Better yet, let them install solitaire. 'Can't play solitaire' is not a motivator for getting work done. It's a motivator for staring at a blank screen as the mind wanders a thousand miles away and hating your job.
At the end of your life, it is the experiences you've accumulated that matter, not the money; that's only a means to an end.
Nay friend, the experiences you've accumulated die with you. It's what you leave behind that matters in the end. The pyramids you've built. The munchkins you've raised. The books you've written.
When your business model requires restrictions on the exchange of FACTS you need to find a new business model. Maybe next we should start allowing patents on math too. Oh wait, we have that already, it's called software.
Exactly, the nerve of those post office jerks! Charging more for Express mail and priority mail than first class mail. Giving preferred treatment to those elitist Fedex users. They're reducing competition by creating barriers to entry. Ultimately this just leads to higher shipping cost for consumers.
I think it's much more important to consider what is more useful to the students. If there are 2 tools that do basically the same thing, is it more useful to the students to learn how to use the free tool or the proprietary tool?
I think there is some merit in your argument, but how do you reconcile attribution rights with derivative works? What happens when an artist is inspired by a story when he doesn't remember where he heard the original? Is he obliged to search out the source of his inspiration before he can publish his work? What if he is unable to find it? What if he doesn't consciously know what it was that inspired him? What if by pure coincidence his story resembles some other story that he's never even heard of? Will he be liable for infringement? Will he have to pay tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees in order to be found not liable? When do my thoughts become my own, not merely echoes of the voices in my past?
Except that technically he wouldn't be selling the same thing over and over, he would be selling copies of the thing, so each sale requires the creation of a new copy.
to be even more pedantic... the term humanoid merely implies 2 arms 2 legs 1 head etc. doesn't mean they are members of the same species. GP is correct. Comparing Elves to hobbits is more like comparing monkeys to gorillas than comparing different races of humans.
So... Algae requires water and sunlight to grow, but this new fungus requires only cellulose. The cellulose comes from plants... which require water, sunlight, and soil to grow.
Most of the productive stuff I do is on the internet. I get my news from the net. When I need to know something I google it. Recently I've been viewing CS107.

Internet and mail order purchases are already subject to use tax in many states. Not that anyone actually pays it.

Knowledge is more important than breeding.

Lets all change our names to John Smith. Yeah, Google that biches.

The US owns the network within their borders.
AT&T, Time Warner, and Comcast might beg to differ with ya there. They seem to think they own the internet within the USA.
I would expect the coverage to be 'anywhere a traffic stop might be made' since that is the primary purpose of the network.
He said god not God.
I wouldn't go so far as to make it illegal, though I do think we should stop subsidizing it.

You know most movies lose money and are subsidised by the blockbusters, right?
I guess my boycott is working then
Oh no! Give up bottled water?

Doesn't apply. Damages are not the same as fines. IANAL
Except in the cases where knowing the information will be published with your name on it makes you a lot more likely to lie.
