  1. Publishing private details on Congress (Still) Looking at whois · · Score: 1

    I can understand why they need all your information, but since it's inception I cannot undertand why it needs to make them publicly available.

    What should happen it that this information be held in a repository somewhere that must be asked for by the relevant authoritive bodies such as the Government (concensus, stats, etc) and the Court of Law. Personally I see this no different to publishing my credit card number - becuase on the internet I demand some sort of anonyomity, and I don't wish my address, email and daytime telephone number to be broadcast to any CowboyNeal whose trying to sell his porn banners.

  2. Maybe Sun should get a taste of it's own medicine? on Sun to Charge for Star Office 6.0 · · Score: 1

    Humm... maybe we should charge Sun for using GNOME - that'd teach 'em!

  3. Finally - BladeRunner on DVD on (Another) Cut of Blade Runner · · Score: 1

    Cool - finally a decent version that I can use on my DVD player. I didn't think much of the Director's Cut, so I never bourght it on DVD. They did a great misjustice with the picture quality and sound on the DC DVD - and I hope this is a chance to rectify that mistake, because BladeRunner is a landmark film, oozing in plot and atmosphere - and frankly, deserved much more!
