Emacs is like this. It's a barebones editor with lisp extensions that talk to each other efficiently and seemlessly. Yeah, there are a lot of extenstions, so it takes up like 70M of disk. But still....:-)

I was a bit bored today and went looking for emacs21 sources. I couldn't find them so I said "screw it, slashdot time" and then I saw this article. Weirdest feeling in the world, "I'll try some prerelease software; damn... where the hell is it?" and then read an article on slashdot about it being released. I'm confuddled, so I'll stop typing now:-D

Oh, but you can back them up, right?
Heh, probably not. That's why they need a new closed format; they won't make computer players or ones with optical/RCA out. I see another DVD/CSS coming up.
I'll probably get modded down for this, but it needs to be said:
I really don't care if Linux is accepted as a desktop OS. It works great for me now. X, Emacs, and TeX are all I need anyway. What else could you want?
...but because someone crashes a plane into a building it's suddenly illegal to talk, use encryption and use free software? What the hell? If this passes, I am leaving this country SOON! (I'm 16, so you know...)
I've never used windows, but my 233MHz iMac boots linux in about thirty seconds. The bottleneck is waiting for eth0 to come up and daeomons to start (I run syslog, gpm, mysql, sendmail, ssh, atd, crond at start). Still though, thirty seconds from on button to login prompt!
You know, that's the best idea I've ever heard. If all the techs leave, then the internet (and associated $$$) evaporate. We (united) can have as much power as we want! UNITED WE STAND!! GOD BLESS AMERICA!
I was thinking of something like a tarpit. Setup a server that has LOADS of "illegal" MP3's, except that the files are really named pipes connected to/dev/zero. After a couple days of downloading ENDLESS streams of zeros (or rather '\0's), they'll be out of bandwidth to dDoS us with:-D
Or we could just dDoS them back, but that's less cruel and more illegal (prehaps even terrorist *sigh*)
Well, they couldn't hack us, so they'll dDoS us. Oh great. Now we'll have to unplug our Ethernet before listening to the mp3. That'll stop 'em! I can see the synergy meeting at the RIAA:
Person A: Let's hack 'em!
Person B: Yeah!
Computer Guy: telnet leet.mp3.trader
Debian GNU/Linux testing/unstable
leet login:
Computer Guy: I r0073d their b0x0r3. I r0x0r!
Person A: Yay! We stopped them!
Person B: Cool!
leet.mp3.trader: PAM_unix: Login timed out. Failure from box.riaa.com logged. Computer Guy: What does that mean?
~Later that day~
leet.mp3.trader's ISP: Stop hacking our network. The FBI has been notified. Thank you.
Person A: Cool! The FBI's gonna help us do illegal stuff!
Computer Guy: Oh shit.
FBI Agent: All of you are under arrest, please come this way
~Tomorrow~
Person C: Well, our little plan failed! We'll show them! Boys, turn on the dDoS
Lots of innocent people died for the RIAA. Think about all the people that were killed while listening to N'SYNC and the Backstreet Boys. It's atrocious!

Oh... and calc-mode. It's wonderful!

No, but unless you have thousands of dollars they don't care anyway.
How do you suggest they enforce this law? (Are you using Windows? Uh yes... yes I am. Oh good...Good evening)

Now there's something smaller than my roommate's penis. Who woulda thunk?

Use IMAP. It's nicer anyways.
I personally like right clicking on my desktop (blackbox), pulling up rxvt, and going from there. But that's just me.
They would just end up mirroring all the illegal MP3s. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH !
Oh, that would be wonderful. And then you could say "well I got them from the RIAA", right?
I told you all to reprogram code red to DoS *.riaa.* (or whatever). But noooo, you modded me down. Ah well :-D
When you get sued, you don't go to jail. You have to copensate with money.
Heh, I own the copyright for a few Linux programs. Can I hack those boxen freely? And then NOT be liable for damage? Heh. Great.

Oh great. How creative guys
I was just about to say that. And yes it does.
for i in *.mp3; do mv $i $i.screwyouriaa; done;
They'll never know that they're MP3's! (Yeah, I know... get rid of the extension that's still there....and the ID3's....and encrypt them)
Lots of innocent people died for the RIAA. Think about all the people that were killed while listening to N'SYNC and the Backstreet Boys. It's atrocious!
Oh fuck them. It's only illegal if you get caught :)
Oh, C'mon. Mod the parent up :)
