I was USMC in 1969@17yo, I sent my first email@IPv4 in 1985. I have never meet RHS, but age wise we are almost peers, and much of what I have said and wrote for the last 40year allows me to use the term I want and mean it the way I want. RHS has the same right, I respect him for it, and as cultural humanist heroes go RHS, Jimmy Carter, Mother Theresa, OLPC Nick, PKI Zimmerman... folks of the global OSS community, MIT OKI/OCW/Media lab... and many others (from Harvard to Stanford to...) are for me and my beliefs/faith the best of humanity. Still, I am not required to parrot/proselytize their or any party/dogma line.
IOW: We will continue to respectfully disagree, and attack the enemy on all fronts, until victory or death slaps our silly (maybe smirking) faces one last time. I agree, "*very* different concepts" make up IPR which is enveloped in total monopolistic corporatist crap [AKA: laws].
You are fycking righteous dude... the same shit was being passed around during Vietnam. Like it was some seriously heavy shit man, but no one really cared about getting blown-away on some heavy duty major cool shit.... Today, cool shit is money, it is still green, but not any good for smoking just wasting and fycking up people really bad in Iraq, NOLA.... Damn god, I wish the 60s were back for US... without Vietnam... like... that would be like so psychfuckingdelicoutamotherfuckingsight cool, dude it is all just BadBizBuz crap that gets you wasted!
Not the you could prove by the laws passed and problems caused over the last 40 years.
Okay, Jimmy Carter, Harry Trueman, FDR were exceptions as POTUS, and some congress folks Udall, Goldwater... a few others, but today mostly corporatist "clowns are in the house/senate" and own it.
Uneducated and inexperienced, from my growing up lessons, if you are of no essential value to my mental and emotional health (family! a/o friend!) or physical survival (got your/my back!), then you (a politician/corporatist/clergy... like fellow/broad) may regret never learning and experiencing what is important to others, and this/these other person/s (me or some folks like me) would use the "uneducated and inexperienced" [AKA: Richard Cranium and John Doe] as bait/feed for survival of family, friends, and trustworthy folks. USA/French/Russian revolution.... So, politicians ain't dumb, but fools (without any help) hang and shoot themselves all the time. If push (a history proves) ever came to shove (which is still about 20...30 years from now)... Darwin awards would be awarded to these plutocrats and their (baby to old-folk) families would like king/zar/... families be genetically eliminated. I hope that such does not happen, because the good and bad will suffer great horrors, but I will not shed a tear for any plutocrat, politician, corporatist, clergy... family and/or their blood kin. Also, luckily, if it holds off for another 30 years, there is a high probability, I will be dead by a few ears from old age and youthful injuries (You should wink at the bright side of life!).
Oh, sidebar, Bush (the cheerleader) & Reagan (a sidekick for a monkey actor) had a few things in common... stupidity and Chaney, Rove, Rumsfeld, Bolton, Wolfowitz... many others. Puppets look good, honest, entertaining, but they are always just dumb fucking puppets of "uneducated and inexperienced" fools. Reagan and Bush were proof positive that anyone can be a POTUS (including a Democrat or Independent), the policies and problems simple prove that the rest are really very poorly educated clueless megalomaniacs.
!HAVEFUN! Chaney, Rove, Rumsfeld, Bolton, Wolfowitz... many others (just in the USA [Russia/China... have their own megalomaniacs jockeying for position]) all are still on track to be world power by dogma4US or W4R3.
I use IPR as a term for personal property. Intellectual Property is personal, because an institution Biz/Gov/... has no intelligence or any "human IPR"; Therefor, though I agree with RHS's position on how corporatist/plutocrats would like to use the term/concept IPR, I reject completely that any institution should/can have any "human rights" or "intellectual property" in a democracy or liberated/free society.
The law is not, but should be such that individuals can license/lease IPR (never sold) for a limited time, but cannot ever prevent IPR use for non-economic (no financial/private/personal benefit) personal/institution purposes. IPR should extend to immediate family survivors never further. So, yes I do clump TM, Patents, Copyrights... together as IPR. IPR should remain with the owner never an institution which may/will act against the individual and/or public interest/welfare.
