This is an interesting article, but it has nothing to do with Flickr, except for the fact that instead of saving the images on a local device, this guy uploaded them to Flickr. Yaaaawn, -1: misleading.
I wish the article would cover Windows authentication issues (NTLM, Kerberos)... which is the real nail in the coffin for the Mozilla browsers when it comes to deploying them on a corporate network. Anything good to read out there?
Next, we'll see television sets being sent a signal that ignores the remote control's "channel" buttons during commercials. You just won't be able to switch away during commercials... you'll be forced to watch them (or power off your TV). ... Orwell would be proud.
he would, indeed You are correct about DVDs. it is the most infuriating thing.
Instead of using lawsuits, they should just screen-scrape Google, scrub out the ads and the Google logo and offer the result as a free service. After that, we can see how Google likes it.
Right on! My DVD player has 3 buttons, its remote tons. My Squeeze box has *no* buttons and a remote, but my favorite remote for it is my laptop, if it's plugged in. I think you're onto something here.
You could be an Algerian student and be allowed to stay with just a "permis de sejour", not a french ID card. You could be a US citizen with a valid US driver's license and be allowed to drive. You could be a EU citizen and be allowed to work, without a french ID card.
In France, a "carte d'identité" only establishes one thing: that you are a french citizen. It doesn't establish your right to vote, your right to drive, your right to work, or your right to enter the national/european borders. In short, I'm not sure why it's useful at all. I don't see why it's particularly evil either.
These are the same people that predicted that Enron and Worldcom were the companies of the future, that Lucent was going to grow forever, that QQQ was the ticket to retiring at 30. Who gives a shit about their opinion? Listen to successful investors: W. Buffett, Peter Lynch, they'll tell you that the best thing to do about analysts is to ignore their predictions. So what does this guy know about Netflix? Has he actually even tried their service?
...the map gets covered with little brand icons showing the closest PizzaHut and Starbucks when I *didn't* search for 'pizza' or 'coffee'? Not very long I'm sure.
MS SQL Server is one of the best things to come out of Microsoft's campus

...their mouse only has one button.
Netflix's UI had that for ages. Yawwwwnnn.
Why not just use different Reject codes: rejected, rejected-dupe, etc. instead of encouraging the practise?

If C==RIAA, as soon as a download starts, they can turn around and sue B (and probably A).
