PJ has chosen to not respond to repeated questions about this. That's her choice. I'm done cutting her slack, especially given her own snooty attitude about document licensing in this article.
By the way, the order is: read; think; reply. I'm advocating use of the GNU Free Documentation License, which allows for commercial use. PJ is implicitely against that.
The license is Creative Commons by-nc, the same one that PJ uses for Groklaw. PJ is happy to profit from other peoples' GPLd work, but refuses to use the GNU Free Documentation License to let anyone profit from hers. Just so we're all clear.
Why, that's a good point! Microsoft could take all of the FSF's work, build on top of it, sell the binaries, and we could all get the modified source from them because, uh, ummm... what's the last bit, again?
How do you know you like the album? You only get to hear the best singles on the radio or MTV-a-like stations. Care to elucidate on where you're hearing the rest?
To that isolated poor village, I mean. I wonder if I can persuade any of the locals to show me the location of some of these events and tell me a story about them in return for some sort of donation.
"You can look for 60 days, but if you touch, we own anything you modify. Oh, and we can can your license at any time and for any reason, and you also agree that we can and should gag you if you say anything that might be detrimental to our business."
We'll, that certainly inclines me to view their source in a charitable light.
"from time to time some poor guy the director might have picked up on the street waves a plastic-thingie shaped like a bug's limb from the side of the screen. (A friend of mine actually started calling it "Eddy" as it became his favorite character)."
"The plot: Well... there actually is one....features some slimy parasites that control humans by entering them through their mouth. (That's the only new cgi, by the way!)"
Stargate already did that one. Well, so did Alien, et al. More here.
No, a cliffhanger is where an episode ends with the hero hanging from a cliff, or alternatively it's implied but not shown that they fell off it.
I won't spoiler the Farscape finale for those who haven't seen it, but there is absolutely no wiggle room. We not only saw them fall off the cliff, we saw the pavement pizza at the bottom.
Any Deus Ex Machine they use to rewind that final scene will be an insult to the viewers. Best to let it lie.

The US C&D said "we demand". This one says "you are hereby called upon to".
Conclusion: Sarovar should tell them to call a little louder, or get lost.
The innovation is that it's lubricated by the slipperiest substance known to man, 100% genuine snake oil.
Silence, subhuman non entity. You bore me.
I mean... seriously, man, get a grip.
Do I know you? You guys all look alike to me.
Anyone? Anyone got an answer?
Nope, didn't think so. Just the usual Slashdot "Oh yeah? Well, shaddup."
I love each and every one of you, with your crazy "But I love it and I'm teh smart!" arguments.
Look around you, dear hearts. Do you see a Neilsen box? No? Then nobody who matters cares what you think. Accept it, and move on.
> Can you point to where he discourages people from using non-FSF licenses
Sure! Published software should be free software. To make it free software, you need to release it under a free software license.
Unless you think he's joining the FSF to bring it down from the inside?
Why, that's a good point! Microsoft could take all of the FSF's work, build on top of it, sell the binaries, and we could all get the modified source from them because, uh, ummm... what's the last bit, again?
>This november, we will elect someone president, but won't know who for months before the legal battle ends.
Eh? Surely Diebold already know the result.
Say now, when's the last time Lessig was involved in winning a case? 'Cause, you know, I can't remember.
I'd like to see you prove otherwise.

Nice spoiler, dickweed.
Psst. I don't really care. But thanks for feeding me.
That's so bad that it's being given away with the animated series DVD? The one that blue screens a bunch of nobodies in front of footage from Starship Troopers?

I'm guessing that Wally gets paid more than you as well. That's because you're a whiner, dear.
>Yeah, Lucas invented falling.
No, he merchandised falling.
Forget it, he's rolling.
