  1. Re:While we're at it on File Trading Law Would Include 'Willing' Traders · · Score: 4, Funny

    people who illegally perform plays and musical pieces go to jail

    Great! So my buddy who can't carry a tune but insists on singing... I can finally have put away? :)

  2. Re:Nothing for you to see here. Please move along. on Will Google Launch A Browser? · · Score: 1

    It seems like these days everybody wants to be a search engine, everybody wants to offer a music download service. Now is everyone going to offer thier own browers?

    Sour grapes because you don't have your own search engine, music download service, and browser? ;)

    Don't forget to launch your own IM while you're at it! :)

  3. Not Dell.... on Yahoo! Buys Musicmatch · · Score: 3, Interesting

    And I thought for sure that Dell would have been the one to buy up MusicMatch. Oh well, as long as Yahoo can keep up the high quality that I've become accustomed to with MM, I'll be happy--not likely given their history though :(

  4. Re:RFID in the UK on RFID Coming 'Whether You Like It Or Not' · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Insurance companies will love this. You go to the doc for a physical and in addition to everything else, the nurse scans you. The doc comes into the little room (eventually) shaking her head and disciplines you for not following your diet. Of course, this gets reported to your insurance co and your rates go up :)

  5. Re:What about Apple? on Microsoft Facing European Sanctions · · Score: 1, Funny

    Neither is MS. Hate them though we will, as long as they have competition, they cannot, by definition, have a monopoly.

  6. Re:No on Is Your Silver-based Thermal Paste Really Silver? · · Score: 0

    But are baby powder & baby oil made from babies?

  7. Re:I'm biased on this subject on Court Rules Against Photographers in Copyright Suit · · Score: 0

    The actual product/license line is probably somewhat blurry for a photographer/client. Because, in addition to the actual photographic print and the right to copy (product and license respectively) there is, especially when talking about film photographers, always the original (negative) So, I believe that unless the photog sells the negative, she always retains the right of reproduction. Therefore she could always sell the 'product' again (with the consumption of a few chemicals & some paper of course). But, in my limited experience, no two prints are ever the same--well, at least not if you're enlarging them yourself.
