  1. Re:I prefer not having server software... on Review of the Squeezebox · · Score: 1

    Can anyone reccomend a currently-available product that works like the Audiotron did? I'm looking for something that looks like a stereo component, has a decent remote, and can find files by scanning a Samba share, so I can pull music of my NAS. I'd rather not have to run some specialized server program to get at my files.

    Suggestions would be appreciated...

  2. SciFri Podcast on Ars Technica's iPod nano Dissection · · Score: 5, Informative

    Not so - all of SciFri is podcast each week. They do cut the program into 2-6 segments though depending on how many topics they're covering - so you have to make sure you get all the parts.

  3. Frenchelon on French Prosecutor Opens Echelon Probe · · Score: 3
    Before everyone gets on the "France is defending us from Echelon" bandwagon, what about their listening network - "Frenchelon?"

    Paper by Kenneth Neil Cukier, Communications Week International on Frenchelon.
    Also mentioned in this issue of Cryptome.

  4. Re:Corporate Oligarchy is Nothing New on Shadowrunning In The Corporate Republic · · Score: 2
    Monsanto may not be warm and fuzzy, but they're not as bad as you say. Reuters story, October 9, 1999: Monsanto Vows Not To Develop 'Terminator' Gene

    They have the patent, but have agreed not to use it.

  5. Re:They weren't SOLD... they were optioned in Germ on Muppets Sold · · Score: 2

    Wrong. They WERE sold. From the press release issued by The Jim Henson Company: " have signed a definitive agreement under which EM.TV will acquire 100% of Henson in a cash-and-stock transaction notionally valued at $680 million." Sure sounds like "sold" to me.

    Complete press release is here.
