  1. Fair shake on GPL 3.0 Concerns in Embedded World · · Score: 2

    First off, is it me, or does viewing that site on my fbsd box with ns just suck?

    "it's anybody's best guess. Therefore, if you use Linux and you agree to the terms and conditions of the GPL, you are-at least to some degree-placing a bet as to the implications of the code that you develop.

    We've all seen this argument before, and whats surprising is their is the Open Source movement but not something of like an OpenCode movement, where developers would share code and allow others to better modify their (original programmer's) code which at times can produce better programs. Sure it hasn't been tested in court, and an argument for this would be, many GPL'd code was made on person's own spare time, perhaps as a hobby or pet project. Eitheir or, it would cost a lot for someone coding off of a pet project to rush into court to protect their GPL'd code, and not only that how does GPL based code fall into laws around the globe?

    "Let's say you own a company that is building an Ethernet switch. Let's also say your value-add is software, and you have chosen to base your device on Linux. Can you imagine a court case some day that determines that all of the software you've developed falls under the GPL, and is now in the public domain? We fear this situation is impeding development in the embedded open-source arena."

    Who really thinks this is an issue many of the big boys including IBM offer code which fall into the GPL that could be, and has likely been used by others as a basis for something better or more stable.

    But if you write an embedded application and you link that code to Linux, is that code now subject to the terms and conditions of the GPL? That's what isn't clear."

    He answers his own question here how can it not be clear. If he creates an RTOS embedded app linked to Linux, the original code is core, not Linux so why would it fall under GPL, thats sort of like saying Real just let go of their copyrights and patents since their audio/video player is now GPL in essence (at least from what I can muster)

  3. arbitration on Napster Offers $1B For Music-Swapping Rights · · Score: 1

    I wonder what's going to happen when artists become like American sports figures and demand more money, what is Napster going to do then.

    An easier solution for Napster would have been to somehow figure out a method to include artists who don't mind their music being shared, and create their own servers WITH the music allowed stored on them in which users could download songs which Napster would have the rights to.

    Take a look at the contract 150mill for each label none of which is likely to go to any artist, now with this 250mill spread out to say 250 artist who would have allowed their music to be shared, they each would receive the fair value, leaving less room to complain about.

    Under this new agreement (scheme), the only real winners are the record labels who are profiting not the artists who complained. So for Metallica, you just got shafted and your music will now be allowed whether you like it or not to be shared.

  5. As American as Apple Chowder on Science Fair Exhibits: Fair Game For Censorship · · Score: 2

    Initially, the school bureaucracy deferred to those who might have been uncomfortable. The morning after the censorship, Thielen met with the school's principal, a teacher and the director of elementary education. They told him they removed the exhibit because it might make students of color uncomfortable.

    I've always felt uncomfortable with the way Americans fictionalize the story of Christopher Columbus, being a hero, doing so much for the country. HELLO. Christopher Columbus was a rapist and a murderer, yet school officials still teach such wonderful things about him.

    In order to please the public people often try to hush the situation without having to address the problem. Sure it may have made someone feel uncomfortable, the story noted however the problem was with the children who may not have known how to differentiate between race, something they will not know because of people like the teachers whose fears may have misguided their actions by yanking the project. If you don't speak about it, hushing the problem will not solve it.

    We have the same problem out here in New York with an art gallery titled "Yo Mama Last Supper" which depicts Jesus Christ as a naked black woman. Well the mayor says "Its foul and tax payers should not pay their tax dollars to have this shown" who the heck gave him the right to choose for me. We've had about 3 ticker tape parades for our sports teams and I surely didn't want my tax dollars wasted on that, so where was he at that time.

    People only speak when its convenient at most, and until that mentality of "If you don't speak it, its not a problem" is broken we won't learn right from wrong. The parents of that little girl should sue to prove a point being her first amendment was broken.

  6. artist programmer on Where Is The Line Between Programmer And Artist? · · Score: 1

    I'm not a programmer but I would think the information is shared between the programmer of the game, and the artist. In order to know how to create a particular scene in a game, the artist will need to know how the game is to be played, while on the other hand, the programmer will need to know how the graphics are drawn in order to code the game.

    Its almost a give the programmer is swamped in code so they wouldn't be able to focus on the graphics, and vice versa, so I'm thinking some gaming companies have created their own propietary software to allow both the artist and the programmers to interact with themselves regarding code, and art.

    Carnivore can make unknowledgeable people think the government(s) is(are) out to get them which personally I don't think is the case for the majority of the time and hopefully officials have better things to do (hopefully) than sniffing through days/weeks/months worth of e-mail looking for that "one" discriminating message your sending. Takes time and a lot of effort including legal work that theoretically has to be taken when we regard the masses, however, there are also anonymous reports that some 'rogue` (should I dare say this) agents which may already be using this program (Carnivore) with or without warrant or justified means solely for the purpose of building circumstantial evidence for purposes such as bullying, or blackmail? This is of course provided sources are correct, or sources even exist ;)

    Sure this goes into the skeptical sense of paranoia and the obvious conspiracy theory type situations, but realistically assessing the overall scenario, I would believe this to be likely I mean after all who is monitoring agents who are assigned to use this program at this time? Maybe there should be an outside monitoring committee to ensure ethics are followed.

