Code-Breakers Go to Court. Ed Felten, who did research for the Secure Digital Music Initiative Foundation and decided to publish it (and to present the paper at a conference) rather than turn it over to the SDMI is suing the RIAA, the SDMI, and others. The SDMI folks said that they never intended to pursue legal action, but the plaintiffs say that’s not enough – they’re seeking precedent that privileges the First Amendment over the DMCA.

What is
Blink.com and why does their popup keep, well, popping up? Hmmm.
I just came across
tvgohome for the first time tonight. As a friend described it, “As Monty Python is to the Smothers Brothers, tvgohome is to The Onion“.
The FAQ has a particularly funny bit: “Why use a JPEG for the listings instead of text?
Because I want precise control over the layout. And because it seriously annoys “real ale” Internet users who do all their browsing on text-based hand-held calculators, and that arouses me.”
Speaking of
Although the apartment
I’ve been in for the past year is mine (not a shared situation), for the past year I had a semi-roommate, who lived in Ottawa but came back to Montreal every weekend or second weekend. It was a pretty good deal all around – a deal that ended this past weekend. I didn’t need the money or anything, so it’s no problem to lose it – and now I have the enjoyable situation of having a completely empty room to figure out what to do with! Do I move my office there, and use my current office as a permanent dining room? Do I buy a new couch and put my convertable futon thingie back there so it can serve as a guest room? Do I just use it for storage?
Damn, the possibilities are endless. And considering them makes me feel quite, ah, old.
