"Politically Incorrect" is supposed to imply things that are not liberal-friendly. Now we're calling Intelligent Design, Stem Cells and Marijuana "Politically Incorrect"? What kind of thinking is that? The liberals invented political correctness (which annoys the hell out of me). Don't go pinning it on the lunatic conservatives. Anything they do that is currently being labelled "politically incorrect" should just be called what it is: STUPID AND EVIL. The right wing loves straight talk so much, here's some straight talk for you:
1. Intelligent design is STUPID AND EVIL. Since it can be disproven by any means, it's invalid. Period. 2. Anti-Stem Cell research sentiment is STUPID AND EVIL. Anyone who doesn't get this is a moron. 3. Anti-drug legalization is STUPID AND EVIL. Just like prohibition, all it does is create an underground business that results in MORE violence and crime than legalizing it would.
...impracticality is the current administration's way of life. Witness Iraq, the "War on Terra", even the most recent debacle of the Veep's shooting victim apologizing to HIM. Google better play dirty on this one since the current admin and all the neocons play that way.
...is that the poster didn't just talk about privacy, but also about media control. While encryption might handle the privacy angle it does jack squat for getting an unpopular message out to everyone over channels controlled by people who think the message is detrimental to them. Especially if your web host or ISP is told that your message is "illegal" in the next few years. I live in America where it's getting harder and harder to get the truth out to people via mainstream channels. And now we've got politicians trying to shut down bloggers because the bloggers disagree with their views. Political dissent with the right wing in the U.S. is slated to be a crime before the next election. THAT'S the more important issue here. The only way to fight that battle is, sadly, with lots of money which the sane people in the U.S. don't currently have a lot of. To the remaining REAL Americans, media control is a HUGE issue. The wrong people are controlling the media today and the Internet is largeely becoming just another form of media for them to rule over.
That's what I thought too. You have a lot more to lose when you know more than if you don't. Which leads me to wonder about something. I wonder what percentage of Slashdot is college educated in Comp. Si./devel vs. those who have completely unrelateed degrees vs. those who have no degrees and learned it all on their own (I.T. that is). The study would have to exclude people who read Slashdot but who aren't employed in I.T./Programming since they don't really formally count as typical Slashdot readers. Just wondering... I'm a Telecommunications major myself which is more grand sounding than it actually is. The focus was on audio production for radio/music production. No technology training whatsoever. No programming. I just lucked into I.T./devel because I have a little knack for it and my background in terms of hobbies was electronics, so I know the machines more intimately than most.
The ultimate OS for building a Media Center is Linux. But that's not what this is about. Regardless of what OS you choose to go with, the BEST approach to setting up a media PC is the "invisibility" mod. How is that accomplished? Careful planning. My PC is in the basement on some custom shelving directly beneath where the 37" LCD monitor is. EVERYTHING is controlled from the Gnome GUI with custom launchers for everything. This is better (for my needs) than MythTV or Freevo (not to take anything away from those excellent projects) because it's not an "easy to use GUI", it's a standard desktop that my family already knows how to use. They can do everything from the desktop. Control the volume, change channels, look at ANY media whether stored locally, via NFS or online. But the best thing is that it isn't visible at all and the only connections coming up to the living room are DVI and USB. That's it. My case mod is a house built circa 1914.;)
So you're saying it's OK for me to fuck you over in my climb to that top Pete??? Hey thanks for the carte blanche!!! I think I'm gonna LOVE this capitalism thing after all!!!;P
My point exactly. Everyone who uses a REAL computer knows that you have to open a shell and type @SYS$SYSTEM:SHUTDOWN and answer a few questions.;P (For all you VMSers out there...)
He actually SAID that? WTF?!! This is yet more proof that something is seriously wrong with business people and that there is far more evil being done in the name of competition than good. All of this, "we must completely decimate and cannibalize our competitors" attitude is NOT positive. Didn't these people learn to pay fair when they were kids? What the fuck is wrong with the business world? God I HATE those people!!!
