We don't have no the FBI... We have the RCMP, and its unfortunate, but they waste time tracking who borrows certain books when they SHOULD BE investigating our Prime Minister and the millions of tax dollars that got funnelled to friendly Liberal supporters.
The legacy of our PM is broken promises... Case and point... GST and Free Trade...
"Seems like technology in general is trending towards more regulation as the industry is seen as staid as railroads, coal, or shipping."
If anything its the opposite. Look at how they dealt with Microsoft. Personally I would welcome a little more regulation. It seems that we in the technology sector seem to like the Wild Wild West and the Internet Gold Rush.
Sure, shit laws like the DMCA get passed, but that's not regulating the technology industry as much as it is the Consumers of the technology. The DMCA actually give more power / less regulation to technologies companies at the expense of the consumers.
Are they going to translate the works/documents, or put them up in the native raw text.
I would love to sift thru the piles of text, but I don't speak Latin, especially not Latin of 2000 years ago.
This is going to be an incredible tool for the educated, but nearly useless for the common folks. Afterall think about all the various translations of the Bible, the differing opinions on words, etc.
The group is handed cloaks and food by the elves as well as parting advice. Galadriel gives gifts to each of the members. Gimli has a very unlikely request. Wait till you hear what he receives.
I wonder... Could it be a strand of hair? He forgets, most people have read the book and are eagerly waiting for those cut parts to be re-introduced into the film.
The DMCA was most useful for the ENTERTAINMENT industry. That special interest group is mostly a Democratic lobby.
It was Clinton... If anything, Bush might not have let it go since the Republicans get much more money from "real" industries that got screwed by this law.
Ya... but it went from 1 to 30 pages once the RIAA got involved. I am happy di.fm is supporting and going to continue online, but I want to know what else in the 29 other pages got inserted and just hasn't been found yet.
Expect in the future for the definition of SMALL to become larger and larger until that saying of "first they came for the stations with only 5 users, but since I had 5,000, I wasn't worried.... Eventually they came for the 5,000... Who will defend me." I don't like definitions and groupings to be stated since those WILL BE CHANGED and the BOUNDARIES broadened to maximize the RIAA revenue in the future.
Basically they are grabbing what they can now, and knowing that in the future they will go for more, probably before anyone can organize in time.
Remember, this is the RIAA, unlike the MPAA that does enable LoTR and ST and SW, I have little to be thankful of the RIAA for.
But usually the electoral college and the people vote the same way.
You also have proportional representation, which isn't such a bad thing.
In Canada, the popular vote and the actual results are seldom true. We have issues of vote spliting on the Right, and so we get stuck with PM we have now.
Where democracy and freedom is a short 4 hour drive to the South! Americans complain about greed and buy-offs. But at least you elect your Senate, your President can't fire the Ethics Police, or if by fluke, by a simple majority in the House of Commons run the country like a dictatorship!

Enough said!
Now people can shut the hell up with the "but does it support ORG" posts... Nearly annoying as bewolfs!
its to the pub for some good quality Canadian beer.
Not that Yankee bottled goat piss they call beer south of the border.

Can you make one with Jesse Jackson also?
Hey Jesse, when are you going to be running to the snipers defensive...
but can we read it?

Who do we trust to translate these documents?
Itchy bum... Smelly finger.
I think the best is somewhere between the US and the UK attitudes, UK goes not far enough, US, to far.
That person would be called a Canadian!
Checking in code before its completely debugged not knowing that that night's build would be going out as client update.
Very embarrassing when you leave a ShowMessage('In Here 239') line of code... Opps.
Moral of the story... Beware of checking in incompleted work into a Code Vault.
Why didn't you wear ear-plugs? Buy a noise cancelling device... or how about... Adapt!
I ain't trying to mean... Sure computers are loud, but there are ways to work around this...
Screw 'For Good Justice'
... Someone set us up the bomb!
I want 'For Good Revenge'
Voices in your head want out... Make a hole for them.

this ain't flame bait...
Steve Jobs is a flamer.. He doesn't get his way so he pouts and throws a temper-tantrom... Plz..
assholes...
talk about a little baby... Hey Steve... Baby want his bottle?
and that's why in the long run we are all screwed in the continent. When we finally run out of oil, we are screwed!
I also don't think airline tickets are coming down in price.
I also liked Alan Cooper. I found his use of personas essential for when I am consulting with a client about their website.
Understanding the user/customer is an essential skill, one that needs to be developed. That's an excercise that needs to be taught in CS more.

So RIAA, get bent!

Not Another Prime Minister from Quebec in Canada!
So its dangerous... Put the sniper into context. 10 people died in a single highway pile-up in 10 minutes!
Sure the sniper is bad... But people die all the time. How many African children died while I wrote this message?
Not Another Prime Minister from Quebec in Canada!
Should it? I wouldn't wish Quebec-French-wannabies on anyone!
Not Another Prime Minister from Quebec in Canada!
Not Yet! It takes some time for American culture to move its way North!

How about having this law only apply to individuals who violate the law in the United States.
How about in general the U.S. limit their laws to people who live in the States.
