I'd rather have tracking deeper than the first page of each site, than themed sections, not that it's a bad idea.

I wouldn't mind CSV or JSON data and I'm sure some people would prefer XML. Should be trivial to make dumps in each of those formats.

That's a good point, I guess the orientation of the subpixels could make things weird.

They show both portrait and landscape mode in the video and it doesn't look like there's a problem though.

The WIFI is on-board. Ethernet,usb,etc are supposed to be provided through a docking station (which I haven't seen anywhere). If you view the video included in the article, they mention this as well as point out the WIFI led on the device.

I think Rapidshare not being responsible for infringement must be contingent on what Rapidshare does to fight it.

Well they have damn good lawyers, since now they don't have to check filenames, check checksums, IP addresses, manually check lists of links (according to your post below) and whatever else.

So what does that leave Rapidshare with? Do they just have to manually check files when a copyright owner submits a complaint with a list of links?

(On a sidenote, I could make a pretty good link finder and make it send complaints automatically, there must be some good money in offering such a service to copyright owners)

>It's a huge win for the site, which suffered a major setback in the case before a Düsseldorf court back in 2008.

A huge win for Rapidshare, a loss for website owners, since this implies that the responsibility lies on those who host or publish links to Rapidshare.

That post uses Domains by Proxy as an example, which is an awful service. Towards the end of the article, Dynadot explains the whois protection service THEY offer themselves. That's what Namecheap (and other registrars) does and it's what I've always used.

I can tell you for a fact that I receive a lot less email spam at the email address I use for whois, because Namecheap changes the address (which forwards to mine) listed every other day. Also I don't get any snail mail junk, although this was never a big issue.

Exactly. I mentioned this in my original post above. They already know whether the "pay what you want" sale works or not.

You should use an extra line break between paragraphs in order to avoid wall-of-text mode.

It surely is a way to discourage people that aren't serious about their business plan. However, my instinctual response is: No.

What is so wrong about body odour? I'm sure there must have been a time, not too long ago, when people smelled like people.

Sometimes, I don't shower for 3-4 days. You don't sweat that much if you are hacking away at a keyboard for 12 hours a day.

I don't see how showering ever day is hygienic. You are stripping your skin and hair of natural oils,bacteria and whatnot. Then you have to use more substances to fight the negative effects of the above. On top of that, you spray yourself with long-lasting synthetic smells or things that stop your armpits from sweating.

I shower every other day, more or less. I don't use deodorants. I don't use colognes, except on rare occasions. Haven't had any complaints from other people.