Grrreat... A Unix virus written by someone who probably knows more about Unix than most of the Slashdot crowd has forgotten, and it's targetted at the average non-technical Mac user who thinks that you are supposed to turn a computer off by pressing the power button.;P (It's a joke folks. Lighten up.)
Would it be apropos to say, "Up your nose with a rubber hose!" to China now? (Come on you 30-something Slashdotters, surely you remember Welcome Back Kotter? It was a formative experience like JJ Walker's "Dynomite!")
Uhhh... you take me SERIOUSLY and I'm the idiot? Get a sense of humor, a brain and some sarcasm detection algorithms. Remember, it's only Slashdot. Nothing anyone here says should be interpretted as honest opinion. Glad I could help. Mods, work 'im over...;P
...First Person Shooters, may I be the first to point out that these sorts of "games" are completely pointless and provide no entertainment whatsoever. If you can't frag anyone, it's not a real game.

I've found another way to spend 75% of my life doing nothing even though I think I'm doing something! Oh wait... that would be all gamers, wouldn't it?
...Google's lost their way. Companies like Google don't need to buy technology because they employ the best and brightest. This is not a good sign. Any company out there that buys up technologies instead of doing their own R&D is less a company of technologists and more a company of business people. In the tech sector, that's a recipe for disaster. Business people RARELY understand technology or can recognize a good one if it bites them. Take my NanoDenture (Patent Pending) technology. When I was working at one of the dot.bombs in the high flying 90s (free-roof-tile.com) I stormed the bored room one day to demonstrate my NanoDentures to the higher ups. They were a bunch of useless jackasses who thought they could make millions giving people free roof tile that was just under the amount needed to do their roof and then charge them a premium for the remainder. But seeing as I liked them as people and all... I was going to give them one last ditch to save themselves. My NanoDenture system was a system of nanobots that live in the GI tract (O.K. mutated E. Coli) and they pop up every half an hour or so to clean your dentures which are made of cheese. It was perfect. The only drawback was that your dentures were orange because they were made of cheddar. But I figured if they invested in R&D that we could like that problem by using ice instead of cheese or something like that. Unfortunately, the jackasses didn't see what they had under their noses and they fired me on the spot because I'd broken into yet another coke snorting party as most dot-bomber CEOs and management were wont to do. My dreams were destroyed that day. Ever since, I've been shopping around for the V.C. to adopt my technology and put more R&D into it. Let's hope the same thing doesn't happen to the janitor at Google...
At least he's a scientist with proper equipment and connections to skilled people who could make this a reality. Unlike the trepanning freaks who use Black and Decker drills and coat hangers in their living rooms. Those people are also looking to expand their consciousness using this age old technique, but if you ask me, they're insane. Hell, after reading half the treppaning stories online, I think I'd prefer surgery by Dr. Frankenstein over some of the wild eyed extreme types doing this stuff at home. Just watch for copycats. Possibly some of them here on Slashdot. They'll hear about this guy doing it and think, "Oh. He did it? I can do it just as well at home witha Makita!". Freaks.
Even assuming that this is true. Does it matter? Google isn't there for profit. It's there for providing a useful set of services. If they happen to make money, then that's fine. If they don't it's no skin off their noses either because money making isn't their sole purpose. If it was, do you think they'd be giving so much stuff out for free? Yea Google!!!!
Love is an illusion created by a mix of chemicals in the brain. It has nothing to do with any deep spiritual connection. It's merely your animal side reacting to the stimuli of oxytocin (not to be confused with Rush Limbaugh's drug of choice: oxycontin). If you expunge the animal side of your nature, you can see the world clearly and without being influenced by such ridiculous concepts as love and passion. Stop lying to yourself. There is no such thing as love. Or is there? Check my sig link to find out for sure...
I've only know one person who was a director at a previous job who actually "got" technology. If he'd had less desire for power, he probably could have been a tech. But this kind of person is VERY rare.
