What a misleading article! Even the Wired
article clears this up. The Secret Service
did not raid them for credit card fraud. This
is obvious. The secret service is trying
to interfere with their operations. They are trying to thwart digital cash! The guy who
runs e-gold even said that he stopped accepting
credit cards long before the raid. No, I'm
not a big conspiracy theorist. The issue here is obvious.
Digital cash thwarts taxes, government regulation,
and government monitoring. Whoever approved this
article is doing a disservice to Slashdot readers
by stating that, "oh, it failed because
of credit card fraud." NO. This is a raid designed to stop our RIGHTS.
Many region 1 disks have had this restriction
for a while now!! Many DVD players support
Region 1-10 and Bypass. Think of this simply
as 11 regions. Most discs are supposed to run
with Region 1 or Bypass. Some will detect bypass,
and refuse to run. The solution is to use a
player like the older Apex which allows you to select the exact region.
I tried running it on a server which has
about 50000 or so separate clients throughout the day, and found a number of bugs. Some of the
bugs prevent bind9 from answering queries,
as it has a mechanism to prevent more then 1000
simultaneous queries by default. Raise it and
BIND fucks up with strange bugs which make it loop
and eat all CPU. Time for the debugger. Or,
maybe http://www.dents.org/
It is almost as if this IM business is a
diversion from the real issue that you have
the largest ISP in the USA (AOL in the USA
has as many customers as all other USA ISP's combined) joining one of the largest mass-media forces
in the USA. AOL is a content provider...
Liars meet liars!! And
don't get me started on all the problems
with mass media. I don't see how this provides ANY advantage to users, consumers. The
more this type of power is collected into smaller
administrative spaces, the more control and power
these people assume.
No, Kerberos is BSD licensed. But, it does not even appear that Microsoft used much of that code. Windows is significantly different from Unix to make that a stupid idea.
The RIAA's arguments here are really no different then they were before. They are simply being more elaborate. I expect Napster to do the same, this is just a big game.
What some readers here don't realize is that this is a game which will determine the future for these technologies to some extent, at least for US citizens. Both sides are lying and using underhanded tactics, although the RIAA tries to appear to do so less then Napster, it is the same thing.
Vote for the RIAA if you are part of their system. Vote for Napster if you like MP3s. That's about all there is to it. Everyone is lying to you, Napster has their own commercial agendas which if they were able to follow I bet would make them just as nasty as the RIAA.
The precedent that needs to be set is whether it is legal for people to share music. Well, is it legal ONLINE...... The Net is a new avenue for commerce, and the good 'ol boys are not going to let the control fall into the hands of the users....
Fight for what you think is right, My opinion is that Napster should win, not out of any respect for the company, but rather for the ability to share music without breaking US law.
This law also sets precedent in other countries that follow international copyright treaties. Beware.
This article is silly. Someone didn't do enough research. Of course Linux works fine on these machines. The issues are minor, with unsupported IDE controllers and AGP busses. If you want real support for the IDE controllers, use OpenBSD. It works flawlessly with AMD and VIA ide controllers.

Would you care to explain these political motivations?
It's good to see that these people are using their natural senses.

This article says "OpenBSD population 7000"
7000 is an accurate number of CDs sold for OpenBSD 2.6, but not total!!!
Who gives a crap that someone is releasing
a piece of shit Cyrix based computer running
Linux?
What is the big hype? There is no LCD screen,
and in fact the monitor just costs more.
The cmd 0640 has been supported since OpenBSD 2.6
Even with a work-around for it's stupid bug!!
Well..At least on the power supplies...On the Tera, they run OpenBSD/mvme68k
OpenBSD is going to be including the real-time
code from http://www.rtmx.com/ under the BSD
license. You can't get any better then that!
