  1. Talk to the EFF on Viacom Says User Infringed His Own Copyright · · Score: 1

    I'm surprised to see it appears that no one has mentioned the EFF. They regularly deal with issues such as these.

    I'm not sure which way they'd lean on this, but they'd certainly know the answer, and may help out with legal action if there's any to be taken.

  2. Re:Those PDF's again... aaargh on Why I Hate the Apache Web Server · · Score: 1

    Here's another FF extension that I find mildly useful: http://www.bolinfest.com/targetalert/ Similar to the CSS strategy below (probably what it uses, I don't know), but it's done for you, plus handles all kinds of various links that can be annoying, plus it's very configureable.

  3. Re:Flame me, but... on Tinfoil Hat House · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Ah yes, at first glance, I thought this was an Arrested Development ref. (like here). Sacramende! And A.D.'s been renewed! Woohoo!

  4. Re:Of course not! on Writing Software for Worldwide Distribution Proves Difficult · · Score: 1

    What an informed comment.

    Yes, the vast majority of American Christians are so ignorant that they wouldn't recognize that 2000 years ago Jesus didn't speak English.

    If you could tie it into some kind of distribution system for your house, throw in Tivo's ability to predict what your family likes, you have a very cool system. Every member of your family could be watching a different program at one time.

    You can do this now. With GPL'd software, no less. Check out MythTV. As long as you get well supported hardware and are willing to spend some time configuring, you can use multiple backends recording multiple shows at once and have multiple frontends playing the content anywhere on your LAN.

  6. Re:Capital is free to move, laborers are not on The Full Outsourcing Discussion · · Score: 1

    > nowadays, we have schmucks like Friedman telling us it's just the matter of course, that Free Trade will prevail. That

    Ooofh. I was sympathetic until the crack about Friedman. I've been reading his semi-weekly columns now for quite some time, and I've found him a very thoughtful and knowledgeable writer, especially on the Middle East.

    Get rid of the ad hominem attacks and the bitter tone and you'll get through to more people.
