Nice job, Chris. This article alone is sufficient for a layman like me to understand why FCC's proposed rule on modular transmitters and electronic labels for wireless devices are absurd from freedom point of view. Wish you all the success in your efforts in this regard!! "This time

Maybe you could try streaming from https://libre.fm. A lot of the songs there are CC-BY-SA. I sometimes check the box "Only play me songs that other people love".

You think this music would be good for a party? I've really got utterly no idea about music. I'm not sure if any of the OpenBSD songs are particularly inappropriate (either for a party, or political messages within, certainly don't want to promote BSD's message at the 30th party for FSF)

I guess that depends on what kind of party it is. If it's for dancing then you might not want the genres to change randomly, which they do on libre.fm, but you can also download the songs from there directly and then only choose those that you think are appropriate. Playing OpenBSD songs

In addition to ThinkPenguin sponsoring the party I've volunteered to organize the FSF 30th Ohio B'day party. One of the things I need for the party is a playlist of songs. What would people suggest? I'm probably the worst person to come up with a playlist given I don't listen to music.

Right-click on the file in the file manager, go to the "Open With" tab, and click on the button labeled "Reset". That will reset the association of .pdf files to its default state. I don't have the problem you describe, so this should fix it.

Right click - open with other application - make sure "use as default" is checked and click on evince or whatever. Now all your pdfs will open with that app you chose.
