Computrace (R)
Disable - Deactivate - Activate

This field lets you Activate or Disable the BIOS module interface of the optional Computrace (R) Service from Absolute(R) Software. The Computrace agent from Absolute Software is a service solution designed to help track assets and provide recovery services in the event the notebook is lost of stolen. The Computrace agent communicates with the Absolute Software Monitoring Server at programmed intervals to provide the tracking service. By activating the service, you consent to the transmission of information from and to your computer and the Absolute Software Monitoring Server. The Computrace service is purchased as a separate option and the monitoring Server will enable its agent security module through an interface provided by the BIOS. The Computrace tracking agent can only be used in the US, UK, Canada and Australia. Computrace(R) and Absolute(R) are registered trademarks of Absolute Software Corporation.

Disable = Permanently block the Computrace module interface.
Deactivate = Block the Computrace module interface (Default).
Activate = Permit the Computrace module interface.

The Absolute Anti-Theft solution is Disabled. You cannot change the setting.

There is a guy named Trevor Paglen who takes photos of secure military installations like Area 51 (seriously!) with telephoto lenses. He is legally justified and never been charged because he stands on public property to take the photos. If it is secure enough for Area 51 it should be secure enough for ATMs. The ATM photographer was on public property, acting within his rights.

Rageahol!

Funny you should choose recipes as an example, since they can't be copyrighted and are by definition, free.

An AGPL torrent tracker that is completely node based and can be run on peoples' home computers is needed. There has to be something out there that is close enough to be forked.

Taking the P2P idea to its extreme, you could cut Pirate Bay, Mininova or other public trackers out of the transaction completely. The individual person's computer could self-publish all of its currently available songs to other computers directly in the form of a searchable list it would be as easy to use but not require any choke point of legal encumbrance.

The CCSA is backwards compatible with the GFDL.

I think the source of the confusion Thomas identifies is the ambiguity between a critique of a particular Gnu/Linux distro and a critique of the Linux community.

Many people critique both the distros and the community. If you are critiquing a distro specifically enough, people won't get mad. But it has to be in the right forum. The critique has to identify something about a particular distro or application that needs fixing. Critique fanboys in a bug report and you will get flamed.

If you critique a Linux community, people will rightly take offense. Similarly, if you critique the LGBT community, people will rightly take offense. Which leads me to my second point, please don't use the term "fanbois" spelled with the "boi" to make your point. The word "Boi" originates from AOL screen names, when the term "boy" was banned from the screen name process, probably because potential racist overtones associated with it. Gay men claim "Boi" as marker of queer identity, so to glom it together with your loathing of fanboys is disrespectful to both groups -- of which I am a member of one.

TFA be damned!

Not all music, just the music that requires money to get it. Too bad artists. This fight has gone way beyond "supporting the artist." We are propping up a failed institution. Artists, you weren't going to get that hit album anyway, just keep driving the cab -- I know that's what I will be doing to pay the bills.

Music is not food, shelter or clothing. You can live without it. Don't buy any music affiliated with the RIAA and they will cease to exist/be assholes. I am going to start a band that makes songs that are almost the same as hit popular songs and give them away online as mp3 and ogg torrents. I kick ass at music production, so the copies will be good. I will study the law just enough to make copies that fall just outside any laws that say you can't copy a song. Change a note here, some lyrics there. Catch me if you can! All the kids will be dancing to my songs in the clubs and on the subway. In fact, that's a good hook. I will use that...
