Hey! What you were seeing was the ownership network - basically each tiny little point represents groups of addresses that can be provably identified to belong to the same person. This is only a part of this owner chain - basically 4 hops away from the wikileaks owner address. That big ole gray blob is mount gox and tens of thousands of owners closely associated with mt gox!

The military budget is exactly 60% at 754 billion dollars for the 2012 budget! Hardly a "small percentage"!

Right? The SFL blog was so much easier to update than this.

Re: Android Multipart POST with Progress Bar

John Russell — Fri, 21 Oct 2011 22:28:12 -0000

Have you tried double checking your onProgressUpdate() function? Make sure you are using a ProgressDialog dialog. I've used this identical code for several projects and it definitely should show the progression. Try stepping through your code and seeing if multipartContent.getContentLength() returns the actual size of your entity.

You are completely correct - for whatever reason I didn't copy it over correctly. Changes have been made - thanks!

You can blame Disqus for that. I held my phone for 55+ minutes and at the end it completely corrupted the file. It's gone. Sorry.

Re: How Copyright Laws, a Judge, and a Bad Decision Have Crippled the World

Some good new, though:

"Google lawyer Daralyn Durie testified at the hearing that fewer than 10 million books of 174 million books in the world would be affected by the settlement, and that 5 million of those affected were out of print. Google has estimated that about 130 million titles would likely get into its digital library."

"New penalties for clubs that don’t spend allocated funds will be imposed in the future." - ... stupid does not describe the idea behind this sentence adequately.

Re: Tuesday Morning Lulz: Palin’s Marchin’ On

John Russell — Wed, 19 Jan 2011 11:05:13 -0000

I just can't get over how this is being played in a church. The song, which replaces God with Sarah Palin, is insanely sacrilegious.

"His truth is marching on." vs "Sarah's marching on." ... ugh.

So barry, are you going to cash in your tabs for vaccinations, books, clean water, shelters, or trees?

Re: The Separation of Church and State…

I misread the article. Harrison was the defendants lawyer, not the judge. Whoops

Re: The Separation of Church and State…

John Russell — Tue, 07 Dec 2010 02:08:37 -0000

I'd assume it was a violation because the judge said it was:

"Number one, there was no disorderly conduct. Number two, he has a first amendment right to speak in a public forum such as he did. And number three, the legislature was violating our U.S. Constitution as well as the Hawaii constitution by having these invocations," Harrison said.

Re: Kinsella’s Intellectual Property Against Intellectual Property

John Russell — Tue, 02 Nov 2010 01:14:13 -0000

If I were to use an idea from you and make millions from it, someone who believes in the myth of intellectual property would claim that I would owe that money to the "owner". However, what if I were to use an idea from you and lose millions? Wouldn't a proponent of IP agree that you be liable for the money lost?

Can we get this crap off our site? No persuasive piece should ever relegate to such a level of profanity...
