You're goddamn right! What I mostly see on the absurd cases that show up on Slashdot once in a while is that the arbitrators' way of finding out if the person is using the domain is going to www.domain.com. Doesn't exist? Under construction? Oops! ALERT! ALERT! BAD FAITH! (they love using this expression.)
eResolution's case seems very fair, though. But LOTS of ridiculous cases have passed thru the dirty unfair hands of WIPO.
Yet another clueless magazine...

Future Of IDS
·
· Score: 1
Security consultant NSS Group tested 16 IDS products from big vendors including Cisco, ISS, Computer Associates and Symantec, along with one freeware open source product called Snort.
Why oh why do they always call it freewarewrongly?
You need ncurses development libraries as well. I'm a Debian user, so Debian's package is named 'libncurses5-dev'. They might be called 'ncurses-dev' on Mandrake.
Well, I guess I was wrong. I've checked out Stargate Communications Inc.'s page, as a comment in this story suggested, and found out they're charging only 8.85 dollars. 8.85, man! That's like a meal or something!:) I'm gonna be transfering my domain over to this registrar next year if they keep up with this price.
Anyone registered a domain with him, BTW? How are they?
I have laviola.org registered at GANDI, a French registrar that is simply the cheapest I could find -- theyll charge you 12 euros a year (approx. 10.6 USD, according to XE.com's Universal Currency Converter).
Notice that a friend of mine reported some trouble with them, with relation to GANDI supposedly transfering one domain without asking, thus resulting in lots of trouble to him, but I don't know if it was really their fault.
In any case, you should check them out, at such low price.

Defining Globalism
·
· Score: 2
We don't need a global government. We don't need a world revolt against "corporations." Those corporations are us folks. We hold their stock, buy their products and take their money.
Do we? Really? I doubt there is one single soul on Slashdot that has even the remote amount of shares to even be noticed as a minoritary acionist of the worldwide corps. You're so naive about corporativism, my friend.
Capatilisim is based on the idea of competition, the total antithisis of monopoly.
Oh yes, I see the competition in the world-wide car market, or soft drinks, or computers. Gee, I think I'll just start my own car company and surpass General Motors.
There's a reason they call the right 'right':)
Indeed. It's because of the French Congress, and it dates back to a few centuries, with Gerondines, who sat on the right side, and Jacobines, who sat on the left side. Hence the left wing and the right wing, if I can remember correctly.
It saddens me to see that you people all lack even the most basic hystorical background to help you understand what happens in the world. You'd be very surprised if you read up on this a bit. Just fire up google and good luck. I'd suggest searching for globalization instead of globalism.
Man, this is an OpenProjects IRCop that you're modding down here. If he says the old services were a POS, they probably were (I personally also think that, because they wouldn't allow me to do a whole bunch of stuff other networks allow you to, like 'ghosting' your nickname and such).
Please check better before clicking the drop-down list and pressing the "Moderate" button next time.
That's kinda stupid, as a lot of important projects, like Sendmail and BIND, are BSD licensed, and others, like XFree86 and Apache, follow similar licenses. If you don't like the BSD license, fine, but at least acknowledge its importance to the free software community.
That looks like freedom to me. Uniformization is not always good. If you can't read the licenses of everything that you run while actually caring about them, then you shouldn't be running the software.
I don't think so. It doesn't morph into the MS EULA, because the original code is still freely available on the BSD license. The difference is that you can do whatever you want with that code. Sounds a bit more free to me than the GPL, with all its clauses and such, while the (modified) BSD license is so simple and straight-forward.
My favorite new aspect is the cultural assimilation of other cities. For example, if you have a strong cultural identity (basically, borders) - and you are close to cities that don't...they may rebel and join your side...much in the way that several cities/territories that once belonged to Mexico joined up with the U.S.
Funny, I had the impression that the large piece of the former Mexican territory was either stolen or forcefully acquired from Mexico 150 years ago or something.
There's Infocom's excellent text adventure The Lurking Horror, which is a horror story based on G.U.E. Tech (Great Dome, anyone?). It is an excellent story, and it can get scary as hell as you play it.
You can download it here (direct link), as well as pretty much all of Infocom's adventures. You can also find these high-quality scans of the manuals that came with original Infocom games very helpful -- you should always read them before actually playing the game, as you'll discover with The Lurking Horror.
Sidenote: in order to play these games, you'll need something like frotz. Good luck.
Don't turn it on, then. Simple. All this bullshit makes me think of all the people who want to censor porn and pretty much everything else they want on the Internet.
Cool, but...

Netscape 6.1
·
· Score: 3, Interesting
Well, alright, Netscape 6.1 has been released. Isn't it much more worthy to keep tracking Mozilla's nightly builds though? I'd rather use it, since Netscape is based on it, and it's code is open, after all.
Without trying to sound mean or arrogant, is this useful at all? Spending money on this kind of bullshit? I think the blind would rather have this money going to more helpful places.

Quick answer: nothing, obviously.
