If you mean that both parties use hyperbole then, yes; however, I believe that climate change really is real, and likewise I strongly suspect that there truly are people out there, in this wacky world who would/will use terrorism against us...
yeah, right after I replied, I thought of surface tension at that tiny size, being dominant!
Still, it might be fun to shake it really hard & see what happens:)
making it work required rotating smoothed oil film past the projection station...
Made me wonder-can this new display be vertical? Wouldn't the oil separate to the top, exposing water on the bottom (fine for horizontal use)?
The artist _encourages_ them to download the work hence, no stealing. The _encouragement_ is why the potential customer downloads the song(s), to see(hear) if they like the song(s). Like the toothpick ladies at the supermarket: Very few people buy what they sampled from the tray, but enough do, and perhaps become acclimated to the product. It's a gamble.
Another way of looking at this, is that the people who download the music aren't going to buy it anyway, so why not encourage them to download your brother's music; over time, they may develop a strong preference for his music, & reward him later. If some of them don't, you haven't really lost anything. Or your brother and his musical peers could set up a streaming co-op say, with hundreds of titles & then pepper modest amounts of advertising every 15 minutes or so. A lot of people are accustomed to internet radio: If it goes the way of the dodo, these indie artists may well be the ones to fill (& perhaps satisfy) the demands of an existing audience. Tell your brother to keep plugging away!:)
"I see this all the time with idiot cashiers who can't make change, and have to look up what the correct change is for something that costs $19.27 after I give them $20.02." Easy. I would just hand you your two pennies back, then give you your 73 dollars in change...
"with a percentage going to the person who provided the song." Yeah-who gets paid? The article seemed a little vague; does the uploader get paid? The artist? The original years past uploader from Gnutella? What if the id3 tag contains erroneous information, do they use an algorithm to identify the artist, or does the RIAA do that?
What about PD recordings?
Thanks! I especially enjoyed watching several registers clear in summing cascade,ie from 31 to 32, & 63 back to 0; a visceral way to explain the math to some aspiring student.
Interesting-I remember back in the 80's, reading a Scientific American article about using ropes, knots,& pulleys to create AND, OR, NAND etc. gates. At the end of the article, this idea was proffered: could an assembly of ropes and knots, in motion, create a sentient, intelligent life form? Sorry that I can't remember the issue- I'd like to read it again!
Thanks for the link - after doing the cross-eyed thing (I left my anaglyph glasses at home, with my old SI Swimsuit Issue...), the resulting image clearly looks like a greyish silt, as mentioned by others (uh-why do I have two keyboards?).
A little more searching at http://physorg.com/ reveals the tech works on using coupled resonanance--it seems the non-radiative magnetic field remains largely bound to the transmitter, unless it interfaces with the receiver. There was a mention of room-size distances still being sufficient to power a laptop.
I believe(?)the inverse square function would be in play - twice as far away, the field diverges four times as much; 3 times as far, 9 times the spread,etc. This would affect efficiency & distance, unless you had a large collector/rectenna.

Ha! I remember this issue well (A jet starter motor? Sounded sexy at the time!). Thanks for the link!
It's no use-It's creators all the way down.
Yes-if you can simulate it on the holodeck.

Agreed-now he's living in some place called Eureka, & he really is dicking with the weather!

And when upper management found out about all this, I'll bet they pooped their daipies (one-sixth?).
...and I've noticed a lot of MySpace references "worked into" various television scripts-cahoots or buzz scripting?

Hopefully this will still work.

Yeah, that's one long service call.
