Which is really stupid, when you think about it. If you upload 0.1% of a file to 1,000 different peers, that's one copy shared, not 1,000. And if they all do the same (within the group) that's 1,000 copies created, not 1,000,000. But the studios manage to get away with suing 1,000 peers for 1,000 copies each, which is far more than the potential revenues even if one very generously assumes that every peer who obtains a copy of the file represents a lost sale, even before you throw in nonsense like statutory damages.
The correct liability for a single peer with a share ratio of 1.00 or less (cumulative upload less than or equal to the file size) is no more than perhaps three times the standard retail value of the work. Not $450 or $1,500 or $150,000 or $21M, no matter how many other peers were involved.
and you are absolutely correct,spot on , accurate and reasonable in what you say.... now tell me.. when did that get in the way of the copyright industry's legal stance? they are of course gonna try and hump you for every cent they have... this is a new side industry for them that rakes in millions.
and THERE we have it from Cederic! the unionist bilge and spite pouring out!
t was just a matter of time before someone came and spaffed over the keyboard with their hate..lol
As fro Sturgeon being scared? why would that be? are you sure? really sure? because you know... she/they may well be putting together a sound legal case instead of, much like yourself... opening the mouth and letting the belly rumble
The SNP have more representation in Westminster per vote than any other party. Maybe more than every other party ever.
So no, getting more votes in Scotland than everybody else counts for fuck all. It's still not democratic.
it's not democratic??? Cederic.. I am fairly sure they are the only party, expecially of those with any power in the whole of these islands with a positive approval rating, the won 56 out of 59 seats in West and are the govt.. again.. third term in Scotland with the majority of elected representatives there being SNP.
Now you can spit and froth and foam but that doesn't change a thing.
as for losing the vote?.. yup, we did and it was close.. VERY close 45 to 55% BUT.. here the thing.... especially with the fact that ALL the promises made by the note no side(extra powers yadda yadda yadda for Scotland by November 2015)... well NONE appeared by November 2015 and a lot of people are not very happy about that and they are not due for some time yet.. then there's the DEMOCRATIC deficit which has been shown time and time again..... even though Scotland voted solidly to stay in the EU.. England are dragging us out of it. and that actually does bring us to democratic deficit.. whereby it really doesn't matter what way Scotland votes or Ireland or Wales....the sheer numbers England has compared to Scotland etc means the what England votes happens really...
Now as for her being scared... really? She appeared on TV and said straight that she and the ministerial team were fully investivating all possibilities including a fresh Independence referendum and.. they legal team especially are still investigating, dotting the I's and crossing the T's as it's a very complex constitutional issue and with their Westminster and Holyrood mandate which you so kindly acknowledge yet dismiss in the same breathe.. however thee plans take time to fully prepare but no... according to you she is crapping herself at the thought.... eh.. hardly....
It just seems to me you are a bitter little man who just doesn't like or acknowledge the SNP and it's achievements.. such as being the only party EVER to get a majority govt at Holyrood where the system was designed to create coalitions and they actually got a majority. again and again...
just bitter anyway.. because they are MASSIVELY AHEAD of the greens , and i mean massively.. you claimed that the SNP were behond the greens....... erm.. Greens have 1,yes just ONE seat at Westminster... and the SNP..... 56... so how are the greens bigger? The greens have 6 MSP's in Scotland and the SNP... oh yeah they are the Scottish Govt and majority party, so without having any candidates sit outside Scotland they are bigger than the greens by a country mile and I mean MILE,. So you see Cederic.. you're just fuull of hatred, blatant hatred for Sturgeon and the SNP and at a guess Scotland too by extension.
next point please caller!
Well, sure, but if everyone did this the whole torrent system would completely collapse. So, if they make uploading illegal, and actually manage to really catch people doing it on a large scale, then there won't be any torrents left.
The legal situation in Scotland where i am and also in England coincide here(We have separate and distinct legal systems). It IS already illegal to upload as it's the sharing part that's getting you into trouble for distribution.. the distribution part being key to their case as X IP numbers connected = amount of shares = money lost according to the studio and their agencies.
BUT downloading it.. perfectly fine and not illegal. this is also why many streaming sites like Http://movies.ru and it's other addresses are so popular here too. for the end user they are a win win as the distribution is being done before it touches them and they aren't sharing it so it's legal and the onus for the law breaking falls to the website... simple bud
Torrents upload. People have been punished for that, I believe.
