There's also sites such as www.purevolume.com that have free tracks by many artists, and they are quite decent. Not sure if it covers all of the musical spectrum though.
Naturally, most people will switch to these new RSS feeds ('because it's Microsoft' will be their excuse), and we'll say goodbye to another open medium for simple syndication.
Anyone got any ideas for another open simple syndication standard?
Pity it's 18 year-olds and over though (although I guess it's do with contract law).
<p>I would have gone in for it, and there was plenty of projects there I would have like to have done. But then I would be 'stealing' someone else's project that they will get paid for I suppose.</p>
How about parallel universes? You'd kill your own grandfather, and you wouldn't exist in that parallel universe. But there would be plenty of others that you would exist in. Makes sense to me:)
Although the theory where you can't kill your own grandfather because fate stops you (i.e. the gun stops working) because it already 'happened' is also believable.
When Blair (or insert future Labour leader here) is in times of trouble, and it looks like he'll lose the election, he can just use the identity card scheme to eliminate his opponents. It's proven that a leader who stays in for a great number of years goes completely whacko (Mugabe and any other central Asian state are examples). Then we can can finally make Britian a one party state, and the Labour Party will be called 'The Party'
Why does the government need these identity cards anyway? If they're invoking the terrorism issue (fear!), then they are the social group that are most likely to be in the country for less than the time required to get an ID card, and they will have access to loads of fake ID cards. The ID card system won't work!
True, how do we know that every scrap of information that the government of the USA has is being digitised? Good question, but I don't think it's possible to prove that. There's always room for conspiracy theorists here.
That's a damn shame. Variation is always good in the computing industry, but in my opinion, the next decade will see Cell and x86 fighting it out. ARM (and related) will be going for a long time though, I don't see Intel or AMD going into the embedded market. But then again, I don't know much about the embedded market:)
I agree, that statement seems like an oxymoron. Surely a more scientific team would not spend millions of pounds on a mission to Mars to prove Americans greatness when it could be spending it on asteriod research and solar sails.
But why is President Bush talking about a mission to Mars by 2020? Surely he'll be out of power by then?
We've had interactive whiteboards for several years in our school (in England), and it's not desperately new technology, although a special pen/stylus has to be used where we come from.
I think it's fully justifiable spending that kind of money on new whiteboards because there's a wealth of information out of the Internet, and you would spend an unimaginable amount of money buying textbooks containing just some of the information. Of course, whiteboards aren't a replacement for the teacher, but I'm betting some think it is.
The thing I don't get with Tor is why someone would need that much encryption, unless they were transferring something illegal like copyrighted material.
Why is an anonymous network like Tor needed?

Surely you would use the LGPL (although not particularly liked by Stallman) for that purpose?

I know now what you guys mean by the amount of sexual innuendos in that article :)

Although we do have an artist over here called '50 Pence' (with his most famous song - 'In Da Pub'). Talk about price fixing!
Linux virus scanner is like the definition of oxymoron :)
dead horses beat YOU!
Sorry, had to be said :)
Next they'll have wireless cards that can connnect to other wireless cards! They might even call it Ad-Hoc as well. Man, Intel is dead inventive!
Wait, was the above post sarcastic?Or inverted...
Now I can get directions to New York and kick some invasionist/imperialist ass.
Works both ways you see :)

Surely there's some advantage to public cinemas, otherwise they would have gone out of business long ago. For example:
Theater: Film comes out here long before it's available at the Home Theater.
Home Theater: Film comes out several months late.
Although I guess that's 'fixable', but it will continue that way because it allows for the maximum profit to be made by movie studios.
Mr Theo De Raddt of course has no connections to another Unixy OS, and delivers a fair and unopinionated judgement.
Not. :)
Conspiracy! They must have some hidden agenda to be promoting this product! IBM is taking over!
and it also turns out that Slashdotters like to nit-pick every single joke :)

You've got to ask the question, why are these kids accessing pr0n in the first place? How about tackling the cause rather than the effect?
Or as the PS2 guy put it when advertising the new hard-drives, "Linux is legacy!" ;)