    Stephen Hsu and his partners at SafeWeb Inc. are hooking up with the notoriously intrusive Central Intelligence Agency. The CIA, in this case, wants to use a SafeWeb program to mask its own movements on the Internet, so it can gather information incognito. The technology is a piece of software called Triangle Boy that SafeWeb plans to post freely this month on the Web. Through its In-Q-Tel, the CIA is investing in a revved-up version of the software, which can bounce digital traffic around the Web anonymously, as well as rights to an equity stake in SafeWeb should the company go public. Others suggest more devious possibilities. Security experts say, an application like Triangle Boy, if scattered among hundreds of PCs, could be a way to cloak a multipronged 'cyber attack' on someone else's computer system. The CIA, along with the Pentagon, has worked for years to perfect ways to electronically meddle with other countries' banking systems or electricity grids, and Triangle Boy could allow them to do it without the target ever knowing who was behind the attack. 'It would be the functional equivalent of an electronic silencer,' says one technology expert with wide experience in the intelligence community. 'You could shoot electronic bullets right down the pipe without anyone knowing where they came from.' Intelligence officials deny they have any interest in using Triangle Boy for offensive attacks."

    I say that shit just clownin dog,
    c'mon - how fucked up is you?
    You got some issues Stan, I think you need some counseling
    so heres some more Linux stories to keep your ass busy when you get down some
    And what's this shit about us meant to be together?
    I sold Slashdot for thousands so now I'm a single rich geeky jetsetter
    I really think you and your boxes need each other
    or maybe you just need to treat them better
    I hope you get to read this letter, I just hope it reaches you in time
    before you hurt yourself, I think that you'll be doin just fine
    if you relax a little, I'm glad I inspire you but Stan
    why are you so mad? Try to understand, that overclocking requires some stronger fans
    I just don't want you to do some crazy shit
    I seen this one shit on the news a couple weeks ago that made me sick
    Some dude was drunk and switched his router for a bridge
    and his packets were blackholed, and his DNS couldn't get digged
    and in the colo they found a tape, but they didn't say who it was to
    Come to think about, his name was.. it was you
    Damn!

  22. Censorship on Crackdown on M-Rated Videogames? · · Score: 2


    The US is on a role to censor all that it can nowadays presenting the notion that things which are not under direct control of government are somehow threatening to the well being of the US.

    The CIA posted a speech by Louis Tenet, their director about one of the threates facing the US' superpower status, which went like this:

    Mr. Chairman, we are in a race with technology itself. We are creating relations with the private sector and academia to help us keep pace with ever-changing technology. Last year I established the Information Operations Center within CIA to bring together our best and brightest to ensure that we had a strategy for dealing with the cyber threat.

    This is part of the same government the is getting its servers defaced every other month, and not because their clueless, but rather because they use these istances to push for more power and funding.

    Along with partners in the Departments of Justice, Energy, and Defense we will work diligently to protect critical US information assets. Let me also say that we must view our space systems and capabilities as part of the same critical infrastructure that needs protection.

    Speech can be found here

    Here's a solution for this threat, DON'T POST CLASSIFIED MATERIALS ONLINE, which they don't so what exactly is this threat? Someone DDoS'ing a webserver? 15 years ago when they only had the SIPRNET amongst themselves this wasn't an issue, they still use SIPRNET but now its an issue?

    Violence will always be violence and will always exist and whether video games, movies, music promotes it is never truly known, all we hear about are studies, and polls which claim this is the case, violence is fueled by games, music, etc. I never took any polls asking me questions, have you? Where are they getting their information from? has anyone took a quick look to think about this, who exactly is it thats answering these questions, and who gave them the right to decide for the majority of the people?

    Lacking the control they would love to have, the government will attempt to control as much as they can while they'll turn around and their explanation will be "Its for your own good", well to be honest I'm more concerned about getting better funding for schools, building housing for those in need, drug rehabilitation vs. incarceration. Not for my tax dollars to be spent by political bigwigs chasing the people at Bonsai Kitten because they think its immoral. Why haven't they done anything to sites like Defacation Vacation which posts pictures of women getting raped, killed, etc? Surely a life of a human would supercede a kitten?

    The same government is claiming that Cuba is our worse enemy, are you serious? Cuba? Give me a break Uncle Scam, Cuba is so crippled the only threat they could pose is if they stopped smuggling Cigars to those in Politics under the table.

    We can't forget the Osama Bin Laden incident where he's using crypto and stenography. Whats next are they going to go after Spam Mimmic for jumbling up words?

    anyways enough rambling I have better things to do

    Funny how the Nag Hamadi scrolls (which were Jesus' own words) contradicts what God supposedly says in the bible and points out the failure of need for the church, makes you wonder if this is the reason the churches denounce the scrolls. How hypocritical.

    As for Mary minding she never had a choice.

    Pathetic examples? Is this what you call it, I think of the whole concept in believing in god is pathetic. Try reading some Nietzsche.

    You seem to do a lot of assuming which is pretty boring and uneventful thus not worthy of arguing. Prove "god" exists then I'll eat my PC. I gave no assumptions only whats written.

    Well, assuming the Biblical god is in fact a supernatural deity, wouldn't it make sense that he could do Special Stuff?

    What did Benny Hill teach us about assumptions? ass u me...

    So a deity that rapes a 13 year old (Mary), then impregnates her is ok? Not only did he rape her by making her pregnant, but she remained a virgin, but wait how come out of billions of other women she's the only one to achieve this miracle status? Give me a break

    So since you wanna "assume" then what about the other god's other people have written about, Thor (Scandinavians), Aztec Gods, Mayan Gods, Islamic gods, etc., I guess they're all absurd since there is only one then? According to calendar buddhism predates Christianity, this would make Buddha the only god wouldn't it?
