Should I get a license to sing "Happy Birthday to You" from Warner Chappell? I guess I will, just to be safe...

One of the biggest problems that I see is that deletionism on Wikipedia is spreading like a plague. New contributors often get burned by a "notability" deletion - whether justifiable or not - and then they themselves turn into deletionists. It's even happening in the comments above - people are annoyed that web comics are being deleted, so they take it out on other subjects they deem less notable than their favorite subject - porn stars and video game characters in this case. Such users then think it is acceptable to vote delete on 20 or 30 afd debates in a row by just parroting whatever the guy above them said, and the cycle of death continues.
If anyone has any specific articles they want an admin to take a second look at and help get through the deletion review process, reply here and I'll take a look.
That's alright. Any human problems that develop can be fixed with more chromosomes! I'm sure Chromatin would be more than willing to apply this technology to humans... for a price.
Of course this is me in this webcam! Huh, you think it's odd that I'm erotically stripping? That's what I always do! I can prove that this is really me - see, I just put a shoe on my head!
My knowledge of copyright judgments in the US is lacking, but doesn't the plaintiff usually need to register the work with the copyright office in order to get punitive damages? The problem with most projects like this is that 1) they don't register with the copyright office and 2) they have no case for ''compensatory'' damages.
I've never been to Statsaholic until just a few minutes ago. There's nothing good about this site at all. I guess it might have been relatively better than Alexa before the Alexa redesign a few months back, but now it seems to be pretty broken.
If a chick came up to me in real life and said, "HEY BABY CUM CHECK OUT MY WEBCAM," I'd definitely be more persuaded.
However, I don't think anybody could convince me that I need to enlarge 4 to 6 cm. My penis is just fine right now.
It worked for me (Firefox 1.5.0.9, XP), but I had to retype it a few times as it didn't always detect the keystrokes. Though, I'm sure there are many ways to implement this type of attack. Hopefully the devs won't just patch this particular vector.

A person who claims to have worked on the Kane & Lynch ads made a post on Forumopolis.

They were originally going to fine the US $1 million, but were informed that this was not much money at all.
The number of edits to Wikipedia has actually tripled in the last six months!

The Back of the Book Theorem. Good luck!
I am sad :(
So taking a 5-second clip of Dragon Ball Z and changing the play speed to create a 5-minute masterpiece is fair use, right?

They've removed more stuff than just Ubuntu from the Marketplace site. The entire Driver Downloads category (and all contents?) is gone now:
