I'm at one of the schools with people being sued for sharing music on Internet2 and I know 2 of the people personally.
What is the RIAA doing on that network in the first place? It's meant for university networks only. Copyright issues aside, they're not allowed on that network in the first place.
I would agree with you about their shorter focal lengths. If you're really looking for quality, the Carl Zeiss lenses are great, even if they are manual focus.
Well, more and more people are switching over to Canon. Nikon is starting to fall behind. Though their bodies are a bit cheaper, Canon has a better line up of lenses. (I hope Nikon steps it up a bit. Competition is good for all of us.)
Yes, Canon RAW is supported in Photoshop with the Camera RAW plugin. Photoshop CS2 is coming out very soon and should have some major improvements over PS CS.
Very few people use GIMP professionally I've found. Photography is the sole reason I've switched back from Linux. Try as it might, digikam and GIMP just can't keep up with professional grade RAW Converters such as Capture One Pro. GIMP supports RAW with the appropriate plugin, but sorry, it's just not Photoshop.
That's true. Point taken. That sounds like a nice deal.
I prefer to have complete control over the entire site and exactly how everything is handled. But that's just me.
It's so much nicer hosting your photography yourself. No worries about how much of your work you can put online, other than how much hard drive space you can cram in. I've had great luck hosting with Gallery.

I've used gaim encryption and it works very well. It requires the plugin to be installed on both ends but once that's done, it autodetects that both ends support it and enables encryption.
Oh, there's a binary available for windows and both source and packages for linux.
And, it's in portage!

the photos are in the right order. they just weren't rotated properly. when looking through the telescope, you see a mirror image of the moon in the eyepiece.
i held the camera parallel to the ground. as the eclipse progressed, the moon rose higher into the sky. the telescope had to be raised more and more vertically. thus, the eclipsed portion of the moon would appear to go from the side (correct), to near the top (incorrect). the image was right in the eyepiece but would change relative to the camera. i could have corrected this but didn't think about it. you're welcome to change it yourself in photoshop but i really don't care =)

Whether this is real or not, the Taxi Companies Google lists are going to be very happy sitting there as part of one of Google's new services.
It looks like they'll be having a Merry April Fools Day.

Here's the coralized mirror of the site.

Don't forget the Extensions for Firefox such as Ad-Block.
And of course, there's OpenOffice.

GAIM already offers two encryption plugins. It's cool to see another implementation being created.
gaim encryption uses RSA. There's also gaim-e which uses GPG.

Toshiba recalls RAM.
Sources say the reason behind this move is that the faulty memory can accessed randomly.
Toshiba unavailable for comment.
There's also community photoblogs on sites such as LiveJournal such as the Photography Community and the Photojournal Community.

I took pictures of the eclipse through a pretty big telescope and they came out quite nicely.
I've put them up here.
Perhaps, like all of us, the judges are getting tired of the RIAA's "tactics" and want it to shut up and stop whining.
I want to see someone run it in WINE.
"I'm sorry, we have no idea what is going on. Chances are, something is pirated. Please go here to purchase something legally."
Alright, someone had to do it..

Speaking of pictures, pics from this past Defcon are posted here.
Yeah, but the image on Tom's Hardware kinda stinks. There's a better one on page 2 of this gallery.
