A little off topic, but your point about canidates trying to score points near the election triggered something I have been waiting for people to start discussing, but haven't seen.
I have been hearing lots of reports about how Bush has stated over and over that he has confidence the Republicans will maintain control of the house. He even critcised a comment made by his father, about how hard the next few years will be if the Democrates take control of the house, and Bush's response was "He shouldn't be speculating like this, because -- he should have called me ahead of time and I'd tell him they're not going to (win),"http://today.reuters.com/news/articlenews.a spx?type=politicsNews&storyid=2006-10-22T193206Z_0 1_N22305445_RTRUKOC_0_US-BUSH-FATHER.xml. Even thou this sounds like an admission that he plans to steal the election, and I wouldn't put it past him to try, most election fraud is to swing just enough votes to win a close election, so far it doesn't look like this election is close. I think instead he is going to use Bin Laden's trial to scare people into voting Republican. I just can't see it being a coincedence that the verdict is being read 2 days before elections http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,221101,00.html
I suspect they will call for an execution, probably Nov 6th or 7th. They are using a man's life to gain points in an election. This man was a US ally for many decades. Even assuming he is guilty and should be taken out of power, should his life be used as a pawn to sway the American vote.
On a similar subject, I also heard on the news that the Republicans are releasing a campaign "warning" people of more terroist attacks if they are not re-elected http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2006/10/19/gop-to-ru n-ad-warning-aga_n_32103.html. Terroism is defined by the US Department of Defense as "the unlawful use of -- or threatened use of -- force or violence against individuals or property to coerce or intimidate governments or societies, often to achieve political, religious, or ideological objectives." How does this not fall under that definition?
I was hoping that the time was drawing near for people to wake up and change the current situation in goverment, but I don't have enough faith in people anymore to think for themselves instead of believing whatever they are told by our goverment on TV.
Someone tried that, the judge took it as an admission of guilt, and nailed them with everything the RIAA said they thought the guy had because there was no way to prove otherwise.
I think you would be better off encrypting the data, having a third party examine it, and get the mutually agreed conditions to be that they only look for music files and signs that music files have been deleted, as nothing else pertains to their case, and is an evasion of your privacy. If someone ask what that big encrypted file is, tell them you made a home movie with your girlfriend and swore a blood oath that you would never let anyone else see it, or you would have to cut off certain valued parts of your anatomy featured in said video. Maybe that would fall under some kind of stipulation about discovery not causing harm.
People are getting upset, because sony is using their position as copyright holder to destroy the free market and make the grey market a black market.
Copyrights were intended to give an incetive for people to make creative works. Not control a global economy so they can set the highest price each individual market can bare by closing out all trade, or depriving people from having access to a creative work just because it was not profitable in their sector.
Catch 22, the requirements to be found guilty of treason are in the US Constitution, if you succesfully declare the Constitution as no longer being valid, there is no more treason.
Open source and Free do not have to be one in the same. Many database companies have many options available to open source their code. Nobody is willing to pay tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars for software, and risk losing all of their records because they are stored in a proprietary format. For an extra fee most companies will put the code in an escrow account, usually with stipulations that if the company goes bankrupt or otherwise can no longer support the code, it will be released. For a greater fee most companies will give you the source code up front, and a license to expand it for in house use only. Some companies will let you buy a license to expand the code for specialized use and sell it for a profit. In all these cases the company maked money, and retains rights to their source code. Just because something is published does not make it free for the taking.
Most goverment contracts have a clause requiring all source code be kept in escrow for this reason. If you hate working with the onboard computer on a car, imagine being stuck behind enemy lines in a new tank trying to figure out what error code 157 is and why it won't allow the engine to start. The military has to know what it is running on its equipment. I want to know why an exception was made for Diebold. It is my understanding that Windows has versions that allow just such a thing to meet military contracts. Just because Diebold uses a windows platform is no excuss around this requirement.
