Yeah, that would be one of Shaw's special deals. My own deal isn't quite so hot - I think I pay $39.95 CDN a month. But couple that with digital cable and the movie and music channels, and it's $101.41 CDN/mo including 14.5% sales taxes.
I don't give a crap (yet:). In Canada, cable modem access is wide-spread, even people like me (in the middle of nowhere) have it. DSL is limited to city centres (I'm, like, at least 10KM away from the nearest access point). The Canadian push to get the entire country onto the Internet most likely means that regulations such as this one will be few and far between.
That's just not cool, man. Not cool. Besides, an early-gen Libretto can run BeOS. Best mp3 platform EVAR! And it boots faster that other OSes, and recovers from sudden power loss too... a libretto with BeOS could take the abuse a car could hand out, AND it could hold tons of tunes too. No need for messy CDs.
I guess the only thing needed would be... some form of wireless connection. Then I could just upload MP3s from my desktop to my car.:)
I wanted something I could put in the glove compartment of my car and wire directly into the stereo... something like a Toshiba Libretto. Ah well. Guess I can just mount it elsewhere in the vehicle.

Apparently, RMS is a multi-slashdot-mod. Go figure. And here I thought the comment was genuinely funny; after all, I don't think the letters "GNU" escaped from Moglen's keyboard...

Wow, I thought this day would never come. I thought all them rednecks would just be sittin' there talking about their "inner net" (inner netting on shorts), for decades...:)
Silly boy, EVERYONE knows that the true bottleneck of computer game performance is the LED lights. If you can overclock those, you can get the best performance out of ANY game!
Now, pardon me as I remove my tongue from my cheek.:)

Slashdot Mirror
Hahah ... that one didn't occur to me until just now :) very funny :)
I have many holes ... to which are you referring?
I think slashdot denies responsibility for this by saying that contributors are responsible for their own spelling.

I mean, I think it's installed (pretty sure NetCraft's uptime says so), but I haven't configured or tested it yet. Soooo exploitable. Ah well. :)

From Moncton? I think I know your cousin.
