The Can Spam Debate Continues... As Does
The Spam
12/16/2003 04:13 PMEarlier today we reported how the US has now
legal
ized spam, and now the debate continues. Ray Everett-Church has
an opinion piece explaining that the
law
is called "Can Spam" because it teaches spammers how they can
spam. He points out that it's basically an outline of all the
loopholes that will make it possible for our in-boxes to become even
more crowded with junk than usual. Meanwhile, the sponsors of the
bill have
fired
back against all the critics, saying that it's a good first step.
They pretty much ignore the point about legalized spam from direct
marketers, insisting (against popular perception) that spam is only
spam if it's somehow fraudulent. They also leave themselves a nice
loophole if it doesn't turn out to work - saying that it will only
work "with proper enforcement." So, now, when we end up with more
spam than ever, they'll just say the government needs more money to go
after spammers. How about the spammers themselves? Well, they're not
saying much, but they
are
still spamming. It turns out that last month they took a break
from all that porn spam to focus on "health care" spam (at least,
that's what they call bogus diet pills, bogus Viagra and bogus...
enhancement pills).

12/06/2003 01:40 AMLet's have a ban on the phrase "Linux on the desktop" and replace it
with "Linux on the corporate desktop" and "Linux on the home desktop".
Once we've done this we can firmly say that Linux is ready for the
corporate desktop and Linux is not ready for the home desktop without
contradiction. It also helps us know what to pay attention to and what
to ignore; e.g.
UserLinux has
admitted that it will be focusing on the corporate desktop and thus
home users shouldn't expect to get any benefit from it.

On the GUI Selection in UserLinux
12/15/2003 08:04 PMIn the original UserLinux white paper, I made it clear that the
project would play favorites among the software choices available to
it, and that the resulting process would be painful. You can't say
that you weren't warned. But it turns out not to be particularly
painful, except for one issue: the selection of the GUI used in the
system. The selection of GNOME as the GUI of the UserLinux project has
raised a good deal of opposition from KDE supporters.

12/10/2003 09:04 PMBruce Perens updated the
UserLinux manifesto;
now it's even worse than it appears. "It is not an attempt to produce
a 'Linux for Grandma', but is usable by the millions of people with
the technical skill to run GNU/Linux systems at home, many of whom
do so to facilitate their business or employment. Of course we'll
take advantage of improvements in user friendliness as they are
developed, however it's not our intent to lead their development."
As far as I can tell, they're not planning to develop anything.

E-Data Continues To Sue Just About
Anyone They Can
08/04/2004 08:38 PME-Data, emboldened by their
success
against Microsoft and not waiting around to see how their
case
against Corbis and Getty Images goes is now
suing a
bunch of other online companies including Amazon.com, the NY
Times, American Greetings and Hallmark. E-Data, of course, claims all
of these companies are violating its patent on downloading media.
Even worse, the patent actually expired last year, but E-Data is suing
them for violations while the patent was still valid. This is a
perfect example of just how stupid patents work. The point of getting
a patent is to encourage the inventor to come up with the idea in the
first place and then to publish the idea so others can make use of it
-- while licensing it from the inventor. Patent violations should be
for companies that actually do "violate" the patent -- and take what
they learned from the patent and make use of that "non-obvious" idea
without compensating the inventor. Does anyone really think that
Amazon decided to get into the business of offering downloadable media
after first reading this patent? Meanwhile, E-Data has done nothing
themselves to further innovation with this patent other than to make
plenty of other companies waste money. How does this encourage
innovation in any way? The patent system is broken.

HD DVD vs. Blu-Ray, The Saga Continues
HD DVD vs. Blu-Ray, The Saga Continues
09/01/2004 01:19 PM
LIAM "THE INTERN" MCNULTY --
As the DVD format gets older more and more people are talking
about what is going to take its place. I personally don't think DVD as
a media will be getting "old" anytime soon - but since when did my
opinion matter? [Excellent point. -ed.]
Most people involved in the argument feel that one of two
next-generation optical media types will replace DVD - either HD DVD
(for "High Definition DVD," or Blu-Ray (which somehow ends up being a
"BD-ROM"). Since Sony (among others) has already quietly released
Blu-Ray devices to the public, and announced that the Playstation 3
will utilize Blu-Ray, we can easily see that Sony is pioneering the
format, and likely the one with the most proverbial ass on the line. I
could go into the specifications of each format more, but that's what
Google is for, slack.
All this is to say, when you hear an announcement about Blu-Ray,
don't expect an announcement about HD DVD to be far behind. In fact,
today saw both announcements.

Installing Kazaa wasn't the only insane thing I did,
I also enabled Windows
Update, allowing it to install updates from Microsoft every night
at 3AM. This was not a good idea for at least one reason -- it reboots
my machine every time there's an update. I'd rather decide when my
machine is rebooted.
Now I'm trying to figure out how to turn it off. There used to
be a Windows Update icon in the tray, but now it's gone. I guess once
they have you hooked there's no need to configure it? I've pored over
the site, to no avail. If you know how to turn it off, please let me
know. Thanks!

Slate and
Salon. One has deep pockets, and the
other has, well, a knack for finding last-minute funding, and both
seems to have survived the dot com crash.
Or have they?
Well, reports are out that Microsoft is looking to
sell
Slate. Looks like the recent cost-cutting measures at Microsoft
has now trickled down to this particular product. I wish all the best
to the people behind Slate, and hope that the online magazine will not
suck after being bought over.

02/10/2004 02:51 AMJim Moore blogs about the lessons that DeanforAmerica has learned
and how it continues to evolve. He gives the example of MoveOn.org
which started as a movement to "move on" from the Clinton impeachment,
then broadened its mission to counter the selling of the Iraq war, and
now is purchasing ads to get Americans to think. Obviously, Jim and
everyone at DFA is still hoping for a Howard Dean victory, but Jim
also muses about the idea of DFA continuing to gain momentum and
power.
Jim Moore
DFA's role in
American politics
DeanforAmerica will have powerful mission in American
politics. DFA will work out new and effective mechanisms for
citizen invovlement.
[...]
But win or lose in any particular struggle, we have power. This is the
deepest lesson of MoveOn--win or lose in the Clinton impeachment,
MoveOn had and has power.
