Re: [CGUYS] Relinquishing copyright on Wikipedia photo
chad evans wyatt cewyattph...@yahoo.com escribió: ...One of my photos was used in a sweater ad in the Czech Republic, with neither compensation nor attribution. Everyone knows Kafka, right? The Czech courts are very much in that stream. Another image was taken by a small French company to advertise sorbet. Again, unfruitful to go after them... Unfruitful sorbet? What flavor? Cassis? My attitude in this is to continue creating ideas I assume will be harvested eventually - often swiftly - by the unimaginative unwashed. It's so easy. I applaud David for asking. We've always contacted creators when considering using their work for our books. Most agree, some refuse, but at least they know about it, and we follow their wishes. However, music is different. While copying and sharing music is also stealing, musicians and singers can still be compensated when they perform. You can't perform a photo, illustration or painting so you have fewer options for making a living with your art. Copyrights and patents exist to encourage people to create new work, and have their creations/inventions protected for a short time so they could make a living while creating something else. Those protections are not effective since the laws were changed, not to protect and encourage invention, but to enrich distributors, corporations and heirs to the detriment of the creators. People sometimes don't respect the ownership of audio/video/arts because often when you pay the distributors, the money doesn't trickle down to the artists. That may not be so in this case, but the bad attitude remains. * ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *

Re: [CGUYS] Can't print -- OS X Leopard
Have you checked to see if the firmware has been altered? Security measures (including blocking USB ports) are often implemented by making changes in the firmware, and this won't be fixed by wiping the drive and reinstalling OS X. The problem is, if the bank altered the firmware, they likely protected the firmware with a password as well. A quick way to see if the firmware is password protected is to start up the computer while holding down the option key (this launches startup manager). If you see an icon for your hard drive then there is not a firmware password, but if you see a password box next to the image of a lock, then the firmware has password protection and you will have to disable it. I think restarting with a different amount of memory will disable the firmware password and allow you to restore the default settings. If the firmware is password protected, you should definitely circumvent the password and reset the firmware, and this will likely fix your problem. You may want to consider resetting or reinstalling the firmware in any case, just to eliminate the possibility that this is the source of your problems. You might find the following helpful. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379 http://maczealots.com/tutorials/security/ http://macsig.umich.edu/public/viewHowTo.php?HowToID=66 On Mar 13, 2009, at 12:00 AM, COMPUTERGUYS-L automatic digest system wrote: Maybe I'll just wipe the drive and start over to exorcise the bank's network settings.

Re: [CGUYS] sxsw
it is a fast way to download as the file you get comes in multiple parts simultaneously (torrents) and is assembled as it goes along ...in return for that, your part is to let the file be simultaneously uploaded to others who request it ...I do it sometimes ...there are stand alone torrent clients to acomplish this, but I have chosen the lazy man way to this end as Opera browser has the bittorrent client built in for free and, if active (there is a toggle in the prefs), it works just like any download. Once the download is done, it shows sharing in place of in progress and, if you close the browser, it will resume the get but NOT resume the share.

Re: [CGUYS] torrent, was: sxsw
Torrent is a process for defeating the normal throttling (individual bandwidth) of the Internet by downloading [large] files in several (more than one) parallel streams, each individual stream being normally throttled, but the resulting composite stream being Nx faster than a single stream.
