Computer industry to entertainment
industry: we lied (right on!)

Computer industry to entertainment
industry: we lied (right on!) 09/22/2004 02:18 AM
Cory Doctorow: This amazing open letter to the entertainment industry, signed by the computer industry, is a nigh-perfect expression of what constitutes a successful approach to Internet technology. And it made me laugh my ass off.

We lied to you. In the golden 80s and 90s we told you micropayments and content protection would work; that you would be able to charge minuscule amounts of money whenever someone listened to your music or watched your movie. We told you untruths which we well knew would never work - after all, we would've never used them ourselves. Instead, we wrote things like Kazaa and Gnutella, and all other evil P2P applications to get the stuff free.

We told you these things so that you would finance the things we really wanted to build, not the things that you wanted to be built. We knew all along that DRM schemes do not work, and we knew that whatever we create can be broken by us. We don't care anymore, because your money made us bigger than you.

Look at us: every year, we churn out more computer games than your entire industry is worth. You know how we do it? We like our customers. We don't treat them like potential criminals, and try to make our products do less. We invent new things like online role-playing -games, where the money does not come from duplication of bits (which cannot be stopped, regardless of your DRM scheme) but from providing experiences that the people want.

We saw that you were old and weak. So we took advantage of it: told you things that you wanted to hear so we could kick you in the head in twenty years. Some of us told you that the future is going to be interactive - what did you do? You started to think how to make interactive movies (CD-I, anyone?), which is not what it really means, while we wrote games and tried to understand the new mediums, not how to bolt it on onto old things.

We lied to you. And we apologize for that, but it was for the greater good. So we're not the least bit sorry.

Signed: The Computer Industry

I was doing research for Lockergnome's new channel, Game Invasion, when I stumbled upon Taleban Attack. I... don't know what to say. The page was written in Italian, but according to a rough translation: "Totally in 3D, it is divided in 2 distinguished parts: from the part of the talebani and from the part of the Americans." Wow. This is a nightmare come true....

The Worst of Both Worlds

The Worst of Both Worlds 03/06/2004 02:06 AM
The DC Circuit Court of Appeals has overturned significant portions of the FCC's Triennial Review order from last year.  So, essentially, we now have FCC Chairman Powell's policies for today's networks, and Commissioner Kevin Martin's policies for tomorrow's.  This makes things even worse than before.

The best argument one could make for the majority's decision was that UNE-P would foster some competitive entry in the absence of line-sharing (which Powell wanted to keep) and open fiber networks.  The best argument for Powell's view (which I reluctantly supported) was that the broadband fight was what really mattered, so we can afford to let UNE-P die.  For now, at least, the DC Circuit has given us the worst of both worlds.

Ernie the Attorney links to the world's worst site, an attempt to aggravate, um, aggregate the most common errors made by tyro web designers. The site is bad but, jeez, I'm sure I've been to worse. No registration required, no page transitions, no frames (except for Tripod/Angelfire inserting itself as an IE search companion, apparently not as part of the joke), no popups, no pornography, no spyware (as far as I can tell), no size=1 font, no redirect of the back button. The music and animated gifs are real annoying, though....

The worst thing about vacation...

The worst thing about vacation... 03/22/2005 05:09 PM

Is of course, coming back. We just got back from a short trip down to Stone Mountain, Georgia for a family re-union centered about my grandmother's 90th birthday celebrations. It was great spending time with the small family. When we gather together for a re-union, it almost feels like a big family. The kids loved the Stone Mountain train, the cable-car up to the top, and jumping from rock to rock all the way down. I wasn't expecting much from "redneck Rushmore" but the Marriot resort there is very nice as is the rest of the park. I might actually go back there someday.

Anyhow, upon my return I find that my blog has been down all day (due to a misconfiguration on my part) and, as usual, one of my office computers is freaking out. When I leave town, I power down the computers in my office (a Sun box, a low-end Linux box, and a Windows machine. No matter what, everytime I return, one computer won't start up correctly. This time it is the Windows box. The symptom: on start-up it boots Redhat Linux and I didn't even know I had Redhat on that box. Oh well.

In other news... I was supposed to finish Blogs, Wikis, and Feeds chapters 14 and 15 this weekend (you can probably guess how that went). Back to work...
