  1. Re:Cease and... on RIAA Warns Individual Swappers · · Score: 1

    Since IANAL...what does cease and desist exactly mean?

  2. bandwidth is not free on Kazaa/Altnet To Pay Users For Trading Content · · Score: 2, Insightful

    If this really succeeds (I doubt it) are the ISPs going to sit and see people making money of the bandwitdth they provide? They will start charging per byte and that will offset what kazaa pays you.

  3. Re:Make your feelings known.... on Spamhaus Responds To Spammers' Lawsuit · · Score: 1

    Sweet. Someone should spam him. ;)

  4. mathematical induction on Dr. Dre to pay $1.5 mil for "Illegal Sample" · · Score: 1
    I can prove that he didn't still the bass line by mathematical induction. Would you say he stole an F# note since two bass lines start with F#? No. (p(k) is true) Now consider two notes - say F# and D. Would you say that he stole the bass line because two were same (notes and timing and the actual bass sample if you want to be picky)? I guess not. (p(k) => p(k+1)

    But seriously, at what point do you say - ok you stole this?

  5. Re:small range on Wireless at Firewire Speeds? · · Score: 1

    Interesting. Though bluetooth should work well there no?

  6. Re:Hooray on Apple Sells A Million Songs in Debut Week · · Score: 1

    Actually I'm confused by this approach of a lot of /.ers. Do you think Apple is not paying to the record labels for this? If Apple does have a deal to sell these songs and albums on iTunes, and they are not getting this directly from the artists (which they are not), isn't that a right step by the RIAA because this would have not been possible without their blessings?

  7. download? on Review of SuSE 8.2 · · Score: 1

    Where can I download suse 8.2 from? I have looked around and only hint I found was that they only have live-eval for download and although it is free,you need to get it from someone who already has it. I don't get it.

  8. Re:CEO/CIO versus the grunt laborer at the bottom on Silicon Valley Has Learned to Love the Bust · · Score: 2, Insightful

    huh? Just because you don't have the stats of the number of h1bs that got affected by this? If you are still unemployed, first of all I wish you good luck but try this - Change your resume to say you are an h1b and see how you start getting 'only permanent residents' replies.
