Mostly Useable Link
The site is seemingly experienced the slashdot effect, but for those who see outside the box: http://support.bbc.co.uk.nyud.net:8090/support/ - most of the links, graph and stats work.

Streamdist
``"Have you ever wanted to run your own internet radio or TV station, but thought the bandwidth would cost too much?''
Yes. That's why I started to write streamdist. One person starts serving a stream, then everyone who connects distributes it to the next person. I made it work for Ogg Vorbis files, but then I lost interest and moved on. I guess peercast is similar. -

Note to fellow Slashdotters... why don't you coralize this stuff right away, *before* the site goes down? I've tried many times to coralize a site, only to see that Coral couldn't retireve it.
Back on topic: This sure blows away any of the stuff I did with Lego bricks when I was a kid! I even tried making an "aquarium",once, but it REALLY leaked. ;) The speaker box was a little more successful, tho... after the Legos dried-out, of course. -

DRAPE: programming without reading (r-logo too)DRAPE is a free Windows program that allows a child to program without reading/writing: instead icons representing instructions are arranged in rows to make procedures. Despite its limitations it can be used to create quite nice things. My son and I created some games with it. It is less poerful than most versions of LOGO, but on the other hand easier to learn. Recommended also for big kids when the boss is not watching
;-)
http://www.cs.uu.nl.nyud.net:8090/people/markov/ki ds/drape.htmlA version of Logo that is easy for little kids is r-logo (http://embry.epcs.com/rLogo/ that is Java-based and can be be used on-line (i.e., go to the website and play). My 4 years old son likes playing with it and watching the instructions he gives to the turtle using the control buttons being recorded in text.

So am I the only one that thinks step three of the setup screen (SpyNet(TM)) looks like some poor dude standing in front of a bullseye?
No seriously, what's up with the target symbol thingy? -

Re:Germanic vs. Roman law
1) I am not saying that 12 euro is directly based on the claims o copyright holders. I hope (and it looks like) it's a result of careful consideration by the lawmakers. 12$ per PC certainly doesn't sound like much. But then I am not defending this particular number, it certainly should be open to criticism.
Careful consideration? Try bartering and haggling.
2) A recent UK study by Toshiba showed that 60 percent of users of portable devices (though the methodology is not at all clear from that article) have 1000-2000 songs on their devices. I am certainly not saying everyone has that on their PC, but judging by various estimates of the number of P2P users I don't think this figure is very far from the truth. And don't forget that software is even more expensive per item. This is my assumption, but not baseless.
Like you said the methodology is unclear. That alone kills that argument. Besides, Toshiba is an interested party, they make money from people buying their drives and whatnot, so it is as objective as cancer research done by the tobacco industry. You need an independent study.
3) Yes, you make it sound scary, but we have no evidence that this (demanding higher taxes) would happen - in Canada and other countries with such a levy this didn't happen.
If they assume mens rea a priori, you have to apply the same logic to them to get a consistent expectation, history shows that such actions are to be expected. Therefore, it is more than probable that they would use this as a precedent to launch other claims. BTW, as of December 17 2004 the levy imposed on mp3 players that would be distributed to record labels and other copyright holders (to compensate for the perceived loss of revenue resulting from P2P use) is illegal in Canada. You can see the details of the whole racketeering scheme that used to be in place (and partially still is) in Canada here.
4) The levy is not different from copyright in principle. Creators of content are given something "for nothing" (and rights of others are infringed upon), because it is believed that the society would benefit.
I disagree. Copyright exists to protect the ownership and distribution rights of the author, it has nothing to do with money in and of itself (think GNU). A levy based on the fact that people might use something to make copies of your copyright-protected content is just another way of saying: Somebody has to pay me and since you have the capability to copy my material I want you to pay me just for having that capability, even if you never heard of me and even if you never even see or hear anything I make. That's racketeering and society will most definitely not benefit from it because there is no fair way to ensure that those who indeed did make the content get paid due amounts. It's just another form of mandatory lottery.
5) It isn't any more wrong than taxes. You buy French wine, you pay levies and then the government dotates production of California wine. You also buy Australian milk, but then the government again uses the levy to support the production of wine in California. You may argue - "But I don't even drink wine, I only drink milk, why should my money be used to support production of wine?" But this is how a modern society based on taxes works. This particular levy is not worse than all others.
Taxes are paid to the government by the majority of people according to some clear and very well defined rules. We all benefit from taxes because they are the source of income for the government agencies that make our modern society exist and function as such. These levies, on the other hand, are nothing like taxes because they are based on an assumption that is horribly wrong and unfair, resulting in only a minority benefitting from these levies and even then in an unfair way. Besides, if you buy Australian wine and are not a resident and thus take that wine out of the country, you will

Links to ResearchersThis is a story I submitted yesterday, with links to people actually researching this problem:
Scientists at the Benfield Hazard Research Center have determined that a Mega-tsunami will hit the coast of North America when the Cumbre Vieja Volcano and part of the Island of La Palma in the Canary Islands collapse into the sea. The wave hitting North America will be up to 50 meters (164 feet) high and surge up to 20km (12.4 miles) inland while Brazil will see 40 meter waves with up to 100 meter waves on the West Saharan shore (ILM Rendition). Insurance losses are estimated to be in the multi-trillions, yet the landslide has been completely unmonitored since 1997. The BBC has an FAQ on the Mega-tsunami.
