  1. Re:Have to publish it in the right place on How Do I Put an Invention Into the Public Domain? · · Score: 1

    Now let's relax. Let's keep in mind this is a digital file that he wants in the public domain, as such it can be copied as many times as necessary! Multiple filenames for all! *THAT'S* how you make sure it's widely disseminated. Many filenames.

  2. Re:Bronze: Over 100 Chart Toppers $9.99/month on Canadian Songwriters' Collective Licensing Bid Goes Voluntary · · Score: 1

    Is Rogers like Canada's evil overlord? I was in Toronto recently and they were EVERYWHERE. It'd be great if it was across all music, as in you're good to go for whatever you want. Opt-in makes more sense though. Higher fee, but more targeted. I'd pay monthly for unlimited DRM-Free music.

  3. Re:Ummm yes... on It's Not the 15th Birthday of Linux · · Score: 1

    Right... the masses... Lets perform a psychology "experiment" here. Ask any non-geek what version number of any piece of software they are running. Hell, ask them for the name of that software. Most cannot answer either. Generally, "the masses" only know a couple things "this is my internet", "this is how I type stuff", "this is how I email", etc.

    So, so very true. I don't know why people don't realize this more often when discussing or even designing software. Even to a lot of Firefox users, Firefox is just 'internet' or 'FoxFire' and firefox is still a relatively nerd/geek-based program.

  4. Re:Not according to Kaz Hirai on Game Publishers Pressuring Sony For PS3 Price Cut · · Score: 1

    That's horribly debatable. Sony is trying to make sure all you need is your TV, your PS3 and your 5.1 system. It's intended to be much more than a game console. That's kind of like saying a PC is a computation device. OK, so this example may be a little extreme.

  5. Seriously.. on Homebrew Microcontroller Laptop, Made of Wood · · Score: 1

    That's awesome. That's all I really have to say. A portable pong and text editing machine.
