probabally hire the guy for doing so much hard, albeit copyright insensitive, work.

I would say "quit while you're ahead", but since everyone now realizes you have no clue what the fuck you're babbling on about, I guess you have nothing to lose.

Carry on.

In order to get said content, one needs to actually click a link and go to... brace yourself for this one... GFY. He is merely telling people that there is something on GFY that they may find interesting, and thus bringing traffic to GFY.

Dude, you're on crack. No content is being stolen, the content is being linked to. Go bark up Yahoo News' tree if you have a crusade. I don't remember lensman announcing he hired your sorry ass as his in-house counsel.

MrPopup · 03-07-2003, 04:32 PM

Thats funny you say that.

What other content have you stolen?

Do you think you could come up with a cute little application that steals pictures from pages too?

candyflip · 03-07-2003, 04:32 PM

I don't see who anyone could equate this with stealing content. It's simply a desktop app that displays links to the topics on the board. You can't read the posts without going to the board, and if you hit the board you see all the wonderful ads.

What content is being stolen?

Ad Impressions are delivered every time a page is loaded through a web browser. He is taking page RELOADS from GFY and putting them into his little appy.

He is stealing traffic from this site and then using the site to distribute the software meant to take those ad impressions away.

I'm not anyone's counsel bub. Why dont you show me some of your sites so i can start using your content in an unauthorized way?
