  1. Task Bar Grouping on Microsoft Patents Grouped Taskbar Buttons · · Score: 1

    I love it in Windows XP, but I also use Linux. MEPIS to be specific and enlightenment to be even more specific. Although I don't use the grouping in Linux, it is quite ridiculous that they award patents for things like that. But let's face it. Gates is a genius, and if we could have gotten away with it, some of us would have, for the rest of us there is integrity.

  2. Re:You'd get less time... on Senate Unanimously Passes Anti-Camcorder Bill · · Score: 1

    You would get even less time if you broke into someones car and stole them :)

  3. Colin Powell Jr. on Court Blocks FCC Media Ownership Rules · · Score: 1, Interesting

    It's about time some judge stops this freak. The FCC doesn't even follow their own regulations consistently. Especially with the unjust fining of Howard Stern. Other people do the same things he does and don't get fined. Ever since Howard Stern has been talking about about Bush and degrading him, he has had more and more problems. And of course Michael Powell (Colin Powell Jr.) has had it out for him. And of course Clear Channel Executive Michael Long ( very good friends with G.W. Bush) pulled Howard Stern off the air less than two weeks after it began. The reason everyone gives is Janet Jackson. What makes matters worse is that our own congressmen (house of representatives) and senate approved the bill ( 99 - 1) hidden under another bill by Senator Sam Brownback from Kansas, who lives in a house funded from religious groups, that increases the fines that the FCC can give for "indecency", which is whatever the FCC determines it is. Because there are no guidelines for issuing these fines, this is a complete violation of our First Admendment.
