They forgot to mention in the Felton section about how he was turning in that paper, because he took part in a contest to break those methoods. A contest RIAA itself started and promoted.
That's some damn important information to leave out.
Personally, I wouldn't give two shits if those features were non-existant.
Frontpage-generated pages still distort often.
I know you didn't state it, but I hope you're not pinning this on Mozilla. It is a well known fact that Front Page generates odd html, often breaking standards.
At leasts it beats opera on stability and functionality, plus it's (banner)free.
The interface is inconsistent, and it doesn't make it obvious what is going on at any one time. There's nothing like the big 'Send/Recv' button in OE, and when you collect mail, you have no idea what's going on.
Why do we need a big button? Clearly, mozilla is targeted at intelligent users. As far as collecting mail, it's pretty clear what's going on in the lower left. And if there's an error, it pops up and says so.
I think the DMCA is a dangerous law too, but I don't have the balls to publicly (and illegally) flout it. And since you don't either, you should probably keep the snide comments to yourself.
One of many reasons this country is going (actually , is already there) into the shitter.
I find that it gets really old when people act like linux is competing with windows. Linux just 'is'. It doesn't have a big ass corporation behind it, and I'm GLAD it's that way.
Quit treating it like a commercial product, which has to make ingrounds on... on whatever the hell people think.

Except for that, this is a great read.
Let's turn the tables on them. Lets charge them to access anything outside of India.
Assholes.
Which is why they use IE.
Suckers.
MS has em' there hehe.
Support for flash / shockwave is decent.

And I the second.
Indeed.
Instead of consumer freedom, this is consumer slavery.
...This would just be another reason. I'm not going to go out and buy a set or a converter.
Sigh.
Bah.
Fuck off HP, and I thought you weren't a Disney-like asshole company.
But I'm wrong. I won't be buying anything from you guys, that's for damn sure.
So, instead, we'll just let them fuck us up the ass with rediculous proposed laws and passed laws.
I don't think so.
And yes, I'm saying I support the DoS attack.
Fuck RIAA.
See, I have to wonder about this shit. I have information pertaining to the involvement of ivillage with the FBI.
Don't make me post it, it will fuck your world up.
That's pretty sad, they want the user to trust what it says about the systems security, but they think "Linux" is only Redhat and Mandrake.
Nice going.
Makes me think of the cockroach in The 5th Element that had a camera and mic on it.
The dude had headphones on and was listening to the conversation intently, and then one of the targets sees it, grabs a shoe and WHAMMO!!
Of course, the listener gets a nice surprise to the ears.
Coming? I'm using it right now, it's an experimental option in 2.4.18 (maybe earlier too).
Flawless.
I really like that idea, mind if I go ahead and do it with a friend?

Hollywood is winning, folks. You are losing. And you'd better start caring.
Couldn't have said it better myself.
I do find it quite surprising a huge company such as HP didn't stand up against this. That's sad and disturbing. Come on HP!
Topic says it all. I wasn't able to get one single link to respond over the past few hours.
No.
Shoot your rep.
I wonder at what point the revolt will happen.
After such laws pass (and beleive me, they WILL pass).
After they begin to be enforced.
Then people will revolt, and I will lead them.
Being that the USA is a melting pot, we have been taught to respect the belief's and values of other cultures.
That is also why we get walked on, such as here, too much.
In this case, why can't THEY respect OUR laws as well? What should have been done was the ISP contacted, not the account used without permission.
This is horseshit. Time for some respect BOTH ways.
Welcome to the new world folks, it goes downhill from here.
Fucking globalist pricks.
.. Because I submitted this story way earlier and this one gets accepted?
Assclowns.

Oh wait, actually I see why now! It cut off my subject at "Royaltes on..." where I had JPEG. It showed up in the damn subject text box!
Assclowns! HEH.

Get over it.
I can on slashdot. The intellegence/clue level of slashdot users has always been high, but I do beleive it's been dropping consistantly.
/me runs!
I blame it on mandrake users.
