Well here in holland aparently you have to pay for copying parts of copyrighed material if it's not for private use. And they actually want to enforce the business to pay up.
www.reprorecht.nl unfortunatly the website is in dutch...
I guess why this isn't a privacy issue is that no goverment body/company is collecting data using EDR (I can just see the spam comming now).
The data collected is from a reasonable period i.e. 5 secs. And the data is linked to a person but to a car. Furthermore the data was only used in court, so after a judge ruled it could be used in court. Also the data from the EDR was't used solely to convict the guy.
But I agree with the previous comment that you should be free to remove it and that there should be a law that makes this official.
What changed my mind was that if there was an eye-witness there was no problem. So what exactly is the difference, I know the machine is not going to lie or give a twisted view?
If I was just to use a email or new icon I would be home free, but there are still a lot of icons that don't exist. I hope you agree that's still possible.
I notice that no sites are getting shut down who use GUI from an os. Or sites that have wallpapers from models or artwork. Both are common on the web.
In the same spirit you cannot have a fan site with pictures? I know fan sites have been sued in the past, on the other hand many other fan sites still exist.
Since so many sites seem to get away with it, I thought that perhaps there was a special excemption.
A better question would be what if the US doesn't maintain it's satellites. Wired had an article explaining that some satellites are offline because of repairs/malfunctions. US military said that there was nothing to be scared of but what if GPS failed, can you imagine how many business would go bankrupt if GPS went dead. From fishing to DHL to farming!
I always found it suspicious that everytime RAM prices came down, the factory was on fire, blown away by tornado, or was hit by an earthquake. It was like they really had a bad case of Sim City.
The way I look at affero is that it is another way that 1 systeem keeps track of your identity. The same as microsoft is doing with hotmail/msn. But affero doesn't use it to proof who you are for transactions. Instead it proofs your credibility as someone who adds to a community. With an added posibility to get donations because you are such a swell guy. It would be nice if we could combine this stuff.
I mean it's easy if you don't have to log on everywhere and it's great to be or feel appreciated for your effort in forums/irc/etc..
it amazes me that they used linux as I assume that there must be easier tools under windows that do the same?
That is what I would like to know, i mean it must be easier to find the tool under windows thebn setup a linux machine purely for the dd tool which must also be available under bsd?
Well you aren't going to find any in the coffeeshops But here are pictures of it http://mercurio.iet.unipi.it/pix/nl/metro/Amst erda m/pix.html And here is the subway map http://www.metropla.net/eu/ams/amsterdm.htm If you haven't seen it, it doesn't mean it isn't there. Although I believe there is a philisofical discussion about it...
The article basicly says that it wants user intervention when it connects to a new/unknwon computer it hasn't connected to before. So the virus could still spread to it's known list?? What if you run kazaa? The program would block outgoing connections.. I know which one is going out of the window first..
Doesn't current human interaction show that it only stimulates viral spreading , by opening emails and running stuff because it says "I love you" not to mention the spreading of emails "warning new virus delete file foo.exe?"
I see many great and innovative ways for switching a circuit. But the subject of waking her husband up in a cheap way I haven't seen.
If I absolutely needed to be sure that he would wake I would wire his bed/toe to some electrical wire that when activated gives short bursts of 110/220v, that should wake him up!
It's one of the few places of the world where most if not any of the old media (punch cards or wirings) can be converted to new media (floppy/cdrom).
It's quite impressive if you get a change to actually see it. I also liked the story where computers would actually blow up if not being used for a long time, this due to old moving parts that would dry out or expand during the years. Luckily they have a tool shop where they can rebuild certain parts.

When will I profit from this?
Or is this more a thing for my grand children?

Where did you get the Idea that SAP DB is enterprise tested? SAP is installed 99% of the time on oracle.
Now he only has to find out where Europe is.
The FAQ says you can. You can find out more if you read it.
EMP weapons have, in general, been under discussion and research for a very long time.
What are reasons not to use them yet?
Once it gets available to the public.
I mean this is useful yesterday and won't be available in years. Not even taking into account everyone bitching about standards.
Doesn't the whois/DNS database already do this?

You better watch out Bill or else you will get sued using your monopoly position! Hah you'll never win when there is justice!

You should buy wired then, it takes some skill to find the articles!

It was experience but when was the last time you used a 14k4 modem to dial-up to a BBS...
It's just not unlikely that 1 chipset vender can squize out extra performance if it's tuning everything to it's own equipment.
I believe I saw it already available at a local software store in the Netherlands yesterday...
Reminds me of the HST modems of USR you would get 1700+ kbs instead of 1500-1600 kbs...
You could only do this with 2 usr hst modems....
