  1. We are already slaves to corporations... on Is The U.S. No Longer The Choice For Freedom? · · Score: 1

    Through our dependence upon their products. They are just tightening the leash.

  2. Re:"You can't make a secure watermark" on More On The SDMI Crack & Why Digital Sigs Are Not · · Score: 1

    They have the original, you do not. They measure some property of the final signal. They make inaudible changes to the original signal such that the measurment of the property of the final signal is the watermark. If you don't have the original, there is no guarantee you can find the watermark. Making this watermark so that is survives lossy compression and such is more difficult.

  3. Re:90 bits per second per Hz? on VMSK/2 Promises 5 Times More Bandwidth · · Score: 1

    Well actually since it's per Hz and Hz is per second, it would be 90 bits per second * second, or just 90 bits. But it's more informative to leave it at 90 bits per second per Hz.

  4. Japanese == RPN on English Language And Its Effect On Programming? · · Score: 2

    In Japanese both the object and subject are given before the verb. I think this probably makes RPN seem a bit more natural to Japanese speakers. Although humans have a very limited stack depth, before a sentence becomes difficult to follow. I can see assembly formated like:

    Loc1, Loc2 MOV
    Loc2, Reg1 ADD

  5. They should just put out decoy models. on Apple Sues To Stop Leaks · · Score: 1

    I think they should just serendipitously leak fake models and flood the gossip channel. It would be a lot more fun, and fun spirited, then a bunch of lousy lawsuits.

  6. Re:This is not like apt on Microsoft Patents Package Management · · Score: 1

    "And even if it would be considered the same thing then apt/dpkg did have this functionaly long before Microsoft applied for the patent." Although, the issue is not when they applied for the patent, but when they started the development.

  7. Is it worth the cost? on Is A Public Wireless Internet Possible? · · Score: 1

    Radio Bandwidth is a national treasure, and I would certainly hope any plan to give away this bandwidth to the "people" would also consider that it is also taking the revenue from it's lease away from the "people". Frankly, I doubt the benifit could ever outweight the cost especially when the cost of policing this free spectrum is factored in.
