  1. Re:Help us EU-1-Europa, You're our only hope! on EU Software Patents Dead Again · · Score: 1

    'all about the Benjamins'

    or seeing as this is Europe 'it's all about the baroque and rococo arches and bridges.'

  2. Re:Hybrid? on A New Species Of Giant Ape? · · Score: 1

    The maternal DNA (from hair and faeces) was chimp so if it is a hybrid it would have had to be a male gorilla and a female chimp.

  3. Re:Jst a asmall nitpick on Europeans To Monitor American Voters · · Score: 1

    "modern replublican democracies" was not the original post. You might as well have said "any examples of [democracies patterned on the USA's model] that are as old as the US?"

  6. Re:Most glaring problem with this on Scott McCloud Tries Webcomic Micropayment · · Score: 1

    Nope you gotta pay 3 bucks to find out if it sucks.

    Or in my case set up a Pay pal account to convert my currency to one that will be accepted by the micropayment merchant.

    Then register with the micropayments server and send them the money from pay-pal.

    Then pay Scott my 25 cents.

    Looking at the billing section the required fields include city, state and zip code but there is no country field so I guess that Bit-Pass does not cater to international payments.

  8. Re:RH Reasoning on New RedHat Kernel Patch Illegal to Explain to U.S. Users · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Anything written by you is automatically copyright you. You can then use that copyright to alter the way that your work can be legally distributed.

    The reason that Red Hat is publishing the documentation in that way that it is is because to do otherwise would be to break the copyright on the document. Which would put them in violation of a copyright.

    Ironic dontcha think.

  9. Re:I think you should read the act on What Privacy? UK DNA Database Could Grow Fast · · Score: 2

    The UK police already keep DNA information about people who have not been convicted. In fact there was a recent court case where a judge allowed illeagally held DNA information to be used as evidence . James
