  1. Re:Google on World Intellectual Property Day · · Score: 1

    A little-known fact outside of the Google family is that they wanted to change the logo to a flaming red asshole in honor of World Intellectual Property Day, but Lucent has already trademarked one.

  2. Dammit! on World Intellectual Property Day · · Score: 1

    Only 2.25 hours left for World Intellectual Property Day in my timezone, and I have 90 minutes left on this Sin City download...and the server's busy! Why, God, Why?!

  3. Subject on Adobe Blasts Nikon's Closed File Format · · Score: 5, Funny

    "Fearing the DMCA, Adobe won't reverse-engineer the file"

    The poetic justice is lovely this evening.

    Expect congress to push the date back or be swamped with rednecks bitching about their TV.

    In other words, you can't produce one. Thanks for playing.

    Last time I checked, even "public" universities were funded by student fees. Unless you can produce something that says this was part of a research grant...?

    You could use your +2 account almost exclusively for trolling, like I've done for the past 2 years.

    "What works? Redmond's photocopiers?"

    They *were*, but they've been blue-screened for the past 20 minutes. MCSE should be by soon.

    "And they were probably paid with tax-payer dollars!"

    I know it's a lot to ask, but do you think you could RTFA?

    No, and the moderators who modded that up are a bunch of slack-jawed fucking retards for not checking the link first. Subscriptions to Science run about $100 a year (less if you're a student), and there are no BugMeNot logins that will work.

    And once again, you missed the point. Congratulations!

  15. Re:defining theft on Congress Declares War on File Leakers · · Score: 1

    Nice try, but you were the one who wanted to *define* theft. I gave you the definition. If you want to start backpeddling at this late point, I suggest using the word "stealing" instead.

  16. Re:defining theft on Congress Declares War on File Leakers · · Score: 1
    Disagree all you want. Facts and definitions make me right; the patronizing is just icing on the cake.

    Pay close attention to the numerous instances of "intent to deprive" in this definition, and note that it quite specifically refers to the property itself, not perceived income from that property. You're welcome.

  17. Re:defining theft on Congress Declares War on File Leakers · · Score: 1

    "Why then is it somehow OK because it's done electronically?"

    It's not OK. But it's not theft, either. Keep trying.

    I grabbed the leaked mp3s before they aired.

    Hilariously, I didn't get around to listening to them until after they had aired.

    "It can be hard to search google without a working network card."

    That was one solution. dmesg and egrep is another. Auto-loading modules are yet another. It's still not rocket science.

    As a matter of fact, I have. Searching google for chipset $CARDNAME has never steered me wrong. It's still not rocket science.

  23. Re:Thanks, CA on Kernel Changes Draw Concern · · Score: 3, Insightful

    "The real problem is too many options, and not enough testing of the combinations. That is what CA is complaining about."

    Is it? Because in the article Greenblatt snivels about "too many game drivers!@" and then breaks down completely and starts complaining that Xen "doesn't do enough." I'm not sure which side of the fence he's on. I do know that if I don't have an ATI Radeon in my system I'm not going to be totally baffled by the vast array of ATI driver options. But I don't work for CA.

    "We are not interested in the game drivers and music drivers that are being added to the kernel."

    Then disable them, spoogelips. Don't let them compile in.

    Is this rocket science?
