    "The publishing community does not believe that the public should have the same rights in the electronic world," Kranich says.


    Is there presidence for this?

    Dont we have the same rights?

    Cant we make a copy of a book we own with OCR software as a back up?

    Next she will say that if your learning to speak german from a book from a publisher she represents you wont be able to say anything over the internet in german. That would be giving away information, and you dont want that.

  13. I stopped using them. on Amazon Starts 'Tip Jar' System · · Score: 3

    I once bought many a things from amazon, but no more. Why would anyone want to buy from them? I can name off many places that have the same products at a cheaper price. Most of all the part they seem to love to sell is the private data of users, thats way too much to pay for a service like that. So how many slashdot users use them and care that they are being sold as stats? And how many of you just buy natalie portman dolls only to send them back and throw off their demographics?

  19. Last night. on FreeBSD 4.1.1 vs. Linux 2.4 · · Score: 2

    I installed freebsd on a box and I couldnt get the newest version of apache for it... This is why I will be using linux, I would rather have it be BSD, but its sad that I couldnt get the newest version of php either, this bugged me. I also couldnt log in as root via ssh, why? I like BSD, but I really like the idea of linux, its so much easier and the software is more current. Then again BSD is rock solid and their version of apache isnt always going to have the same bugs as the other ports... What do you guys/girls think? should I just use bsd, or should I use linux with the new kernel? Where can I get ISO's for the dist. you suggest? Do they come as secure by default? I can install Freebsd and have it be secure with nothing open, redhat, well it cant. I would like to set up a linux box for a server, but it doesnt seem to want to happen with out much work, and I know that people will argue about how easy it is with linux, but thats not always true. Can anyone help?

    I would want all of the above. But if you do it, make sure you use all open source software. Irc would be nice, but if you have normal users for patients, it would be best to have some sort of java applet or html version of the chat... The BB is a great idea. Video conferencing is a nice thought, but is it a good idea?
