2GB of RAM hurts, but for $90 it's a decent productivity stick.

Dansk mediepolitik er desværre blevet til kulturpolitisk blokpolitik. Det handler ikke længere om faglige argumenter - fx. hvordan vi skaber bedre vilkår for branchen, men om brødnid og politiske mærkesager. Det mest oplagte bevis er nok denne nyhed, som jeg gerne skrev en kronik om, hvis jeg havde tid (=råd).

Et obligatorisk krav om login på dr.dk redder ikke økonomien hos dagbladene. Der er andre gratis nyhedssites (Avisen.dk, TV2.dk, mx.dk), og skulle der opstå et hul i markedet, så er markedet åbnet for en udenlandsk konkurrent. Der findes ikke noget mediemarked i verden, hvor der ikke findes gratis nyheder.

Derudover er hele ideen om at udrydde "gratis nyheder" er i konflikt med citatretten. Det er det grundprincip, der betyder, at blot fordi et medie har gravet en nyhed op, så har de - af samfundshensyn - ikke monopol på den. Men der er selvfølgelig grænser for citatlængden, og de danske medier har internt aftalt spilleregler for, hvor meget man må citere fra hinandens nyheder, og de regler har DR tilsluttet sig.

Resultatet af dette pres fra dagbladene er højest, at DR får sværere ved at få nyhederne ud til de danskere, der har betalt licens. Samtidigt svækker det DRs mulighed for at være i kontakt med danskerne, og dermed muligheden for at skabe public service indhold og debat sammen med danskerne.

Dagbladenes uendelige kamp mod de nye digitale medier har stået på i nok 15 år. Det begyndte med at dagbladene forbød "dybe links" direkte til deres artikler - som det eneste sted i verden. Senere har de med held gjort det svært at finde nyheder på DRs regionale sider. Og nu skal man så logge ind for at læse gratis nyheder - blot fordi login er noget man bruger på betalingssites. Ingen faglig grund - blot fordi...

DR dominerer ikke markedet for netnyheder sådan som det påståes. Danskerne læser færre artikler på dr.dk end de gør hos mediehusene JP/Politikens Hus og Berlingske. Men DR har arbejdet fokuseret med medieudvikling i mange år, og er derfor i stand til at levere et rimeligt public service alternativ på nye medier.

Det er vel derfor vi betaler licens.

Minister presser DR til at indføre login på netmedier

DR skal gøre det mere besværligt for danskerne at bruge licensbetalte netmedier for dermed at gøre det nemmere for private medier at drive forretning på

It might seem outrageous to suggest that a Nato member like Turkey would in any way support an organisation that murders western civilians in cold blood. That would be like a Nato member supporting al-Qaida. But in fact there is reason to believe that Erdoğan’s government does support the Syrian branch of al-Qaida (Jabhat al-Nusra) too, along with any number of other rebel groups that share its conservative Islamist ideology. The Institute for the Study of Human Rights at Columbia University has compiled a long list of evidence of Turkish support for Isis in Syria.

Turkey could cut off Islamic State’s supply lines. So why doesn’t it? | David Graeber

Western leaders could destroy Islamic State by calling on Erdoğan to end his attacks on Kurdish forces in Syria and Turkey and allow them to fight Isis on the ground

"We shall prove ourselves once more able to defend our island home, to ride out the storm of war, and to outlive the menace of tyranny, if necessary for years, if necessary alone [...]

Even though large tracts of Europe and many old and famous States have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Gestapo and all the odious apparatus of Nazi rule, we shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender"

"Sunday, November 8 marks the 120th anniversary of one of the greatest moments in the history of science: an obscure German physics professor’s discovery of the X-ray. His name was Wilhelm Roentgen, and in the six weeks that followed, he devoted nearly every waking hour to exploring the properties of the new rays before announcing his discovery to the world. Within just months, scientists worldwide were experimenting with the newly discovered rays. Roentgen’s discovery and its subsequent revolutionary impact represent one of science’s greatest stories.

[...]

Despite the urging of friends and colleagues who wanted him to grow rich from his discovery, Roentgen refused to file a patent application and even donated the entire monetary component of his Nobel Prize (the equivalent today of US$1.2 million) to his university. He firmly believed that such discoveries are the property of all mankind. When Roentgen died in 1923, he had fallen into penury, his savings consumed by post-World War I inflation."
