Uhm, I guess someone should tell you this before you get your hopes up too high, you can't really hear 192KHz (and very few speaker and amplifiers can even go that high). I'm afraid to have to do with the old tada.wma.;p
There's a difference between "sounds" at a frequency of 192KHz and sounds that are within the range of human hearing which just happen to be sampled 192,000 times per second.
Yeah, I went to Adobe's site to watch a video and those cocksuckers require Flash. I can see why Adobe puts their videos on the net -- it's because they want more Flash penetration. I hope Adobe rots in hell when they all die.
Actually, no, it isn't. There was no GPL'd kernel for GNU before Linux came.
What you're saying is that if I were to hypothetically take a piece of code that's in the public domain and slap the GPL on it, I will have created an entirely new piece of software that's not a "me too" product because the license is what uniquely identifies it rather than the functionality?

You might want to prefix that with something along the lines of "There are four boxes to use in the defense of liberties:..."
However, it's arguable as to whether that's really applicable in this particular instance. If you're downloading a crapload of MP3s and sticking them on your iPod to listen to, then that's hardly fair use. If a student is being sued for using music in an instructional video, then yeah... start going through the boxes.
Then we're actually having the same thoughts, since I was not talking about a need for recognition, I was just trying to say that people feel good and better when recognized.
In my more argumentative days of years past I would have launched into a post about the fundamental lack of difference, psychologically, between wants and needs. However, I'd just end up boring myself to death so let's agree that it's good to recognize others for their hard work.
So, now that I did, I have an additional question: where are the "usual copyright and attribution statements"? Where are they on the site? I can't see them. Please help this emo kid.
If the terms of the license aren't being adhered to, then that's legitimate reason to complain. And yes, it is nice to give credit even when it's not required. What's not legitimate is complaining that someone's not pandering to an emotional need for recognition.
Nothing to see here, go on with your Microsoft basing.
Indeed. Theodp is taking a break from his usual patent bashing to slam others for using code according to the terms of the license it was issued under.
FLOSS coders at least want recognition. Not everyone, but many do. Who has said "thanks" to them, who has said "this would not be possible without works of so-and-so"? That's what coders want, at the very least. Apple acknowledges FreeBSD's work. Did the US Government?
Do the license terms require someone to say "thanks" to them beyond the usual copyright notice and attribution statement? No? Then nobody cares that you didn't get the recognition that you didn't ask for, emo kid.
A record of your actions can't be used against you? That would make video cameras useless as evidence since it records your own actions and would constitute testimony against you.
The code should be open source. That way nobody has an edge.
Why not just take all the money in the system and distribute it to each citizen equally? That way, we won't have different classes of people and one comrade will not have a financial edge over another.
Maybe Goldman is worried that if someone reviews the code, they might be able to discover that Goldman is gaming the system and the source code is just the smoking gun.
The system is a game. As long as Goldman operates within the rules, it's all fair play.
It's more like multi-level marketing than a ponzi. With a ponzi scheme, it's impossible to carry on long-term because the offer (investment) generally has no intrinsic value whatsoever. With multi-level marketing, the offer (product/service) generally does have value, but it comes with an overly inflated price resulting in a large number of people losing money in order to have others make money.
I agree. I will now spend the next hour reading dozens of peoples' attempts to summarize while also reading all of the follow-ups because I'm too impatient to read the original.
converter? You click your location in google, and it returns a table of all the next flyby times. Please and thank you.
a search function just by searching for "ISS". Of course, it's not Google maps but will give you flyby times. You should also check whether they have some software that is able to distinguish between body and subject.

But here at Slashdot, Windows + Mac only only 50% of users.
Why is that modded insightful? It would be informative, but there is only a claim being presented with no supporting evidence.

... not only your work can be freely (as in the 4 freedoms)...
Man, everybody always ignores the fifth freedom. What's up with that?
German can sound like a pretty angry language, almost like Klingon. Maybe they're just reading love poems to one another?
So Klingon poetry is only slightly less offensive than Vogon?
You need an Intellivision on your back, and a ColecoVision makes a great hat.
For the trifecta, you need a Vectrex which makes for a small but portable stool.

... simple spelling errors cost us too much money thus making HIRING web developers a non viable alternative for us.
Did you mean "non-viable"? Syntax is important too.
40 years ago they had a lot of joint initiatives, if ya know what I mean.
Well, with the right RAID (Redundant Array of IDiots) scheme, the human brain could be harvested for perfect storage.
Finally I understand why /. exists.
Eventually, the finite number of /. monkeys will rewrite all the works of Shakespeare in Klingon.
