  12. Re:What are we buying? on RIAA: Ripping CDs to iPod not 'Fair Use' · · Score: 1

    When I buy a CD, am I buying the physical disc, in which case I surely get the right to do with it as I see fit, or I'm buying the right to listen to the music, in which case the media that it's on should not be relevant.

    both and neither. it's like light. photons and waves.

  13. Re:Buy it again, Sam. on RIAA: Ripping CDs to iPod not 'Fair Use' · · Score: 1

    maybe it's just me, but when i see that statement it makes me think i've already paid for the license, so the second time i should only have to pay for the physical media. what's a single blank CD go for these days? the "affordable replacement" should be that plus a small production fee. if you can prove you have a damaged CD, you should be able to replace it for under a dollar by this logic.

    they seem to feel that buying CDs is both a physical item purchase and a license purchase, much in the way light is both waves and photons. when you want to back it up, you've bought a license which does not allow that, when you want your licensed data replaced, you only bought a physical item which much like a broken lamp will not be replaced for free.

    i would prefer an x and a square under my right thumb for gas and brake. seriously, i was just playing a game last night where steering and acceleration were both on the left analog stick and i find it far more dificult.

  20. Re:who cares? on High-tech Cars Replacing Driver Skill? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    i've heard they already have these "cars." they hold lots of people and they tend to hook them together into a "train."

  21. Re:Incorrect again on Share Your Most Dangerous Idea · · Score: 1

    sure, let me quote you quoting wikipedia (which for some reason is the end all of most of my office debates lately)

    generally speaking, atheism refers to a lack of belief in all deities for any reason(s).

    also, dictionary.com:
    1.
    1. Disbelief in or denial of the existence of God or gods.
    2. The doctrine that there is no God or gods.
    2. Godlessness; immorality.

  22. Re:Incorrect again on Share Your Most Dangerous Idea · · Score: 2, Informative

    Agnosticism is the belief that we cannot know if a god or gods exists; that is it beyond our comprehension.

    you're right on athiesm though.

  25. Re:Where's the FM tuner??? on Ars Technica's iPod nano Dissection · · Score: 1

    concidentally, as i was reading this comment, my npr station advertised that programs are available at npr.org/podcasting. aside from the link being wrong it seems like they are offering up some, but many of the better shows are missing. all things considered is there, but i actually get to hear that on the drive in.
