EMI Promises Downloadable Music

EMI's plans to implement digital music downloading starting on December

users to get music in 'the formats they are demanding' (ogg?), to burn
copies of songs, and download them to other devices. Here's the

New EL Touchscreen Remote Control
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/11/14/007251
[0]raminf writes "Stumbled across the Kameleon -- a new remote control
device from [1]Univeral Electronics. The interface is a blank
electro-luminescent touch-screen. The 'buttons' are animated graphics
drawn to match any device you choose . You can update new device
interfaces via a modem (specs aren't clear how exactly). You can also
define 'macro' buttons to do multiple tasks with one button. Apparently
it also has a built-in motion-sensor and turns itself on when you pick
it up. You can't buy it directly in the U.S. yet. [2]Here's a British
web-site that carries it and has some specs and a [3]picture. Here's
the [4]company press release. RadioShack has announced they'll be

FTC Sues Six in Spam E-Mail Round-Up

TamMan2000 writes "[0]This story over at [1]Yahoo makes it look like
the [2]federal government is going after some spammers with gusto...
Although they seem to be busting them for fraud via spam rather than
just the fact that they spam, it is still good to see them going after
them. Also interesting, it looks like one of the things they are
nailing them for is the fraudulent 'remove me from your mailing list'
that actually brings more spam."

87GB On DVD-Sized Media

times more data on a disk than a common DVD can hold, using optical
media made with common products, the December issue of Nature Materials

required "Reasonable and Non-Discriminatory" (RAND) licensing fees.

board mentioned last month, which came after a [2]proposed loosening of

[1]Atlanta Journal-Constitution is [2]reporting that their staff music
writer, Bill Wyman, has received a cease-and-desist letter from lawyers
representing former Rolling Stone Bill Wyman, for "a seriously
misleading and, arguably, an intentional, unauthorized exploitation of
our client's name, goodwill and publicity value." It should be
interesting to see how this one plays out, because Bill Wyman the
musician was born William George Perks and changed his name to Bill
Wyman in 1964. Journalist Bill Wyman was given that name at his birth
in 1961."

Taiwan Asks Microsoft To Open Windows Source
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/11/14/1813251
[0]Andy Tai writes "According to [1]this China Times article (in
Chinese), the Republic of China government has asked Microsoft to open
Windows source code. The official, Lin Jua-Cheng, in charge of the
[2]'e-government' initiative, says many other countries have also sent
similar requests to Microsoft. Lin explains that without Windows source
code, the government cannot add custom firewall functionalities to
Windows based systems in wide use, and that is very bad for the
information security of Taiwan. Microsoft refused to publicly release
the source in the past using reasons of copyright protection, but Lin
emphasizes this request is reasonable since it is based on (government
users') necessity." Read on for a bit more, too. (Can anyone suggest an
online Chinese <--> English translation engine that produces other than
gibberish?)

Spam-X 2.0
http://freshmeat.net/releases/103518/
Spam-X is a very unique and effective proactive approach to spammers.
Not only does it act as a spambot tarpit by trapping a spambot into
requesting page after page of random, fake email addresses, it also
acts as though it were on a very slow link by taking a full minute to
send each page of sixty random mailto: links. It outputs extremely
minimal HTML in an effort to minimize its bandwidth impact, while at
the same time allowing you to flood a visiting spambot's database with
thousands of worthless email addresses and consume a great deal of the
spambot's time. Placing a small or hidden link to the Spam-X script
above any valid mailto: links on your site will hopefully trap the
visiting spambot and prevent it from actually harvesting your valid
email addresses.
Spurge RGTP server 0.5.1
http://freshmeat.net/releases/103516/

Slashcode
How to kickstart meta-moderation?
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=02/11/13/0311207
I have a small slash site with a small number of users (by design) with
a few dozen stories and probably fewer than 200 comments posted so far.
The slash engine is handing out moderation points, perhaps because I
reset some of the configuration variables. But meta-moderation is not
operating.I recall that this has something to do with the number of
moderations (I'd look in the archives but the search function on
slashcode has been down for a while...). Unfortunately, I have one user
who could stand some meta-moderation NOW, before he drives other users
away with his down-mods. Yet I don't see any configuration variables or
anything else I can tweak to make meta-moderation start up. I would
rather the enforcement of community standards come from the community
rather than some heavy-handed act by the site administration. Any way
to force meta-moderation on?
Show Domains: Explain, please.
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=02/11/10/057254
On the user comments options page, an option exists to "Show the links
domain only in recommended situations". What are the "recommended
situations", exactly? How does this differ from the option to "Always
show link domains"?
Upgrading to MySQL 4?
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=02/11/03/015232
In order to support some other projects I need to roll out on my
server, I need to upgrade to a real ACID database, which supports
transactions. Has anybody yet tried using Slash running on MySQL 4.0,
which now supports transactions? Are there any caevats or tricks to
doing the switchover, beyond the general upgrade notes for MySQL?
Slash plugins and version 2.3
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=02/11/01/0552241
I've been looking at a lot of modules (specifically email.pm and
Galleria), and it appears that they all require Slash version 2.3. Is
upgrading from 2.2.6 to one of the 2.3 versions dangerous? Is it as
simple as compiling and installing? Are there places to get these
plugins written for the release version of Slash? Or am I being a
nincompoop?
How to Make Users Authors?
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=02/10/30/200220
What is the proper way to turn users into authors? I'm interested in
this because I would like to use Slash as something my group uses to
communicate with each other and the world. I would like the people in
the group to function as the authors since it is their site. I've been
looking around in documentation and FAQs but can't find this documented
anywhere.
SubnetID is masked using what?
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=02/10/30/1959257
When Slash stores the SubnetID in the database, what Subnet mask is it
using? I was hoping to find this in the vars table, but no luck. Any
ideas?
www.vorlonspace.org
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=02/10/29/2232226
It's still in development for other things, but vorlonspace.org is now
up and running (for the most part). Thanks to the guys on the irc
channel that helped me with some of the configuration issues I had.
This site is going to be a nexus of Babylon 5 information stemming from
the television show to the out of print customizable card game.

I have a new site up and running, not Much in the way of content but I
do have some information about one of my projects up at this point.
Enjoy.
Code for Moderator Status Headline on Front Page?
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=02/10/26/1952222
Slashdot is now running a very useful banner on the front page when the
user is a moderator: "You have X Moderator Points! Use 'em or lose
'em!". My users have been asking for something like this for weeks. Can
someone point me to the appropriate template mod please?
Comment Status "Read-only" means what, exa
http://slashcode.com/article.pl?sid=02/10/24/1558218
There are 3 posible commentcodes defined in the default installation of
the code_param table: "Comments Enabled", "Comments Disabled", and
"Read Only". The first two options are fairly obvious, either allowing
or disallowing comments in the discussion (I presume). But what is the
"Read Only" option for? How does it differ from "Comments Disabled"?
