I wonder if you would sing the same tune if someone found an RTG from a failed satellite launch/reentry. The United states never relinquished ownership of the rock to anyone, merely loaned it. If I loan you my car and you park it somewhere with the keys in it and someone else finds it, they arent entitled to keep it , even if found in a junk yard.
All moon rocks brought back by the US lunar missions are easily identifiable from lunar meteorites. There is no question of its origin or ownership. It rightfully belongs to the United States, regardless of who possess it now.
The knock against torture is that its plainly cruel and unusual punishment. ITs also a complete subversion of due process. Any US citizen caught torturing another human being should be summarily executed. (see i can subvert due process too.......)
No it is not! You have NO WAY of knowing if the passphrase ITSELF is incriminating evidence or not. The endgame to your argument would be this
Police: where is the gun you used to kill those 3 people?
You: what gun? i humbly plead the 5th and ask for a lawyer.
Police: tell us or we lock you up for contempt.
How do you know that the passphrase itself isn't incriminating? IT could very well be "Howispentmysummerkillingpeopleforfunandprofit" Compelling someone to divulge that IS a violation of the 5th.
All it takes for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing. If Obama hasnt stopped it and charged the former administration then he is just as culpable for continuing it. Ford was just as guilty as Nixon for pardoning him.
You dont know that the safe combination itself is non-incriminating, thats an assumption. Alot of safes have self setting combinations, what if i set my combo to be my decryption password??? And to be clear, no one can be FORCED, they can only be asked. Have we forgotten about 'the right to remain silent'?
No, he can ask, he cannot compel. He can issue a lawful order to enter your passcode and you can utterly and completely ignore him. Also, he cannot compel you to open a safe, he can ask. If you refuse he cannot MAKE you do it, thye have to cut open the safe.
There are plenty of laws preventing you from going through and stealing garbage, especially on private property. Designated for trash does not automatically mean its free for all.
yes, that is theft. Your argument holds no legal water. Taking newsprint from the recycling bin improperly takes material NOT INTENDED FOR YOU. Its not your property, dont fucking touch it. how hard is that? And I call the cops at least once a month to kick the homeless and other low lives out of our community garbage bins taking the bottles and cans. It is theft and trespass. That garbage belongs to our hauling company and us, not any third party.
To be clear the main reason we do that is that i get sick of having to shred my mail because the homeless are going through my trash.
It doesnt matter the state of the garbage. All moon rocks recovered by the United States are legally considered property of the citizens of the United States. He has no claim to it, regardless of where or how it was found. If it is a lunar meteorite, that is another story altogether. If this rock can be proven to have been acquired through NASA, he has no chance.
Every fuckin day i get the 'Got Vape' ad for weeks since i checked out their website. I've wondered if I buy one, and register it, will they stop presenting me with the ads?
Try calling about hotmail and see how far you get... My LiveID on windows isnt accepting my password anymore, but my Xbox will happily sign on with the same credentials. Hotmails solution is a ticket-in-forum weirdness that asks a bunch of questions that i really dont know that answer to because i only ever use that account because MS requires it for LIVE.
Just shut your pie hole. And for your information I had already had already owned a 64 MB MP3 player that was expensive as hell and had already died. MiniDisc looked like an economical way to have ALOT of music. It wasnt until after the purchase you find out EVERYTHING had to be converted. At the time of purchase it honestly never occurred to me I would have to convert to Sony's proprietary system. They did their best to make it look like it would hold MP3s on the packaging. Until that time Sony was loved and was a point of pride to have a nice Sony TV/equipment.
Fine, name one non-deprecated media format that DOESNT have recordable media. For the record, Vinyl was a step back in this regard, as the wax cylinders that preceded them were user-recordable. They traded the ability to record for durability.(and other considerations)
You do a lot of name calling and tongue lashing, but not a whole lot of analysis or rebuttal. Most of your post is simple trolling and selective reading. How about you provide a reasoned argument.
Microsoft certainly did NOT see the error. The same HDMI handshake bullshit that was in Vista is in Win7. GO ahead and play a DVD on Win 7 without a full HDMI path and watch Win 7 purposefully output a blocky picture. Microsoft also fucked with the audio mixing so it makes it alot harder to mix streams (to appease the RIAA which also breaks games like Bioshock and CoD4 that cant be launched without a mic attached now.)
Mini-Disc wasnt a total failure, it did enjoy wide adoption in certain regions. The main problem was Sony trying ot be Sony and hold the reins of technology too tight.

And you are right to a degree. That doesnt change my ire for the people i see as directly responsible.
I dont know, ask my neighbors (i live in a condo complex with community dumpsters)

You cannot be held for life in the USA. Dont be retarded. The longest term ever was 14 years, and honestly the judge should be shot for it.

Things change. Im sure that Crytek thought they would still be on Steam.

"Stop right where you are! You know the score, pal. You're not cop, you're little people!"
Very few models could do that , and it wasnt until much later in the game, long after Iomega came onto the scene.

128 MB-2GB USB sticks from China are SUPER CHEAP. Cheaper then floppies were back in the day. We give these away to clients all the time. http://www.epromos.com/promotional-usb-flash-drives/_/N-13820+4294959514
UMD wasnt a terrible idea, it was that Sony never let us make burn our own discs. Name one popular media format that DOESNT have recordable media.
