That's an interesting point. If I'm in the NT or ACT, will I be subject to a less strict version of the filter? It doesn't look like that's their intention, but I wonder if it's occurred to them.
The stupid thing is, they already provide free filtering software to download. The government has paid for it, on our behalf.
The licence for the filter software cost them $AUD 85M, with only 145000 downloads of the software, and no doubt even less active users. Those that want it, have it. But it seems not many people care.
Dan Rutter brings some light on the insanity here.
I can imagine standing in front of the man having to explain why i needed unfiltered access.
It will become something lawyers use to slur people. They will make allusions that the people that need dirtynet access must be looking at something criminal, and suggest maybe these people are terrorists or child molesters. The luddite judge will eat that shit up. That's the way it works these days.
There is some concern in that the supply of minable Li is limited, but by the time it is exhausted decades will have passed and we'll be onto the next battery tech or fuel cell or whatnot.
There are many things that bother Australians, including the government, but it seems that we like having a prick in charge. It's like domestic violence, if he beats me, it means he can protect me by beating others the same way he beats me. It's fucked up, and it seems people want it that way.
Just call it a software warp drive, or even just include the word software somewhere in the application. Just watch the bastard fly throught the application process.
Do you realise that Jobs himself thinks a video ipod is a shitty idea?
There will be no video iPod anytime soon. Only Airport AV. The only way the iPod gets to play at this stage is by being a remote for the expected Airport AV.
Music videos will be Apples foot in the door for any iTMS style movie distribution. But cinematic movies are a lot longer off simply owing to the fact that the customer base (that has the required bandwidth) is still a small market.
That, and no-one wants to watch a movie on a shitty little screen.
They don't have to look the same, but you are correct anyway, because most of the wikis popping up are just out of the box mediawiki installs. There's nothing stopping the guy from whipping up a new theme at a later stage.

Actually I just read your site and it looks like we're in agreement.
It's also the thin end of the wedge.
Steel caps.
Cricket was something good that the English invented.
I think we can agree that the English cricket team is another story.
A billion Indians disagree.
Pissing into the wind my friend.
Every politician hears the same phrase with every decision that they make. It's just white noise to them.

Talked to anyone from the Northern suburbs of Darwin lately? Wondered where all of Australia's large rental generators have gone?
African or European?

If they consider these addresses to be an asset that other people want, then there is going to be lawyers and dollars involved.
If there was a browser called Oprah, i think it would be bloatware.
i think united nuclear sells it in small quantities.

I'm having oil flashbacks over here...

I started off with the MZ-700, and still have two of the things and a bunch of cassettes sitting in the other room. They still bloody work.
Hunchy and Nightmare park kicked arse.
Ever think they're calling you because you're a 'libertarian'? No point converting the choir and all that.
Take your work with you all day, everyday? Be expected to answer your PHBs emails during lunch? I'll pass on that.

There's a hell of a lot less obstacles in the sky.