I use the acronym IPR in a very specific manner and consider the present international/local IPR laws/conventions as anachronistic and industrial-age exploitation of humanity by the greedy and crippling to creativity, innovation, and content sharing for reasonable and highly ethical purposes.
So, I will continue to use the IPR acronym as a collective term for all types of IPR.
Oh, yes, institutions can own land, buildings, businesses/governments, but intellect is reserved for individual/human-ownership. The present IPR laws are perverse, I speak against the IPR laws, but I do not break IPR laws. I will donate time/money/... to foundations and politics for GPL (1,2,3...), L/FOSS, "Open" content/standards/sharing..., and against current IPR laws (the opposite implied is correct). No U$ politician has convinced me they deserve a dime from me in 20+ years. I continue to hope (not expect) separation of government from corporatism and religious dogma/interference/domination....
DRM implementation attempts, in the past (for the foreseeable future), like M$vista... is a path to self-assured-destruction.
Use PKI, SecLAN, AirGap... for some DRM and content assurance. DRM has hidden cost with no added value or ROI to performance, creativity, innovation, success....
IPR should be protected by law, but all DRM models and present IPR laws have proved to be dysfunctional and costly. The never-ending DRM cost should not justify higher kiddie-persecution fines (or corporate expenditures) as a solution. The cost should indicate that existing concepts and far better IPR laws/solutions must be considered as very reasonable for US, EU... international (macroµ) economics.
Old saying; "Two coincidences indicate intention."
The flaming-feuer Bush, staff, congress, senate, CIA, FBI, NSA, TelCo, OilCo, InsureCo... have been totally coincidental for over six years now, blatantly conspicuous, overtly obvious... to all US Citizens... except for the mentally/emotionally dogma-blinded sick, many intelligent marginally-literate US Citizens intentional left behind over decades, and the very respectable simple minded.
The CIA just wants a domino-theory cold-war budget. What clueless George wants is never obvious, but George's handlers Chaney, Rove... and others were always clear as to fear-method propaganda, greed-motive, delusional-purpose, and blame the blameless or those who cannot defend themselves. The internet is a target for corrupt corporatist, politicians, and spook managers.
I buy a media/entertainment product. I use the product (music, book, video...) for as long as I want, wherever I want, in any personal (not public) way that I want, on any type of my personal products/media I want.
At any point, I attempt to use any IPR protected product for (non educational) personal real/virtual value gain (bar, theater...) then I must negotiate with the owner and/or accept binding arbitration as too the appropriate compensations percentage value of the IPR product added to my innovative, creative, business use. If I, associates, or others make no real/virtual financial gain, then no added value no added compensation to the IPR holder of the original product.
IPR laws should leverage original ideas/content to induce greater creativity, innovation, development, evolution, revolution for humanity. IOW: IPR should never prevent fair and reasonable use of a product. IPR laws need to help create and develop a far better products and economic growth. If a product is improved/enhanced to provide added value... then append the original IPR certificate with secondary IPR certificates that either increase the total value stabilizes product value over decades.
The megalomaniac dogmatist (mythic leader/politician, cleric, murderer, plutocrat...) understands their transient-power is expressed with war, genocide, god, pseudo-history....
As proven by abridged and hubris-edited human history... the megalomaniac dogmatist/demagogue (almost any politician or cleric) will use the most illiterate and mentally/emotionally disturbed citizens to attack, destroy, and murder potential opposition. Hitler, Napoleon, Stalin, Alexander TG, Mao, Caesar... their lieutenants were evil sick perverts that derived delusional pleasure from mass murder and destruction of prior human achievements and the death of their fool-followers.
The mythic dogmatist/demagogue provide nothing, but the victor... does write the history-spin, faux-morality, pseudo-justification (god, patriotism, value...).
You may be a bit_itch, but you ain't never been goth anything.