I am all for letting everyone practice whatever their beliefs, but I am for letting them practicing equally. I have a personal beef with the schools system for only allowing religious organizations that they personally find acceptable. The local school even states in their policy that the only uniforms allowed are for ROTC and Boy Scouts. I am a humanist, I believe in Peace and Getting support from other human being instead of waiting for divine intervention (on a personal note, I think I have made an involentary exception to that for the upcomming elections), why can't I have an organization advertised in the school by allowing the children to wear a uniform?
They have to extrapolate it. How else do they know it is valid. The only way for this to work is to have table of hash values for know phishing sites. It is nothing to include a second table for all the sites you want tracked.
Luckly for us, the natural radioactive decay of Uranium has caused to do decay to a ratio that is no longer capable of sustain a reaction on its own. That is why we need to enrich Uranium for nuclear reactions, to conentrate the atoms that are still radio active into a tight enough density to sustain the reaction.
Unless that diary is on a secure computer system! You don't think that Ma Bell keeps the logs of everyones phone records in a handwritten ledger do you?
I am just wondering how you are suppose to get those facts, if you are not allowed to question the reputation of the person that would need to be investigated. If I can't question my goverment because it iplies that someone in the goverment is not doing something proper, how do I prevent them from doing what is improper?
And make the opening screen display an md5 checksum of the rom which should be made publicly available 1 month before the election. If they don't have the code available at least a month before elections, that code shouldn't be used anyway.
And how do you check if they are related. I like knowing what my nephew is doing on line, but because of a serperation an marriage, his last name, my last name, and his mom's current last name, and his mom's previous name do not match.
I can see keeping someone out that has been tried and found guilty in a court of law, "Stop it now before abuse happens" smack of guilty until proven guilty. You don't even get a shot at proving yourself innocent, yet alone being presumed innocent. I agree with check to see what is happening. Require an email address for a guardian for anyone under 18, and notify them if an adult wants to be the child's friend, but there are several reasons for an older man and younger kid to interact on the internet as well as real life.
In my above situation we are related. In another, my live in girlfriend has a 6 year old daughter that I am not related to, but lives with me. She already has an email account, that her mother monitors strictly. In a few more years, when she gets her own computer with internet access, I am the one that is going to be making sure she learns about the internet. If she has an account anywhere, I will be monitoring it on a regular basis. There is no way to determine that I am a protector and not a predator other than asking her parents.
On top of that, people seem to get child molester and sexual offender mixed up. He wrote a script that checked for sexual offenders. A few of them turned out to be child molestors. In some states if you are caught at a frat party in your underwear, you are a sexual offender. I think it was Ohio that tried to pass a law, that if you were accused of being a sexual offender, you had to register as a sexual offender for 7 years before you could petition the court to get your name removed.
You made the point that "Virtual Reality is meant for people to get away from their everyday lives. It's not even in the slightest meant to be a model for real life actions."
Virtual Reality is by definition a model for real life actions. Video games are meant for people to get away from their everyday lives. There are Virtual Reality simulators which are fully intened to teach people how to kill, most of them in use by the US goverment. Video games still strive for realism in some way. What makes them fun is where they deviate from reality, video games let you do things that you wouldn't be able to do in real life.
Yes - the grenades blow up and have realistic shrapnal due to the new physics processor.
No - that does not mean we are really being invaded by an alien lifeform.
Yes - you can see the new hat on your character when you equip it
No - putting a hat on does not suddenly give you the real ability to cast fireball

You seem to have a strong opinion and vague concept of markets to back it up. See if this helps:
A free market which is suppose to be the system we have is defined as unregulated or controlled:

The black market involved buying and selling things illegally:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_market
A grey market means through channels not intended from the manufacturere:

You ask this like it is a remote possability in the future. It was already done:

Not only is it naturally radio active, It has been discovered that under the right conditions nuclear reactions have occured naturally also.