and as long as you are using a torrent that let's you Freeleach then it's all fine NOT to upload.. you can limit the bandwidth you upload tight down to 0 on a decent client. Your argument only works when you are getting torrents from sites that worry about tracker ratios and by far not all do.
Our third party self destructed a couple of years ago and our second party is in process of self destruction.
England's main parties you mean.. in Scotland the Scottish National Party is first by several country miles in terms of both Westminster and Holyrood elected representatives numbers.
Snowden's layer at the ACLU, Ben Wizner, told Fusion. "Those people will emerge from the movie more education about surveillance and with more positive attitudes toward Snowden."
wow.. would that mean "more educated about surveillance".. shame that lawyer wasn't more educated in grammar!
tell that to the City environment guys who shut us down quicker than Milo Yiannopolis shuts down a 3rd wave feminist!
As I also mentioned... those same plague pits were also commonly used to typhus outbreak,smallpox, anthrax and any other mass lergy that happened.. everyone went into mass graves.
Please feel free to phone the City of Edinburgh council Environment Dept to argue it out if you like.. +44 (0)131-200-2000 and ask them if it's ok to dig any areas of any of the plague pits in the city....:-)
At what point are we allowed to dig up graves?
After 100 years? 200 years?
There are some massive cemeteries near me on land that could be repurposed rather than wasted.
re-purpose them?
that's some serious bollocks.. Here in Edinburgh, Scotland we STILL have "plague pits" as does EVERY town and city in Scotland.
looking at Edinburgh you will see strange wee strips of land around the town and suburbs which are free ffrom housing and usually turned into gardens and fenced off.
dog down far enough and you'll hit bone, lots of bone from dead people who died of the plague.
These are NOT and never ill be dug up because....THE PLAGUE CAN LIE DORMANT FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS and when you disturb that mass grave you are in for mass trouble.
They also used plague pits for Typhus and anthrax outbreak victims.. basically any mass lergy and you ended up in a plague pit when you died. so these areas are NEVER and will NEVER be built upon. BTW it takes a special kind of cocksucker to want to dug up a grave, move bodies and build upon a grave site.
So what he's saying is that Trump is trying to pull a Brexit.
From what I understand about brexit none of them really expected they would win and when they did win everyone was like oh well we didn't really mean any of the things we said we were just trying to keep any third party from winning.
erm.. there was no third party/side in brexit.. it was in or out.. no third option.. thus the analogy is pretty damned abysmal
64 gig? I find that surprising. Samsung has had 64g for years.
So did iPhone 4s. Apple came out with iPhone 4s at the starting of the 4th quarter in 2011. Samsung came out with 64GB model -- Galaxy S III -- in May 2012. All before that, more storage spaces (up to 32GB at the time) on Sumsung phone are from external/removable, not built-in. Back in 2011, you should be surprised by 64GB storage space on a cellphone (and it was very expensive to get that kind of storage size on a phone).
If you really want to make that silly comment, please get the fact straight first (and then there wouldn't be such this kind of comment).
And Samsung you are able to expand it with a TF card.. can you do that with apple? if you want to leave a comment that laves you open to being laughed at for your non expandable fruity cupertino company
. Windows 10 Home - no (easy) options to suppress automatic updates. Hrray for progress. They killed the Atom based Netbook / Nettop generation of PCs with updates to XP, too.
MS have a tool for that bud you can download from the ms linky.. just run it to show/hide updates
To temporarily prevent the driver from being reinstalled until a new driver fix is available, a troubleshooter is available that provides a user interface to hide and show Windows updates and drivers for Windows 10.
Not enough to meet the needs of the entire UK. It depends on your definition of massive, I suppose. Depending only on wind for any significant future generation additions is simply not practical.
Ah.. I see you assume I was referring to the UK as a whole while i mentioned ONLY SCOTLAND... while necessity may well be the mother of invention, presumption is the mother of fuck ups
Scotland , being a constituent country of the UK,for Scotland and the surplus renewables get "exported" to.. ENGLAND...around 24% of it.
If England wants to do the same, i suggest that you build more wind farms like we did.
The UK is mostly in a poor region for solar so that is not really an option, and wind performance isn't exactly spectacular. They would have to install massive amounts of offshore wind overcapacity to significantly reduce carbon production, which would be even more expensive. Their options are limited.
um... they are installing massive amounts of wind generation.Both on and off shore. that's a climbdown and a half there pal..LOL.. there's already masses of them and masses more coming....thus your points are rather moot
The UK is mostly in a poor region for solar so that is not really an option, and wind performance isn't exactly spectacular.

