MPAA sez, "We shouldn't have to prove infringement took place before collecting $150k per file in damages"

June 21, 2008 5:11am

Well, obviously, it's every American's Patriotic Duty to pay the MPAA $150,000 times whatever number they give you! Clearly, we are all pirates, sailing the seas of the Internets, raping and pillaging the poor artists.

Google making a network neutrality detector

@Arby #6:

Yep. Good one! Do not let Google blind you from some of their wrong actions with some of their right ones.

The network censoring of China through Google is one of the worst things they've done. It was that, or no Google in China, I suppose, but they didn't go the route of right.

Anyway, the idea that a distributed network of users could detect violations of, and someday possibly enforce their own set of rules on the Internet/web/tubes/waste of time is simply incredible. Kudos to Google for taking a kickass recommendation from our very own cape-and-goggled advisor.

Emotionally charged photo of woman being evicted from private property in Brazilian Amazon

June 6, 2008 3:40pm

1. Photoshopped.

2. This photo was framed to make The State look like the bad guy. Another journalist could easily have taken pictures of a lone policeman being attacked by the member of the Landless Movement.

3. Um, still Photoshopped.

"the video size: 176 x 144. That's only a handful of pixels bigger than those video watches(128 X 128), and less than a 1/3 of VGA resolution."

So, it'll be good for filming video that you want to watch on your video watch?

Make a mousetrap powered toy car

You can blow away any four wheel vehicle with a two wheel model.
Hang the mousetrap from a pair of eyelets, and run an axle through them, so that the trap swings freely below it. Use a pair of good old LP's for your wheels. I used threaded bolts, and nuts and washers to hold the records in place. You don't need an arm to extend the reach of your string, a short string will do. This sucker will go F-A-R!
