I think that it shouldnt matter how much money you make. The idea that your past employer can dictate your future is abhorrent. Luckily i live in a state where they are un-enforcable. There is no place for non-competes in modern society, period. You dont get to own people or their minds. Hire people, get the work you need out of them and move on.
No, they do not. Its not the 'taxpayer's' money, it belongs to the citizenry at large. The citizenry at large bears the burden of financing the Republic through many different means. Sometimes that means using less, or producing more, its not always giving money
> the tax paying public that bears the burden - at least until a technology/solution is financially viable.
I think you mean the CITIZENRY. Paying taxes has no bearing on your ability to participate in governance. NEVER EVER refer to the citizenry as taxpayers, it shows that you only think of them as purses.
I think that companies rebrand all the time when it suits them, i dont see a problem forcing a re-brand after a set time to feed the Public Domain. I dont think common words like Apple or Windows should be allowed to be trademarked at all.
I think that trademarks need to be revisited. Its too much art to be denied the public domain. There should be an expiration for it, because it creates ugly scenarios where what the Public Domain gained is fuzzy at best. Mickey Mouse should be Public Domain in his entirety now. There is no public benefit to allowing eternal trademark.
Copyright is NOT supposed to be used to remove works from the public. It is exactly opposite of its express purpose, to feed the Public Domain. Attempting to deny the public access to the works should constitute a breach of contract and revocation of copyright, reverting hte work to eth Publi Domain where it rightfully belongs.
TL:DR - Copyright is a social bargain, creators should never be allowed to remove works, that breaks tho social contract, and all rights should be voided.
Holy revisionist history batman. iPhone was in no way first to market. They had a good product that changed the rules, but they in no way 'invented' the smartphone, regardless of popular perception.
No. No matter how much storage you put on the phone, you are still dealing with a device that can, at max, use 25 watts. Mobile is not going to replace workstations, ever.
I would. Apple is absolutely sitting on its hands. 200 Billion in the bank and doing NOTHING with it. They are WAY late to the VR/AR game and thier implementation so far is walled garden crap. Apple should have not let Facebook buy Oculus, that was a huge mistake.
I dont pay a fucking SLA for my gas line or electric service, I shouldn't have to have one for my data connection. The gas line to my house is sized for our needs, as is trunk that leads to my neighborhood, so should data be.
TL-DR: Every home in America should have been Fiber-to-the-Premisis 15 years ago.
This is why your idea is bad and you should feel bad for spouting such ignorance. Take this opportunity to enlighten yourself and maybe think a little before posting next time..
There is no reason films have to cost what they do now. The ENTIRE INDUSTRY is inflated and needs a serious knock back down to reality. There is literally no reason to spend $200 million to make one movie, ever. Dont even get me started on Hollywood accounting. look jack, because of your industry, copyright is absurdly long. We have NO LOVE FOR YOU. I hate copyright more than you hate piracy. Piracy is a check on your industry's rampant and abusive greed. The movie industry has done more damage to general computing than computing has done to Hollywood. You ROB THE PUBLIC DOMAIN.
Its as simple as this. The court cannot make a judgement on the contents of your brain. If you say you forgot your passcode, by the 5th Amendment, the court is absolutely bound to accept that as the end of it. They dont have to believe you, it doesnt matter, the law forbids them from punishing you for it. The express intent of the 5th is to prevent the court from pretending to be mind readers and then acting on it.
Why is the physical theater getting a cut? I would reject it on this principle alone. There is no reason to give the physical theater anything at all (other than they want their customers to pay for Parker's failure to negotiate a proper deal.) It is obvious that they have to give the theaters something and the tickets are the bone they threw back. Its like having a tax on cars to assuage buggy whip makers that it will all be ok.
I have always felt that DJI was way to eager to embrace regulations and exert factory control over the drones. Geofencing should be a warning, It should be up to the operator to proceed or not. No pilot would accept an airplane that simply refused to fly arbitrary places.
Because as much as people say they will use it, it is a SUPER niche thing that only a handful of people will ever implement. The only people that would want this are laptop owners that dont have a gaming laptop or gaming desktop but are gamers. Its not a something that will bring in new people to the market, it will only serve a tiny fraction of the existing market.
You are missing the philosophical issue that no matter how much proof you have, i still have to accept it as a belief because i did not experience it myself.

FRAND is 'voluntary' in that if you dont participate, you risk government sanction.
This. If intel could get their NUC price under $100, raspberry pi wouldnt be so attractive.
No. No matter how much storage you put on the phone, you are still dealing with a device that can, at max, use 25 watts. Mobile is not going to replace workstations, ever.
They have to get rid of the 'search the web if all else fails' fallback.

Thats pretty much common law, Juries are supposed to judge both the accused and the law itself. That is their exact function in our society.

' If rich old people are willing to pay for young blood, then some of that money can go to the donors. The market can solve this."
This screams 'i have never had any resources of my own, so its ok to just take someone else's'
You failed as a juror then. Citizens are supposed to judge the law itself as well. The judge will never tell you that, but its true.

Because this is how you raise an army of cyberpunks.
DO you even understand the word Liberty? Drones as a technology exist and can drop payloads. DJI sucking up to the government will never change that.
I have always felt that DJI was way to eager to embrace regulations and exert factory control over the drones. Geofencing should be a warning, It should be up to the operator to proceed or not. No pilot would accept an airplane that simply refused to fly arbitrary places.
