mostly with you, only problem with your text is that often the authors (expecially in the music industry) aren't the copyright holders...
or have some draconian contract that practically leave them as if they werent.

unfortunately the core problem is the fucking stupid users, no way to smat them up, nor to sack them...

the second problem is the presence of more than 100 different programs, about 2 to 15 are to install in every single station in seemly random assortment that vary wildly depending on the single user...
no way to solve that either.

the third is a continuous spawning of new programs or functionality to implement the week before, so that you hastily put something up, than have to spend 5 time that time to correct, expand, modify, document ecc...
all between a problem and an emergency

without those 3 problem there would be less than 1/5 of the problem... end personal needed.

now there is 4.5 tecnician, and 2.5 administrative to manage about 50-60 servers (half linux half win) and about 500 users on windows pc

unfortunately we (the reasonably well informed citizen) certainly doesn't need another video on berlusconi...

it's the 70-90% of the population that live completely oblivious of the truckload of crime, corruption and assault to the constitution that the berlusconi's government represent.
and that's because they are completely nubed by the tv and various papers submitted to berlusconi control...

that's where the theory of capitalism fail, if every laptop owner know that it has been ripped of money for nothing in return
than, maybe, market would work (and low the price),

but the main component that influence the market today are publicity and obfuscation of real characteristics and flaws of product

not informed comparison of products, where intelligent and informed people could decide if they want more reliable, more durable or cheaper product of a certain kind and, buying it, influence the market production.

no, that's what happen if you use all your uranium and plutonium for atomic bombs :)

true, but unfortunately the business is ruled not by the desire to still be there the next century, but to show a profit the next quarter...

and if some branch of the multinational screw up greatly and die in few years... that bother only the employee not the top manager that go to manage some other establishment!

the analogy of the good king and bad king had much to it, the good king typically is also relatively good father that want to leave a good reign to his children, the bad one typically (not necessarily so but usually) is a person lusting for power, now and for himself the remote future doesn't matter.

so now we really need a good king of earth to care for the whole planet, ecologically and economically :)

except everyone in europe should be able to sell his video in england,

but if he doesn't know of a standard required there and it sell his product and then will be brought to tribunal for not following the law, you see were the problem is....

same here, I started muting the tv set and averting the eyes every time advertising appear and adblocking end are many years that i'm over sensitive to those invading ads that everyone talk about...

the major problem in your sentences is the word "chose",

evolution is a result of a lot of different events and none of them is sentient nor is the total of them,

so "choosing" an non redundant path isn't something that a "sentient" evolution logically do, it's simply a frequent occurrence because more simple solution to a problem tend to have easier time survive and reproduce.

munckin rulez :)

with some reservation in some areas i certainly undersign it!

not counting on the fact that the location were my 15 friend and i gater to play at CoD4 doesn't have any adsl

but it's the only location were we could gather to play because none of our homes had enough space and none had the capability to support the energy drain of 16 modern pc!!!

and hardly 1/2 of us will play from our homes because it's a pleasant occasion to gather, and insults via Voip aren't so much satisfactory! :)

so no lan -> no gathering -> no playing -> no buying
