it would be interesting to watch Republicans publicly attempt to defend copyright protections for pornography.
I see the following being said in a dark alley to republicans and democrats alike
Hmm senator I'm sure you will support this copyright on porn or this clip of you and Mrs DDelicious might get onto the internet.
I think they will get lots of support from washington and anywhere else they need it
there are GUI utilities just for these tasks however most normal people i.e. non slashdot crowd wouldn't know what the extension meant and for them extensions are turned off/not visible as they cause more headaches than they solve. Actually for them the old OS9 creator/type codes were much better. remember for the great majority of humans - ignorance is bliss.
ACCC (Australian Competition and Consumer Commission) made a decision that region encoding violates the trade practises act and that means all players in australia must either be region free or come with the instructions to make it region free (usually a crappy photocopied piece of paper slipped into the box at the last second). you should ask apple for the same
This only applies when you can get cheap labour i.e. a teenager that wants this job and has dropped out of school, these days they are all to good for that or at least smart enough to realise while still in school the parents are willing to pay the bills. In the caregiver scenario this would need to occur during school hours, limiting available workforce.
My problem is that I must join the union in my industry and there is only one. Consider - If I could only by my product from one company it would be called a monopoly and likely be broken up. Also a company cannot interfere with another companies business except in fair competition, however a union can say don't work for them even if they pay great and treat you well, without repercussion. Additionally Union leaders are in it for themselves not the rank and file.
No F U Labor Party who proposes this internet censorship and other F Upped policies without any thought to consequences other than how much money can it raise. These guys think like **AA types (they really love getting on TV with artists supplied by labels) where 200,000 apps means they will get 200,000 applications for classification avg $1000 makes $200,0000,000 but when reality bites most apps will be removed from the market in AU resulting in very little for classification and less TAX revenue from profits earned mostly likely losing more than gained
Your chance AU citizens is Saturday and vote them out and no green vote for the its only a proxy for the labor party The clue is that the greens are heavily funded by the unions and send all their preferences to Labor
The problem is the $43B when its not an urgent expense now and will still not make that much of a difference to real speeds.
70% of internet traffic in australia comes from overseas through what is essentially small pipes. Additionally the pace of technology change is such that wireless is a more desirable solution for consumers already. And from someone who has watched technology for at least 30 years, Get your upgrade when you absolutely need it as technology only gets Cheaper, Faster, Better.
As a point of interest in my Sydney home I've had a optical fibre line ready to run since 1985, we found it when we added extra lines in 1995 (only needs final installation and connection) to date the only reason I haven't done this is the cost and charges quoted by Telstra (51% government owned formerly 100%) are ridiculous. Anyone who believes after we pay $43B for Gigabit fibre it will free or even cheap is smoking the funny stuff
No voting Green means finding their backroom deal includes trading a huge Emmisions Tax (what the greens want) for a internet filter (what labour wants)
Actually this would be a simple algorithm based on producing combination and permutations easily translated into most computer languages. Add in samples from all known natural sound sources. When asked to print it out you will be able to (of course several planets of trees will go in the process, or be a little more clever and write a search routine that could play any section thus proving that any music currently written is merely replicating and synthesising the pure music of the universe - Mathematics
Sorry, but I don't blame people for pirating $1,000 software because unless it's software that allows you to print money, NO program is worth that much.
That is just rubbish why you may ask ?
A programmer costs 100k per year on average (its not just wages there are taxes, equipment, rent for the space they take up, etc.)
A simple scenario that programmer is contracted to write a program for a one-off client which takes a year to design, program and test. that software is worth the 100k at least!
Not all software is $5 Shareware and not all software has mass market appeal.
which I often find confusing despite my degree in computer science and specialisation in UI design
So did you apply to work at Apple? a company known for its UI design! How quickly did they reject your application.
Reading your post I would have.
I agree to the post below that it wasn't meant for you but if UI design is your specialty you should still "Get It" as you should be able to design for others not for yourself

Only on droid 2, droid 1 you just flash a rom that is already rooted on to the phone.
So 99% of the population has the equipment and knowledge to do this ?? No they will just get the iPhone and use it !!
It costs this much to fix them? and is it Austrian or Australian Mega rich Businessman ? being a UK not US source might actually be Australian
No. He disproved the ability to perceive reality.
Perception is reality
Not jealous, this is why copyrights should be limited to 7-14yrs Lucas would have to create something new instead of rerelease

The bigger they are the harder they fall or in encryption the more complicated the easier to crack

AM radio is also dying.
Mandatory AM Radio is next step.
No AM radio usually has interesting talk shows picking up politician mistakes helping inform the voters AM will never be mandated for inclusion
How about the liberal democrats

No they should be hung on a 20' pole for all to see. Photographs should be distributed to all newspapers.
and with the facebook generation. They would say "Cool look at me, I'm in the paper" the problem with many of these types is they have no shame

I see they forgot to turn on the deflector shield
It costs money to receive a cell call. If I want you to have my phone number, I'll give it to you.
Do you pay to receive you mail as well, I thought that went out in the 1800's
