schestowitz | "Hey there! Gento is your latest fan. He became your fan because he likes what you are up to on Digg and wants to see what you think is interesting. You can either leave him as a fan or add him to your own list of friends. Check out his profile here:" | Jan 04 21:41 |
schestowitz | 9:42PM | Jan 04 21:41 |
Axz | lmao | Jan 04 21:42 |
Axz | yeah | Jan 04 21:42 |
schestowitz | I can't add more friends because it's maxed up | Jan 04 21:42 |

Axz | Yeah nice job on web mate | Jan 04 21:45 |
Axz | i think its heaving patient | Jan 04 21:45 |
schestowitz | Yes. | Jan 04 21:45 |

Axz | well mine is 3 months old | Jan 04 21:45 |
schestowitz | I spend less time on other things now. | Jan 04 21:45 |
schestowitz | It's a momentum thing. | Jan 04 21:45 |
schestowitz | Hold on. | Jan 04 21:45 |
Axz | we are progressive Tech/Piracy/Linux general culture | Jan 04 21:46 |
Axz | lets say freedom of speech | Jan 04 21:46 |
schestowitz | This was published today: http://www.linuxinsider.com/story/W... | Jan 04 21:46 |
schestowitz | Some people see their sites tripling in size of audience | Jan 04 21:46 |
schestowitz | Some just die like Technocrat or slow down like Groklaw | Jan 04 21:46 |
schestowitz | schestowitz.com has also been fairly static for /years/ | Jan 04 21:46 |
Axz | yeps | Jan 04 21:46 |
schestowitz | So the readership that seeks new stuff (subscriber) moves on (and away) | Jan 04 21:47 |
schestowitz | Yes, the trolls are still attacking my submissions in Digg | Jan 04 21:47 |
Axz | yeah, well its funny world writing articles. | Jan 04 21:48 |
schestowitz | They get near to the front page, so they try to gag me | Jan 04 21:48 |
schestowitz | Stupid vandals. | Jan 04 21:48 |
Axz | wow | Jan 04 21:48 |
schestowitz | Microsoft TEs fearing their their masters might be seen for the crimes they commit.. | Jan 04 21:48 |
schestowitz | I had to log off to see the abuse: http://digg.com/linux_unix/Is_Mi... | Jan 04 21:49 |
schestowitz | In RSS I see this too because that's where I'm lgogged off, so no fiters | Jan 04 21:49 |
schestowitz | The first chap there is a Microsoft booster | Jan 04 21:49 |
schestowitz | Been doing this for years in lots of the major sites, inc. Slashdort | Jan 04 21:49 |
schestowitz | A former editor of Slashdot admitted that Microsoft is gaming them | Jan 04 21:50 |
schestowitz | The second comment is worth reading too. | Jan 04 21:50 |

PetoKraus | schestowitz: this might be an interesting article for you http://www.cleverjoe.com/articles... | Jan 04 23:08 |
PetoKraus | it is pretty old, but worth read | Jan 04 23:09 |
schestowitz | The problem is, not the singers are paid | Jan 04 23:10 |
schestowitz | Music is everywhere. | Jan 04 23:10 |
schestowitz | Birds sing too | Jan 04 23:10 |
schestowitz | Music is acquired by inspiration | Jan 04 23:10 |
PetoKraus | well this article deals with something different | Jan 04 23:10 |
schestowitz | So all music is just an assembly of inpuit we received, outputted broadly | Jan 04 23:10 |
schestowitz | And copyrights are for labels most of the time | Jan 04 23:11 |
PetoKraus | it's basically - say you wanna record your piano works playing, say, Dire Straits or Keith Emerson | Jan 04 23:11 |
schestowitz | They own the copyrights | Jan 04 23:11 |
PetoKraus | and when you wanna release your cover, you need to pay royalty fee | Jan 04 23:11 |
PetoKraus | i just wonder whether it applies for commercial use only, or for non-commercial distribution as well | Jan 04 23:11 |
schestowitz | It's impractical | Jan 04 23:11 |
schestowitz | If everyone paid for oxygen, that would just be a zero sum game | Jan 04 23:11 |
PetoKraus | as far as I understand the word "royalty", it's %age of gain, isn't it | Jan 04 23:11 |
schestowitz | Same with software patents | Jan 04 23:11 |
PetoKraus | from sale | Jan 04 23:11 |
schestowitz | Economically, it's better off to live without them. | Jan 04 23:12 |
PetoKraus | well anyway | Jan 04 23:12 |
schestowitz | Rednditions are another beast | Jan 04 23:12 |
PetoKraus | i can proceed with my Kyuss - Big Bikes ۩ hunt | Jan 04 23:12 |
schestowitz | People are not allowed to do their own rendition of "happy birthday" | Jan 04 23:12 |
schestowitz | Let alone utter lyrics | Jan 04 23:12 |
PetoKraus | Library of Congress | Jan 04 23:13 |
PetoKraus | Copyright Office | Jan 04 23:13 |
PetoKraus | Licensing Division, LM-458 | Jan 04 23:13 |
PetoKraus | 101 Independence Avenue, S.E. | Jan 04 23:13 |
PetoKraus | Washington, D.C. 20557-6400 | Jan 04 23:13 |
schestowitz | That's a dangerous path to take. | Jan 04 23:13 |
schestowitz | Lawyers, like bankers, are a form of leech that creates revenue from other people's misery, which is imposed from above. | Jan 04 23:13 |
schestowitz | Copyrights are for people without talent where they are enforced with little realisation of business models that maximise exposure | Jan 04 23:13 |
schestowitz | Better known artists are just selling themselves to advertisers | Jan 04 23:13 |
schestowitz | People like Speaks become big because of the "brand" the MAFIAA built for her. | Jan 04 23:14 |

schestowitz | So copytights are mostly for them to monetise her as an object | Jan 04 23:14 |
schestowitz | For voice, dance, looks, etc. | Jan 04 23:14 |
schestowitz | That's how the moguls view it too and treatment -- likewise -- is bad. | Jan 04 23:14 |
