Before anyone says "Jabber has failed," you have to wait for the Google Talk developers to finish S2S support in their server. Then, some other big names might start signing on.
When I tried to watch that, I got an odd notice to the effect that the premiere was only available in "select areas". I don't know how Yahoo found my location.
Here's the end result of the industry's plan-- use software controls to make copyright last forever. DRM is quicker and easier than lobbying Congress for another extension.
So because the law says so, on your 18th birthday you suddenly become a perfectly responsible person and you know the consequences of everything you're doing?
Not everyone auto-updates and reboots right when the patch comes out. Some people might even ignore the Windows Update icon for weeks at a time, or tell it to stop bothering them.
Google's "pages that link to this page" (link:) algorithm has been broken for quite a while, especially in the case of Creative Commons licenses. It only shows a fraction of the pages linking. I believe this has something to do with the PageRank code. In any case, it makes their Creative Commons searches very small.
On the other hand, if anyone at Google found it worth their time, they could start taking note of RDF data in the page to mark it as Creative Commons.
Usually, marketing reps don't actually say the things attributed to them; instead, the story authors write a quote for them and ask them to approve it.

Hey, you could get a job at Sun.
I'm from Massachusetts.

I command thee!
Exactly. DRM is about putting restrictions on technology. If the customer never runs into any restrictions, then why use DRM at all?
I admit it, I don't need the software but I clicked that link because I was bored.

Forgive me, Jon

The picture gallery hosted in New Orleans didn't make it through so easy, though. It's going up and down right now.
I can understand trolling up some important geeky political issue, but using Lessig's abuse testimony in a personal attack against him is just sick.
From TFA: At the price of 99 cents a song, the share of the major labels is about 70 cents.
So 70% of the money from iTMS purchases goes to the labels, not to Apple or the artists.
How do they get artists to buy into this ridiculous scheme? And what do they want, 80%, 90%, all of the profits to go to them?

So, did they unblock those ports, or what?
I think it might mean you have to wait 2 minutes in between presses of the button.
It's a patience game.
I'm being patient.
Aw, fuck it
Except that the My Yahoo user interface sucks hairy cocks.
But iPods are the most popular MP3 player by far.
It was a joke!! Haha, oh Slashdot, you got us good!

Don't forget the times they stole infringed on another company's patent to bankrupt them. Respect for IP, indeed.
Yeah, I can sure see America Online doing well in Europe.
WMV breaks with new revisions, but VLC implemented it anyway.
Ralph Nader admitted he made a mistake in eating that hot dog. In the realm politics, I think that's a pretty big apology!
