If there really is money in these alternate versions, why aren't they created as a matter of course?
Why not extend DVD players, DVRs, etc with "play profiles". The PG13 version of a porno would be short but the PG and G versions would be even shorter...
If scenes were rated, then it would be a simple matter for DVD player to skip to the next appropriate scene, no? Parental controls are a good thing.
I'd love to see a study examining industries where companies and/or products are marginalized by technical advances. I suspect that headlines announcing that study might read: "Companies with Antiquated Business Models More Likely to Lie, Distort"
It is odd that companies think they have a right to profits just because what they did before was profitable. It is bad for the general public when they can get politicians to agree.
Have you looked an a honda insight? It looks strange and is horridly over priced considering it's functionality. great gas milage, but as a family car it falls short of even the accord or camry.
I looked at both the Prius and the Insight but I settled on the Honda Civic Hybred instead. The only downside I've found is that the back seats don't push forward to enlarge the trunk. Apparently the batteries are inside them.
IANAL. The linux kernel is licensed under the GPL with one additional caveat- that applications using it don't have to be GPL'd. While he might not be pleased about this exception, the kernel is GPL. I believe that RMS using linux is consistent with his views.
I can appreciate RMS' position and am happy that he has the right to communicate his beliefs. Some political movements annoy me no end as well but I do not attack them for trying to communicate their messages- I attack the messages they communicate.
Christian Schreyer, head of the legal department for media and competition law at Deutsche Bahn in Berlin said, "We always have trouble with people sabotaging our system and people were following these instructions."
Shouldn't he also be talking about how the train system is being fixed as fast as humanly possible?

they pick up the tab for the call: RIAA 800 253 1552.
Sorry if this is redundant, I didn't read the responses.

I'd still LOVE to have a kill -9 for Windows
Ever try PSKill?

Nice post skynet!
This is like arresting someone for using a phone with a "Free" sign on it in a public place.
I have a flat price for all calls on my plan. Is it theft if I install a phone on the sidewalk for people to use?
For the record, I leave my network open intentionally in case someone on a boat or in the park across the street can make use of it.
The code was already written, it just isn't included because of fear of the patent.
While listening to the wineconf presentations I heard one guy talking about a scheme using goto statements.
There was a requirement for "Errors and Omissions Insurance" for a utility company gig I worked in 1998. It was $1100.
If an RPM requirement was added to the LSB, I don't want my boxes to be LSB compliant.
Huh? By default the web hosting process in NT and Win2K run as a user in the Guest group.
Do many people put IWAM_ and IUSR_ in their Administrators group out of lazyness? Yes. Is that the fault of MS? No.
Bah.
