iTunes has quite impressive catalog. I listen to a lots of kpop and they are all there. What I would like to have is TV show rentals.

I've recently started using iTunes for music and movie rentals and it works flawlessly. So there's no justification of "no good legal alternatives" anymore, as both Spotify and iTunes are actually easier and nicer to use than pirate sites. The same goes for Steam.

Why you proposed your wife via Slashdot?

Read all about how governments use brain pattern matching abusively.

Not really. Everyone has a certain self-interest in things that, well, interest them. That Mueller was acting as consultant for Oracle should not come as a big surprise - he's good with tech and therefore has certain opinions too.

I don't really understand why Slashdot has got the hate towards him.

Microsoft has mostly used their patents defensively so I don't think they've included in this, nor Apple. Google, on the other hand, will be on hot waters especially with the recent purchase of Motorola Mobility.

Heh, that happens every time with OS X's spellchecker. Wonder why it doesn't know the word transgenders.

However, you must also understand that some (most? I'm not that clear on the subject) don't believe to be women. They don't believe to be men either. They believe they're 'third' gender.

And they should have the right to be.

They even got their ad campaign freely detailed on Slashdot and by all those different critics. Can't be more successful than that.

So why doesn't Linux Foundation do the same for Microsoft and Windows? Or doesn't Linux use any advanced technology?

Homebrew isn't over, it's just been replaced by indie games. It's somewhat similar to shareware games from the 90's and early 2000's.
