He gives us a few case studies which show problems in the current layout: http://cr.yp.to/slashpackage/studies.html

If you care to read slashpackage page, you'll see he suggests something like gobolinux does.

Sincerely, I don't even care, I'll pirate one way or the other. I don't care at all for the health of game, music or movie industry. If they drop out of existance I'll just use the tons of games, music and movies that were already produced and I haven't tried yet.

just ask a different question "would you like to see all the colors? Would you like to be white, black or yellow? Do you want to find women or men sexually attractive?" it's just really adding options to what a person can do.

Interesting. I was in bed with this Chineses national, wearing nothing but a banana hammock, and she told me how she loves China. She began arguing quite unlogically that freedom isn't everything and that she likes that the government is taking care that she only reads what's important. She argued that their slashdot doesn't have any trolls and everyone is insightful or interesting.

After that we began to talk about free software and things just got out of hands. Time to taste the freedom! I told her while I opened a laptop with Debian Linux running. She was quite unreasonable about it and left. They are all brain washed, I tell you!

I didn't click it. My name was suggested to a bunch of people I know, though. So, even though I'm not a "member" I come up as a possible member. I just didn't think it was nice of them. I didn't click it out of luck, anyway, because I had no idea what buzz is when it came up and, if I was in an exploring mood, I'd just accept it to see what was that thing. Which is also not really nice. Had they mentioned it was like a twitter that uses my e-mail address, I'd say no everytime. But they certainly didn't phrase things like that.

They didn't lie to me, but they tricked me into making my email part of a social network.

Pure mathematics is useless, why would anyone want to learn it?

I avoid it for the trolls that want to tell you what you should or shouldn't ask.

It's not like you can't resolve a .xxx using a DNS different from the one which has it blocked. Heck, it could even be a web service. You open resolver.com, a site full with ads where you just paste the .xxx address and, in turn, get the IP. So .xxx is stupid no matter how you look at it.

What if I'm dealing with a client over the phone while answering such poll? It could mean I'm doing a lousy job, but it's still work nevertheless.
