But open source software, you already have all the bits. Just need to find valuable US Open Source software and resell them under a commercial license that otherwise wouldn't be available.
Most open source software licenses do not forbid commercial sales at all. As a matter of fact they usually say you can charge as much for the software as you can get for it. In reality open source software is the ultimate free market software. The buyer is completely aware of what he is buying, the seller is completely aware of what she is selling. It is only closed sourced software that hides important information from one party to the other.
Seems I recall the whole planet just passed the 7 billion mark, typo?
What makes the American experience exceptional or did at one time was the fact that government was subjects of the people.
And when the people say that everybody has a right to "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness"...you are 100% willing to make sure that they actually do?
"UPS has decided, as a result of increased costs and provisions of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), to stop covering employee's spouses who can get coverage from their own employer..."
Why do you see that as a problem? It only makes to me that they would want to quit carrying burdens that other employers should be shouldering.
Damn, going on 4 years and I still have not managed to my N900's socket break despite nearly daily charging. Are you sure this just isn't a simple case of the manufacturer having a bad hair day when the phone was assembled?
Who in the hell needs another recurring payment in their lives? Because you have something I might want to watch now you expect me to pay you next month, the month after, and the month after that!? Geez, and here you talk are bringing up slavery.
You are right, it appears that is a global thing to want to hold people responsible for what they say...not that I agree with that by the way. There are many cases where stating the obvious can cause harm. Bless all the anonymous cowards!!
And the party needs someone to control. At least the proles and animals are free. Besides, where is one to get shoelaces and razor blades if were not from the proles?
It wasn't all that long ago that most stories about internet freedom covered the abuses of North Korea, China, and the Islamic Republics. Of course there were always a few comments, usually from our brave AC's, who claimed the US did the same but was better at hiding it. Bless all the slashdot anonymous cowards, keep up the good work.
If labor can be had for less overseas, then it is beholden on management to look overseas for labor. Only regulation could prevent them from doing so, and currently the political climate in the US is anti-regulation.
...but just doesn't know it yet. They bet the farm on familiarity and they lost. Sad they had to take a decent company like Nokia down with them, but that's the breaks. Maybe MS Android could have saved the day, but it's pretty clear that such a move is way to late.
I think you are confusing sharing rides with ridesharing. Ridesharing is where you call the company in advance, and they come and pick you up, possibly picking up other people along the way and then drop you off and charge both of you the full fare amount, which is usually about the same as a cab ride.
So in actuality, it is faresharing. People have been sharing rides from at least the first time the decided to jump on the backs of horses.
I guess it also == you get what you pay bus drivers? Seriously, is a child more likely during to get injured on a moving vehicle or parked in classroom?
They hired the firm in attempt to take action because something is happening. If they did nothing then they would be held liable for ignoring the problem.

This isn't some pseudocrime like copyright infringement, this is an actual theft because it is depriving his employer of their own network.

Out of over 313 billion people...

UPS dropping spouses from coverage due to the ACA: http://www.businessinsider.com/ups-dropping-spouses-health-coverage-2013-8 [businessinsider.com] (to name just one of many such outcomes).

Hominids have been splitting rocks for a couple of millions of years now.
Can anyone provide a link to a site that reviewed the source code and vetted the security of all RNGs?

I'm pretty sure everyone would implement Apple's "superior" design if they didn't have to pay Apple to use it.

Things Americans do care about: sucking the entitlement teat.
And they won't stop until they get their hands on our Social Security and Medicare. Communists every last one of them,
So they weren't deveined properly? Seriously, you need to to learn to get over your prejudices. Just about all arthropods have big, meaty abdomens.
So why the $100 cost if it isn't to profit off of those who depend on it?
Businesses spend money to make money, and since profiting off others is the ultimate goal why should they be trusted?
And the party needs someone to control. At least the proles and animals are free. Besides, where is one to get shoelaces and razor blades if were not from the proles?
Shrimp are, after all, arthropods. Some even call them "insects of the seas."

This is an authoriatarian versus libertarian issue, not right versus left.

"Hey Ez, where you headed?"
"Going to the store to get some beer."
"Mind if I go? I need a few things too."
"Sure, no problem."
I'm sure I'm not the only one in shares rides either.
