    Yeah well we dont want all these 'Open Source' terrorists with their 'GIMP' (a very dangerous counterfeiting tool) and their 'GCC' (a 'C' compiler with no DRM restrictions) and their MPlayer (a pirate media player also with no DRM). Don't forget their modified drivers for printers, scanners and digital cameras that allows people to copy money!

    Btw did any of these fuckwit DRM mandating freaks think about how they are possibly going to make this work with currency accross the world and how it will work when a country needs to change a note for whatever reason??

    Maybe everyone is scared that the entire western world is being undercut by a bunch of people in some country half-way around the world who will work 10 times harder than any of us, accept a fraction of the wages and probably even do the job better! i dont know about you guys but that thought scares the absolute shit out of me, i reckon its time to join the exploiters at the top of the corporations - you've gotta make the fast buck now and retire or your job is gonna go - its time to kick everyone else off the ladder and scurry up now.

  9. My rant on Computers Replace Musicians In West End Musical · · Score: 1, Informative

    I really think my city is going down hill. 5000!? come on this is London were talking about, were supposed to be rich and we cant even affort to pay 5000 extra a week for some musicians in a major west end musical. I saw this on the news and the musicians are quite rightly pissed off, next thing we know the other half of the orchestra will be outsourced half way around the world on voip. I guess it doesnt surprise me, we pay the most rediculous prices for pretentious crap coffee shops (starbucks would have you believe their specially trained 'barista' with years of experience (jim, student, 2 off of the minimum wage) is serving you a cup of gold, the transport, lets not go there, and the rent in most places is so high that only big chain-store designer clothes shops can make it (i used to have a decent supermarket 2 minutes from my house, now its an 'accessorize' and a costa coffee shop). Its not like i hate this city its great and i wouldnt want to live anywhere else, but the economy here pisses me off so much, i guess the lesson is that in london, you are either exploiting or being exploited.

  10. Crap games dont seem to hurt business on Delays Hurt Video Game Business · · Score: 1

    There are way too many games released that are so totally out of it and nothing-special that im surprised they even make 50 sales in this industry. The sort of games out currently are just yet-another-fps usually with some 'exciting' alien theme or 'non-linear' story lines (my ass). Very few games push the boundries or do anything new atall. They are just the standard fps setup with a health bar (how original) and some skined on theme and plot. There are so many things that can be done with the way games work - just changing basics such as how damage and control work could revolutionise whole types of game.

  11. We had this 16 years ago on Canadian Privacy Act · · Score: 4, Interesting

    In the uk we have the Data Protection Act (of 1984 and redone in '98 AFAIK) which lays down rules about how your data is handled. Companies etc that collect data on you must be registered and must keep your data secure from others. Also you have the right to view all the data that anyone holds on you and ensure its accurate (except in a few situations such as police investigation), you can even see emails/memos about you and cctv tapes (again AFIAK). Even my old school is registered. There are afew other things which i forget but you can read about here

    Penguins spend their lives in the freezing cold fending off polar bears and rouge iceburgs and catching fish, they are totally used to it and even if a particular nasty polar bear comes around they can usually deal with it. If you release a home-trained hampster into that environment its just gonna die.

  18. Its no biggy on Surveillance Cameras in Britain Not Effective? · · Score: 1

    People seem to think that the cameras are everywhere which isnt true. Generally there are no cameras in residential areas (well not mine, atleast) they are in the busy parts such as Oxford Circus where there are lots of shops (and a man with a megaphone who keeps saying "are you a sinner, or a winner?" he scares me) and Liecester sq where there are lots of drunk girls who think they look hot. AFAIK the data protection act covers video, so technically no-one should be showing me scratching my crotch on some tv compilation show. Personally id rather have more real police on the streets especially in more residential areas where the muggings tend to happen but hey, its not like Blair would listen to us! i mean who do we think we are? voters??

  24. KISS on Microsoft, Yahoo Investigate Spam Solution · · Score: 2, Interesting

    All this is going to do is make email totally proprietry and over complex. It will mean banding about digital cirtificates and various payment methods - (probably controlled by microsoft) just to send a simple email the length of this post. But something most people will probably miss is that if two people know eachother then they will just have their email addresses on a "safe" list in their email client and theres no reason they would need to use the payment system.

    If your going to make email more complicated i dont see any reason to use a payment based system over a challenge-based system - eg: you send an email to someone for the first time, their server or client sends back an email with a human test (eg type a number from a graphic, answer a simple random question such as "if mary had a little lamb what animal did mary have?" or ask them the name and gender of the person they are emailing) the advantage being that its not a central system, its not complicated, it only needs to be done once, and it can be set/edited/tweeked by the user.
