    Chigau!!! Fainaru Fantashi- X wa ichiban warui geimu da.

    Please, I can't believe that they've had such success that they made Final Fantasy Ten Two. The battles were so repetitive and the story was so ridiculous. I especially hated Yuna's ridiculous "sending" dance.

    Wouldn't it be great if that was a preview of things to come if this bill works? Yeah it's not exactly what we wanted but it does restrict them quite a bit and opens them up for legal repercussions for spam-blasting pron to teenagers. Things won't be as easy as harvesting addresses & blasting users with crap. I personally like it. If they don't have working unsubscribe mechanisms, forge headers, relay off of unsuspecting users, etc they can be prosecuted.

    It's not pron. It's pr0n. If y0u'r3 g01ng +0 do 31337 $93aK, 9l3ase d0 i+ r1gh7.

  9. Re:The fundamental flaw... on New Online Music Service For Australia · · Score: 4, Insightful
    OK, how about this:

    I'd just like to point out the fact that using encryption and spoofing addresses and ports are methods for hiding your actions and keeping secrets. Remember how Janet Reno said that they needed to crack down on encryption because it made it "difficult for us [law enforcement] to do out jobs?" Remember the Clinton administration's "Clipper" chip initiative to have the government keep copies of all our encryption keys so that they could snoop on whoever they please?

    These methods of hiding what we're doing will not bode any better with the RIAA than they did with Janet Reno's Department of Justice. Face it: the guys and gals over at the RIAA believe that they are entitled to collect money from us for music. They will hate this. I imagine that their push for draconian laws against techniques such as encryption would make their push for the DMCA look like a cakewalk by comparison. However, I hope that as they did in the past derailing the "Clippr" initiative, people will be able to see how this organization wants to restrict our freedoms. I believe that there are far more people who would be concerned if they wanted to outlaw encryption than are concerned about the DMCA.

    I know that I'm a bit off-topic here, but I'd like to mention this while we're talking about making changes to Linux.

    Am I the only one who is tired of setting up joysticks on Linux by inserting kernel modules. Couldn't RedHat et al come up with a nifty configuration tool like Microsoft's joystick tool in the control panel?
