This guy SE Asia's All true, but.. Just the government setting an expectation by passing a law can be partially effective, especially in Asia, though it's not really predictable which laws people take seriously and which they don't. People will report obvious violations for "fun and profit" (i e. receive financial rewards for being a tattle tale), doing much more to curb use. And of course in this case posting content is both visible and verifiable.

Nuff said

Now I don't need to turn it on manually.

This has been the idea from the beginning.

That is all

So I should first negotiate to keep the rights (and by that I assume copyright?) to any existing work when I move jobs?

Tozzle on the apple store was a hit with my daughter at 1 and 2, possibly a lot bit basic for a 3 year old but try it out. If nothing else she will master it in a couple of weeks and move on to something else. Apart from that my almost 4 yo is onto Angry Birds!

The old USA continues to get scarier and scarier

My guess, this will be another scheme where the network driver on the client has to respond to congestion control/back-off style requests from the AP, staying off the air for a (random?) amount of time. The AP will just be slightly more sophisticated about who it tells to back-off. Even NTP has this feature.

If you can't code, you're probably a Windows admin.

85-90 is ok, but 90-100? Why that would have been.. outrageous! Criminal!

"It's true enough that a properly encoded Ogg file (or MP3, or AAC file) will be indistinguishable from the original at a moderate bitrate." Rubbish. Any lossy format but particularly mp3 sounds GRUESOME to anyone with a trained ear. And untrained ears can certainly tell the difference once it's pointed out, usually on a good system. If you want to know how to get 11:1 compression ratio on a pseudorandom source like sound, it's simple - they throw away most of the information ,particularly spatial information in the upper frequency ranges. You can't "hear" some of those frequencies, but you can certainly perceive when they are absent. I personally cannot stand mp3s and never use them. FLAC all the way.
