Slashdot Mirror

From my blog: http://jambarama.blogspot.com/2006/03/how-microsof t-got-ie-to-be-de-facto.html

Why did Microsoft care what browser people used?
Operating systems can be replaced by higher level operating systems. BIOS stood for (used to, they changed it in the 90s) basic integrated operating system. BIOS was a full on (but limited) OS. Microsoft figured out how to use BIOS to boot DOS, a higher level OS. Later they figured out how to get DOS to boot Windows. Thus they knew operating systems could be replaced, they'd done it: BIOS > DOS > Windows (until they jettisoned DOS in 2000).

They were afraid the internet was going to do this again. And Netscape would be basically an OS on top of Windows. The problem was this: if everyone develops for Netscape, not for Windows, then Windows wouldn't matter (just like who makes your BIOS doesn't matter now). Microsoft was terrified that Windows would get built over. Then they couldn't charge much for Windows (because it wouldn't be that important). So they did their darndest to kill Netscape and force IE on everyone else.

Getting rid of the Apple Problem
Macintosh threatened to throw a wrench in their plans. Even if Apple went out of business, someone would buy it up and still offer Macs. Because there was another viable platform, many early developers felt they should work for compatibility with both Mac and Windows. There was no IE for Macintosh and even if there had been, Microsoft needed a way to get Mac users to use it. If IE wasn't default for all major platforms, IE wouldn't be the standard, it would be a standard.*

Luck was on Microsft's side. They had been killing Apple's revenue for sometime and Apple was willing to partner with anyone to survive. For Microsoft it was worth $150 million to make IE the de facto standard that it remains to this day. For Apple is was worth accepting IE to survive to try and fight again.

So what about Netscape?
Tying means using one product to sell another. Tying is like selling a copier and forcing (contractually or with technology) the consumer to get the copier serviced by you as well. This example is an actual case - Kodak did this. Tying is not bundling (for example selling Office rather than Excel or Powerpoint alone. Bundling is fine). Tying is per se illegal - if you are found to be tying, you are wrong, no debate - bundling is fine.

I don't think there was any doubt in Microsoft's mind that bolting IE to the OS was "tying." The problem for Microsoft was that permanently bolting IE to Windows (and making it default) was the only way to unseat the current king of the internet, Netscape. It worked. And then they got slapped with an anti-trust suit for guess what... tying.

During the trial a Princeton computer scientist got the Windows code via a court order and found that by removing two lines of code (from the source of Win98) you could get rid of IE. So Netscape presented this in court. Microsoft's rebuttal was a video, showing that by removing these two lines of code Windows crashed. When the prosecutors looked into this they found this was two different videos spliced together (thanks Ballmer). Guess what?

They were found guilty. Judge Penfield Jackson was furious. He'd been annoyed by Bill Gates' irritated deposition. Gates had been ornery and not very helpful, but this put Jackson over the top. So Jackson wrote a scathing decision and Microsoft was supposed to be split into three companies. Because this decision was so harsh when the change of administration came, they refused to enforce it.

So Microsoft won. They got IE to be the standard everyone uses when developing for the web and no penalties for it (if you don't think IE is the de facto standard, make your site incompatible with IE and, unless it is slashdot, don't expect to get much return traffic). Microsoft now has new pressure again - from alternate web browsers and from alternate operating systems. But there is a new savior on the horizon for them - trusted computing. If they succeed with the vendor lock-in trusted computing allows they'll never go out of business.

The USPTO patent application examiners task could be made more reliable if the examiners could consult one or more public online registries that document cases of prior art and public discoveries. The online registries could provide a means for the public to retroactively point to cases of preexisting prior art for pending patent applications and a means to proactively document publicly known ideas and concepts. Although websites and digitally stored content in general is changeable, individual entries and changes in an online registry could be legally authenticated by means of digital timestamping ( http://www.rsasecurity.com/rsalabs/node.asp?id=234 7 ). An online registry could be hosted by the USPTO as an adjunct to the existing online public patent and patent pending databases. The USPTO could also publicly recognize other individual registries hosted by third parties such as a commercial entity or a non-profit community similar to Wikipedia ( http://www.wikipedia.org/ ). An individual adding an entry to such a publicly online registry does not involve granting that individual any form of monopoly, therefore the action need not have any artificial barrier involving fees or payments. Would the existence of digitally timestamped public content overcome any objections by the USPTO to its citing as prior art? Has the USPTO any plans to add some form of publicly accessible feedback mechanism to the patent application process?

