Yea, I know. Luckily I don't visit Facebook much at all, let alone at school. I care more about Reddit being blocked at my school. FYI my school uses Lightspeed as the vendor.
Google has an opt-out in ad preferences that is based on HTTP cookies. Unfortunately they are easily deletable by accident. This HTTP header don't have this problem.
Personally I am young, and I do believe that artificial scarcity and DRM are fundamentally flawed. I am sure there are other people who believe that too. I don't use it as an excuse for piracy though.
However, it looks like several of the sources come from Sun's mmademo, linked here [java2s.com]. In this rendition of the document, each source file's license is a permissive one by Sun (i.e., not proprietary / confidential).
Indeed, I just compared two files from the/test/mmademo/src/example/mmademo/ directory inside the MMAPI.zip file with the linked source code and indeed it seems like they are the exact same files with a different license header.
BTW, Apple was going to make the same mistake with the canvas element too. Fortunately they fixed it early enough that the only pages that was using the old version was in Dashboard widgets.
XHTML2 was finally going to fix this. Fortunately XHTML requires even empty elements to be closed, which would allow fixing this in a way that is backward compatible with XHTML1. Unfortunately, IE9 is not even released yet, and IE8 and older don't support XHTML, forcing people to serve them as text/html. Fortunately, there is also the object element, and IE8 finally gained proper support for embedding images using the object element, and it allows proper fallback content.
Zuckerberg is a scumbag who has, quite openly said, "Privacy is for suckers, I AM going to sell every bit about you to advertisers and there is nothing you can do about it."
Source please.
ou must have your head up your ass, because Slashdot is NOT a place full of "hate" for Facebook, quite the opposite.
Yea, I actually emailed Ron Burk suggesting him to do a blog article relating "Cash Cow Disease" with MS's anti-trust crimes, because there are lessons to be learned.
I wonder what would have happened if MS adopted the Tasman engine used in Mac IE 5 and ported it to Windows instead of spending years fixing the Trident engine?
Slashdot Mirror
My favorite is HEAD, for reading the HTTP headers. Handy for debugging purposes, and the output is guaranteed to be plain 7-bit ASCII.

Actually no, it is still there on the home page.
Slashdot just fixed this by removing the first one.
The funny thing is, from the HTML:
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
Personally I want the ability to post and mod in the same thread most. Reddit and Hacker News allow it, why can't Slashdot?

Yea, I remember reading that Consumer Watchdog was likely paid by MS.
Well, keep in mind that not only that Apache is not GPLv2 compatible, but the decompilation was from an old pre-OpenJDK version of Java.

Sure, the kernel must continue to be GPLv2, but the user mode components can still be GPLv3, and it is compatible with the Apache license.
Note that Yahoo is not abandoning IPv4 support.
But that has nothing to do with the BSA.
This is a fundamental flaw of top-down command and control, probably helped by a cover up culture.

I was just looking at the comments modded up.
I will ask this again: Why didn't MySpace gain from the hate for Facebook here on Slashdot?

WebM will be natively supported on all future Android devices. That's a huge market, and will probably be the dominant mobile OS.
But don't forget the issue of hardware acceleration.
And FYI, here is the IE security bulletin that patched and disabled by default Gopher support:

Yea, Windows vs Unix or Mac OS X is a better comparison than "PC" vs "Mac", which really is a misnomer nowadays.