You said it best; "Look at me, I'm an attention whore!" yes, you are indeed a dogma/money slut.
Do you work for Int$l, M$, and/or are you just another of the mighty clueless?
I have two OLPC, they work great across my *.11n. They ain't my box-beast, but for school kids... they are extremely well designed and thought-out.
The cost faux-truth you spun like a corporate politician/tele-clergy.
The OLPC project originally aimed for a price of 100 United States dollars. The USD exchange rate is down globally. A $200 laptop, considering school book prices/revisionist content spin being feed to school children, poor quality education... we are all better off with more education tools in the hands of all students. No child left behind is more likely to succeed with OLPC then with test-teaching.
Kids can teach each other more in a shorter amount of time then most adults or any politician can perceive as possible for kids learning collaboratively in a community of their peers.
Our Failure, as a nation, is not an option for US children!
How many wannabe POTUS have committed to impeach Bush for crimes and treason, or moved to prosecute scavenger-bank mortgage loan-shark CEOs and personnel, attempted to evict religion from politics/government, demand fair and honest election machines/receipts.... There is not one of the wannabe POTUS I can trust to work for a better stronger US, eliminate Citizen/personal income tax... replaced by a fair-flat business sales tax at each point of sale in the USA... the customer buyer still pays/buys, but no more annual tax filling for the private citizens, and the tax rate floats annually to balance the budget; So, everyone rich and poor pay their fair share. Skipping a middle man point of sale... tax evasion crime, unless the appropriate greater-tax portion is paid at point of sale. No wannabe POTUS talks about the Corporate (oil, tobacco, ADM...) welfare, DMCA/RIAA... IPR laws, legacy or innovative economic models... I expect the wannabe POTUS will prove to be great friends of the Corporate States America just like Nazi-Lover Bush.
Just one wannabe POTUS really for US and The USA Constitution (in the batch)... I would vote again... for the patriotic honorable loser.
So, from the darkness comes light... how very Taoist yin/yang, but in a western culture it smacks of creationist dogma... I cannot accept this religious doctrine "light from darkness" as science. It is more mythology about the unknown/adelo.
IOW/IMHO: The observable white-spot (particle/energy) is as good a description as the suspect nothing-physics black-hole (~negative) connection to the levity-field (~positive).
Remember insanity is personal and can never be found in a book or class room.
IOW: "Reality is self-induced hallucination." oh21
Corporatist/plutocrats and government/politicians, are like national/global-clerics and dogmatist/reactionaries.
They are connected (so damn tight) at the hip you can not tell who is the fuckor or the fuckee, but reasonable and compassionate folks know that those fuckors and Fuckees are all fucking US into the poor-house and maybe death.
Anyway, if you cannot fuck a corporatist... then fuck a politician... vote'em all out, and in only one term.
Corporatism is not Capitalism; anymore than, Plutocracy is Democracy, but in the USA... confusion abounds, because all words can be defined in a politically correct manor turning lies to pseudo-truth, faux-truth to reality, and prophet-profits into gods. Example: GBA stands for "God Bless America" and was used to make GBA stand for "George Bush's American".
Yes, there is much gravitational distortion around a black-hole, which looks like a very light-bright sphere (maybe a little physically distorted) to all humans, and within the absence of light there is much levity to consider.
Tell me again, why is it a big black-hole and not a big bright-spot?
In the absence of levity there is gravity. In the absence of gravity there is levity.
Negroponte has done more for humanity than any CEO, CFO, POTUS (except maybe Carter). Intel, M$, Toshiba... now want to compete for a future market, which they will abandon depending on MF$$$. OLPC is providing what greedy/stupid SOBs would never give... a tool too prevent poverty by allowing learning environments anywhere in the world to poor and wealthy alike.
A nation's economic stability is nurtured by education, depends on citizens learning, and provides for innovation and defense of the country. The USA economy and reputation internationally has declined (IMO, I am reasonably sure) proportionally to the decline in a real egalitarian quality education for US Citizens over the last 50 years.
