It won't work. This happened in the UK. The ISPs were forced to blocked thepiratebay.se and any other variants that court orders stipulate, but there are some many proxies being created all the time that it's a pointless endeavour. Effectively, there's no meaningful block as it's impossible to maintain.

Fusion ReactOS. Every time I read about it, it always appears that it will be fully complete and operational in about 10 years from now.

Submission + - The sad state of open IPCameras (bluecherrydvr.com) 2
criticalmess writes: I'm about to give up on any decent hardware to be found to roll my own web-based camera setup around the house and office — and thought that the nerds and experts at /. would be my last resource I could pull out.
Having bought multiple IPCamera (DLink, Abus, Axis, Foscam, TP-Link, ...) and always getting the "requires DirectX" treatment, I'm wondering if there are any open and affordable IPCams out there? I've been lookint at BlueCherry and their kickstarter campaign to create a complete opensource hardware solution (http://www.bluecherrydvr.com/2013/06/21/bluecherry-open-source-high-resolution-ip-camera-update/), I've been looking at Zavio (http://www.zavio.com/) as they seem to offer the streams in an open enough format while not breaking the bank on the hardware. Anything else I should be looking at?
I can't for the love of it understand why most of these hardware companies require you to run DirectX — anybody care to enlighten the crowd?
Should be simple enough really: hardware captures images, a small embedded webserver transforms this into an RTSP stream or HTTP stream, maybe on h264 or similar — done.

The last time I saw the word "smelt" outside of metallurgy was in The Hobbit.
Huh. I suppose, "Whoever smelt it, dealt it", refers to the sale of mithril shirts.

Absolutely right. Seoul has very cheap taxis compared to other developed capitals and they are really everywhere. There is much less need for Uber there.
