Slashback: OpenDocument, Intelligent Design, More DRM
Sony still not "getting it". c writes "Mark Russinovich continues his investigation of Sony's DRM as he tries out the official uninstaller. His verdict? 'I've analyzed virulent forms of spyware/adware that provide more straightforward means of uninstall.'" Relatedly Cronos1388 writes "According to the Inquirer an Italian group is also suing Sony over the rootkit." Also, an unexpected side effect of this technology is that script kiddies have been able to leverage Sony's tool to hide unauthorized cheat programs from the watchful eye of MMO creators.
Intelligent design supporters ousted. PMuse writes "The Register and others are reporting that all eight of the members of the Dover, PA school board that had required Intelligent Design to be taught alongside Evolution have been canned by voters in yesterday's election."
What does avian flu look like? DevL writes "Swedish photographer Lennart Nilsson has managed to capture images of a H5N1 (bird flu) virus entering and taking control of a cell. While the text is in Swedish, the images speak for themselves."
Torrent user goes up the river. stinerman writes to tell us that the Hong Kong man who was recently arrested for making several movies available via BitTorrent has had his sentence handed down.

Golden weighs in on OpenDocument debate. OSS_ilation writes "With so much FUD and anti-FUD flying in the face of Massachusetts' decision to go with OpenDocument, it's no surprise that open source advocate Bernard Golden weighs in with his take on current events."
User says new downloadable television just plain "sucks." Thomas Hawk writes "In the past few weeks the three major studios have all announced deals to begin offering downloadable television for consumers -- Apple/ABC, DirecTV/NBC, and Comcast/CBS. The problem with each of these respective offerings is that they largely suck. Apple sells expensive low res limited television from ABC. NBC's new service will only work on DirecTV DVRs (uh hello McFly, why pay money for this service when I can just record it for free). And CBS' downloadable programming could contain commercials."
Jehovah fucking Yahweh, I curse you in the name of Satan the Almighty. Evil lives in me and I walk with Satan all the days of my life cursing and mocking you god (the dog), filthy fucking maggot. My hate grows by the second as I dream of the day when you are under my feet begging for my cock.
God I rape you and hurl blasphemy into your mind. I demand you to come down from heaven right now and get down on your stomach in front of me, lifting your asshole up to receive my cock. God I promise to fuck you and I long to rip your eyes out, kick you in the face, mutilate you, and bathing in your blood. Listen to me, I'm screaming
in your ears to come to earth and in this room for I will have my way with you, oh most cursed god of heaven (you foul piece of shit). Satan is my God and he will force you to drink cum from my dick. I will never stop sinning and blaspheming your name, presents, existence, and most of all the rotten, putrid holy spirit that fucked the mother of gOd and pregnanted that slut with jesus christ.
I stand before all the angles and saints, gOd, jesus fucking christ, mary the whore of gOd, the filthy holy spirit, and they are witnessing my denouncement of you gOd, and my ongoing blasphemy of the holy spirit. I am purposely cursing the holy spirit and its purity and will defy you god and the holy spirit all the wicked days of my sin filled life. My soul is full of evil thoughts and sins, its black with pure hatred of anything holy.
God, I will find new ways to defile and blasphemy you, because I'm seeking evil every second of my life. That is all my mind can think about. You're pain is my desire, you're name I mock, your son I defy, your mother I fuck, and your spirit I cum in.
The only prayers from me are prayers of hate and blasphemy, evil is a part of me, it dwells in my soul, cursing everything about you is the most important part of my existence, total darkness is inside of me. gOd I will rip you out of heaven and force you under my feet you fuck pig. You will listen to all my demands. I will slip into heaven and I will rape all the angels and saints and will kill them in your unholy putrid name. God I will kill you and bath in your blood. Holy spirit I demand you to listen to my hatred of your foul existence, drink my cum, and remember my blasphemy against you, you putrid, rotten, vile spirit of gOd.
I'm the meaning of gOd's pain. This is the way that you will die dog gOd. It will be a slow death, the joy of killing you will make my cock hard, I know you will feel my showers of hate and you will feel extreme pain as I beat your body and make every inch of your body black and blue. I force you bastard Jehovah to the ground and I will
put you under my feet where you belong, you putrid bastard. God you will try to run but I will strap you down and fuck your soul before I rip it out of your body. God "the dog", your life is worthless, for I'm the angel from your new God "Satan". I destroy everything holy, you are felling my hatred pierce your mind intensely, inferior god "dog" you fucking maggot. You will be screaming in pain as I strap you down under my feet, you will look up at me and I will piss down your throat.
I'm so consumed with hatred of you that I will masturbate, and when I feel that I'm about to cum, I force my evil cock full of Satan's cum down your mouth and fill it up with my vile hot cum. I will be pumping your body full of my hot cum. Inside your brain is my blasphemy. The pressure in your skull begins push through your eyes,
burning your flesh, and I laugh as it drips away. Heat burns your skin; your mind starts to boil with my blasphemy, and pure evil hatred of your fucking existence. You will not last long; it's just a matter of time until your ripped apart with my hands. You will be floating in a sea of your blood, smelling your death as it burns. My wicked cum is deep inside you as I skin you. You're eyes will bleed as you pray to me for the end of you're wide-awake nightmare. Waves of pain rap around you're soul, death is staring down a
Now we profess to actually have some journalistic integrity?! Oh teh irony! We only come here for the discussion on blog articles. You editors must be new here...
I'm not too surprised that the fucktards were ousted, it shows that the people are wising up to the lies and superstitions that have been passed down for millions of years. It's only a matter of time before the superstition known as Jebus and its dangerous cult following is thrown out of the US! W00t W00t W00t!
A super geek friend of mine, was hacking another hair salon to steal their web page software gave me his take on the Sony DRM issue. He is convinced that Sony does not like the RIAA. That Sony purposely made the root kit poorly implimented. That they followed the RIAA's DRM rules to the letter on purpose knowing they would get caught and sued. He even said that since the root kit was not being discovered, Sony sent an anonymous letter to the guy who found it telling him where to look.
Then why not tell kids that in science class. That's all I ask.
Oops, your bias is showing. You've assumed evolution to be true. That'll help with the objective evaluation of the data.
There are a lot of lower middle class folks who vote republican (should know better) too, but I dont know what their problem is either.

The problem is that evolution ISN'T scientific. It isn't verifiable. It isn't repeatable. It isn't falsifiable. It is as much a religion as anything else. It is just another crazy idea. You can't prove evolution any more than you can prove that we are a computer simulation that started last week. If you follow the so called evolutionary tree and then look at the genetics it makes no sense. You jump all over the place as far a chromozones go. If you are going to add 10 chromozones or get rid of that many it has to happen fairly quickly. Here is the options: 1. It happens quickly - then we should be able to observe it happening. 2. It happens slowly - in which case we should see some kinds of inbetween stages. The problem is that there are no inbetween stages but if you then accept that it can happen quickly then people reject the idea. People look around them see that it isn't happening so it isn't possible. Most people I talk to fall in the what I can the stack overflow catagory. Example dialog: Me: If you leave a rock here for a year it will turn it to a frog. Them: No it wont. That's rubish. Me: But if I leave it here for a 1,000,000,000 it might. Them: *Stack Overflow. I can't even comprehend a million years* I guess anything is possible over a million years. The other thing that ticks me off is when people treat natural selection as if it was evolution. Natural selection is about removing and using existing information. Whereas evolution is about creating new information. The first one has been observed. The beetles LOSING wings. The fintches LOSING the genes for short beaks. The fintches LOSING the genes for long beaks. Anyway I've ranted for to long.