Intel, M$, U$, EU... many other companies and governments did not do AMFT/crap for children's' education anywhere (even low-tech poor nations). To compare Intel/CEO/POTUS & OLPC/Negroponte is like a stinking piece of shit trying to say roses are smelly. IOW: BullShit from a CEO, POTUS, Pope, or you still stinks of hubris, evil, and stupidity.
If you posted for a flame..., I was happy to fulfill your implied request.
Try netbeans 6... tasty, Java is good, Java is good....
Also, as relates to... "The theory of relativity doesn't work right in Arkansas."
As you approach a "black-hole" event horizon "relativity" breaks down, physics ceases to exist as an "EinsteinBohr-domain" universe, and beyond the Universe-brane (UBrane) or through a black-hole dissipating "EinsteinBohr-domain" gravity... there is the endless levity field.
The question now becomes... Could Arkansas (like Washington, D.C.) be in the endless field of levity?
North East West South (NEWS) media ain't what it use to be just like the old gray mare... put it out to pasture.
NEWS as the cutting edge sword of the public's republic has been beaten down into a dull rusting plow of corporatist values. NEWS (paper/broadcast/...) now serves to entertain the foolish, petty, and silly or maintain the delusional public vision of democracy, capitalism, patriotism, religion....
The housing market crash-scam with predatory mortgages was identified by many of US a few years ago. The 1980 decade S&L and predatory loans, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savings_and_Loan_crisis. US tax payer bail out the 1980's S&L, now the 2005 banks, then the 2020 financial... while the poor-public citizen pays with homes, savings, then tax dollars to make USAll poorer.
The above pattern-model can be applied to Domino-Theory::Vietnam-Iraq::Terrorist-Fear.... The above pattern-model can be applied to 911-Surprise The above pattern-model can be applied to Tech__Bubble The above pattern-model can be applied to....
Corporatist, Big-Clergy, and Politicians are either stupid or duplicitous in crime, I think.
Never expect that which you seldom get anywhere; Say like, a smart and honest politician, or moral and poor clergy, or humanist and valuable corporatist/plutocrat. KILL'em all and let gods sort'em out, I am damn tired of waiting for the lightning strike, global flood, armageddon, or some other bullshit myth to save humanity from the evil&greedy and stupid&needy of the world.
Logic indicates: If others can kill me by the will/order of a god/leader, then any good god leader (I want to follow or listen too) can tell me to intern'em, whack'em, stack'em, burn'em... and move on.
Another puff-law to protect the political image of many fools. The Governor and most of the NJ state legislature are stupid or dishonest, but looking good for elections by the stupid or needy (faux-moral) majority.
Oh, I am blessed to never listen to any "good god leader" paving a road to hell for humanity and themselves.
Oh Lord, take us all from the earth... maybe the next species will do better than humans, Dodo birds, dinosaurs....
I am +55yo. I need each work/friend/family email I get. I need my email-list and S&T/R&D/.EDU/. news... I was able to buy two OLPC, tell a friend about recent medical R&D, do my work with the correct latest BizBuz concepts and words for management and understand TEKchat within local H/S... hacker crews.... The email, blogs, wikis, miro... are tools that when used intelligently provide an edge to an older/slower person like me. I am frequently the translator between management (perfect image) and savant (perfect product) personnel and need the information I get.
Stupid IO (SIO) is all the crap-info I DO NOT NEED! Most SIO comes from management/spam IO. They forget or do not consider all content has an Audience of Interest (AoI) that is far less-than the presented "PRIORITY" of the general/unrelated content. I never know what to ignore/read/participate..., more do I worry about it anymore. The most recent was getting an email (5 versions) about a relocation presentation by such&such company for folks relocating to a new city. I looked up the such&such company, they had a contact page (only) website (new company a/o no experience) and local address (nothing else found); I figured, well nepotism contracting again, but I ain't moving/relocating. A couple months ago it was a couple local yokels from the community out yonder that had relationships with local realtors and politics giving a presentation (sales pitch) about the new office/community. Anyway the SIO at work (corporate spam) is about 50/50 and a waste of my time.
