  2. Re:An even funnier twist on this whole situation.. by Soko · · Score: 2 · on The Customer is Always Wrong

    Bingo.

    The reason that Metallica went all stupid was that "I Disappear" (IIRC) was put on Napster 3 weeks before it was to be made available for radio play. Radio station WRIF in Detroit (amongst others) put that copy on the air, resulting in the first round of "cease and dissist"s. Metallica then relised that they lost control of thier own production, and the rest is history. (remember Google is your friend, people)

    No excuse for thier over the top cheeleading of killing Napster, but kinda makes you see where they're coming from.

  5. Such an Obvious Troll... by ablair · · Score: 1 · on A Linux User At MacWorld

    OuiPapa, you either haven't actually used OS X (to which we must conclude that this is merely a troll) or you did use it, but didn't even bother looking in the Control Panels to turn the trackpad off, which would have solved your trackpad problem. Taking 2 minutes to install QuickKeys or any one of a multitude of Applescripts available would have solved your other problems. Heck, you could have even written a keymapping script that would run in the background with no noticeable delay. Or a quick search on Google would have given you tons of customizeable foreign-language maps for the Mac that you could modify; I've seen them work fine on iBooks.

    So next time you decide to write a troll, try to make it a little more credible. Or, if you actually did by that iBook, why didn't you try it out beforehand? Maybe a larger PowerBook would have been better for you.

  6. Preventative Arrest by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0 · on Anti-Terrorism Law Passed

    Canada's anti-terrorism law has Preventative Arrest (Yikes). Means that can "arrest" people who haven't commited crimes -- like anti-globalization demo-ers!?
