I've seen the same allegory, just a little detail: imagine that to place those X you generate a sinusoidal wave at every starting point with size equal to distance to '0' point. The 'X's goes to where sinusoidals croses the line.
There are still unexplored ways to sell digital music.
First one: from musicians directly to people, no distributors, no vampires.
Second: "Personalizing", I want MY copy of this song, made by the artist for ME, nothing more, nothing less.
Third: Because my money goes directly to the artist, i want-it to be "Cheap", and I want the artist to go rich, no feed to vampires.
I don't buy the idea. CLI and strings of chars are useful because are simple. XML IS NOT simple. Look at how many programs in our compuyters process text data, pretending to have a similar amount of programs for alternate XML processing is just a vaste of time.
is politics and economics, nuclear, sun, coal, oil it doesn't matter. 'Interest and greed' is what is killing the global ecosystem, nuclear plants will not make it better, just more radioactive.
So... a 'techie' who wrote drivers 20 years ago discover a linux distribution that has a problem width his hardware, don't even care to tell slahdot people what hardware (sound car) is, but wrote 2 articles about it?

Father and son, son and father. National pride?. It doesn't matter, both are just one family!.
Not sure about conspiration, but rather plain history.
South Europe (Spain/Portugal) massacred Central/South America, North Europe (France/England) massacred North America.
Early US history (constitution/presidents/simbols) is filled with explicit masonic references.
Good! The experiment continues, now we'll have software industry with & without patents in each side of Atlantic.
Monopolies (US economy) vs Regulations (EU politics).
In the long run EU-US / US-EU will have to synchronice not only patent systems, but also legal and fiscal proceedings. The first step is already done with the euro / dollar semi-parity, it seems the rest will follow as soon as world can accept.
Everybody is upset about this pictures, the sadest point is that nobody seems to be upset for those thousands of innocents deaths. That's the nature of the war beast, it's not news, it's not new, but it's there.
'One way' classical layered models can be said to be 'passe', but recurent o 'looped' conectionist models are far from being understood, in fact, are a great source of advances.
How likely is it that any of those four people knew about a civilization 9000 years before them.. how much do we KNOW about anything that happened 9000 years ago.. and we have a lot of technology to aid us now that did not exists during those times...
Our current characteristics are not universal, in fact our actual civilization is extremely ignorant about our own history. Past civilization were not so ignorant, 'progress idea & technology worship' are just 200 years old inventions. I don't subcribe that arrogant and unsustained opinion about our status, for example, Plato the very same one who told us about Atlantis, has never been surpased as a philosofer!:)
In greek times there was memories of severals floods, three thousand years after, we have to rediscover that almost every tradition remember at least a major destruction by flood or fire.
It seems that each day we learn something, we also forget something. Hope not to forget what our ancestors believe it was so important to have to be passed to future generations, formerly that humans have barely managed to survive major environment destructions.
Just think how many times we use to say 'let's not forget' (ej. 9/11) and how fragile and selectives our memories are!

TDE is an abusive monopoly, it has been fined for abusive actions, and sure, they don't care about his customers, but blacklisting a whole country does not help, because abussing innocents has never been the right thing to do.
Hey AHBL people, there's a new goverment in Spain, why not to contact them before listing thousands of legal sites as spammers? Care to explain? I don't like monopolies, and I have not simpaty for TDE, not at all, but you're damaging OTHER people!.
Not so clear, different problems needs different solutions. In my experience (C/asm & Java/C++) the cost of proper error handling is pretty much the same, and is directly proportional to the desired code quality level,not to language facilities.
Slashdot Mirror
So, here's the Slashdot challenge: Come up with and implement a scheme to draw the media's attention to this issue.
Easy, publicly use the /. effect on selected sites.

If Crosby is so upset about being screwed by the record labels, why isn't he happy that the only people being screwed now are the talentless bimboes?
Because if you love music (or art), it hurts to see it trashed by bussinesmen and money-adicts.

When were jammin' in our old garage
The girls come over and it sure gets hot
We don't wanna be watered down
Takin' orders from record company clowns.
That's why we don't wanna be good
That's why we don't wanna be good
We're prisoners of rock and roll.

Actual setups are so simple that there's no possibility to separate 'game strategy' and 'game playing', that's the problem.
Biological systems apply 'evolutive learnning' at every level, form 'upper decision' to 'simple mechanics' behaviours and structures.

Let's see.. we live in our homes.. (/home/).
And then go out to walk on street... (mv /tmp)
We see but don't interact with others (ronly access files in /tmp).
We notice familiar strangers (those 'always there' files in /tmp).
An 'event' has to happen to convert one of those strangers (ronly files) to someone knew (changing permissions).
See.. we live in /tmp! :)

They are not their customers. Telefonica sells ADSL services to other ISP, wich sell the service to the users.
Sorry, dude, that could be ok if Telefonica wasn't the biggest end user ADSL spanish seller.
They don't care because they have monopoly power and the personal blessing of the previous goverment president.
And don't forget that Telefonica has been found guilty and punished for anticompetitive ilegal actions againts those other 'subrogated' ISP providers.
That being said, AHBL action is not fair because they are listing thousands of sites as spammers when they are not.