They do ask but the government in China does everything it can to make sure those voices are not heard. See this constantly updated entry in Wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_censorship_i n_China You can see from this page http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2006/02/testimony-i nternet-in-china.html how hard it is for seaarch engines to cope with the problems in China. Most importantly, when people do cry out they are taken to court by the Chinese government. You can see an article about such cases here. http://asia.internet.com/news/article.php/3600251

i hold notepad in the highest regard as a text editor

ACK
Notepad is terrible!!! I mean:

• No syntax hilight
• No completion
• Size limitations
• No line/column numbers
• No code folding
• No incremental search
• And the worst: it has bugs!! Even simple as it is!!

Use emacs, gedit, kate, or even notepad+ for a while and you will never use notepad again!

I know people will hate me for saying this, but Kefka was transparent. He was an Insane Evil Overlord(TM). Kill people with unneeded brutality! Destroy the world for no particular reason! All while dressing like a clown!

I just have trouble seing a character like that as a person. Now, Sephiroth, that was a "villain" I could get behind. Yes, he angsted a fair bit. But he had a plan, a purpose. He had a method to become a God that actually worked well within the framework of the game universe. He wasn't evil for evil's sake - he was purposefully evil.

Of course, here is my greatest heretical notion: that FF8 was a better written game than FF7. No, seriously, I mean it. Compare the dialogue from the earlier FFs (through 7) and later (say, 9; oh dear god, 9 was poorly written) to that in FF8.

Non-8 FFs:
A: "Oh, woe! The world will end!"
B: "WHAT?!?!?!?!!?!!!!?"
C: "Take heart, everyone, we can do it!!!!"
D: "Lets do it... together."
A: "Yes! For the world!!! If we believe in ourselves, we can do it!!!"

VIII did have its fair share of that kind of cliche (it's an FF tradition, after all), just not as much. And certainly not the entire script, as in IX. God, that was awful.

Not that FF8 didn't have its problems. Ultimecia would best be described, to borrow Miss Snark's term, as "aliens that arrive in chapter 14". Squall was deliberately hard to like, and as a video game MC, that's harder to deal with than an unlikable book MC. And lets not even get into the gameplay balance/time issues.

Of course, nothing beats Tactics. I think they were channelling George R. R. Martin on that one ;)

Until recently, when installing Firefox on a Windows computer, you had to do the uninstall old version / install new version thing to avoid duplicate - and "dead" - entries in the list of installed software.

Depends what you mean by recently.

this blog says the issue you're complaining about was fixed over a year ago

I agree with this. I actually wrote a rather long blog entry here about why I think a lot of web-based "web 2.0" applications are a bad thing (or, at least, not the best thing for the intelligent and creative people in computing to be focused on).
My main two points were that:
A: There are security implications involved with using web applications. Theoretically, a cracker, marketing firm, or government intent on getting access to personal documents would only have to gain access to a single server (or cluster) to get access to the documents of everyone who uses the service. Even if you delete documents, you have no way of knowing if the documents are actually deleted.
B: Moving things onto the web stifles innovation. While there are many interesting things that can be done by having applications communicate over the internet, instead of building on already mature desktop technologies, we are instead trying to do all of these things through the browser. While there are benefits to this, I feel that they are outweighed by the limitations of working on the immature and rather limited platform of AJAX/DHTML/etc. inside of a web browser. The best we could hope to accomplish over the next few years is to recreate on the web what we already have available on the desktop now- so we can write web applications in a few years that we could write for the desktops today.

And yet cases are going against them, and further lawsuits are being brought against them, in their overzealous pursuit of profit:

• RIAA Chan case dismissal
• High Court Bounces Latest RIAA Effort
• RIAA lawyers bully witnesses into perjury
• Oregon RIAA Victim Fights Back; Sues RIAA for Electronic Trespass, Violations of Computer Fraud & Abuse, Invasion of Privacy, RICO, Fraud

It's not in the millions by any stretch, but as these things gain momentum, the RIAA is going to be defending itself on a thousand fronts and undoubtedly as more and more cases make their way into the headlines, they will find themselves on the losing end, as more and more people abandon CDs and pick up music for free on-line.