KVM (scale for 2+ growth) in server room with long cables through sound proof wall to IT/Admin office space with 32in or better multi-WU/QSXGA/HDMI monitor, try Humanscale Freedom chair with headrest, adjustable desk/work surfaces, armature mount the monitor, get a good tool box... so much... so many... so....
Anyway, make sure the server room has (4*Rackspace to move/work around) the required power, AC, easy access (re)configuration, anti-static mats/carpet, take your racks a few inches off the floor for cable runs, keep your racks a foot or more from the ceiling (convection can be a life-saver) put heat-generators on top-spaces of racks... so much... so many... so....
Make sure that your IT/Admin and server spaces are well separated (sound/temp), and keep storage in a room down the hall, if you ain't using it or working on it, then put the shit in storage or file it, get it out of the way. Also, anything with a serial-number keep record of where it is and the status (good to go, needs work, ready to junk...)... so much... so many... so....
!HAVEFUN! Make your work as easy as possible, Make your space as creature comfortable as possible, and neat always impresses management when there are problems, because they know you are to well-kept to be the cause of any IT problem (It must be the last M$SP (software patch) update.
Shows M$ and U$ have much in common (either or both, always the same) "NOT! being able to implement." and/or "showing their previous statements to be lies."
M$ and U$, the best failures and/or bullshit money can buy to fyck USAll. Any POTUS over the last thirty+ years as obvious examples.

"God Bless America" and was used to make GBA stand for
"George Bush's American".
!HAVEFUN!
Yes, there is much gravitational distortion around a black-hole,
which looks like a very light-bright sphere (maybe a little
physically distorted) to all humans, and within the absence of
light there is much levity to consider.
Tell me again, why is it a big black-hole and not a big bright-spot?
In the absence of levity there is gravity.
In the absence of gravity there is levity.
Negroponte has done more for humanity than any CEO, CFO, POTUS (except maybe Carter). Intel, M$, Toshiba ... now want to compete for a future market, which they will abandon depending on MF$$$. OLPC is providing what greedy/stupid SOBs would never give ... a tool too prevent poverty by allowing learning environments anywhere in the world to poor and wealthy alike.
... many other companies and governments did not do AMFT/crap for children's' education anywhere (even low-tech poor nations). To compare Intel/CEO/POTUS & OLPC/Negroponte is like a stinking piece of shit trying to say roses are smelly. IOW: BullShit from a CEO, POTUS, Pope, or you still stinks of hubris, evil, and stupidity.
..., I was happy to fulfill your implied request.
A nation's economic stability is nurtured by education, depends on citizens learning, and provides for innovation and defense of the country. The USA economy and reputation internationally has declined (IMO, I am reasonably sure) proportionally to the decline in a real egalitarian quality education for US Citizens over the last 50 years.
Intel, M$, U$, EU
If you posted for a flame
Try netbeans 6 ... tasty, Java is good, Java is good ....
... "The theory of relativity doesn't work right in Arkansas."
... there is the endless levity field.
... Could Arkansas (like Washington, D.C.) be in the endless field of levity?
Also, as relates to
As you approach a "black-hole" event horizon "relativity" breaks down, physics ceases to exist as an "EinsteinBohr-domain" universe, and beyond the Universe-brane (UBrane) or through a black-hole dissipating "EinsteinBohr-domain" gravity
The question now becomes
North East West South (NEWS) media ain't what it use to be just like the old gray mare ... put it out to pasture.
....
.... ....
NEWS as the cutting edge sword of the public's republic has been beaten down into a dull rusting plow of corporatist values. NEWS (paper/broadcast/...) now serves to entertain the foolish, petty, and silly or maintain the delusional public vision of democracy, capitalism, patriotism, religion
The housing market crash-scam with predatory mortgages was identified by many of US a few years ago. The 1980 decade S&L and predatory loans, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savings_and_Loan_crisis. US tax payer bail out the 1980's S&L, now the 2005 banks, then the 2020 financial... while the poor-public citizen pays with homes, savings, then tax dollars to make USAll poorer.

