It's art if you say it is. There is nothing to consider except do you like it or not. Something has been created. If you think it sucks, stinks or it's a piece of crap. then it's crappy art. If you think it's kewl, slick or just pretty then that's what it is.
It does not matter what you call it. Labels are just a way of describing a thing. It is has nothing to do with what that thing it is.
You might as well start a discussion on what is bueaty.
If the tickets are on sale to the Public? Then It's the public (very large and diverse group) you've invited? Everyone knows the public is a very dangerous group...Thats why many people hold Private gatherings.
If the concern is security...Don't sell to the Public.
Many seasons ago, in a high school computer lab in the Bronx. I would save programs from computer labs Commodore PET to tape and wonder why they would always be blank the next day. Over time I realized that riding the NYC trains with my school bag on the car floor was not such a cool idea. NYC trains were somehow erasing the tapes when they were place closed to the floor. Until I figured this out there were many nights spent pondering what the gods of computing had against me. Curse you Number 6 Line! Curse you!!!
Its MSX you fools. Bill finally woke up and is after Apple/UNIX. Bill is going to take advantage of the BSD licensing terms and roll out a MS Windows WM. Can't you see??? The rumors are just a way to fake out the market. Bill Gates will copy Apple ther take over the world.

"Now the bad news -- we live in a society that tolerates 20,000 annual alcohol-related fatalities (40% of total traffic fatalities) and cares more about Brittany Spears' antics than the national diabetes epidemic. Expecting the general public or politicians to somehow get concerned about abstract software concepts such as command injection, path manipulation, race conditions, coding errors, and myriad other software security errors, is somewhat of a pipe dream. "
Pipe dream... not quite... It just hasn't led to catastrophic loss of life...yet... when it does thats when we'll take notice... right now most of us are living week to week on our paychecks trying to get ahead... think of the public as what Morpheus talked about in the matrix...
"...You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it."
When a 6 block radius of New York City is turn into dust, thats when we'll take notice... at least for a few weeks.
I agree but even the new super drone planes cost a billion a piece. Heck even missiles are expensive... If we could only use our military know how to find a better way to throw rocks...
I never noticed before but I guess some people really use laptops on their laps. I've always treated my laptop like a portable terminals ("...Somebody has to take portable terminal, patch into the colony up-link tower and get another drop ship..." ALIENS). 95% of the time I'm using it at a desk or table with plenty of space for a trackball or mouse.
I really don't understand why you'd want another piece of equipment to carry around.
The "politicians" will take this one out of our hands so don't worry about it. I can't think of a better excuse to start taxing internet usage than a "copyright infringement tax". Like a tax on media (tapes, cd's, vcr's) the government will simply throw its hands up and say something like... "The CIT tax will pay the copyright holder for estimated lost revenue due to infringement and an efficient but small new gov't dept to manage it all..."

People are responsible for the most dangerous and irresponsible acts that can be committed against other people. I propose we ban "people" all together. Stop repeating a history of mistakes and destroy the worlds problems in one fell swoop. End people. They rape, torture, kill without regard for themselves or others. All over the world people are forced to jail people in order to protect themselves, yet the problems continue. They have children, abuse the children, who intern have more children with no end of abuse in site. Their is no way to ensure a person will never mistreat another person unless all people are banned from existence.
So in conclusion, the only way to provide a safe loving environment for the future of our world is... the immediate and complete removal of all people from the face of the earth. Please support proposition 999 for a people free planet. "Get rid of the people, get rid of the problems."
