'War on Piracy'. Or maybe 'War on Cyber-Terrorism'. That sounds better -- I think it'd get more funding for some government agency so they could make a 'Cyber-Delta Force'. heh.
Speaking of which, it just occurred to me that slashdot is just a USENET newsgroup, except they can tell what browser you're using and sell page ads. sad that the web has come to this... shopping carts and newsgroup emulation.
what could you do to dissipate or change the heat energy into a different form of energy? perhaps something that you could store and use against them in YOUR laser?:)
Now I hate the way the commercial music biz works and degrades musical spirit,
but the fact is, musicians trade their song rights and autonomy for that chance that the record comapny can make
them famous and rich.
On this subject, do many artists sign with labels for, say, a per-album basis so that they can get promoted, etc and become famous (and maybe rich), and *then* sign with some *other* label that *doesn't* make them give their music away as work-for-hire? or perhaps simply sign with the same label under different contract terms?
i guess my basic question is, do these bands sign up for life or what? why don't they just use the system long enough to make it big and then do things the way *they* want? or do they?
(keep the flames to a minimum... i'm asking an honest question here.)
you may not have a choice. college degree plans are notoriously dead-set on making sure you are a 'balanced individual' (whatever that is). plan on taking at least two years of crap just to get to the stuff that you REALLY want to learn about.

No operating system at all? I am starting to get the idea this is a bad translation.
err... from what language? (this makes me think of all the motherboard manuals translated from chinese that i've read...)
Flash Vos, Inc., a Texas Corporation, was incorporated in Highlands, Texas in April

distribute the technology and products associated with the next generation of super

you laugh now, but it's stuff like this (not to mention the DeCSS case, Napster vs RIAA, RIP/Carnivore...) that makes me think whether or not leaving the US might be a good idea. It's getting scary. Unfortunately the rest of the world seems to be just as bad, only they've got less bandwidth.
