  16. Copyright issue is a scam on Backlash Builds Against US Copyright Blacklist · · Score: 5, Informative

    Finally an article on Slashdot where a librarian can weigh in with professional knowledge. I don't think enough people realize the mini-war going on in the publishing industry and how those vulture are trying to bleed everyone dry. I am a college librarian at a major university in Manhattan. Today I had to attend a meeting about copyright compliance. It seems that publishers are no longer satisfied with overcharging for every textbook and then overcharging again when a "new" edition (almost identical version except for a new graph or intro) comes out the very next year. Now they would like us to purchase a new copyright compliance software that will allow them to monitor (through the middlemen in the software company) how many times we upload any part of any published material and how many times the students access each pdf or document, and then charge us for every use even thought we have already purchased the book and been using that same material for years. Its nuts. Fair use and common long standing practices by many academic libraries used to mean to us that we could put up 10% of any published document and not have to worry. And i know the diligent followers of Slashdot are not surprised but this type of thuggish shake down. But its almost criminal the nerve these jackals have to try to penny pinch and financially gouge the very universities that are their life blood in this struggling market. Very rarely does a librarian threaten to burn books, but it would be a better use of em that paying those publishing bastards another cent.

  19. Garbage can. Problem Solved! on How Do I Make My Netbook More Manly? · · Score: 0

    There is no way to make it manly. Sorry buddy. Just sit home alone and admiring your pretty new unit. You can use that time to practice saying the phrase "It may be tiny but... it also leave you unsatisfied and jealous of bigger flashier versions." all while stifling the on coming tears... poor lil feller... never saw it coming.

  20. GPS? Really???? on Chimps Have a Built-In GPS · · Score: 0

    Does having a sense of direction and knowing the surroundings you have spent your entire life in really qualify as having GPS? or is this just an attempt to make a natural ability in an animal something more than it really is. I know i can easily plan and navigate a route to the bathroom in the dark while drunk off my ass. Nothing special there.
