Stay up till 4am Fri doing anything you can consider play and not even close
to that nasty "work" word. Call up a friend and play a scrabble marathon for
example.... for drinks :)
Then sleep only getting up long enough to eat,
answer nature, and head back to sleep till Sun evening.
Have a good
rest!

By all means, get some sleep . . . relax and notice that Spring is coming

Take the whole next week off, please, Pamela. I'd hope that by now you have an
efficient, tight cadre of loyal Groklaw myrmidons watching over the comments,
winnowing News Picks.
Do take a break, please. Then come back as bright eyed and bushy tailed as ever,
and we'll kick it all up some more.

Despite PJ's hiatus, I'd like to make a comment on the Hotz case. If I were one
of Hotz' attorneys, I would find myself compelled to write something like:
"Dear Judge,
Although the TRO and impoundment order demand that my client cease further
work on his PS3 activities, asking for his computer to be searched and
'circumvention devices' to be removed is an impossible task.
The issue is confused by the language of the DMCA whereby a computer program
can be considered a 'device.' In this particular case, there are no
hardware-based or physical devices that can be removed from my client's
possession.
In this case, the 'circumvention devices' are computer programs designed,
written, and tested by my client from his own knowledge. These are his own
creative works. Even IF all copies of these works are removed from him, he
could easily re-create them based on his own knowledge."
Comments, anyone?

This is kind of skirting the edge. I know PJ doesn't like Political posts. This
isn't directly political. We are having an election in Canada. This killed the
current 'copyright reform' bill which was in committee.
The President of Warner Music, Steve Kane, publicly said, "We can't do
anything until after the election," not knowing that I'd already done
something.
For the Canadians that are here, who use copyright, and who are independent
(i.e. aren't employed by a company to produce copyrighted works), I've set up a
website called Copyright for Artists to discuss what we want, not what the
companies want.
I haven't finalized the setup yet due to some family issues that have eaten up
my time, but it will be up and running tomorrow.
As I said, this is for independents. I saw what was going on in the Balanced
Copyright Facebook Group, which was as fine an example of astroturfing as you
could want (and boy did they get upset when I started calling them out on that
by naming company affiliations...) So I thought it would be a good idea to try
and get us independents together, and discuss what would work for us, and hand
it to the new government. I have a strong suspicion that it wouldn't match what
the CRIA/RIAA/MPAA/BSA/WIPO wants.

Lots of errors?
I'm guessing that someone needs to patch the PJ operating system. Apparently
someone coded a nanosleep() where there should have been a sleep(). If that
doesn't help, check for excessive recent invocation of wine.
On a more serious note, a weekend off (repeated as needed) sounds like long
overdue medicine whose side effects are usually wonderful and do not require
simple liver tests. Hopefully that's the only type of treatment needed to
encourage a full recovery.
