They're not so much "Standing up to the RIAA", they're merely asking for due process in the form of a proper subpoena. The RIAA has enjoyed a remarkable level of convenience up until this point with regards to their university settlements, it will be interesting to see if they actually bother to take the time to get the required paperwork together. All of their other cases that have shown up in the media have seemed pretty slapdash, at best.
If you have ever been to India you can see that this is infact a great idea.
Yeah, but I really would have thought the Dutch would have come up with this idea first. The Dutch have been powering their Ovens with compressed gas for years.
Internet2 and National LambdaRail have agreed to merge. And they're moving quickly, after tussling over the details of such an agreement for more than a year.
Great news. So what sort of tubes will they be going forward with in this joint venture?
The RIAA has now brought suit against a stroke victim in Michigan in Warner v. Paladuk.
And by "stroke victim", they don't mean someone with a medical condition. That's just what they call someone who gets caught downloading a Billy Squier album.
In an apparent attempt to boost its disappointing Web search market share, Microsoft will give 'service or training credits' to companies that will share employees' Live Search usage data.
Screw training credits. There was an email going around that said Bill Gates had some intertron email tracking system and he was giving out cash money, and all you had to do was forward the email to all of your friends. Seriously.
(hey, I didn't make the reference; I would have compared it to the James Bond "Golden Eye" movie)
The GoldenEye weapon caused an EMP blast, which, in the movie, knocked out any electronic gear in the radius. It didn't directly cause actual physical destruction of the landscape (The whole plan was to use the EMP as cover to steal cash money from the british financial system, not nuke the place from orbit)
jcasman writes to mention an article at Astronomy.com discussing the now on-the-move Mars rovers, which have been effectively in hibernation over the long Martian winter.
I knew it. This is just more evidence of the vast bear conspiracy that's mauling our government from the inside out.
Sony's Grouper, a video sharing site, has sent Searchles, a social search engine a cease and desist letter... It's interesting to note that Grouper itself is being sued for copyright infringement."
Knowing Sony, Grouper's probably being sued by Columbia.
The news comes just a few weeks after a WWF report showed that scientists had identified at least 52 new species of animals and plants over the past year on Borneo.
With SELinux project making great strides and now being bundled with many major Linux distributions, it is possible to effectively lock down a Linux system through judicious use of SELinux policies.
You can say that, sure, but I think for most people, SE'ing is believing.

According to an article on Gizmag, Tata, India's largest automotive manufacturer, has developed a car that runs on compressed air.
Well, if you eat a lot of Tandoori, this is a great use for that compressed air.
A New.com article highlights a plan that may please word-weary students: more games, fewer books in some educational settings.
Look, I learned everything I need to know about the Great Western Expansion by playing Oregon trail. Such as, it is very easy to die of dysentery.

It's o.k., I have a rock.
That rock sucks. It only keeps tigers away.

Diodes can be made to 'swim' through salt water by hitting them with an alternating electric field.
And yet for some reason this same method doesn't work so well on people.

The last time NASA judged that the Shuttle was ready to fly after freak weather, astronauts lost their lives.
Yeah, but that was back in the day when space travel was really booming.
A false set of books presented as evidence would be purjury.
Is purjury like when your guilt is decided by a swarm of cats?

Your soul? (Or are we talking about companies that aren't EA?)
The RIAA has been ordered to turn over its attorneys' billing records
So my first question is, do they get a volume discount?
and the use of more advanced technologies such as 'keyword filtering', which is used to track down material by identifying sensitive words.
As the FCC has found out, people will just make up new words, that are worse than the old words. Like "Blumpkin".
I haven't even upgraded to Internet2 and Web 2.0 and they're already doing work on Internet3.
They're not just working on Internet3. They're working on Internet360, which is 120 times better than plain old Internet3.
Australian researchers have combined art and science to make dresses from fermented fabric, using bacteria to 'grow' slimy dresses
Bah. EECS students have been using the "floor pile" method to grow similar clothing for years.
The news comes just a few weeks after a WWF report showed that scientists had identified at least 52 new species of animals and plants over the past year on Borneo.
Ah ha! so that's what the rock is cooking!
On Monday, an environmental advocacy group [Appalachian Voices] joined with Google to deliver a special interactive layer for Google Earth.
What a letdown. By "special interactive layer", I was expecting shared control of an orbiting laser cannon.

Future spacecraft may surf the magnetic fields of Earth and other planets, taking previously unfeasible routes around the solar system
I'm not sure this "surfing the galaxy" technology is a good idea. It'll just be used to lead Galactus here to consume our planet.
