DVD's and CD's are a public nuisance, like a swimming pool without a fence around it. Get rid of both.
Embed a serial number in the DVD in random places. Make it hard to pirate. Prosecute individuals who do, not sites.
This is like prohibition. It didn't work. Don't allow new taxes, new limitations, new throttling under any disguise and this is a disguise.
Two things I want to see,
1) a paypal donate site for retired actors/writers. When I pirate, I will donate to that!
2) a site exactly like TPB that allows tipping. Who gets the money, I don't give a hoot, but it will clear my conscience.
I just realized how important pictures are to a story.
Look at your response to this. Assumptive, possibly accurate, but probably not.
But what if you could see some pictures of the scene, you might change your mind.
I taught one year. Teachers are good people. Go outside and play!
I use a Speederaser-I that helps me use my cruise control more often, even off-highway.
If I turn the cruise off, it goes away.
Cheap and handy.

cant the kid just click on Network, navigate to IPproperties, DNS, then
just take out your openDNS DNS and instead use default?
Once they see that procedure, won't they be able to duplicate it? Heck, its probably on youtube.
My problem is "what happens during a block". If they see BLOCK, they THWART, heck I do...
Related: I ride Megabus and I use my own bellsouth-DNS instead of their openDNS.
Works sometimes, but not always. Perhaps they are getting wiser??
I think it is a wonderful product. It removes parts for any system which currently uses SD which is ba-jillions. Its the trifecta of savings, space, cost, power.
I do hope they make it bi-directional.
We are just waiting for the price to come down a bit.
Its going to enable datalogging everywhere.

yes. Pretty much everywhere.
A decade ago, the state of California enacted the Swimming Pool Safety Act, which required any new swimming pools to have at least one approved safety barrier, such as a fence, a cover or an alarm on any door leading directly to the pool. It was amended in 2006 to allow pool alarms and removable mesh fencing as safety barrier options, and suction outlets were required to have anti-entrapment covers. It affected all swimming pools and spas that needed permits to be built or remodeled after Jan. 1, 2007.
Q: would you agree that to get that "spread around" data, you must go to TPB and CLICK on download?
That CLICK moment should cost.
I would gladly pay $1 at that CLICK moment.
Who it goes to, I dont care. Charity, TPB, Hollywood.
It would clear my conscience.
It does have value and Hollywood is missing capitalizing that value.
Some entrepreneur should get paid for that value, charity, TPB, Hollywood.
But like I said before, DVD's should have manditory FENCES like swimming pools.
Without that safeguard, screw hollywood for creating a public nuisance!
Filesharing hurts the middle men only period.
Blockbuster, Netflix, Redbox.
Filesharing is like a swimming pool in your backyard.
Even though its yours, law requires a fence around it.
DVDs are a public nuisance, too easy to share, like a non-fenced pool.
The law should FORCE a fence on DVD's. Make them encrypt or something.
He's just trying to earn his keep.
He knows its stupid, but constituents are whispering in his ear to "do something".
I say, put some mirrors on your house that track/reflect the flyover byrds!
It just signals the end of DVD's.
Seriously folks, Gameboy games dont have this problem.
Hey Hollywood. Get rid of DVD's. Just use proprietary hardware for movies, its fair. Some will thwart it with piracy, but lets face it when movies cost $1.00 at Redbox, stealing them is not grand larceny any longer...
thanks for that. We all need a backup plan as the roaches encroach.
Funny story. Other day I pirated a movie called cashback. I liked it so much I wanted my wife to see it. She won't look at pirated stuff so I paid amazon 2.99 to download it. On the Amazon copy the volume was so low we couldn't hear it, so we went back and watched the pirated version which had loud volume! She said ok, since we paid...
Dump some tea.
This is prohibition again.
If I had that ISP, I would cancel today and get a WISP anyway I could.
I would also setup neighborhood nets for filesharing.
'Anyone know how to make a neighborhood net?, something that can't exist past 10 miles from my house?
Powering 0.1% of homes ain't much of a dent, not counting factories...
5k/5M= 0.1%
= 300M people in US / 2 half own homes / 5 per household= 30M Estimate # of houses.
Slashdot Mirror
I have a simple solution.
"Give me an innovation window".
Let me put in a clever quiz that I control.
e.g.
"what is Blues favorite color?"
But at least I can finally get
clownpenis.fart
I love Apple. Does that help?
ok, 1995. But still, These "replace thyself" systems have been around since the Gemini program!
This is a good peer review of the patent.
I just read it, and it looks like stuff engineers have been doing way before 1998 (granted date).
I would imagine one or more slashdot readers will/could file prior-art to this via an old log book.
Thanks slashdot...
Warner brothers just bought TPB for 13billion.
No kidding, go look! -cellurl
Just put a CHAS system in it. Cabin Heat Abatement System.

ok, I deserve that.
But remember, if it looks fishy it probably is.
Case in point.

I bet the Ibuprofin aspect was a lie added for news worthy-ness! Thats your rat, news-hounds!
Seriously, do you think anyone strip searches someone over ibuprofin?
If we had a picture of the situation, it would clear it up in my mind.... Nuf said. Break a pencil!

Follow the money.
In mississippi, they have gambling, big time at Tunica.
No one wants to be watched on there way to gamble.
I think this is gambling-pull rather than constituents-push.
I am glad they are removing the cameras, but I bet the casinos are behind it.
be careful what you wish for. It may become true...
Traffic-camera morphed into traffic-VIDEO-camera, ugh.

I always figured eventually someone would say,
your camera should have prevented my rape, so I am
holding you liable for my rape/crime/etc.
Hats off to Cambridge!
