The most significant element of this release, and the greatest hope I have for my country, is that the people who report "no-religion" exploded from 12% to 16%, making "no-religion" the 2nd largest group (RC was mid40s).
There isn't enough time in the world to go through and have a human listen to all possible infractions.
Tough titties. Are you suggesting, that doing due-dilligence, and abandoning the presumption of innocence is acceptable because the RIAA feels its *too much bother*? The DMCA was written as a hammer, that allowed a lawyers' letter to FORCE someone to remove a 'suspected offending file' even before either party had seen a judge - this, im hoping for you americans, will fail at the supremes someday (if not for other reasons the DMCA is a violation of the your constitution).
If the RIAA comes knocking at my door, I am just going to say "oh, im sorry, my oops" and *they* are just going to walk away? I doubt it. The days of corproate governance are upon you americans -- DO SOMETHING!
ahem, except there are hunting guns and made-for-war-assault-weapons. Its pretty much those assault weapons people have a beef with -- there sole purpose is to kill people, not game.
The Anti-Gun Crowd (of which I am one) (mostly) *do* recognize the difference. Here's my proposal: Ban assault weapons/hand-guns. Register/Restrict (like, you cant buy them without waiting period, felons cannot purchse) distributuion of hunting weapons. 200 years from now, all the weapons currently in posession of the criminals (who I understand will *not* follow these laws - *they are* criminals) will be ill functioning/antiquated and people who's only intent is to use a weapon lawfully will be free to do so. Weapons meant to be used in crimes will be *much* more difficult to obtain.
This is how the problem is approached virtually everywhere but the US (and it works)... dont even make me get into the poor understanding people have of your 14th:) that can wait for another day...
NPR its virtually the only American Media that seems to be capable of balanced/objective international news.
As for Rush Limbaugh, he is a mindless GOP chattermonkey, only slightly less ignorant than Billy O.
And, about the "piknos mooching off taxpayers" - Are there really clueless rednecks like this still left? Earth to ncc74656, McCarthy is dead, and you're making yourself look foolish. This might play in Peoria, but the internet is International. You'll find more than a small group of people who can think rationally, the rest of the planet is not inhabited by JoeSixpack who'll get all jittery and salivating at the word "pinko". Not everyone grew up on a diet of Jingoism and 100% Pure American Capitalism(TM). If youve got somthing of substance to say about us "pinkos" on the left, please, lets hear it. But really, is this the level of discourse of the American Right? Pinko-namecalling and Rush-Fucking-Limbaugh? What an shame.
I'll make music, so will every other musician, do you know why?
because true Artists, are compelled to create as a matter of their existance. It is not work, most artists would like to use their music to make a living -- but that is so that they can spend more time dedicated to the art itself.. not so they can get like "Jennie-on-the-block-who-has-big-diamonds-and-what ever-shut-the-fuck-up."
There is music(art), there is then there is the product(RIAA).
that is not chump change, but what it does say is that off-the-shelf will allow the birth of the small fully animated sci-fi, fantasy works. the kind of fantastic stories that the/. might like to see more of (as opposed to the $60milion jay-lo comedy-drama-romance garbage).
Full lenght movies made this way, will liberate would-be-film-makers to tell more SPECIFIC and challenging stories, they will be able to paint more detail and less broad-appeal-brush-strokes.
I will be the first to see this movie when its released, and I hope you all are as well, THESE kinds of projects will be the ones that deliver the/. the movie experiences it craves.
a country that would probably NOT BE HERE if not for the French turns on a foriegn government and people, for doing EXACTLY what the US government is doing What are you saying?
Ive used (Praedictus' (goofy name i know..)) database. resides totally in memory, used (in my case) to do Statistical Process Analysis in a manufacturing environment.... closed source.
Bollocks! In most cases, the company you work for could easily choose to pay you an honest working wage, but they decided, instead to give the board a bonus (or somesuch).
The answer, brother, is to form a union - dont get screwed while the boss makes promises. Policies and Promisies are worthless, if he could, your employer would put you in the poor house if it meant a new 'vette for his mistress. Ask the teaming multitudes at Enron, who's bosses admonished them to "buy more stock" while they themselves were dumping it knowing the house was going up in flames, ask them what their hard work and "productivity gains" got them...
How much you know, how much you do and how "productive" you are rarely translates into higher pay, how hard you suck the boss off is what gets you ahead.
Why dont you just stick a little screwdriver in there and pull the contacts a little closer together? sheesh, nothing worse than a guy who cant do a little home repair.
We dont have to cut down trees for paper right now. Very usefull paper can be made from hemp, rice, corn and other renewable sources.
The reason we dont? Vested Capital and Shortterm thinking by impotent politicians. Capitalists shoot down regulations to keep trees from being cut... because right NOW its cheaper to do it... the future be damned, they're gettin' rich..

"Supported versions of Linux are not free," Silver notes....Paying $150 for Windows doesnt buy you support either... the same "no support" on GNU/Linux costs $0.
..I dunno, remove chmod from/usr/bin and do a man on mask and umask to keep users new files from being executable... no user should be installing new executable sw anyway... solved.
...there are alot of people that would like to do there own recording, who dont have $500 to spend on software. these are the same people who cant even dream of a $25000 studio in their own homes... what they can do is become proficient at Ardour and use it instead. There is room for Both ProTools and Ardour. I understand that Ardour cannot replace PTools in all situations -- that ProTools is feature rich in a nontrivial way when compared to Ardour, but what Ardrour CAN do is cut out the legs for smaller users. The same as Gimp vs. Photoshop, Ive used old unlicensed copies of PShop but have switched to GIMP for last 3yrs or so -- its good enough for what I need, and getting better.
can you provide more info on the secret-UN-communism thing..?

see here for a synopsis @ statcan
or, the studio invents a 'action star', making there OWN Arnold or Stallone... completely virtual.
reminds me of that bad "simone" movie (w/ paccino).

Could Apple not argue that the design is Copyright, and the case et al are meant to secure their Copyrighted IP?
if the DMCA doesnt do that today, something else will be in the future - make no mistake, thats where we are headed.
