Very lame copyright law being prepared in Finland

Competing with the most d=ing stupid laws of the World, the copyright laws they are preparing in Finland don't seem to make much any sense.

The end of the low profile love story of the illegal internet celeb

One more update to this guy's story.

Now they are splitting up.
The reason looks to be that she had told him she had $40 K of savings, whereas she had $10K. So of course he was looking for plain money love.

"Back in Venezuela, Chavez is sinking everything, the economy is very bad, taxes at 15%, plus 10% luxury tax for other things. I mean, she just count with probably 10,000 dollars from a heritage and that is all what she have in her life. She may be making around $200 a month as a lawyer in a country where everything is 80% more expensive than here. "

Excuse me? You are telling me everything is 80 % more expensive. Food is not 80 % more expensive. Only manufactured luxury items are.
And the only way you can be bitching about a 15 % tax is when you are working 100 % illegal. If you have any income, FYI your taxes are normally FAR beyond 15 % in USA. So so much about your legal status here then.

And keeping such low profile in the Internet in your situation is good.

Low profile in the private life as posting to widely read sites in the Internet

Updates to mymemory getting married.

Now stealing his own words: "We are working the visas and paper work... what a nightmare!

So far and keeping everything very low profile because is getting so complicated. She can not obtain a tourist visa because she was rejected at the US embasy once about a year ago for no particular reason (well, the reason is that everybody wants to leave Venezuela)."
(D'oh??!! Keeping LOW profile means posting in a board in the Internet with thousands, tens of thousands of readers??)

"To bring her here is very difficult, so difficult and once she gets here she wants to still as a lawyer and that would mean for her to start over her career again and is an amount of money that we do not have. A year studying law ia around 28K and she may make as a paralegal probably 30K at the most. She would have to take all the paralegal courses and this last month was very bad for me so sofar I can not support her at all until I find a reliable job.

These last two months were very bad for me. The US system didn't help at all. I do not undertand why studying here is so expensive when in every other country is so cheap. "
(Maybe in every other country on earth where you pay as much to study, you earn well? Maybe in the countries where studying is cheap, like in your case in Venezuela, your salary is low as well, so you have about the same relation of cost of study per what you will earn?)

"Plan B? any other plan would be a disaster regarding the visas.

-She could get an O-1 visa like me. The O-1 is for "outstanding" in your carrer like a musician or in my case a Visual Artist. She could apply as an acterss but she does not have enough credits for it, I mean, there is nothing outstanding in what she does.

-There we would have students visas but she need and sponsor with the money equivalent of a year of studies + living expenses and I do not have that and she neither.

-Tourist visa: She could at list come oner every once in a while but the US embassy denied her a visa already and if she applies again and gets denied she would have to wait another year to apply to any other visa.

-Working visa: No way here in FL, Miami is full of lawyers and no one here would do that even for a family member.

-Marriage: We could get married now and she could get an O-3 visa right away as an spouse, but I am in the middle of the paper work to become a resident. If I add some one else to my list I would have to wait one and a half year to start again a proces that have been 4 years long already, but the actual problem is that I would have to have in cash in the bank the equivalent to 95 thousand dollars, equivalent to 3 times the pooverty line for 3 people (my mother, her and me) and we do not have that kind of money.

I mean, to bring her here I need 150.000$ in my bank account just because of the regulations.

Last night we went over everything nd she just got tired. She wanted me to go over but the cheepest plane ticket is $480 + taxes when it use to be $240 not too long ago (because of the gas pices).

I woke up this morning very quiet, like in standby, I just have to keep going with my things and that is it. Is not the hardest I had face any way but it suck big time. Life is demanding su much from me. I really thought in going back to Venezuela for a few months but the situation down there is caotic. The government is keeping all the mortages that fell in to their banks for the people to sing against chavez in the referendum. The government have all our names and is making a life a living hell. I have an apartment I want to sell and I can't because they are not releasing the the mortages since November of last year.

But I do not care about that now, I just do not understand certain things at this point."

Well. If life was as easy as some of us want it, there would be 150-400 million South Americans in USA, plus 50 + million Europeans more than there are actually.

So dream and keep on posting about your low profile.

All these poor Africans who have millions of dollars on their bank account, reside on a concentration camp, and have nothing better to do than...

If you just made it to the list below, congratulations. You have made me really hate you for continuously spamming me.

Let me tell you something. I get so dozens of emails of all these poor Africans who are in the concentration camps in some remote part of Africa, and where they have Internet connection... and they are all so stupid that despite having millions of dollars in their foreign bank account, they are still at the concentration camp, and have nothing better to do than to spam me.

If the African concentration camps really have Internet connection... guess what? Any African charity is not getting a dime of my money.

Guess what? I still really hate spam.

And if your spam is intended to be funny, there is no way you will ever beat the funniest spam of the world. Period.

And if you really are so f-ing stupid that you have millions of dollars of money, and you are on a concentration camp emailing people, you deserve to die, preventing the humankind of genes that may cause more morons like you.

So here a list of the email addresses connected from the return to and addresses you poor w-ers have given me as where to send more info.

If your name isn't on this list, feel more than free to subscribe these people anywhere you know they get spammed, and the spam harvesters like visiting.

Kahney - the Cult of Mac

Who doesn't know Leander Kahney, the Cult of Mac creator... Steve Jobs may have created the Macs, but Leander noticed the cult, and raised it to the knowledge of the 'common mortals', those not living in that cult, those not married to or living with Apple employees.

The Cult of Mac-book makes an amazing portrait of the Mac heads. Not just of those who are portrayed as with Mac hairdos, but of all the various aspects the love to the Macs can be, excluding only aspects why there are so many Apple couples, and what is it like to live with six people working for the fruit company in the same house... everything else is covered. And far better than anyone who was working for Steve would have been able to cover. Leander could have his objectivity, he didn't need to promote the company's agendas, he could love all of the aspects of the cult he wanted to, and have more in love and objective point to start with.

Some guys in Amazon reviews describe the book as Mac users love letter to themselves. The book is just beautiful. I would place it in the living room, would I not be afraid of it getting any stains... I can imagine how long to write that book and gather all that mateiral has taken. A full life, spent surrounded by Macs and Mac lovers. Mrs Kahney doesn't hopefully have a reason to feel anvious about the Mac love.
