I'd imagine that all that would have to be done is to put the player in a pressure vessel, much like the underwater housings used for video cameras. or simply inject the player with some kind of resin, since it doesn't need moving parts anyways the only concerns would be an lcd (replace with a button activated LED array?) and the battery (would pressure be an issue for it?)
simple, replace the source code requirement with the ability to use and distribute samples of arbitrary length, thus allowing anyone to release, in whole the work (sample length = song length) or as a short piece for traditional sample, or about half for "mash ups"
yea and when one of the IT guys walks past his office or the internal sites start showing firefox User Agent strings they track it to him and he gets fired.

Google Desktop search didn't seem to take privacy that seriously...
nice Troll, too bad it's pretty well known now that the "Google desktop search is spyware" FUD has already been debunked
actually the record companies use loopholes to get around the law by pating promoters to do it, just because some companies dodge taxes by incorporating in bermuda should we legalize tax evasion? Yes I do think the market should decide what gets played on the radio, however Record promoters bribing station managers to play their songs IS NOT the market deciding, it is bribary.
(BTW, holding a licensee IS holding a property right!)
that is true but a license is not a right to do as you wish, just as having a license to a piece of software does not mean you can do whatever you want with it. Just because i bought my copy of windows should i have the right to start up a CD press and start selling copies of my property? What about CD's? My new Nightwish CD is my property but that doesn't mean i can make 50 copies of it and hand them out to people.
We used to live in a country we owned what we owned and had the right to make contracts regarding our property, obviously those days are gone.
Except that the licensed broadcast spectrum is not private property, it belongs to everyone and the government is allowed to place restrictions on what you can do while boadcasting.
actually you are helping the publisher, whenever a paying cusomer downloads a pirated copy of the game they bought they are using bandwidth which would otherwise have helped someone who didn't pay for the game to get the game.
There is an error on the page you linked to, the "right" diagram shows the solder sanwiched between the iron and the joint, hte iron should be on one part of the joint and the solder on another, that way the heat draws the solder into the joint and forms a strong bond, if the solder is hotter than the joint (as in the "right" diagram) the joint will be significantly weaker.
NY Times Ad CampaignLet's mark the launch of Firefox 1.0 with a community marketing campaign that will take the buzz around Firefox to the next level: the first-ever, full-page advertisement in a major daily newspaper created and paid for by the open source community.
Here is how it works:
* The full-page ad will include the names of everyone who supports the campaign along with a message about the benefits/features of Firefox.
* The campaign will act as a fundraiser to support all Firefox 1.0 launch activities, not just the ad itself.
* An individual contribution of $30 will get your name included in the ad ($10 student rate).
* Special recognition -- Community Champion -- will be given to people who enlist 10 of their friends in this campaign. (These folks have a shot at having their name in the lower half of the ad.)
* There are also two packages available for businesses to participate.
* If you have a Spread Firefox account, you will receive 100 sfx points per name slot that you purchase or refer.
* The goal: sign up 2500 names!
* More questions? Check the FAQ.
* Ready? Click the newspaper on the upper right to join in!
We (sfx members and Firefox users) will only ever have one Firefox 1.0 launch -- this is it! Let's take the world by storm.
PS: The buzz about this campaign is already starting. Check out the story on eWeek!
PS2: Thanks to everyone who's uploaded images showing how you're spreading the fire. Keep those images coming!
well considering that the worst thing I have heard of Amazon doing is patenting a useless feature, while the worst thing BN does is assrapes college students through Campus Bookstore "partenerships" I'll go with Amazon, as they are less evil.

because of course it would be impossible to write a script that downloaded your gmail messages if you neede to.

windows CE is an actual RealTime OS, Pocket PC is primarily a PDA OS
that will have WAY more power.
And will also DRAW way more power, as well as put out more heat.
I would guess that the water is in fact used for something, if it comes out as clean as it goes in it is probably warmer on the way out.

6800 > X800 *PERIOD*
IIRC the X800 only requires a single slot and doesn't need a nuclear reactor to power it, unlike the 6800 Ultra
hell, add special features for X11 Acceleration and the deal gets sweeter.

too bad GSM lags behind in features, bandwidth, and Call Quality, i would love to see SIM-Card style activation in CDMA phones.
last time i checked you were wrong. CDDA is waveform data with an amount of metadata as well.
The method you describe osunds effective, i usually just put a bit extra on the iron forst to act as a bridge.

not unless he released CherryOS under the GPL
on lower end windows machines miranda is the better choice, it is a native win32 program rather than using gtk+.
the whole point of such a service is that the more people using it the better and more useful it is.

I am pretty sure the regulations would restrict the EXPORT of personal information.