It's not a victory yet, but this could be the biggest blow, if it's found that RIAA members were busy fudging the evidence to get their own way. If they're in the right, why the deception? Because they know they have alosing battle on their hands unless they stack the deck. This one thing may come back to bite them hard.

This is ironic considering Verizon is one of the major SOURCES of spam. We've ended up wholesale RBL'ing most of their DUL space. Here's a good Sendmail-based blacklist to start with.

Generally speaking, I think it's a good idea to implement something like this, but the problem with Verizon is that they need to filter port 25 on their broadband IP space first and foremost, like AOL and Bellsouth and many other providers are starting to do.

Ultimately, what Verizon is doing is not a bad thing. It will force other ISPs to more closely police the illegal traffic on their networks from zombie PCs, but it's ironic that Verizon isn't controlling their own zombie PC traffic before blocking other ISPs SMTP packets.

Once again, you have to look at the time period of these "studies". Pretty much ANYTHING produced before 2000 or so is junk. Even a cursory examination of these shows massive flaws in methodology. Brown and Bohn for instance, they never even looked for abuse by mothers. It wasn't even part of the research.
If you look at the title of the work you quoted from them you would see that's it's full version is "Christianity, Patriarchy, and Abuse". Note the use of the word "Patriarchy", a term used almost exclusively by radical feminists. Indeed the work was funded by radical feminist think tanks and is a favorite reference of anti-christian and misandrist advocates as you can see here:

http://www.ualberta.ca/ST.STEPHENS/CHRTP316.htm

Finkelhor also failed to include women in any of his studies as is documented in his own work here:

http://paedosexualitaet.de/lib/Finkelhor1986/c3.ht ml

pertinant quote - "Frend (1967a, 1967b) and Freund and collegues (1973, 1976), in a series of studies, investigated penile responses to slides of female and male children and adults. They found significantly more arousal to children in a group of molesters, both female-object and male-object, than in either of two control groups (homosexual and heterosexual males)"

Note that he did no research on any female subjects.

Of Carol Holderhead Heggen, one only need to read her blog here:

http://monado2.blogspot.com/2005_05_01_monado2_arc hive.html

to see that she is a radical feminist with a serious grudge concerning organized religion. All "facts" coming from someone with such an obvious advocate position should be seen as suspect.

It's important for us as a society to get a CLEAR head on this subject and that takes OBJECTIVE data, not feminist/socialist screed pieces that start with a conclusion and work backwards to present the case they want.

When did you try to install it ? I find it hard to reconcile your experience with the URL below:

Perhaps you should just wait until the final release if you are unhappy with the alpha/beta testing experience. The Dell 1100 will be supported to the best of the Ubuntu devs abilities.

They did this on MLK day, with an image of Dr. King that is frankly absurd. I posted about it and put together a similar McDonalds logo at the time:

1) If I was trying to hide the fact that I got information from one of the linked sites, would I have linked it to here? Use some common sense.

2) Being a creationist is absolutely pertinent to this discussion. To be a creationist, you have to argue against the vast majority of science (and scientists). It *requires* that you think that much of modern science is a fraud.

3) "Attacking the messenger" is irrelevant when you say "The messenger is a nazi sympathizer, so it's likely that he believes the moon landing is faked." Attacking the messenger is entirely relevant when you say "The messenger believes that everyone in NASA is part of a government conspiracy, so it's likely that he believes the moon landing is faked."

What you're doing is pretty ridiculous. You're taking someone who has a vested interest in discrediting Pianka at face value, and ignoring what *Pianka himself* has to say about the subject. How more ridiculous can you get than that?

I love your use of selective quotation, by the way. The link that you provided also mentions this, from someone else quite familiar with him:

http://austringer.net/wp/?p=253

"There?s no trace of the activist notion that we should bring about a pandemic as our means of population control.

I?ve emailed Prof. Pianka and hope to get a response on this topic. If I can, I will share that with you later.

