I see the degree, raise you a peer-review process, and disagree with the GP. I think that licensing (or some other vetting) is a very good thing when you need an assurance of performance - especially if there is a risk that poor performers will crowd out good ones. Licensed engineers, licensed contractors, and licensed truck drivers are all very good things, in my mind. (Despite the fact that they could be underbid by unlicensed alternatives.)
I should look into copyrighting my house. Maybe I'll paint text all over it, and then copyright that.
I must be missing something here, cause I don't get it!
If there were a picture of my house in your personal photo albums, I would find that very weird. If I found you outside my house taking pictures of it from the street, I would feel vaguely threatened and would want to know what your motives were. If you told me that you were going to post them to make money and asserted your right to stand there taking pictures of my house, I would probably call the cops.
No, but fun is what they do best, and it's what I go to games for. Books or movies are better for storytelling. I enjoyed the Final Fantasy games that I played, but honestly now: Would you tolerate that kind of a plot in a book or a movie?
Unfortunately, as far as I can see, the only part of America which doesn't seem to have a definite opinion yet is the White House - and that's the most crucial opinion of all.
We're supposedly due to hear more about that sometime around the end of the month.
One could argue that those scientists not driven by the quest for grant money are more credible. But those are easily shot down by propagandists as funded by "greed" and "big business".
the current authors say that every line that Bruce contributed to BusyBox has now been replaced by newer code; but he argues that because some of the code in the offending devices is actually based off older BusyBox code, he should actually be represented in the lawsuit.
What I don't understand is why natural disasters should have been mitigated by technology. There are certain areas of the country that are susceptible to certain disasters. They wouldn't blame a construction firm when a tornado rips apart a building in the Midwest. They wouldn't blame the fire department when fires are engulfing a city.
They might blame a engineering or construction firm if an earthquake topples a building in San Francisco, and that building wasn't built to code. Engineering and construction firms might likewise share blame for a particularly bad hotel fire. In this case, the COE built the levees - but I have to think that the real responsibility falls on whoever was setting their budget.
And why exactly shouldn't you be allowed to do this? Your business won't last long -- the community will see to that -- so why do we need the Government to force you to let blacks into your business when the marketplace will see to it that you don't have a business for very long?
Wow. You might want to read up a little on the history of civil rights in the United States. Your faith in "the marketplace" is cute.

O2 from electrolysis of water, powered by solar?
something like that.
I see, did they ask the Google to take down the photos and Google refused to comply or something?
"Officer, any time I'm speeding, you just let me know and I'll stop doing it, OK? I'm happy to comply."

In the meantime, we've had an agreement in place for dealing with each other in space since 1967, aka The Outer Space Treaty
Games don't have to lack a story to be fun.

Miller faced 45 shots on goal, and Brodeur faced 22. That's an impressive performance out of Miller, and a disappointing one out of Brodeur.

Thread over in one, good job.
You'd have to be some sort of a Nazi to disagree.
Also Assassins Creed's usual running, jumping and climbing in a large city would make a great races with other players.
Oh good. Let's take the most irritating part of the game, and add a 13 year old with a headset.
My question: Why do so many people with liberal arts degrees write articles about this?
At least he did it his way.
Just piling on the funny.

This message brought to you by ExxonMobil.
Plus, the Wiimotes are already safe for use around the general public, which must make your safety review a little smoother.

Ship of Theseus?
How do they know if this thing actually works?
Especially if no one has actually *seen* Keyser Soze. And like that, poof. He's gone.

correlation is not causation
Nope, but it's a safe bet.
This isn't on the plains of Spain, is it?
Hmm, this is an interesting concept. However, to carry it to its natural extreme.... what then would we do with Microsoft?
What would we do with Slashdot?
Broadband access, of course. I'd imagine that narrowly edged out security, stability, access to medical care, and clean drinking water.
The guiding principles of western democracies are Liberté, égalité, and fraternité.
Seriously. Fast-forward twenty years, and this will just be another topic in a civil rights class.

for cities less than 100 miles away, it's definitely quicker than taking a plane
I should certainly hope so. Would you seriously even consider a plane for a 100 mile trip?
