EMI to launch MP3 programme
href="http://www.emigroup.com/news/pr192.html">EMI press
release: These are interesting news. Finally
go on the MP3 bandwagon and are going to start selling music from
3000 artists online.
My hopes are that this will:
- Lower the record prices (a lot).
- Enable consumers to buy on a music per music base instead of
having to buy entire records.
Prices are still to be announced. We can only hope.
Already more than 20 music retail websites from six
different European countries are gearing up to start selling EMIs
new downloads and will go live at varying times over the coming
weeks. Additional retail partners are expected to join the
programme in due course.

Trackback! What for? Asks Dave.
Dave
href="http://scriptingnews.userland.com/2003/04/24#When:2:46:27PM">wants
to know what is trackback’s purpose. Well, if he had trackback,
at least he would know that I’m flaming him.
On a more serious note: I think trackback enables people to comment
someone elses post in its own blog. IMHO it’s one of the greatest
features of the blog universe.
Okay, now that I’ve implemented 1/2 of Trackback (and I
will implement the other half) may I ask “What is it for?” I
suppose I’ll get flamed for that. But it’s a serious
question.

Lazio 0 - Porto 0: Porto played a brilliant game and now only
one game separates us from the Uefa cup. Too bad Boavista
didn’t make it as it would be a great all portuguese final.

Trusted Debian
href="http://www.trusteddebian.org/">The Trusted Debian
project: Finally someone decided to attack the Buffer Overflow
exploits by going directly to the root of the problem.
From
Slashdot :
It features PaX, a kernel patch which does several
things. It tries to keep code and data apart, it randomizes stack,
code, heap and shared libraries, it does strict mprotect() checking
and it also protects the kernel. Trusted Debian also uses the stack
protector patch for GCC developed by Hiroaki Etoh at IBM, which
adds overflow checks to C/C++ code. It also features FreeS/WAN and
RSBAC, an extensive access control framework.
And, also from Slashdot,
an interesting comment:
Please note that Gentoo Linux also
comes with a propolice enabled GCC and a PaX-enabled kernel. It’s
up to you to use them or not.
ENT enabled RSS

Update: Some errors corrected. It should be ok
now. Thanks Matt!
