"Internet service provider" can also be extended to cover torrent sites and trackers because they provide an internet service. Then they can be liable for damages. Enjoy http://www.descargasweb.net/ while you still can!! Be carefull though to give a fake ID because the logs can be use against you..
Moreover if it is only civil offence the ISPs are not oblidged to release your personal details from your IP address unless they get a court order. Thats why they make the ISPs also responsible. My guess is that the..AA guys will spy upon the fileshareres, and the ISP will get a letter saying this guy 80.255.255.255 has been downloading and distributing so so music and films, then the ISP cutting off the Internet (temporarily or permenantly) to the guy for violating terms of service..
Simply means that you can use the technology for whatever use you like, but if you are caught downloading unauthorized copyrighted material, by any means (client-server or p2p) you dont go to jail, but you pay money for the damage you have done to the people authorized to sell that material. Seems fair to me..
You forgot to mention that WGA validation is required to download mbsa.msi. you can google it, but the latest version (2) ends up somewhere in China, not at download.microsoft.com
Plain English: Ijust want to watch a movie on the tv and being able to browse at the same time. I can do that in windows. So, here it is:xorg ATI driver does not support tv-out so i have to use fglrx. Fglrx FREEZES (like BSOD) when you open up an opengl app (screensaver, torcs, glxgears). So I use fglrx with mesa fallback. Video on tv-out still not working properly, so I disable video acceleration also. My wife complains that linux is total crap! I boot to xp, she watches a movie, and I write this post.. The difficulty in the post is caused from the sheer amount of linux bugs and deficiencies and not so much from my command of the Engligh language. Thanks for reading through though..
its not ubuntu specific. I tried suse 10.1, even kororaa, and openGL apps freeze computer.. (9600agp on intel945). ati says sth about disabling lock user pages if glxgears freezes, but on agp systems its already disabled. So I have to disable DRI altogether. Another bug is over- or underscanning in dual screen mode. Only half of video plays on the second display (tv). So I have to disable Xv overlay also, which makes video performance shaggy. Xinerama on Kubuntu -both 5.10 and 6.06 also sucks bigtime. It can't find where one sreen ends and when the other starts. May be it involves some command-line wizardry which I am not aware of.It works ok though on SuSE 10.1. Another issue is my CMI8738 sound card which is 7.1 on windows but only a mere double stereo on linux. You know, there is a time limit (weeks) one can devote to configure a linux computer just so his wife can watch movies on the tv while he browses on the monitor!! Esp, if he could have done that as early as 2002 on his XP!!
Ati has some serious bugs with their linux drivers, at least for my hardware configuration (9600 (agp8x) on Intel 845 (agp4x)). DRI freezes X. have to reset. I know this cause i've tried suse 10.1, kororaa, kubuntu5.10 and ditto 6.06, with all available configurations. OSS driver doesnt freeze, but no DRI, no tv. Ive installed kubuntu with fglrx, xinerama overscans monitor and i cant see. no way to change resolution. In suse 10.1, xinerama works just fine. A similar bug in xinerama existed also in kubuntu5.10(there was no way to move to second display). So, what would take to a man to watch movies in his tv? buy a new computer? switch to windows? switch to suse?

now, lets see.. are they going to fix anytime soon tv-out in open source "ati" driver? the proprietary one supports it, though it often crashes esp. with opengl apps. Also with the latest drivers from ati, there is no extended desktop on the tv. I think that playing a movie fullscreen on the tv and doing sth, else on the desktop would be pretty standard by 2006, whilst its available on windoze from 2001!
From the wiki you posted: The informal nature of the constitution has been conducive to a lack of the concept of "constitution government" or "constitutionalism" in the United Kingdom. The "government" (i.e. the executive) is drawn from the legislature, Parliament, since the UK has a Parliamentary system of government. The doctrine of "limited government", central in all written constitutions, is not prominent in the UK constitution, nor is separation of powers or formal "checks and balances". Since the government is said to be "fused" with Parliament, and virtually every government has a majority, governments have no formal restraint on their legislative power. This is only broken if government Members of Parliament vote against a government bill, which due to a strong whip system had, until 2005, not occurred since 1986. The phrase elective dictatorship was introduced in 1976 to highlight the enormous potential power of government afforded by the constitution.
If the US had an issue with the guy, they should have sued him and he sould have been tried under British law, with the US state or the US military being the complainant. There are countries (eg. Germany) that their constitutions prohibit the extradiction of their nationals to foreign countries. In Britain there is no constitution, so the Government can do whatever they want with their nationals. The US is more protective of their people abroad. Do you know that the US exempted their nationals from the International Court Of Hague?
I follow Ubuntu with the latest kernel updates and I tell you with every update performance increases...When I booted Windows I used to feel the difference, but not anymore. I think the quality of the kernel is fine. There other people that need to improve in quality, e.g. the rest of the free apps, esp packagers who have to make the thing to just work.. What will I do with stability if nothing works? Am I going to just look at the computer while its all stable doing nothing?
thanks man!! i was only trying to watch tv, as tv-out is not supported by my Radeon7500 under linux. In explore2fs there are 2 setings, "view" and "export". If you use "view", the linux files are exported to \admin\local setings\temp which is not safe...if you use "export" you can export them to \Documents and settings\LUA user\my Documents\ and pressumably if you open the linux files as LUA, permissions would be maintained. This solution, although it seems perfect is too elaborate for me. May be when I learn more..
I have LVM2 in my linux partition and up to now only explore2fs supports that, but with xp only running as admin which is very dangerous. Any win32 malware picked up by browsing under linux is going to be executed as root so I''ll be PWNED!!
Jokes aside, this is mostly true. I think this is an atempt to squeeze a little money out, like the genuine advantage, which is client verification only and can be faked. If they wanted to kill piracy they would very easily do it, but this would mean market share drop. People would try then OSX or Linux, and when market share falls for home users, it would fell for professional and corporate users also. So we wait and see, but my prediction is that those who really want to, would enjoy all microsoft goodies in th years to come.
Here in Greece we have the tax authorities database (www.taxisnet.gr) running Oracle on RHEL, and that makes us another 8 mill. customers. So I guess proffesionals know about their business and install what's best for them. What about the consumer though. Can he make the switch?
Unfortunately this would be true if things just worked in Linux world. You have to know where roots home is so you can land debs or rpms or fix dependencies. you have to know where firefox or java (which?) or azureus is because they don't work with each other out of the box. (In fact if you ask somebody outside of the free software world they would say that the greatest disadvantage of Linux apps is that they are not interoperable. Most of Linux users are either computer professionals or computer hobbyists, so they don't mind fixing things. But for those that are not willing to spend an entire day to figure out why e.g. foreign keyboards are not working on KDE 3.5.1 (kubuntu default), Linspire is a good solution. They pay their subscription and software can be installed in a click. And they don't care less if firefox is under/opt or under/usr/lib
I have come to a conclusion that every new release of software is distinctly worse than the other. Why? It's because the fat lady can't sing.

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
kubuntu-desktop: Depends: adept but it is not going to be installed

Stick it in front of your monitor everytime you want to surf for porn
Also lacks a way to change port numbers, NAT forwarding, DHT.

How about S/PDIF output? would that work? (to another computer or digital recording device)..
If the authorities approve of such a plan I guess we can trust them with our money, cant'we..
