Not only that but also Jessie Vincent showed at oscon (his 5 minute speech starts at 2:13 on the video) How he already reversed engineered and installed ubuntu 9.04 on the Kindle. After watching his presentation and hearing about all the crap amazon actually does with these things, I am surprised anyone would still even consider buying one.
9.00 get to work (check) 9.05 get coffee (check) 9.07 check nagios (check) 9.10 read/. (check) 12.00 lunch (check) 12.30 ciesta (check) 16.00 get coffee (check) 16.05 check nagios (check) 17.00 go home (check)
I wouldn't be so sure on that, anyone can read a mail-listing Ill quote this from Marsh Ray on the ietf mail list:
I can confirm the severity of the TLS MITM bug. I've had a working exploit going since the end of August.
Steve Dispensa and myself put together (with help of many of course) an industry working group to address it. I think we were successful in producing a preliminary fix, which vendors are in various stages of testing and deployment.
We'd agreed to responsibly delay disclosure to give the industry time to coordinate the fix.
Just wait until this really goes through pisses some people off and they find some "strange material" on Sarkozy's HDD or traffic through his internet connection.
are you serious ? I didn't rtfa but do you have a source on this ? Stuff like this scares the hell out of me. You see France starts then rest of Europe wants to follow suit. Government mandated software ? Not on my box , reminds me of the trojan the german government is trying to push on all their citizens.
Actually it does , if I sign a contract with a client that certain exchange of data is not allowed to be seen by a third party , or the transfer thereof then it does raise a problem .
I am glad to see that not everyone is jumping on this bandwagon. The Cloud represents problems especially where some countries and or companies have strong data protection laws. This is where the big wigs seem to fail with their cloud vision. While the idea is not all bad it is not all good either, to many issues.
What about the ISP's ? They already complain about p2p clogging up networks for e.g, well its going to be a lot of fun when everyone is on the cloud and people are pulling and pushing their BIG files all over the place. What about net throughput , can their networks handle the load if this does get big ? Do they have the network Infrastructure to support it ?
imo I feel this is just another internet marketing fad.com, web2.0, now cloud, it will die down, until something new comes along.
kind of funny you say that really. Ever notice that most of these new so called "stars" almost always have a one hit wonder then you never hear about them again ? This is one of the problems with MI wealthy sick executives just want to milk sound X , pushing it to the limit until its sold out people dont want to hear it anymore then they start with the next "star". Rinse , repeat, profit. Except that today people don't want to pay for that one hit wonder crap.
Thats been my motto these last few years _if_ I buy physical media. Usually I first visit website from bandX see what merchandising deals they have with whatever partner webshop. More times than most you can get some really cool stuff at a decent price e.g. limited extras, and or editions etc etc. Recently I actually bought a special from one of my favorite metal bands which had a exclusive 2 disc set along with a DVD in the case with some recent and past videos for 15$ incl. shipping and handling (that was most expensive part) . They even stated if you buy through our partner webshop most profits go directly to them. Well justified 15$ imho, with around 3 hours of content plus videos.
seriously... I'm not surprised. What happened to innovation? Most games now are all sequels to previous games with better graphics or newer engines than the previous release and the principal is still the same. Where is the cutting edge ? Something new that hasn't been done before ? A must have, giving the player full control of the virtual world . I think back on earlier rpg's for e.g. The player was actually allowed to input text instead of choosing from some stupid presets. Think of this with today's technology. In the end its not really the development studios its the damn publishers and other companies funding development studios so they can have their ads on startup screens and rape the profits.
Direct damages, your calculations are probably correct. But the 100 people she gave songs to, also gave them to 100 people, exponentially.
IANAL but I dont think that is justifiable, the MI would then have to call those other file sharers to the witness stand, also which they could plead the 5th ? Because it would indite themselves ?

and next thing will be company xyz etching commercials , or marketing crap into it.
only a total of 5m live in finland . So something is wrong with that calculation.
probably not since Sarkozy gets kickbacks from the french entertainment industry.
