were you born retarded? The whole precept behind public domain is that its public information, the concept of accountability/warrantablity doesnt exist b/c it DOESNT BELONG TO ANY ONE PERSON AT THAT POINT. duh.

only a moron would pay a monthly fee for commercialized radio like XM. Unless you're a truck driver or really do drive all over the country all day every day. Btw, I have a feeling you live near a big city and still want to get sat. radio... every big city I've been too tends to have some quality music thanks to competition. Jacksonville, FL is run by Clear Channel and isn't worth wasting time listening too. I want my old planet radio back, not clear channels version.
If you're going to fight a dictatorship, fight -- waving signs and staging sit-ins probably won't help.
You mean like using any avaiable weapons, such as, oh I dunno, ROCKS, to fight an enemy with much superior force, say, TANKS?
You just said we should use our own force to fight them, what if I feel the United States Government is acting as a dictator? If I picked up a gun and went after a big government, I would be labelled a terrorist or a nutcase militiaman, would I not?
The communication technology (the internet, specifically) allows outweighs ANY disadvantages.
And paying more (any for that matter) taxes is acceptable in WHAT way? I pay taxes out of fear of being put in jail. I can't leave the store with the $.25 pack of gum that costs $.27 without paying the full $.27
There is more than just a EU/US mine's bigger than your, I dun have to do what you say kind of game folks. Its your money being extorted. Don't stand for it.
I concur. I started with Wolf3d at age 12 and games just got more and more violent from there, I have the same disposition as you. And the only way to keep your kid safe from guns is to teach them how to use them and care for them.
just a glorified press release, nothing but hype on this one. the thought of unbreakable encryption is a joke and if you buy into that, you'll do good in upper management or marketing.
how about 30 properly placed bullets? that should do it too, and if your gun can do it in 10 secs, that minimizes the amount of time said target...er..animal is in pain, right?
Yes I do, its the inherent freedom of information pal. You didnt come up with that code all on your own no matter what you claim. Everything we do in life affects and contributes to the next thought in our heads, so your code is a compilation of other instances you've observed and experienced in your life. I could've cut you off in traffic, thus setting you on a path that ended up with you writing a nice n' tasty piece of code to control a robotic hammer that pops out of your hood crushes my car the next time I cut you off, and that code in turn could've been used to control other machines and so on and so forth.
There is no such thing as intellectual property, only intellectual stimulation.
Greed. Now thats something that definitely exists.
microsoft not have the manpower of facilities? are you joking? quite frankly, having sony stop is a sham by MS b/c they didn't plan on letting anyone play their X-Crox. Have you seen the damn thing? It's a book PC without all the useful I/O ports not to mention heavy as hell for a 'console'. I'd rather have a PC I can upgrade to use the most recent f/x and whatnot than a proprietary POS console.

becuase its a MAC and everybody knows Mac people are weird. Trust me, I just got "promoted" to Mac support at a rather large internet provider and all these mac heads are strange. They're like linux zealots without the command line (makes me feel like Luke when he was tempted by the darkside but recovered... from linux to windows to mac... mac heads are the recovering dark siders).
I've always been the first to blurt "macs suck" but since I started teching the damn things, they've grown on me and I'm having a secret affair with OS X unbenownst to my faithful debian. Unfortunately, I can't afford a G4 else I'd have a real computer.;)
maybe its just me, but with subscriptions,/. is essentially doubling the possible income if enough of use sign up.
"We need to have subscriptions so folks can turn off ads"
"Here Mr. advertiser, we get a quarter million unique a day, pay us big $$$"
Have ads or don't. Let the other news sites under the umbrella you folks got bought into whore their sites with subscriptions and huge banners for spying on your neighbor's wife with miniature webcams while playing online casinos and using penis enlargement kits so your wife can make better use of her 'women's viagra' as you wait for your real estate investment to bring in a huge return in 30 days like the nice man on the phone promised.
this worst part is, im not kidding.
and its not futile. nothing is futile. its a matter of finding people willing to put forth their time and work for free, and suprisingly if you look ALL OVER THE NET, everyone is doing it. lack of bandwidth is just an excuse for lack of motivation.:P
1. Are you indicating that giving away a free copy of a toothbrush should be deemed illegal?
2. Who's actually getting hurt here?
3. Who's actually "losing money" and not just "losing ***potential*** revenue"?
4. Who said it was their/your/my RIGHT to make money?
Maybe, just maybe, its not the corporations that are causing our rights to get stripped. Maybe its our being blinded by money and greed thats just letting them suck it away. All we have to do is say no. Is it that so hard?
i call shennanigans on this guy. sounds like a politician. economic boredom? sorry, but thats just fluff used to confuse folks. if anything open source will spur software companies to do more, not less. the consumers benefit. go lobby elsewhere, sir.

When works return to the public domain, they can be recycled and used under any license
Perhaps I'm confused, but isn't public domain, PUBLIC DOMAIN. You mean to tell me that in 50,000 years when disney's © stuff enters the public domain, I can take it, republish it, and sue the hell out of anybody that uses it? The logic of the above statement seems to indicate that is perfectly possible. Sorry, but thats not what public domain is for. Public domain is for open, free access to the information without restriction. Aka, the real GPL License (and the PURPOSE of the GPL in the first place.)
maybe its just me, but with subscriptions, /. is essentially doubling the possible income if enough of use sign up.

they're copying other people's toothbrushes
Just a few questions:
1. Are you indicating that giving away a free copy of a toothbrush should be deemed illegal?
2. Who's actually getting hurt here?
3. Who's actually "losing money" and not just "losing ***potential*** revenue"?
4. Who said it was their/your/my RIGHT to make money?
Maybe, just maybe, its not the corporations that are causing our rights to get stripped. Maybe its our being blinded by money and greed thats just letting them suck it away. All we have to do is say no. Is it that so hard?