As for the ?Mr. Hyperbole? title, Forrest M. Mims III is a long-time antievolution advocate. His notoriety in antievolution comes from his failed bid to become
  a staff writer for Scientific American magazine. During his job interview (something that everyone at the outset apparently thought was a mere formality), they noticed several church publications on his resume? and asked him about his views on biology. He?s a creationist and antievolutionist. SciAm decided not to hire him. Mims screamed bloody ?religious discrimination?, going so far as to provide Harper?s Magazine with a tape-recorded conversation with SciAm editor Jonathan Piel. Mims hadn?t bothered to tell Piel that the conversation was being recorded. Since then, Mims has repeatedly claimed that he was ?fired? from Scientific American and that this constituted religious discrimination.

It also mentions another account from someone who saw the speech:

http://brenmccnnll.blogspot.com/2006/03/dr.html

Even Tiger Spot, who you quoted, later says:

"I should point out, since I've gotten some e-mail about it, that I liked Dr. Pianka's class and don't think his ideas are offensive or wrong."

Jeez, I swear that hyperlink worked in the preview. Why does /. have to have a different a href convention than the rest of the damn internet?!

These $.75 DVDs are being sold out of cardboard boxes or back-alley shacks, not pricey malls. The workers aren't getting $8/hour, plus management overhead. The lights aren't kept on bright, the a/c isn't kept blazing.

And of course, why would they sell it for $.75, when people are happy buying it for $10? If prices were set by what consumers WANTED to pay, everything would be somewhere between free and a pittance.

How about this:

How about I just won't watch their stupid-ass shows, their packaged, manipulative, commercialized news, their inane formulaic product placements masquerading as edgy dramas? 99.999% of this crap isn't even worth pirating, for free, without commercials, to watch in half a window during long compiles. So why in god's name would ANYBODY sit in a chair and watch it, even if they're not hijacking your set?

How about I won't pay for cable channels which are, themselves, becoming more and more infested with ads?

How about the entire media establishment go fuck themselves?

This would be great, it will enable Apple users to play on websites such as WorldWinner.com, to compete for cash prizes. There's so much software (even web-based software) written out there that only supports Windows/ActiveX/etc, that something like this would really be helpful.

Historically speaking, there have been many claims in the past about various fundamental constants varying with time, and pretty much all of them have eventually not been corroborated by independent experimental groups. So take this with a large grain of salt.

Also, with regard to string theory... well, string theory is more or less compatible with practically any scenario you can think of, because it's so flexible (to phrase it charitably). Any "new physics" can generally be claimed to "support" some string-inspired model. This does not in itself constitute strong evidence for string theory (since you can cook up specific non-string models too).

Here is a link to one string theorist's (opinionated) blog regarding this issue. He notes that this ratio being constant is also consistent with string theory (and is what he believes is likely to be true).

It never shipped, therefore it is vapor.

I am not sure if that is so, as far as I can tell no verifiable data exists to back that assertion up. On the other hand, great many possibilities of worthwile journalistic activity exist on small time, one-issue blogs run simply by people with personal, first hand knowledge of the events and a grasp of English language. For example, take a look at this blog.

In light of this, you would have to come up with some stronger argument which would show a strong corelation between traditional media credentials and the originality of information. May I remind you that to be a "journalist" only two things are required: an original, relevant story and some means of publishing it. With the advent of the Internet, it is understandable why the "traditional" media journalists feel so threatened and why they desperately attempt to paint themselves as the sources of all journalism, in spite obvious evidence to the contrary.

but in the end the consistently low quality of anything but the most professional blogs eliminates them as a source of news for me.

Then you are looking at this in a wrong way, there are many functions many of the blogs perform out there. Some are mostly irellevant junk most of the time, interspersed with a rare gem of originality. Some are boring but by the confluence of events in the real world can become highly relevant. But some are aggregators of data from such rarely visited blogs and their role is similar to that of the "traditional" media: to bring various pieces of data into one spot, subsequently "refining" the overall quality of the contents, so that busy people do not have to dregde through the irellevant. Some are more successful at this then others. But the crucial distinction between blogosphere and the traditional media is that blogosphere requires the reader to search and think, while the traditional media purports to have done it all for you already.

