Who should these people ask? Woodie Guthrie is dead. And the record shows that he wanted the song spread, morphed, etc. He drew as an artist from the public domain, and gave back to it.
Whoever the greedy f*cks are who own his estate now, they don't speak for Woody.
Part of what is poisioning the issue of 'free speech' is the blurring of the difference between free, protected political speech, and all the drivel and crap that tries to climb on the coattails of the first amendment.
I.e. things like pornography and 'artistic' works, which is often neither speech nor political. 90% of what Larry Flynt publishes should have no first amendment protection, for instance.
A public domain recording might have that problem, but Woody Gutherie was writing a song. Distributed, in part, by an oral tradition.
This is snively chicken-shit descendents of Woody Gutherie, or those who bought his 'legacy' from said chicken-shit descendents (hi Arlo!) selling him out.
Yes, but he's angry that it even exists in the hardware.
He's bought into Microsoft's legacy-free hype. I used to say that a Microsoft-approved 'PC 98' machine was one where the headers for 'legacy' ports had been cut off and the ISA slot connectors were filled with potting epoxy.
I really see lot of indie label rising because of all that.
Perhaps when said 'indie labels' produce entertainment that enough people like, they'll matter.
A hundred years from now, there might be a mention of Frank Zappa in large encyclopedias, but nobody will bother to include clips of any of his music. Many 'indies' produce music just as listenable, with equivalent entertainment value. They have great tuFF Rebel value, of course.
Naw. I actually bought a nice hardwood spanking paddle on eBay awhile back. Not a peep out of the wife. It's not her perogative to complain about what I buy (within reason and within our consensual relationship).
There are selling/buying categories on eBay that are rife with that kind of scamming, both on the part of buyers and sellers.
You've gotta do some feedback research before bidding on certain kinds of items, and you'll still find there are categories on eBay to stay away from in general.
Usually it's the 'kiddie' items like videogames, comix, etc. The kind of stuff whiney 14 year olds lust after. There are a lot of whiney 14 year olds out there, some even trying to 'trade up' their old console for something new.
Get with it, and become 'part of the community' or just drop out if you can't cope with it.
so removing the "inconvenience" of having to place the iPod in the Dock
The 'inconvenience' isn't placing the 'iPod' in the 'Dock,' the inconvenience is the requirement that the 'Dock' exist at all. A wireless design would mean that the iPod could connect to any system which included the wireless hardware, which said system includes by default.
The 'inconvenience' is having to purchase, install, and maintain 'Docks' all over the place, at any location where one wants to 'sync' or connect the 'iPod' to the rest of the world.
and nothing can replace the ego of an American who can say he/she "saw it as it happened".
I was on Slashdot the morning of September 11, 2001, and read an off-topic comment about the crash, then turned on my TV set to see the live images of the burning tower (before the second plane).
I am just enjoying a fresh new version of the musty old Stalinist boilerplate that made old-school communist publications just a joy to mock.
Example: the photo captioned:
Supreme Commander Kim Jong Il visits the Mangyongdae Revolutionary School on a snowy New Year's Day.
This school is a grand palace of learning of the bereaved children of the revolutionary martyrs which President Kim Il Sung established in person.
That sort of stuff hasn't made it west since the Enver Hoxa folks in Albania stopped shipping their stuff over for 'New Left' consumtion.

You are an out of work, homeless, software developer, and the library won't let you compile software on one of their computers.
Have one of your employed buddies plug a 386 box from the thrift store into their subnet for you to shell into. Sheesh. You can run Linux on laptops that sell under $10 at surplus auctions these days....

Quit with the class warfare drivel, dude.
Wellstone was a squeaky-voiced nitwit. A gasbag who promised his constituents he would only be a one-term Senator. Until he got the 'power' bug.
He attended the same temple as Rudy Boschwitz, btw.

It's sort of crass to make crude fun of how somebody died in an accident.
But we're probably all better off with Sonny Bono and Paul Wellstone dead, so I guess it's okay to make suchlike comments.
My first 486 motherboard was a Shuttle. And they've built decent reliable hardware ever since.

that can be placed in the lounge.

Shouldn't this be a YRO story? Putting it under the 'Google' topic header makes it seem like it's a Google-owned issue.
I hope it isn't.
Anybody who distributes the OSS will be sued.
Sure, you can use Freenet to distribute it.
That's not gonna win any commercial IT penetration.
Until OpenOffice matures a little more, people *should* be afraid to use it.
I can run Word 2000 and Excel 2000 on a 486-100 laptop with 32 megs of RAM.
OpenOffice KILLS the machine.
The best thing you can do is support initiatives like iTunes.
I should shovel a bunch of money at the Apple Computer Company? Don't I have to buy their special hardware even to play those iTunes?
Shouldn't Apple generously donate the tech needed to play their iTunes to some third party, or better yet, an open hardware/software organization?
Or are they just another commercial operator?

Are you the guy who actually went to the forged website in the spam and gave them your PayPal password?
Is that PayPal's fault?

Upstairs? I thought he lived in the little closet compartment 'under the stairs' leading to the second floor.
Well, he can pretend, anyway.

Sad or what?
Food? Mere food??
They're doing an excellent example of meeting domestic needs. Reference: The leader Kim Jong Il, while on his visit to the Hamhung Disabled Soldiers' Plastic Daily Necessities Factory.
They've made great strides in providing daily necessities. Who could ask for more?

You can also do the same thing with Windows NT variants if you install Interix. Not sure if they've wiped away the X11 in SFU though.
