You're a cretin. Stop publicly comment on things you obviously have no grasp of.
"the German state of Hamburg"
Actually Hamburg is a so-called "free city" inside Germany (i.e., is not part of any state / land) due to its history as a free city since 1189. While technically it is a self-governing entity at the level of state, its name and real status is that of a "free and Hanseatic city".
one of the reasons why MySpace had problems was because they went with C# in the first place
Actually MySpace was first programmed in ColdFusion.
Funny, in my eyes the "Orwellian behaviour" comes from the unions, which in Germany have representatives in the board of directors, free real-estate inside the company premises, and the power of the government behind their neverending march on terrorizing their own employer.
ICANN does not assign domain names but TLDs. The
Moreover, paying for that google.kz doesn't mean it is owned by Google, only merely assigned. I am quite sure the national registrar retains full rights over the domain itself (just like the government still owns the passport, while you and me are only passport "holders").
Basically the Kazakhstan government can do whatever they want about
I'm all for eco-everything, nature protection, responsible development. But the idea of the national (or, in the case of the EU, supra-national) government brutally interfering in the affairs of local administration is just horrible. Totalitarian to the bone.
You are confusing market forces with capitalism. Even tho they are usually going hand in hand, they do not equate each other.
The downfall of the Athenian Empire
What are you talking about?
really need to learn a little about the guy. The Vanity Fair story itself says that for years he had only two outfits. He sleeps on people's couches, for heaven's sake.
The Brussels hotel mentioned in the Vanity Fair article has 4/four stars with a price of roughly $250/night for a single - hardly a pauper's choice.

To fork "the internet" and create a so-called "citizen's internet" is one of the most cretin idea ever brainfarted. The fact it got so much public support on left-dominated forums such as Slashdot is just further proof of that
As usual, nothing bigger than a local network for an apartment complex or a few houses can really be done by *citizens* themselves. They will need an agent - which can only be either a municipality or a corporation.
If it's a corporation we're back to square one.
If it's a municipality we're talking about using public funds to compete on what's supposed to be free market (regulated, but still free). I know many lefties are actually pushing for that, but the question is where exactly will such enterprise lead? To me the answer is clear.
That's overly compressed video. Completely unusable from a professional perspective.
What the pro needs (and also the semi-pro) is ability to record uncompressed HD (or "visually lossless" HD using codecs such as Cineon).
Huge difference in throughput
Thank God you didn't forget to post the above message as an "Anonymous Coward"!
I shiver to think what your punishment would be from the "secrative" cabal that goes back far before Babylon.
Tinfoil much?
You're so full of pretentious shit...
"The concept"? There is no concept, sweetheart. Time to stop pretending, okay?
"urban environment"? the fact that you can't spell "city" only increases my belief that you're a pretentious moron, one of which his / her own family feels embarrassed.
"to see what happens" is that artsy for you? How about we spit on some wall "to see what happens"? Or we place a banana peel on the sidewalk "to see what happens"? Got my point? Ouh, almost forgot how stupid you are: "to see what happens" has zero conenction with art or in general with meaning.
"creating a parallel (and sllightly subversive) infrastructure"? Honey, you can't create anything at all, stop dreaming. Pretentious idiots can't even understand what "subversive" means, too.
"in new and original ways"? LOL
"as we say in Art"? Frankly most of the times I think people like you are just caricatures, made-up ideas with no real counterpart in real life. Wow!