oh.. so please.. tell my why it is that 57.7 per cent of Scotland's electricity came from renewables in 2015? Do you think it' because Scotland does rather well with shitloads of offshore and wind generation?.. I know it is.. try researching before opening your mouth and letting your belly rumble. we currently use the following...
Hydro-electric power
Wind power
Wave power

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... and behold the plethora of renewable stuff that gives us more than half our energy needs in Scotland... so tell me... how does it feel to be someone who could not be more wrong if your name was W . Wrongy Wrongenstien???
And how much is solar and wind, the two items I was speaking to? Solar barely registers on the scale, wind is the only growing sector, that is why I spoke of it.
There are SHITELOADS and i mean SHITELOADS of wind generation in Scotland... We have an abundance of shite weather and wind to spin those puppies..LOL.. solar.. i'll grant you that. not so much but there are those who have them on their roofs. Wind farms.. seriously.. if you even just have a drive from Edinburgh to glasgow.. glasgow to Ayr or anywhere to anywhere here you will find a veritable fuck-ton of wind generation both on and offshore(for offshore see Donald Trump's pissy fit over the fact there's a rather big one that's expanding in Menie where he tried to take the Scottish Govt to court and lost... lost...lost. http://www.express.co.uk/news/.....
the below report from 2015(capacity has expanded since then...)
The country now has 2,683 wind turbines capable of generating 5,115MW of electricity, although there are 282 more under construction and a further 2,202 with planning consent.
Once they are all operational, Scotland will have an installed wind power capacity of 12,769MW - the sixth highest in the world behind China, the USA, Germany, Spain and India.
It would also result in the world's highest density of wind power capacity, with 163MW for every 1,000km2.

4 Community ownership of wind farms
so tell me... plus there the other renewables and smaller wind farms and an assload of farmers who have two to three turbines on their land as it generates extra income and gets them free electricity........ Sir.. I call you on on your BS!
Not these lies again? 87% of Scotland's power usage was from coal and oil, most of which was imported. Do some research yourself next time. Even the Krankie backtracked on her former disinformation campaign once she was pulled up on it.
Like almost everything to do with Scotland, it needs external help to operate day to day.
LOL.. just by calling the First minister "Krankie" you show your absolute bias against her party and thus negates your statement.
how about you back up your claims with some verifiable links? if not... GET IT RIGHT UP YOU!:-) back it up or blow it out yer rectum pal
power outages? only in storms or some such.. sorry bud but apart from the 1970's when strikes hit and there was a 3 day week... no power outages here apart from after storms etc. to say it's a shortage of generating power is is just plain bullshit and you made it up... Fairlytale? 57.7% of power generated for Scotland was renewable and we even exported some 24%..
As for paying several times the price? you are a fucking idiot pal, i pay quite cheap rates with my electricity supplier and it's mostly renewable ( www.ovoenergy.com ) not because i am all green and that but because IT'S FUCKING CHEAPER AND I WANT TO SAVE MONEY!
same reason i used energy saving light bulbs.. it's cheaper on my pocket
You sir are full of shit!

The old TV detector vans were a hoax to scare people into getting a TV licence. Enforcement was actually done by visiting addresses with no record of a licence. This is another con.
yup. My uncle worked for TV Licensing for about 6 months back in 1985/6 and he showed us the inside of the back of the van....... fuck all there.
Also they cannot come in if you don't let them. Just tell them if they come to the door.. "I hereby remove your implied right of entry"... even if they come with the police... you can refuse them entry successfully... https://www.youtube.com/watch?... if guys as dense as these two can verbally fend off TV licensing with police armed with a warrant.
I haven't paid for a TV licence since... well i never have. MY parents did but not me. i never really watch live TV with the exception of news but i find that i do that less as you can get better and faster updates from online.
I don't even have an antenna/cable box etc hooked up. As for their wireless sniffing.... best of luck with that.. I have wired up my home with ethernet and the only wireless clients are phones.

Well, nationally too. The SNP don't make it into fourth place nationally. They're barely ahead of the Green party ffs.
the changes at Holyrood kinda makes a point that image eh?
2010 's Westminster seats in Scotland
and after the 2015 election the electoral map looked like this
Also... just ahead of the greens?.. quite an achievement considering they only stand for election in Scottish seats and have no need or interest in campaigning in English/Welsh or Irish seats. They have the votes of the vast majority of Scots but i suppose that doesn't count as if it's of any importance eh?

My uncle worked for TV Licensing for about 6 months back in 1985/6 and he showed us the inside of the back of the van....... fuck all there. ... even if they come with the police... you can refuse them entry successfully... https://www.youtube.com/watch?... if guys as dense as these two can verbally fend off TV licensing with police armed with a warrant.
Also they cannot come in if you don't let them. Just tell them if they come to the door.. "I hereby remove your implied right of entry"
I haven't paid for a TV licence since... well i never have. MY parents did but not me. i never really watch live TV with the exception of news but i find that i do that less as you can get better and faster updates from online. I don't even have an antenna/cable box etc hooked up. As for their wireless sniffing.... best of luck with that.. I have wired up my home with ethernet and the only wireless clients are phones.
