If Napster wins the case, the case would be used as a place of sorta.. stand of legal defense of similar cases. It doesn't mean that it could be the most prominent stand to take, allowing some anti-mp3 cases to win, no?
In defense of my poor sig...it's from a song. Poetry, which lyrics might be considered as, are usually seperated by commas. I don't want a vertical.sig, so it's totally horizontal. I should have probably used/'s, but I didn't. As for the final period, poetic license. Then again, it might have been gobbled up by slashdot.org
I thought the point of honeypots were to divert hackers from getting to more...valueable machines. Like putting a larger fake diamond in front of your more valueable, more hidden valuables. Besides, if a hacker went through THAT much trouble to break into a system, which should be somewhat secure, what would have stopped them from hacking a different machine?
Just a reply to say that you had a very good question, but unfortunately, higher-than-thou people have replied with their "how can you be so stupid" responses.
Nothing is stoping us from using mpeg.. people use mpeg as it is, but you have to realize, quicktime is one of their big boys, a main feature that if people got a hold of, Apple would get nothing out of it. Its like MS opensourcing windows. Let's opensource adobe after effects, I doubt that'll happen soon.
Think of it like BeOS and their free version of the os. Maybe if QuickTime had a lower grade version that was opensource-able, maybe, But the algo. probably can only do a degraded copy by a simple switch that might be hacked on.
You thought you could attack 1 machine from billions of places to take it down.. Now you can attack 1 machine and bring millions of servers down! (at least thousands) Worse yet, have all 41k servers attack someone else!..well.. maybe not;> -end of joke-
Spoke with a tristate sales manager who also told me about technology they want to use to prevent copying. Using some sort of digital watermarking, it could prevent/reveal who copying of cd's. Pointed out to him a simple wiring of stereo-out to mic-in for the simplest way of copying. Didn't seem to understand copying was always possible even though this method is easily divertable..
... but everyone is in an uproar of what can we do, what can we do. A good percentage of the population realizes whole-hartedly what to do, spread the source as well as the word. We don't have to do anything so radically new. If the government goes too far, we can take things that we are doing already further. We can protest more, have more petitions written, do "more damagage" as the RIAA would have it.
To everyone who has posted the source, you have done a great thing. If you haven't in one way or another done so, do it now. Put it on deja.com, on a page cache on google. Message boards whenever you can (tastefully). Gopher sites! (sic) Buy that really cool t-shirt from copyleft.net!
http://www.doodoo.com/ - the site that smells like crap http://www.slashdot.org - smells like woodstock, a bunch of people enjoying the show, sometimes rowdy. usually smells funky due to the amount of people who spend so much time milling around for the entire thing.
Its like living in a room where all the walls are black. I change my desktop theme quite often to keep my eyes from being bored. VIsual ergonomics as well as the interface's design are VERY important.
One word. "And?" At what point does one release a kernel? What makes it so unacceptable? Please. As long as good stable versions can stay in check, then keep all changes in CVS and let people keep up with the changes than totally adapting to a new schema! This is why I like *bsd. Yeah, there are version numbers used as landmarks... but only that. If you use a -CURRENT, it won't kill you. Sure, don't use 5.0 since it is still in development, but i'm running 4.2 that is a week old.. which means i'm running a very up-to-date version.
I think the number schema for Linux has become more of a landmark than the things that are already done, like major rewrites of the kernel which are usable NOW!
The problem with standard keyboard layout is the inability to draw a single vertical line and split the keyboard. Unfortunately, ergonomic keyboards seem to favour the left. Anyone find an ergo keyboard with the letter b on the right?

Well.. we forgot the obligatory First Post, Hot Grits and Petrified Portman posts.. though they are just replies..

Doesn't april fools end?! Oh wait.. they are serious. At least this wasn't as bad as the OpenBSD-RedHat merger mailing...

I guess the joke didn't come off as well as it should have. =P

you mean complete emulation under linux! Great! Now I can run windows95 and their apps!

Isn't this called a URL?

Well.. since you seem to want compact code...
,'s
while() {
@arr=split(/([^\\]\")?,([^\\]\")?/); }
finds , delimited stuff that is surrounded by quotes if present, delimited by
but if this was true csv, the ?'s would disappear... it would have to be surrounded by quotes...

A csv parser?
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
my $delim=',';
my $size=3;
while()
{
chop;
my @a=split($delim,$_,$size);
print $a[2],$a[0],$a[1];
}

* The university can get 'supposedly' into hot water with the RIAA.
* They are paying for facilities for educational use.. not porn or other crap

Does this mean that we'll have hearing "You've got cable!" when we turn on our cable box?

Perhaps catagorizing it would have been nice too.
