My Private Registration is a service offered by Melbourne IT: http://www.melbourneit.com.au/help/index.php?faqid=30

They seem have a proper lookup as well where you can look up true details http://www.melbourneit.com.au/help/index.php?questionid=50137

As is usual, people and reporters pick and choose from articles the words that have the most impact. These words usually end up misrepresenting the information in question.

As said by harlows_monkeys on Slashdot. "Actually, if you read the document, I think you'll see that it says making MP3s and putting them in the shared folder is unauthorized. It doesn't say it would be unauthorized to make MP3s and put them in a non-shared folder."

I find it quite amusing you can shoot at a human looking target in real life, but they won't let you do it in computer games. Shouldn't Jack Thompson be cracking down on this sort of thing? THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!

He said.. "Personally, I definitely believe they exist" which was a personal opinion, and not an official government position.

Oblig movie reference that isn't the Matrix. "The 13th Floor" - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0139809/

They'll take one look at us, and put a comment down in the log book..."Mostly Harmless"... and move onto more interesting things to look at.

Don't forget that the light is probably a few hundred/thousand years old. The pixel you are looking at could have been wiped out by an asteroid(or other nasty galactic event) by the time the light reaches you.

Speaking of Gotham, they'd be right at home here http://my.opera.com/gjhall/albums/showpic.dml?album=66369&picture;=935520

Ned Kelly did this back in 1880 :P http://www.wilsonsalmanac.com/ned_kellys_last_stand.html

I'm surprised they let you take a photograph INSIDE the bank. What if you had tried that in a bank in the US? SWAT? National Guard?

Haha. Day after(before?) they stopped it http://consumerist.com/346432/mcdonalds-stops-advertising-on-elementary-school-report-cards

OMG. The FBI lying? What is the world coming to?

Here's another parasite that mind controls grasshoppers http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn7927

The way it works is it creates a file on your normal NTFS/FAT32 partition, like an ISO for Daemon Tools, or Nero Virtual Drive. This file is used as a Linux EXT3 partition, and is bootstraped by a custom kernel. The Wubi program adds an entry into XP or Vista's boot manager to boot into it. No modification to either boot sector or partitions are required, GRUB/LILO isn't used. It's very cool, although as mentioned before, very very slow, but that's mainly because the NTFS-3G driver isn't optimized yet.

@5. There is software to move the file across to a full partition, the Wubi FAQ explains it all nicely.

YES YES YES
We have some of the most draconian copyright laws in existance, we have no concept of "Fair Use" like the US, and we weren't even allowed to Format Shift until a couple years ago. I'm not good at writing big long reports, but i really hope someone with a flair for words can write a submission that our government will take notice of.

Just me or does this sound like A) Skynet, or B) A Classic StarTrek episode?

Sorry, no EULA can ever beat Virgin Digital's http://www.joegratz.net/archives/2004/09/27/virgin-digital-pretty-good-eula/

Has it got anything to do with Can Crushing? http://tesladownunder.com/CanCrushing.htm

While on the topic of finding free disk space, i highly recommend Windirstat http://windirstat.info/ for Windows (open sauce!)

"They should do death animations from Metal Slug."

Only if it's Fiolina Germi

I bought the game, i bought the expansion, i'll be buying the next expansion and so on. I use totalgaming.net and have a subscription to their ObjectDesktop system. I support Stardock and their software whole heartedly. The games are worth buying for their value alone and the No-DRM is just icing on the cake.

Here is some other photos from the the guy(s) who did it.
