Psst! Your "right to work" state laws are designed to bust unions, not preserve white-collar jobs.
Wasn't Perens about to release some code for disabling DVD protections? Sure he was. That seems like a liability to me, given the RIAA's recent wins, and the deep pockets at HP.
I'd take it at face value--the parting was amicable, and Bruce is free to pursue whatever he likes.
There is a reason corporations make money through the web--they are offering a service that has value to the customer. If you could see that your efforts help deliver that value to the customer, instead of grousing about the source of your income, you'd be happier.
If you go to gov't work, you'll find just as much to gripe about, and you'll be stifled as you are forced to wait, wait, wait to move up the ladder to the point where your ideas are considered worthy of pursuit.
It occurs to me that to prevent a wobble from developing in the Earth's revolution (or to limit the amount of girth the Earth moves to its equator to compensate) [or, to boost the Gaia's self-esteem], you would want to mount an identical elevator directly opposite, and use each to launch identical payloads simultaneously.
Oh, it's all for naught, in any case. The Japanese will never be able to make the cable from carbon nanotubes. The reason? As soon as they let the public see it, it will become damaged from all the camera flashes...
If we'd only just listen to Al Gore, we'd have an HDTV camera pointed at us out there beyond the moon, and we could sit in our livingrooms and watch all these space rocks whiz past in glorious living color.
But no, we gotta elect a guy who, well, who can say *what* is going through his mind other than the perpetual thought, "I gotta screw things up fast 'cuz 2004 is around the corner."
Janis Ian? What's she recorded lately? Is it worth downloading?
The internet is a last-gasp haven for faded stars. How else would these ppl have a voice that anyone would listen to, if it weren't for clever fan sites and file sharing?
It's pretty obvious The Blade is running an enforcement service for their sister company.
And why not? All policy is for profit these days.
At least the Blade had the integrity to identify their financial relationship to this story. What remains unreported is the editorial connection to law enforcement and corporate management.
Moby's also saying that without Gwen Stefani, his music has limited appeal, thus fewer sales.
He can go commiserate with any number of artists who work in a passe style. Techno is sooo early 90's. When he starts playing to the teenyboppers again, his sales will rise.
Moby's premise that teenyboppers don't know how to rip and trade is just ridiculous. It shows he has lost touch with the youth culture.
Where's the freakin' Star Wars hype? There was supposed to be a continual stream of steamin', stinkin' Star Wars tripe. I cannot understand why those who run/. don't have the fire hydrant open so we can draw straight from the hose.
Naw, I bought some of these and there is no flicker. The strand stays alive, too, if one lamp dies. Or so it sez in the box.
Thing is, I expected to get the new, really bright LEDs that you can't even look at they're so bright. The LEDs in this product seem to be the old style, which are not too bright. 'course, *I'm* not too bright for buying these on a Slashdot notice.
So, these lights blow and by that I mean they suck.
There are a lot of medical searches using distributed computing. I think you can find links at Primenet's home, Entropia. Other math searches exist, too.
Intel even has a distributed computing research effort for some disease or other. It only runs on Windows, though. Dang. http://intel.com/cure/
That distributed computing startup failed this summer. Their only customer wanted a tool to measure response times at commercial web sites.
I've done Primenet for a few years now, and it's to the point where the computing demand has outstripped many of my systems. So I've been seeking a more reasonable cause.
Slashdot Mirror
Pilkington has loaded their channel with this glass, but you cannot find any name-brand window glazer who will touch the stuff.
So, it's going into commercial buildings, but not residential.
Oh. And it scratches easily, so it comes with a fair number of restrictions.
I'm finding that getting this new windows technology installed is next to impossible!
Hey, look, if you're gonna chew the gum and key the cars, and open the DVD, you should expect to be caned, Bruce.
Geez.
Huh? Whazzat? Oh. Canned...
Nevermind. Beats being canned by Libby's!

two months seems like two weeks in internet time. Must be a corollary to the ./ effect...

Klandathu's aim is getting better, but the gov't. won't release the details...
Those Amaltheans are really ugly, so not taking photos of that moon will spare the camera.
I *hate* visiting that place...

So, now the trick is to justify the expense...
Say, here's a thought!
Instead of waiting for his death, give your money to him while he lives!
Send it today.

Huh? What's that you say?
Oh. OK. Number 2 is appropriately named?
"Attack of the Collostemy", indeed.
I'll tell you what discovering other earth-like planets means.
More damn Linux distributions.
Too bad those Italian tether experiments failed on the Space Shuttle, 'cuz NASA's gonna need one hecka-long cable to reach Europa from Earth.
Bah. You've been watching too much Jurassic Park with its movie explanation of chaos theory.
For $10k, you might as well give it away!
C'mon, Google, make the cash interesting!
"No douche for you!"
You know, the *only* thing Bill Gates has targeted is your wallet, and this technology just inches his grubby fingers a little bit closer.
He'd absolutely *love* to have you send him your paychecks so he could craft a perfect world for you.

That guy ought to be arrested as an energy hog. The torch didn't appear too effective, from the looks of things.
Where's the plastic peanuts in these photos? There should be peanuts and styrofoam dust all over the place. I don't see any at all.
