How about being able to watch it on the device of my choice and without requiring a network connection (at least not at the time of viewing). Also 24 hours is probably not long enough.
If something you own now has less value because somebody else now has the same item, I would suggest that your initial calculation of value is flawed and of no use to society.
Charging for extra for delivery is nothing the same. That's like saying I can purchase my Amazon basked for £10 cheaper if I collect it myself.
Fragmented web standards are nothing new either, suck it up and roll with it. I don't bill my clients a higher rate just because a new law came into force that makes my industry more complicated - what makes some script kiddy with a copy of Dreamweaver and a PDF W3C certificate so goddamn special?
I bill my clients for my time. If news laws (or crappy browsers) require me to spend more time I will be charging for it.
Yes, I would happily take part in that research. However for some reason testing on humans is not allowed, even when the subjects have given full consent. Its a somewhat unexplainable stance. Given that we will all die (some of us much sooner than others) why not do some good before we shutdown?
We've also never seen tectonic plates move thousands of miles, but we have evidence that they have done so. We've never seen the inside of the sun, but we have evidence that hydrogen fuses into helium. We've never even seen a nucleus of an atom either! Science doesn't work by directly observing the phenomena it explains. Science works by making hypotheses about things and making testable predictions about things that we can observe. If we fail to observe what the hypothesis predicts, that's evidence that the hypothesis is incorrect.
The language of science especially when it is being taught should reflect this. Theories are models are often taught as incontrovertible fact. The most poignant example for me was being taught all the previous models of the atom, and why they were wrong, and then being shown the current model as incontestable.
Perhaps he just doesn't like what the country has become. The tax is just a side benefit. In any case he is just following the advice given out here many times, perhaps he intends to move to somalia...
I don't doubt that bittorrent is useful for smaller distros (I know that is true)... but Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian--the big distros.. rarely have problems with their mirrors around release time anymore. So my post really only applies to Will using Ubuntu. If he said linuX-gamers or something, I probably wouldn't even have posted.
Sure, but given the effficency of bittorrent it is riduclious that Ubuntu would spend money to provide fast FTP servers. That money would be better spent on doing something actually productive.

But, google have promised to do no evil.
How many of those are required?
The cancer is/was just a symptom.
My computers are where I get my geek kicks.
My computer where I get my geek kicks is also a phone.
Are you trying to suggest that this treatment actually cures the disease?

Why not, corporations are people too.
I do not own World of Warcraft, Starcraft 2, or Diablo 3 (nor do I have pirated versions).
Nobody owns those games. Normal mortals get the privilage of limited access by the grace of blizzard.
Yeah, steam is great until you're asked to insert the CD!

Apple won't accept that.
Not at all.

Actually, when people worked on farms it was likely easier to teach evolution, since selective livestock breeding is just a form of evolution.
Is that actually evolution though? Unless you're getting some mutant cattle as a result its just recombining the already evolved genes.
Doesn't it depend on your point of reference? The heliocentric model of the solar system does appear to be very useful though.
If the classrooms only teach the earth goes round the sun because the text book/teacher says so, is it any wonder that people forget.
9 out of 10 dentists recommend Crest toothpaste.
This should be read as: Crest have hidden the detrimental side effects so well that only 1 in 10 dentists can identify them.

Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good TIE fighter.

India has its own problems with justice, and getting in front of a judge is no help if the judge is corrupt.