I submit a story in truth, of a man arrested in Oklahoma City, OK, for killing a 10-year-old girl and planning to eat her flesh. He had everything from the tools to the knowhow, and not many are like this man as are the few earlier cannibals that were caught. The difference between this story and the others is that "man" kept his "blog" update until the day before he murdered the girl. If anyone wants to study the mind of a cannibal, just read his Blogspot page...FUTUREWORLDRULER My attempt to report this story: Man arrested for killing 10-year-old. He blogged. Thursday April 20, @07:04PM Rejected Stories like this are good preparation for those apolitical shills that want non-violent activities to be effected by unrelated violent activities; such as how someone else's Patriot Act in Wells Fargo violated my ability to Withdraw funds trusted to a CD (Time Account Maturity) at a time when commerce such as DRIVER LICENSE was irrelevant as a requirement; yet in violation of the contract, I am prevented from closing the account because of Patriot Act. I hear Sand Dollars on the southern California beach are put there by a God that believs in counterfeit life (twins, trippletes, etc). And on the 7th Day of Creation, God was arrested.

Yes. There are some truly strange and distasteful things waiting to be found in this game...

Porn communities that are good include moviefiles, for RapidShare-hosted movies, kaizersoze125 for a bit of everything (dalibor used to crack site passwords on request, but he's fallen off the edge of the earth of late), user riotclitshave posts a lot of cool stuff, some of which could be considered porn, and the show_your_boobs community is pretty high-traffic, though if you don't like the occasional... larger... woman or man posting, you won't like it. They get all types in there, and I do mean all types.

If you're widening the net to include any blog site, there's a good index of ad-supported amateur porn galleries (which adblock allows you to browse relatively trouble-free) at JazzBabes, with an archive JazzDump.

Enjoy!

According to this more detailed post that's what they're going to do.

The Inq. Article Right To Create blog Bob Jacobsen's site

I know of a 17 year old male who has ADHD and goes to a special school. He has played video games most of his life and is currently into the PS2 version of GTA III and the Godfather. Although he talks non-stop about the games, he hasn't exibited violent tendencies. This type of person would be the poster child for violence. However, he's pretty level headed.

No one can make anyone become violent unless that person chooses to be violent. That's true for anyone, games or no games.

I have two children, two part-time jobs, and I am working on my Master's degree in English literature. I make the time to satisfy my intellectual curiosity by pursuing my education and by frequenting forums like /. My time, energy and mental capacity are not luxuries, they are choices. That having been said, I often feel a certain aura of elitism emanating from the "usual crowd" here. Just because I'm not obssessive about the same things you are obssessive about does not mean that my pursuits are less or more worthy than yours; they're just different.

Companies (countries, races, etc.) are not "evil" or "good", and they do not have "intentions." Star Trek is science fiction -- there is no Borg mind. Companies, countries, races, and other groups are made up of individuals like you and me, who make individual decisions that determine the group's direction. People who speak of companies (or countries, or races, or other groups) as being good or evil are at best ignorant, and at worst bigots.

ISPs need to change the way they charge for DSL.

Rather than charging every home user a flat fee, why not just charge people for what they use.

eg

Basic service £15 pm including 5GB of download

then charge say an extra £1 for each additional 5GB

That way if im having a month where im doing lots of additional downloading, then that gets reflected in my bill, I do an extra 50GB, I pay and extra £10.

No caps, and everyone at the same speed, that way everyone knows where they stand, and the heavy users pay their way. Would that not be simpler for everyone.

I have only seen one ISP in the uk that used this model, but it makes perfect sense to me.

This guy seems to like his a lot. It's a blog dedicated to his experiences with the Nokia 770. He's used at as part of a robot, as a GPS in his car, and even managed to connect to the internet through his cellphone with bluetooth, despite the fact that some people think you can't. It's all a matter of it you have the time to spend messing with it to get it to do what you want. Unfortunately, I really don't think it suits my needs out of the box, since what I really need is a pda that has a calendar, wifi, and works on Linux. The Zaurus seems like it would fit that role, but I have no way of trying one out since Sharp stopped making them in the US, so I really don't know if it would fit my needs.
