Ursula von der Leyen (Zensursula) tried to introduce this in Germany. The BKA (Bundeskriminalamt) was supposed to run lists of domains to be blocked by German ISPs. There was so much protest, that the CDU (probably biggest political party in Germany) had to put her down and put her into another position within the government (I am still not sure why that woman is still in politics, she should leave the country as our former minister of defence did.
That secret list, proposed by the CDU, was leaked at Wikileaks in Germany. That's when the BKA raided Wikileaks's offices in Germany in search for child porn and confiscated most of their machines and the domain (the site was down for ~1 month). Those were the methods they used to silent them...
This all happened beginning 2009 and the members of the Pirate-Party Germany increased by ~1000% in a couple of months, they are the 6th biggest party atm.
I am wondering if the British do/try the same now?
We have exactly one permanent employed IT person here in the company, the IT manager. While the downsizing started and a lot of people were let go, he told us it's saver to be a contractor at the moment...
I love this game and NWN2 as well, because of it's capabilities to create own adventures. Coop questing, Solo adventures, persistent worlds, you name it.
NWN1 has a native Linux client and NWN2(with all 3 addons) runs without problems in wine.
On the downside, I think Atari gave up one it or something. The website didn't see an update for a long time, but the forums at Bioware are still very active. There is a huge community, that creates adventures and persistent worlds for both NWN1 and NWN2 engines.
Do I get this right? We are stuck with e.g. TI cortex for 10 years and companys will only increase the MHz. In 20 years we will see the first improvement in chipsets etc.
Phoronix tests 90% Ubuntu and therefore Ubuntu has a "Power-Management-Regression", not the Linux kernel?
I haven't really noticed anything running 2.6.38 at the moment... I can still watch the complete "The Godfather" without power supply on my laptop.
I dropped Xfce 4.6 about a month ago because of HAL
Xfce and WindowMaker are the only two who have windowmanagers that allow me to minimize windows to the Desktop as icon (I know of). I hate Taskbars!
I have no Steam account or will ever have. I would never buy any Apple stuff. I also stopped buying those big names, because I know I will get bored after 2-3 days playing(experience from EQ2, LOTRO, WoW, Warhammer, NWN2, D2, Torchlight and many other RPG). Very rarely I play a module in NWN1 on Linux...
The only reason I bought those both bundles over the last year was the support for Linux.
The games I play ~5 hours a week are Sudoku, Einstein or other puzzle games I can play while watching a movie or read something. Best game: Osmos and Samorost2:)
That means those guys would have never reached me as a customer...
Kindle 3 here and the leather case with lights.
Using it for a month now and never had any problems. It's just genius to read in bed:) I never remove the Kindle from the leather case...
Agree, I have one of those WM8505 netbooks (cheap enough) running Debian with an Android kernel and one of the Cortex Touchbooks running Gentoo.with 2.6.32 extra patched kernel
As for now I only use the netbook on console to hook up to some computers via ssh (which works great, even X forwarding etc.). The Touchbook is more for testing stufff, but E17 works also great on it.
I don't even see the purpose of some netbook tailored distribution. You just install/compile what you might need and leave out the rest.
The biggest problem for now is the kernel, because most ARM devices have some custom boards and need certain patches. Sometimes it's hard to reverse engineer some working kernel.
I love Aquaria, the music and the story:)
The idea of this mini-game to fight and protect yourself with the songs is great... learning, remembering, using braincells and stuff.

I think is was 127 USB ports you can make out of one.
So if you use more than 127 USB ports, that's bad...
On the other hand, I usually charge all my stuff on a USB port and it is sometimes annoying to wait until the cable is free to charge the next device.
Sure you can, if you can gather enough people with the same idea.
The rules are made to make our living better in a society and not to increase profit for some companies.
Laws can be changed... unfortunately that doesn't happen too often.
What was the game before Delta force again?
You could create your own missions or play the ones that came with the game like single sniper/sneak missions or lead a whole group through battle. I loved that one and you could drive or fly anything you found on the battlefield (until it got destroyed).
Missions go like:
You start as part of a group and get your first trainings, then you have your first combat (the group leader tells you exactly what to do like "take cover" etc.), At some stage you have to drive a tank, then you lead a group of tanks.... in the end you get a helicopter:)
Leading the tanks squad was annoying, you had to schedule the refuel and rearm for every stupid tank commander. So I got a god mode cheat, grabbed all the anti tank weapons I could find and stormed the enemy on foot:D
Oh yeah, that's like a shared key for Pay TV and a reprogrammable smartcard:)
But we all have a kindle account, right? What if the book just gets "removed" from one account and "moved" to another?
That cannot be that quick, which enables hundreds of people to read the book?
I like my kindle and never thought about sharing books:)
DRM is always bad, no matter in what content. If I buy a hardcopy, I can read it, use it to fix my funiture or use it with my oven
Yes, I installed the Europe Student Edition of MS Office 2010 and it asked for the format to use default. Anyway, the implementation of ODF is not really peoperly.
I created a simple table and formatted some of the borders in Word, then saved it as ODF and opened it on Linux in Openoffice. The result were that about 50% of the formatting was lost. I guess MS didn't make much effort to proper support it.
AFAIK, MS implemented the ODF format to prevent fees from Europe, like they had to make IE optional in Windows.
Do you think we ever make it past those policticans that punish us with laws?
New laws are very rarely, if any, removed once implemented. There is no way back after they did this to us. I am wondering if we are still allowed to watch DVD on Linux O.o since it is forbidden to circumvent protection technologies.
this is THE only tool (next to the human brain) to sync bookmarks cross-browser and cross-plattform.
if not, please prove me wrong:)
since the 27.09.10 I tried Opera and just can't get used to the stuff moving the frame on the left hand side. I tried Firfox sync and not sure if it works, need to check later at home.

No other browser had this problem and I refused to upgrade to 12 before this was fixed: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Chrome/thread?tid=5be14c3a63e9b37e&hl=en I'll give it a shot today :)

I am wondering, why didn't use an ARM build for that and use the Cortex-9

Only 3.1 versions to go and we catch up with the Windows kernel 6.1 ^^

As long as you do not have any problems with the US government ;)
Doesn't matter any more. Now no one is allowed to use/develope the technology without paying Apple for it.
I should claim a patent for eating or breathing...

I have the same problem. I tried nearly all mmorpgs out there and in the end, I spend more time playing puzzle games.

A good game to play is to start studying again, I like the thrill when you hand in the assignments etc.
