Obviously what this tool will do is link different anonymous content by the same creator.
So if the same guy posts "kill all infidels" and includes instructions on jihadforpussies.com and writes about pink ladies underwear on getithere.com and reviews "movies" at grannysvideos.com they can go track his credit records for pink underwear instead of trying to figure out what internet cafe he posted his "big boy" stuff from.
This does not mean identifying every peace of content by name, just relating stuff by author. Perhaps then we'll find bin laden is really michael jackson after *another* nosejob.
And if you put stuff online for people to read, please accept that people might, you know... read it. You can *talk* anonymous all you want, about anything you want. You cannot threaten 15-year olds into blowing up their family like those "freedom fighters" in algeria did last week. And please nobody try to make the point that perhaps it was a joke.
Webmasters will simply start being forced to do the full content in a flash application, so that ad and content cannot reliably be separated.... and it will become completely unreadeable for blind or otherwise disabled people. But hey, as long as YOU don't get disturbed, right ?
Isn't slashdot contra-censorship ? Of any kind ? I mean how can you argue FOR the universal availability of stuff like mein kampf and the quran, and be against this sort of thing ?
Lots of books that slashdot "fights" for are a lot more controversial, and less childish, than this...
Because that's the only kind of posts you'll find in this story.
Besides, most geeks are only interested in the label libertarian. Just look at the posts on slashdot : they are not at all liberal when it comes to letting other people do something they don't like.

Obviously you could have had a point 400 years ago about no basis in history (although you'd have a hard time defending that in those days, because while there wasn't copyright in the law, it was most certainly forbidden to spread "derivative works" of lots of classes of documents, much stricter than today. They (generally meant royalty) just did that without bothering with this nuisance called "law")
Perhaps you should waste a bit of breath. Because lots of stuff falls under this class of things, and they're quite necessary for our society to exist.
Einstein died thinking his theory was the "dumbest thing since...". I'm not sure what exactly, actually, but it had something to do with God.
I do remember his "God does not play dice" statement.
But he spent the last 30 or so years of his life trying to disprove relativity, because he thought it wrong. So actually he probably would be glad someone finally succeeds.
4. Use magnetic field outside plasma ball to contain radiation
This seems like the exact reason why basic physics should be mandatory in schools. Dear God. How exactly would a magnetic field contain neutral photons ? They will generate zero flux and will not interact with the field at all.
I missed the post where you defended your point of view. Islamic attacks THIS WEEK : 88 (in case you didn't notice it's wednesday evening, it *will* be over 100 before sunday, don't you worry).
659 people have died this week under islamic guns. 777 are wounded.
Care to see the list ?
7/25/07 ( Kandahar, Afghanistan ) - The Taliban shoot a Christian man to death. 7/24/07 ( Mogadishu, Somalia ) - A pregnant woman is among three civilians killed when Islamists toss a grenade into a market. 7/24/07 ( Bannu, Pakistan ) - Muslim terrorists fire rockets into a village, killing ten civilians. 7/24/07 ( Dattakhel, Pakistan ) - Islamic militants attack a security post, killing four members. 7/23/07 ( Kagai, Pakistan ) - Two men are abducted by al-Qaeda militants and executed by having their throats slit.
Note that this DOES NOT INCLUDE IRAQ... ( source : www.thereligionofpeace.com )
Please tell me, how many people have been killed by Christians this week in the name of Jesus ? Any chance that'll change before Sunday ? Oh and why don't you act completely unfair and include Iraq terrorist casualties (who are not casualties of Christianity, but of the paedophile's* religion in any reasonable mind). Trust me, you won't get anywhere near 700.
* anybody who fucks a 9 year old girl is a paedophile. Even if he started a religion. No it is NOT disrespectful to say this, especially if the asshole in question boasted about it in "holy" texts.
You are right that you cannot defeat terrorism. That's because terrorism is a SYMPTOM. The thing you fight is the CAUSE(s). You cannot fight "fever", but you can fight the flew, lung infections,...
"Anyone who has a different opinion, is not a muslim, and therefore lower than the filthies of animals - So says god" - Koran 8:55
"They should be killed everywhere, always, and by any means possible" - Koran 9:111 (but fortunately the hadith clarifies that if the women amongst the unbelievers are beaten and impregnated that is enough. The men, however, should be killed)
"keep fighting until no-one thinks differently"
"Every muslim should fight AND KILL for allah" 9:111...
Note that the muslim exegesis confirms the meaning of these phrases. That they mean that every muslim HAS TO fight and kill to subjugate others.islam does not allow freedom of speech (on ANY subject), nor does it even allow freedom of thought.
Hence the name of that religion... "islam" is arabic for "repression" ("submission" if you want to be polite)
Without a revenue stream to fuel, both the corporations and the people actually producing the culture, culture *will* dry up. It may *MAY* take a while, but it will die.
Then why don't mp3 musicians outperform the revenues of blocked-cd musicians ? There are enough of both kinds to have real competition. Yet it doesn't seem to be going in favor of the mp3 allowing bands.
Perhaps *gasp* it's because people aren't very honest about stuff like this. That would be a real BIG surprise. Thieves lie... *gasp*. I would never have guessed.
If the RIAA is gone, then yes, something would replace it. (this is what you claim)
If the revenue stream the RIAA depends on itself is gone, obviously nothing would replace it. (this is what the parent claims)
Both points are correct, obviously. But you know very well that this is what you're doing. So, while your point is technically correct, it is a blatant attempt at deception.
Obviously... 1) you don't need a sattelite network (ground stations, that cannot be triangulated by the signals because of the communication scheme they use) 2) because they have limited organizational resources today (although these resources include multiple states) doesn't mean they never will (Iran might take a hint from Jordan for example)...
Slashdot Mirror
The only advantage would be if there was a CHOICE whether to send this or not. Forcing people to do it is no advantage at all.
Better buy, better performance, bigger disk, lower price. Same small form factor.
Only real advantage the olpc still has imho is the swiveling screen.

Actually, whether or not we're accelerating it is irrelevant. The only thing to do is to ARTIFICIALLY slow it down.
IF we decide we want to. Global warming, see, has lots of advantages, not the least of which is a massive increase in arable land.

Now close your eyes and go back to being a good slashdotter, mkay.

Actually history would seem to suggest exactly the opposite.
Illegal piracy ... and microsoft's dominance

The RIAA/MPAA/BSA/
Turns out it just doesn't work without laws
My apologies. You were just wrong.
Without a revenue stream to fuel, both the corporations and the people actually producing the culture, culture *will* dry up. It may *MAY* take a while, but it will die.

Have you read the papers lately ?
Before might have been a valid criticism in 630 A.D., but ever since they've attacked us without pause.
Obviously ... ...
1) you don't need a sattelite network (ground stations, that cannot be triangulated by the signals because of the communication scheme they use)
2) because they have limited organizational resources today (although these resources include multiple states) doesn't mean they never will (Iran might take a hint from Jordan for example)
And obviously if the US doesn't have robotic weapons, nobody will *ever* develop them. Or is there any other point you're trying to make ?
I'm very sure that I can personally make R/C weapons (heck, glue a grenade to an r/c car and *done*, but I think I can do flying too).
The problem is that they *will* get their hands on this technology. Whether the US is first or not.
I personally thank my maker that the US uses this before their enemies do.