It's funny, but for a guy who once professed to be "against" the big suits at IBM, he's certainly had no trouble joining them in his quest for DRM. Personally, if I were Jobs, here's what I'd do:
1. Only ensure that Mac OS X will run WELL on Apple hardware 2. Let the OS run on standard x86 PCs with the caveat that Apple does not support this and users who do this will get no support from Apple 3. Open Source the OS so that those who want to get the OS to run well on x86 boxes that are not conTrolled by Apple can do so and extend it as well 4. Re-absorb the open source developed extensions to work on the APple controlled x86
EVERYONE wins. The people who buy Apple branded x86 machines win because they get more and innovative functionality from the open source crowd. The open sourcers win because they can get OS X to run on any x86 box they wish or possibly even back port it to PPC boxes from other vendors (can anyone say "Mac OS X on The Cell"?;P ). Apple wins because this will not cut into their Mac sales since most people who really want a Mac are going to buy one. Anyone who is wishy washy about buying one is likely NOT going to buy one so there are no lost sales. And finally, Apple won't be wasting money on the R&D for DRM schemes that are going to fail no matter what they do. That money is better spent on actual OS and hardware development within Apple.
Unfortunately, it seems that every captain of industry that tastes the DRM Koolaide, gets enchanted and is lost to the good side forever. The new Jobs does not support "the rest of us" anymore. He supports "the few elite" who make lots of money controlling "the rest of us". That person in the 1984 clip back in the 80s is today: Linus Torvalds.
...and next you'll be telling me that tabletop fusion has been discovered, there are parasitic viruses that alter the host's behavior, and that someone invented the plasma drive at NASA. You're ready to swallow all that pseudoscience and yet you all deny me when I try to inform you about the return of the Niburu and Planet X by the great Zecharia Sitchin!!! It's unbelievable just how gullible the Slashdot crowd is and how blind they are to honest truth.
The problem with "leaders" is in how much they actually understand what's going on. Typically the people with strong leadership skills are totally clueless when it comes to understanding what is technically realistic. You've got people out there who are strong leaders but actually believe that if they wanted to have flying minibots all over the place that use anti-grav drives for security services, that it's possible. Hate to break it to them, but it's NOT possible. That's the typical leader with strong skills. What's needed are people with strong technical skills who can lead a group of other coders. That is an impossible requirement because the people who excel at technical abilities are typically horrible leaders. Usually because they don't understand how to interact properly with others, or they can't let people work in their own way and they try to force their staff to be just like them. It's a rare person who understands technology enough to design realistic products AND can manage other people.
As much as the trendoids out there may feel that they are the "digerati" since they use all the latest buzzy technologies, it all comes down to one thing: two tin cans and a string. When it comes to communication, people only fall into one of two camps especially when they are young:
1. You and your best friend rigged up some kind of comm system between your houses because you were actual real live techno geeks.
or...
2. You were a catty, snippy teen who passed around "he said/she said" notes in school all day and that's about the extent of what communication means to you.
Now obviously there's a right way and a wrong way to look at communication. The right way is to ogle the technology itself and try to learn how it works so you can do more interesting things with it. The wrong way is to use it to pass around "he said/she said" information (ie. what most morons consider communication to be). Personally, I think IM is overrated because there are very few IM systems that you can actually force into serving you properly. My preference is Jabber because I can actually run my own IM server for private use among friends and family. I can also do very interesting things with it, like trigger events remotely by sending commands to a "bot" account. I've got one at home on my Jabber server that I call "Bash Boy". All I have to do is send IM messages to it like:
cd / ls mv file1/home/mystuff
and it obeys. I challenge you to do that with the proprietary IM that other companies offer. If your IM can't do that, then you're not really using IM to it's fullest capabilities. And that's a VERY basic example. Now adding this IM feature to cell phones is ridiculous. Think about all the fat, lazy white trash you see walking around with a cell phone grafted to their ears in the grocery store. You know why they won't use IM? Because they can barely read let alone spell. Can you imagine what sort of horrors they will be "typing" via their IM???

Well... my home brew PVR's pause file can grwo pretty large prety fast. If I pause TV for a week, I could easily have a 100+ gig file. It's not unheard of.
