Copyright reform bill to get review -- CBC News

bugeyedbistro:

A ruling by U.S. regulators that allows Americans to break certain digital locks on content and devices may throw a wrench into the Canadian government’s plan to reform copyright law.

It’s hard for Clement to argue that the new copyright regulation aligns Canada with international standards when the proposed bill is more restrictive than U.S. copyright law.

Running virtual machines on your Mac for free with VirtualBox

tuckuhhh:

ugh does anyone have a good virtual desktop program such as vmware fusion 3.1 that i can get for free i really want it because i want to play maplestory so fucking badly but i really do NOT want to install bootcamp on my computer

Hello Tumblr stranger.

I don’t work for them, and am no expert, but you can run virtual machines on your Mac for free with Virtualbox.  Virtualbox is open source, and has both pay and free versions. I take it you want to run a Windows guest on your Mac?

You can do this with Virtualbox, no problem. Finding a Windows license is of course a separate issue from the virtualization program step. It sounds like you have that covered though.
