Slashdot
Politicians Seek Spam Loophole
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/08/21/2138257
[0]Steve B writes "An [1]article in the [2]Mercury News by [3]Mike
McCurry and [4]Larry Purpuro (respectively heading an "advocacy
management and communications software [5]company" and a "political
e-marketing [6]firm") wraps the case for political spam in all the
usual Mom-Flag-&-Apple-Pie cliches. They conclude with a cynical appeal
for a special exemption, while condescendingly instructing
anti-spammers that their efforts are "better focused on commercial
e-mail" and painting spammer Bill Jones as a victim who made a few
trifling mistakes."

[0]friedmud writes "I just read a great [1]interview over at [2]OPEN
for Business. It is with [3]KDE contributor Andreas Pour. He goes over
many topics - not only including KDE. My favorite part: 'they are
basically saying, if you stop obeying us, we will stop you from viewing
the documents you and your friends created. Who are they to say where
and when I read my documents? Now I need a monopolist's permission to
view my own creations? The audacity is mind-boggling, and that the
Justice Department is permitting it is simply astounding.' - Wow"

Super Audio CDs Rolling Your Way
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/08/21/2012213
donutello writes "[0]Slate is running an [1]article about the Rolling
Stones Remastered series discs having two layers: CD and [2]SACD. The
article contains some interesting information about how Sony is
sneakily distributing SACD players without the buyers noticing it.
[3]This FAQ provides some information about SACDs. Don't expect to be
able to play or reproduce these on your computer anytime soon. The SACD
format contains a physical watermark on the disc. SACD players will
only play discs with valid watermarks. Music watermarks had two
opponents: The audiophiles who didn't like their music distorted and
people who didn't like the watermarks preventing copying of the music.
With the physical watermarks, they have found a way to appease the
former while still stopping the latter thus causing a break in the
ranks of the opposition."

Cremation? Burial? How about Diamonds?
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/08/21/2052232
[0]travisbecker writes "From Reuters via [1]Yahoo! comes [2]this story.
"A Chicago company ([3]Lifegem) says it has developed a process for
turning cremated human remains into diamonds that can be worn as
jewelry." As for the quality... "If it's done slowly and with a great
deal of care, one could have a reasonably high-quality diamond,"
according to a quote in the story." This should not be confused with
our earlier diamond [4]discussion.

Copyright Infringement In the News
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/08/21/1840222
Lots of newsbits about copyright infringement today - let's mash them
all together with some egg whites and breadcrumbs and see what we get.
[0]marklyon writes "The DOJ announced that they are planning to
prosecute filesharers under the [1]The No Electronic Theft ("NET") Act.
John Malcolm, a deputy assistant attorney general, made the
pronouncement at the [2]Progress and Freedom Foundation’s annual
technology and politics summit Tuesday. [3]Cnet has extended coverage."
Reader M_Talon writes "According to [4]this article on ZDNET the RIAA
is using one of the DMCA's more nasty clauses...the right to subpoena
an ISP for a suspected pirate's personal information. They want to
force Verizon to reveal the customer's information, and Verizon is
refusing on the grounds that the pirated material isn't on their
servers." Reader MattW writes "Apparently some theaters are consenting
to [5]run anti-piracy ads before movies. After all, these are not a
bunch of [6]fat cats we're talking about -- piracy now threatens the
livelihood of the rank and file workers of Hollywood. After all, the
movie studios are [7]having a [8]terrible [9]year, [10]right?" Finally,
the Washington Post (probably one of the last articles we post from
their site, as they go registration-required) discovers [11]spoofed
files on Gnutella, and public radio is reporting that the [12]RIAA will
drop their suit against listen4ever.com, since it's, uh, gone.

Linux and Public Access Computing?
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/08/21/1750208
An [0]Anonymous Coward asks: "The [0]Seattle Community Technology
Alliance is a non profit, federally funded, public/private project that
supports community technology centers in the Seattle area. We are
interested in moving our public workstations from Win 2000 to Linux. In
order to do this, we need good multi-lingual options and the abiltiy to
create 'guest accounts' that prevent users from changing settings (to
provide a consistent environment for users). What are the best tools
for multi-user Linux labs? Should we use KDE? Gnome? How do we keep
users from changing settings? We are eager to start experimenting, but
would appreciate expert advice on starting points!"

One of its five parts is the [3]developer survey based basically on
developers from the European Union. Results show that Debian is the
preferred distribution, GNOME the desktop the majority choose and vi
more popular than Emacs. But this survey also handles economic,
law-related and motivation aspects among developers that make it very

Broadband To Hit The South Pole

[0]Albanach writes: "According to [1]this story from the BBC bids are
being invited to lay a fibre-optic cable some 1600 kilometres over
polar ice, linking [2]researchers at the South Pole with the rest of
the planet. Currently, researcher's communications rely upon older
satellites that have drifted from their geostationary orbits into ones
that are now at least partly visible from the pole. The new cable will
be laid on top of the 4km ice cap, and will have to cope with repeated
freezing and stretching as the ice moves."

Displaying Number of Comments in Storylink,Index,D
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=02/08/16/0544259
I've been trying to find the code that displays the number of comments
on a story. In looking at the template "storylink,index,default", I see
[% links.join(' | ') %] which I assume is the item that displays the
"(Read more | X comments...)" Where the heck to do find this?
RSS Source for QOTD
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=02/08/15/151241
I'm trying to implement a Quote Of The Day functionality in my site,
and I was wondering if anyone knows of any good source of RSS
syndication for Quotes?

Theme addition 'include_theme'
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=02/08/09/0650236
In CVS there is a new addition to the THEME file syntax. You can now
choose to add an included theme. This allows you too easily create a
theme with just your changed templates (yet still pick up fixes to the
templates you don't customize). If you base your site off of the
"slashcode" theme just add to your theme file: include_theme=slashcode
If this is for a site that already exists make sure you add this
information to the site_info table.
Invalid command 'PerlHandler'
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=02/08/07/2319210
Hi all, I come already the two days trying to install the Slash in two
machines with Mandrake.. I followed all the steps of the installation
manual, however I have received, when initiating the apache with the
INCLUDE of slash.conf this error: ---- Syntax error on line 6 of
/etc/httpd/conf/slash.conf: Invalid command 'PerlHandler', perhaps
mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server
configuration. -- I'm checked lists and installed File-Spec with:
"install RBS/File-Spec-0.82.tar.gz"... Without this configuration
Apache works fine! Help me please!
Image and File Uploads?
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=02/08/06/0531259
Is/will there be a plugin to allow slash to be able to upload files and
images? Something like what Moveabletype has?
Slashcode login hangs
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=02/08/05/199233
Have the lastest Slash codebase running. However, when a user attempts
to log in with a correct password, the page just sits there--the IE
icon twirls mysteriously, as if connection was being made, but no
return. Conversely, if the enter a valid username, but invalid
password, the page return is immediate, with a message that either the
username or password was incorrect. Any assistance...etc. --Hieronymous

Install Slash For Dummies - failing on final step
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=02/08/04/0626227
I was successful with every step of the "Install Slash For Dummies"
instructions, but then failed on the final step when starting slash:
[root@dedicated init.d]# ./slash start Starting slashd virtslash: ok
PID = 28526 [root@dedicated init.d]# This account is currently not
available. Does anyone have any ideas how to troubleshoot? I've looked
through the docs and can't find anything...
