I thought everyone realised that the conservative suppressive elements of a cuture are less to do with the religion itself but with the conservative suppressive people at the top.
You do the Daily Mail a great kindness. I'd never rely on it as a source for anything except wasted economic output. If I take a black marker and cover all the emotive language and duplicitous language and content, I'm left solely with Tricia, 19, Lancs.
The Verizon certificates are included in Mozilla under GTE Cybertrust. In Debian, dpkg-reconfigure ca-certificates, select ask, and select the certificates you don't trust.
I think this is terrible. Trust in forms of identification is taken away every day; where will it end? I mean it's not like we have a well established and studied form of authentication for data!
I don't really want companies to provide Linux drivers; I'm much more interested in them providing Free documentation of their chipsets interface to the host system. Then we can write drivers for whatever system we want to use. We really just want the chance to work ourselves out of poor hardware support. Of course, the problem is that sometimes the frequency and power interlocks on the chipset are implemented in software, so, due to slight moronicness of the FCC, they can't realise the full spec, but have to write a binary HAL.
Also, the Atheros chipsets are extremely nice in that you can have TriBand adapters (ie. a, b and g on the same card). Plus, Atheros have just released a new driver version that allows you to create multiple cirtual access points on the same card, and at least one station mode connection (I'm not sure); all at the same time. I would say this is distinctly more featureful than their Windows drivers.
He's just going to get arrested isn't he? He's clearly comitted crimes under the DMCA; more so than Dmitry Skylarov, and look what happened to him. I think this is a really bad idea.
I'm not sure they get it. They are taking rights away/extending the privileges of the copyright holder; All these circumstances where this causes trouble are/symptoms/ of the problem, not the problem itself. DRM is not a valid extension of the copyright holders' privilege to restrict public display and distribution; that is the issue.
I'm in the UK and we sync from the Rugby time service, which broadcasts UTC time over radio. This is reliable, but not authenticated. You can get a serial dongle and software that receives this for very little money.
Apple are already making it incompatible with generic Intel (presumably x86 as Windows XP runs on it) hardware. Isn't this anti-competive/monopolistic already?
No. It means that the user can't play DRM'ed material even if they have paid, if the copyright owner feels that way inclined. Which is BNR, as copyright only restricts distribution and public display.
Well, it jsut goes to show, it's really a computer. Even at ~500 it's still cheap for the processing power it seem you are going to get. However, given the history of consoles, it's probably going to come with some DRM/Official games only nonsense... would you buy a PC under htose terms?
Particularly in this digital age, it is not the act of copying that should be protected. It is the act of distribution. So I would change things such that it is legal and legally protected that once you have acquired a work by a legal distribution means, it is yours to do with as you wish. Any further clarification on what one does with the work is unneeded and counter-productive.
Also, I think the neverending extension of copyright expiration is silly. Copyright is a limited and government granted (not natural) monopoly to encourage the creative potential, not as a guarantee of exclusive profit. The limit should be reasonable and practicable (ie. not a lease of 999 years).
Remember, the Open Source community also uses copyright. Personally, I am happy for my work to go into the public domain after a few years, once it has encouraged it to be added to freely.
Possibly, in this case I would also like to see some sort of guarantee that the original, master or high quality work does become available to the public after the limitation period has ended...this may not be easy though...
This system is clearly not about copy protection. This is system is clearly created to enforce new business models under the guide of copy protection. Copyright law allows the First Owner of the work to, for a limited period, dictate how copies may be passed between owners. The two different books of this standard provide methods ('Usage Rules') beyond the scope of what copyright law allows, and is, criminally (in most countries), enforceable because the system flies under the guise of a copy protection system, (which arguably erode what is intended by copy right law anyway). Time to step up to the plate, people.
Is this a case where we should not blaming the tool? I'm (fairly) sure Intel has no vested interest in welcoming our new corporate overlords, and I'm fairly sure we can find lots of good uses for a trusted platform (that is: trusted by ourselves, not anyone else:). That was a nod at P2P, in case you missed it. So, assuming we do not whine at the tool, how do we make sure we, and the general populace, don't go the way of silliness like the DVD-CCA, iTunes, and cable companies?
Unless we actually enforce policies on what each top level (and lower) domain is named and contains, this sort of behaviour is just the extreme case of a broken/misfeatured system.
Hmm, I am seeing white spots (made up of a speckling of white pixels) on this model laptop. Is this a common problem facing LCD screens? In laptops? Does anyone know hte cause?

I'm from the Isle of Man; we already have one of these.

Sun, eat your heart out.

Sorry, that should be 'buy' (ie. they 'own' the copyrighted work)
No, it means that they can buy 'IP' (by which I presume you mean a copyrighted work) which has been succesfully DRM'ed.
