  6. Re:A Guilty Proposal... on iTunes Australia to Launch Next Week · · Score: 2, Interesting

    a great idea! But I would change the name of the website. Usual paranoia feelings - if the web site owners ever got sued and were forced to hand over user details then suing your arse in turn might be too easily as you've kinda already admitted guilt. Just a donation/thankyou site where you can give money to artists because you know they are getting ripped off by the music industry would be better methinks - thanksforthemusic.com???

    whatever - but I still say you don't know technically what you are talking about.

  8. Re:Pfft. on The Microsoft Protection Racket · · Score: 1

    I actually think you don't know what you are talking about. "my daily existence a living hell"? Are you referring to Windows dll hell or your clothes you mother makes you wear? ZING! Either way you are overreacting and I am being a smart ARSE.

    MS know this. It was addressed with the .NET framework. Do some research.

    My parents use FF and they surely are not geeks. How many of us have set up FF on a friends/relos pc? Geek percentage is less than you say methinks

  16. Re:Ramblings on Mobile Top Level Domain Gets ICANN Nod · · Score: 1

    All flavours of the Pocket PC/Smartphone (2002/3/5) support xhtml via Pocket Internet Explorer. I suggest you check out Windows Mobile 5.0/2005 http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/5/default.m spx. I agree about the flaky comment in past versions though.

    WML is actually being phased out as the micro-browser default markup language with xhtml, xhtml MP (WAP v2.0) and cthml becoming more popular.

    Not insanely http://www.aic.gov.au/stats/. Crime is everywhere anyway, there are jails in every country.

    Duke Nukem is a Nazi? I suppose Fuzzy Wuzzy is a woman then too?

  21. Re:What about tax reform ideas? on eBay sellers Told to Include GST · · Score: 1

    One thing that scares the Australian government (and perhaps the US too) is the old idea of bartering. I remember when the GST was introduced here and a journalist asked our Treasurer about it - he squirmed.
