While I agree that you should not expect to export you culture to a new country you will properly end up taking some of the old one with you and thus end up with a mix.
But the most likely people to move out of the US is those who can stand republicans and I tend to like them.
"You" have a right to try and elude the surveillance
Or just destroy it - by exposing said policemen on a giant billboard and by destroying any and all tags with an emp (you dont think that is possible? The Chaos Computer Club made one out of a disposable camera).
If the goverment wants to play dirty, we can play dirty too.
I am not so sure about that - I to study in a danish university (AAU) and the boilerplate frontpage read something about it being free acssible but could only be published with the permission of the authors.
No, No, No copyright is per default - you have to specifically enter it into the public domain to avoid having it under copyright (or wait forever minus a day). Same goes for the papers. If you register it with the copyright office, you may have it easier to prove you wrote it first.
Af far as I can figure out yes (at least if you are not inside america). But anyway you should use encryption. If you wonder why read up on what deep throat did before having secret meetings in garages.
To make someone guilty of a crime mearly because they are near (or even best friends with) the worlds greatest crimminal is wrong. So is spamhause policy. If I am not sending spam (and I am not) I should not end up on such a list. I have an isp (a very local one) i am their customer. I dont care about who their other customers are. If spamhaus blocks me because of the other clients then I would hate spamhaus, not the ISP. If the firm sends out spam I support spamhaus but otherwise an inocent company has been hurt, and spamhaus should be forced out of buisness.
And jet all that hardware is useless - you are losing two wars in the middle east (Afghanistan and Iraq) contemplating starting a Third (Iran), while you are spending a fortune on imported goods because the Chineese can make it so much cheaper. No I am not impressed, and if you continue this way the United States (at least its status as a superpower) will be history very, very soon.
a few of them even cited for contempt of Congress Anyone who is cited or charged for voiceing his or her belives in a nonviolent fashion is a bigger patriot than all those who drive around with a "Support our troops" sticker irregardles of the belives. You may count yourself lucky, that you have such friends.
As for being afraid I agree with you - though much younger, I thank god that I do not live in America.
That is one of the reasons I no longer care what the public wants. Because the media frames the public mind to decide it wants something (less rights) and anyone who critize is called a pussie. Since I have better things to do I dont discuss with such people, and I hate the fact that politicians listen to them.
No, I Denmark we have the first result from some polling places just 30 minutes after they close. True these are the smaller ones - so get more polling places say every 200 meters in citys and have more people do the counting. For one or two million votes it usually takes from 8 til 11 or 12 before they are all counted. It should not take more in the USA (more voters, but also more people to count)
Did you know Abe Lincoln had reporters that weren't "on his side" thrown in jail?
And that is one of the reasons why I dont consider him a anything other than a criminal.
Do you know how throughly people were monitored during WW2? Let along during other parts of the 50's through 70's? Let me guess - telephones, telegraph and mail (out/into the country)? Extra monitoring for people of importance?
The difference is, that today people use email to communicate with each other many times a day - unless you where suspected a spy (or worked at Bletchly) you would not be watched 24/7 even during WWII. An individual could easily be today.
The problems with the textbooks is that you need to buy new editions constantly - not because they are better but because they change the order of the homework assignments. Same with the Texas calculators that you have to use in Highschool math (in Denmark anyway). Every two years new features are added to then and math teachers buy require the use of the new version - even if these features where not needed.
I dont mind paying for good books, but I mind paying for a scam.
The problem with both emusic.com and Magnatune is that they have none mainstream music - that is fine for some (hey Magnatune is about the only place you can hear Russian monks) but its a problem if I want to buy say "Video killed the radio star". allofmp3 maybe the only place you can buy DRM free mainstream music. It happens too be cheap but I am willing to buy a buck a song if I can get them DRM free.
So what? He will not think his actions was wrong. He will think his punishment was wrong.
What you need to do is to make him identify with the people he has harmed (or in this case the coporation) - and let his natural empaty prevent him from doing future wrong.
I can understand that sentiment - but will that not just make him hate everyone even more? Would it not be better to make him realise the damage he has done to the people, so he knows he harms real live people (and therefore would properly be less likely to do this again?)
So - ban all ports execpt 80 and 21 (to your isp only) + DNS. When a game does not work unban the needed port, but ban it again when you are done playing it.
I could not agree with you more - If your cannot trust your child to drive carefully, you have failed as a parent and you have bigger issues than this. All the electric gismoes in the world would not help you if you cannot trust you child, because if you cannot trust him/her how should the rest of society be able too?
At a certain point you just have to say - okay i have no reason to assume my kid is not responsible enough to have X, so that is not a reason why he should not have it. As you raise your kid, X grows bigger and bigger - someday it will be his/her own life (and that is one of the few things you cannot prevent).
The reason we give teens good skills is the same reason RIAA cannot make a decent DRM system - It takes one person to break it and then everyone can show it to their friends.
Second of all - slashdotters are geeks and we hate things that prevent us from doing what we want.
I happend to like finding ways to prevent things like this from working. Hmm maybe I could be popular if I publish a simple guide to disabeling systems like this.
In Denmark some politicians have installed an anti childporn filter. So the first thing that was discussed (on any techni board worth its salt) was how to get around it - not because we want to look at nude children but because there is something about beating The Man.
Now - yes if they cheat now they will have no excuse to pay for other software. In a war situation (not a war like Iraq, but one where there is some real threat to the country) they will not think twice about doing it.
Yes it is - just download the OpenSSL source code and use the already developed source. Takes no time and we all know how good the OpenBSD is with regards to security.

Hell in our house, we have cordless phones so I can call the living room or my brother. His room is next door.

Could she then not simply claim that all the songs constituted a compilation - so she is liable for $750 to $30000
The kid will hate you for it.

Thank you slashdot - if i did not read that i would not have known all the bad guys out there.
Lets face it, the moment a computer gets compromised, it is no longer your computer. It belongs to whoever compromised it.
Which is why you need a firewall to prevent you from getting infected in the first place.
So - ban all ports execpt 80 and 21 (to your isp only) + DNS. When a game does not work unban the needed port, but ban it again when you are done playing it.

Anyway my hat is off for you.
