Re: Donations

Soliciting crimes is criminal activity, and therefor to be acted upon needs to be proved in court. Moreso, Wikileaks does not solicit. Essentially they accept brown envelopes and then work with reporters are multiple newspapers. For a very long time our media has worked this way: Investigative reporters who break stories can build up street cred, and then they start getting more brown envelopes. Over decades this practice has slowly been beaten into the ground by editorial standards built into the modern US-based media's control structures -- especially as we now see with AP and Reuters. The idea has been to (a) kill the story, if not possible then (b) interpret it so vaguely as to make it a non-story, and finally (c) provide enough pablum for the masses to keep them distracted. Wikileaks could be considered a partial reset of that control mechanism. Untill one is found guilty by court, any public occusations against him are considered defamation (criminal activity on it's own). So you have to pay for due process?

If you search around you'll find stories of how paypal in effect seizes the money; or at least, holds it, and creates a lot of trouble for people who rightfully own it. In contrast to this, the Swiss bank postfinance.ch has made it abundantly clear in the media that they are trying to get the money from his closed Swiss account to him some other way as soon as possible. Their decision to close is also shameful, but at least they immediately hand the money back as required by law. The US has no rule of law or due process, and most people won't care until it bites them. Anyways, this is way off topic now..

I'm guessing they lifted some bit of code and used it in the game. Does anyone have any idea what portion it might have been? :) well, possible to sit through those again? This time, prepare your camera. :) -jf There were also license notifications for AES, MD5, and RSA. I'm guessing these were probably for making sure online play integrity is assured, but I'm curious of those as well. --Doug

I guess it has to do with this PDF being a portfolio, like Anthony Bentley mentioned. How are the constituent PDFs stored in the portfolio PDF? Unencrypted? pdfinfo says they are encrypted, although it is probably only reporting on the container file. Does anyone have a link to a copy of the OP's original offending PDF, so I could try to poke it in this way? (I'm not gonna register w/ UPS just to see that guide.)

2010/12/5 Adam M. Dutko dutko.a...@gmail.com: Are you planning on having the OpenBSD development team perform some sort of illegal activity soon? If not, you shouldn't be worried about Paypal. You're discussing intent. Intent is a tricky thing that in the past lawyers had to jump through hoops to prove in the (fed)nited States. Now with the (un)Patriot Act and other legislation they can rely on the whole notion of pre-crime. Seems like most of America is happy with point and click hegemony and I'm glad the Internet is trying to block the interrupts. No, i think only US, because the most of the other countries have had really bad experience under the external US politics. Among US, peple could forgotten the McCarthyism. In fact, the people in El Salvador who were responsible to assassinate 80,000 persons; were trained at La escuela de las Americas in US. ; the rest of other Hispanic countries have had the same experience In Canada, we can see the effect of insanity coming from US; bands and crime. -- Agr. francisco Quinonez.

2010/12/5 Theo de Raadt dera...@cvs.openbsd.org: Ever head of Don Quixote? THe moral of the storey - pick the battles you have a chance of winning and avoid the rest. Such an American viewpoint. Well, revising old documents, the word America was not used by the Government of US; but after I and II world war; when Europeans properly used America to refer to the continent or its troops from Canada, US and maybe others countries this word was taken as if it were referring to US; i do not know if it is by ignorance or by conceit. It didn't work out for Don Quixote either. -- Agr. francisco Quinonez. Our mission, feed the World notre mission, nourrir au monde Nuestra mision, alimentar al mundo

I remember reading a Ghostscript bug about this (could probably find it again if I had the exact error message), but unfortunately Mupdf still doesn't support it. Here is the Ghostscript bug: http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=690422 From here it looks like you might be able to get it with gs after all. Good research Anthony. That bug describes my situation exactly. The only thing is that I didn't know what the hell a portfolio PDF was until now. Unfortunately, the gs ports is version 8.63 (released 2008-08-01). This bug report/fix happened in April 2009. Shit, now Mr. Schroder is going to be on my ass about patches again. :-P
