I'm going to start using this chip and give up that market because...? What actually seems to be happening is that chipset DRM is being deployed silently, though not on a wide scale yet, and but for game consoles in a facultative version. Of course, such dormant DRM can be activated with subsequent software upgrades (watch the sneaky software-DRM games Cupertino plays). The billion dollar question is: will users let themselves lock in into the DRM prison, just because of a dangling premium content carrot, and the I gots your IP, my lawyers 0wnZ0r Ur 455 litigation stick? We're going to see soon, as HDTV on BluRayCo is going to be that experiment. The next-generation signal lanes to display devices are encrypted, so there's only the analog hole left to the naive user. Online activation of software is already quite widespread, so it seems customers are willing to accept restriction to ownership and use. OK, Gov officials will eventually start trying to introduce laws mandating such technologies be used, but by then it's going to come down to a battle of lobbies: The Entertainment industry vs Telecom+PCs++Software. Which can pump dollars into Senatorial hands faster? The entertainment industry has an order of magnitude less funds, but seems to spend them far more efficiently. Also, the Far East market is increasingly supplying itself, so Hollywood has less and less angle there.

In industrialized nations where the price of software is fairly low compared to the wages, people seem somewhat willing to pay. At least, we don't see ticket sales for big movies going down at all. So it could be that people will eventually voluntarily release control, as long as the consequences (ie, prices) aren't too high. On the other hand, the whole P2P phenomenon is not happening simply because people don't want to pay. Stupid industry execs will probably continue churning out the same stupid shit they always did and P2Pers will find some way around their protection if needs be.

google maps and latitude, longitude
For anyone who doesn't already know, there are several ways to get google maps to display a latitude/longitude. You can enter them in the query box like so: 35.5N 115.5W or 35.5,-115.5 (I think they added those within the last week or two.) Or you can use the original method, a GET-style form (I don't know whether POST works): form id=gooform action=http://maps.google.com/maps; method=get style=margin: 2px; input type=text value= name=q size=30 maxlength=512 / (lat,long input type=text value=33.835,-116.99 name=ll size=14 /) (span input type=text value=.001,.001 name=spn size=9 /) (type input type=text value=k name=t size=1 /) input type=submit value=Go / /form which translates into http://maps.google.com/maps?q=ll=33.835%2C-116.99spn=.001%2C.001t=k -- Unable to correct the source of the indignity to the Negro, [the Phoenix, AZ public accommodations law prohibiting racial discrimination] redresses the situation by placing a separate indignity on the proprietor. ...
