UK Indie Labels Claim Apple's Offer
Equals Commercial Suicide 06/15/2004 11:49 AM
While Apple continues to expand their iTunes offering to Europe, many of the larger independent labels in the UK and France have decided not to participate, calling the offer Apple made them "commercial suicide." They claim that Apple is trying to bully them, using its position as the dominant downloadable music retailer to force the smaller labels into accepting a deal that gives them much less than their major label colleagues. Of course, they don't detail exactly what was offered, so it's tough to tell which side (and it certainly could be both) is really being greedy here.

Self-he lp equals self-harm? Are self-help books harmful rather than helpful?

Nor will we succeed in coping with the bitter feelings for those who have wronged us by practing the "anger therapy" of slamming a punching bag. [More Inside]

When Zero Equals Many in Windows XP

When Zero Equals Many in Windows XP 06/04/2004 09:11 AM
Wired News looks into Windows XP's dropped Wi-Fi connection problem: Daniel Terdiman tries to dig for the bodies in his search for why Windows XP drops Wi-Fi network connections inexplicably and often shows them as still active. Microsoft claims there's no systematic problem, but it's clear from reading any forum in which Wi-Fi is discussed--such as the DSLReports.com site--that this is a frequent issue. My solution, provided to me by a vendor about two years ago, of restarting Wireless Zero Configuration is explained in the article. This has solved 99 percent of my Windows XP Wi-Fi problems, but it's nestled so deeply that it's baffling. I've felt for a while that Microsoft should have a top-level interface to WZC because when it stops running, the user has no idea that anything's afoot until they drill down, down, down, and see that the setting reads "not running."...

Weak Spam Laws Plus No Enforcement
Equals Waste Of Time 04/16/2004 11:32 AM
Over in the UK, where they passed their own weak anti-spam law last year (saying it was okay to spam businesses) it turns out things are worse than they seem - as the law is only window dressing for a year or more. The authorities charged with enforcing the law are saying they don't have the necessary resources to actually enforce the law, and probably won't get around to do anything until next year. So, spammers in the UK have just been given notice to... keep on spamming.

Figure Eight Train Racing

Figure Eight Train Racing 03/26/2005 09:53 PM

I stumbled across something on SpeedTV today that has to be seen to be believed: figure-eight train racing. Not real trains — three cars lashed together to act like a train.

The first car is the only powered car. Usually something big, old, and American — mid seventies Monte Carlos seemed quite popular. The driver of this car steers and works the throttle. The car has no brakes.

Attached to the back of the first car by chains and a tow bar is the middle car, which has nothing. No engine, no brakes, no driver. Just an empty shell.

Attached to the back of that by chains is the caboose. No engine, no steering, but it has brakes and a driver. God help him.

Now, take eight of these perversions of automotive theory and put them on a figure eight track. Seriously. Then race them for 10 laps.

The race I watched ended with no hits in the crossover, which surprised me. What's amazing is watching the caboose get whipped around like a rag doll. The rear driver is supposed to be able to put some tension on the train by using the brake, but I couldn't see any difference. Any quick steering movement up front got wildly exaggerated by the time it rippled back to the rear and that guy was just along for the ride.

I wish I had a picture to show you, but a few minutes of Googling turned up nothing. Half of me thinks the whole thing was just a nightmare.
