Journal Journal: PageRank and me...

I'm kinda new to the pagerank game but i've been trying to better my ranking of my page.

I know there are a lot of factors but, being rather new, I don't know very much about it all. Have any input/suggestions?

The page(s) in question are: http://blog.sufferingfools.net/

There is nothing stopping you legally from working and distributing this project. The only licensing problems I can see is that linksys might try to sue you for distributing their binary-only driver. I have not read the license terms of that drivers, so I do not know if they allow re-distribution of it or not.

Worst case scenerio (for sourceforge), ship the sources without the binary driver. If you decide to not go with sourceforge, there is NOTHING IN THE GPL which REQUIRES you to distribute sources to linux kernel drivers that you distribute with your distribution. There are MANY linux distributions out there that distribute linux binary drivers without source. For instance, any distro which ships nvidia drivers (which is practically ALL of them). This is not a violation of the GPL, as it is legal for you to ship packages with seperate binary files provided they are not derrived from the GPL works. (which they are not.)

Anybody telling you otherwise has no idea what they are talking about. This has NOTHING to do with the GPL or copyright law, and EVERYTHING to do with GPL zealots who want free wireless drivers. I say to those people: if you want it, write it yourself or petition the copyright owner to release his sources.

Journal Journal: Shit day, what about you?

Just lost my job. Bugger.

We were expecting the news today, one by one each of the staff that where to be made redundant were called to a meeting room to be told.

As a contractor, I was expecting to lose my job, then the news comes around at 4ish, that everyone still standing is safe.

Journal Journal: So here I am... 1

So here I am, I can't metamoderate, as the Perl script seems to be missing, so I start doing some investigating...
So what do I find?
Well it would seem that I'm one of the good guys, I finally have good Karma :)
Only another year or two and I may have Excellent Karma!
Then I find out you can be mailed if a friend has updated their journal, so I thought, what the hell, if anyone is listening...
Hear me roar :)
Righto, I'm off to see

Comment Howabout legislation? (Score 1) 456

It may be difficult for the states to do anything about finding people, but it could work. I live in Indiana, and recently a law came into effect that instituted a "No Call" list for telemarketers. The program is voluntary, so you have to call to get on the list by a certain deadline (every six months or so), but once on the list, it becomes illegal for telemarketers to call. At that point, the state has a legal recoures against violators. Just a thought. ~Vlade
