Public CD Copying Machine in Australia
kanad writes: "With all the news of banning cd burners, taxing blank CD-Rs, DMCA, and whatnot in the U.S., here's a breather from Australia. Some stores have installed coin-operated CD copying machines. Basically it's very simple: put the CD to be copied and a blank CD in two different slots and drop your coins and Presto! In 10 minutes you get a copy. It even bypasses some anti-copying measures. ... Obviously the burden of not violating copyright rests with the user under Australian law, which is the same as that applied to photocopiers. Today evening I saw the machine and it's really cool. Wonder what would happen to this machine in U.S. and Europe."
I just heard the sad news on talk radio. Palestinian terrorist Yasser Arafat was found dead in his West Bank home this morning. There weren't any more details. I'm sure the whole Slashdot community will miss him -- even if you weren't suicide bombed by one of his terrorist minions, there's no denying his contributions to international terrorism. Truly an modern-day icon. He will be missed :(
You DARE!!! to critise the darling and most revered Miss Minogue!
May your hotpants split and turn to dust in public!

If the Israelis kill Arafat, which they so desperately want to do, they will trigger a war that will engulf the entire Middle East. First Egypt, then Syria, Jordan, and even the Iraqis will all join in and, though they may be defeated, inflict massive casualties on Israeli.
BTW, the only way the US will care about it is if gas prices skyrocket to $5.00/gallon, making it expensive for them to fill up their land barges and SUVs. Then you might see a few more Yanks paying attention.

You fucking terrorist bitch. "Let's napalm Bush"? Is that supposed to be a joke? If so, it is decidedly NOT funny and you deserve to have the shit kicked out of you for it. If not, then you should be taken out for execution.
Let me guess -- you're either a fucking taliban, a fucking al qaeda, a fucking israeli, or a fucking palestinian. Or a sympathizer thereof. Go kill yourself, cocksmoker.
Moderators, please mod down this terrorist sympathizing scumbag motherfucker's comment into the gutter where it belongs.

they were put there by a man
In a factory downtown
If I had my little way,
I'd have leeches suck me dry every day

Good. The planet will cleanse itself of Islam one country at a time, and the world will be a better place for it. Who says evolution doesn't favor the stronger species?
Or, of course, the planet might cleanse itself of humanity in one go. You may be mistaken as to which species evolution favours, it doesn't have to be us (and unlike you, I don't consider someone from a different country or religion a different species).
Islam is a lie.
And Christianity isn't?
I guess that's why one can post as AC, even though this guy/gal did not.

Informative?!? C'mon moderators! This was funny, you know, FUNNY! As in Jerry Springer or something not informatives, that's what you sometimes see at Discovery Channel