Corporatist, Big-Clergy, and Politicians are either stupid or duplicitous in crime, I think.
Never expect that which you seldom get anywhere; Say like, a smart and honest politician, or moral and poor clergy, or humanist and valuable corporatist/plutocrat. KILL'em all and let gods sort'em out, I am damn tired of waiting for the lightning strike, global flood, armageddon, or some other bullshit myth to save humanity from the evil&greedy and stupid&needy of the world.
... and move on.
... maybe the next species will do better than humans, Dodo birds, dinosaurs ....
Logic indicates: If others can kill me by the will/order of a god/leader, then any good god leader (I want to follow or listen too) can tell me to intern'em, whack'em, stack'em, burn'em
Another puff-law to protect the political image of many fools. The Governor and most of the NJ state legislature are stupid or dishonest, but looking good for elections by the stupid or needy (faux-moral) majority.
Oh, I am blessed to never listen to any "good god leader" paving a road to hell for humanity and themselves.
Oh Lord, take us all from the earth
!HAVEFUN!
Stupid IO is the problem.
... I was able to buy two OLPC, tell a friend about recent medical R&D, do my work with the correct latest BizBuz concepts and words for management and understand TEKchat within local H/S... hacker crews .... The email, blogs, wikis, miro ... are tools that when used intelligently provide an edge to an older/slower person like me. I am frequently the translator between management (perfect image) and savant (perfect product) personnel and need the information I get.
I am +55yo. I need each work/friend/family email I get. I need my email-list and S&T/R&D/.EDU/. news
Stupid IO (SIO) is all the crap-info I DO NOT NEED! Most SIO comes from management/spam IO. They forget or do not consider all content has an Audience of Interest (AoI) that is far less-than the presented "PRIORITY" of the general/unrelated content. I never know what to ignore/read/participate..., more do I worry about it anymore. The most recent was getting an email (5 versions) about a relocation presentation by such&such company for folks relocating to a new city. I looked up the such&such company, they had a contact page (only) website (new company a/o no experience) and local address (nothing else found); I figured, well nepotism contracting again, but I ain't moving/relocating. A couple months ago it was a couple local yokels from the community out yonder that had relationships with local realtors and politics giving a presentation (sales pitch) about the new office/community. Anyway the SIO at work (corporate spam) is about 50/50 and a waste of my time.
KVM (scale for 2+ growth) in server room with long cables through sound proof wall to IT/Admin office space with 32in or better multi-WU/QSXGA/HDMI monitor, try Humanscale Freedom chair with headrest, adjustable desk/work surfaces, armature mount the monitor, get a good tool box ... so much ... so many ... so ....
... so much ... so many ... so ....
...) ... so much ... so many ... so ....
Anyway, make sure the server room has (4*Rackspace to move/work around) the required power, AC, easy access (re)configuration, anti-static mats/carpet, take your racks a few inches off the floor for cable runs, keep your racks a foot or more from the ceiling (convection can be a life-saver) put heat-generators on top-spaces of racks
Make sure that your IT/Admin and server spaces are well separated (sound/temp), and keep storage in a room down the hall, if you ain't using it or working on it, then put the shit in storage or file it, get it out of the way. Also, anything with a serial-number keep record of where it is and the status (good to go, needs work, ready to junk
!HAVEFUN! Make your work as easy as possible, Make your space as creature comfortable as possible, and neat always impresses management when there are problems, because they know you are to well-kept to be the cause of any IT problem (It must be the last M$SP (software patch) update.
In politics, money buys and freaks abide in pseudo-democracy.
"showing their previous statements to be lies."
Shows M$ and U$ have much in common (either or both, always the same) "NOT! being able to implement." and/or "showing their previous statements to be lies."
M$ and U$, the best failures and/or bullshit money can buy to fyck USAll. Any POTUS over the last thirty+ years as obvious examples.
