That makes the purchaser in violation of the ToS, not Redbox. Of course that makes them a potential accomplice.
But don't you suspect that they changed these terms when they made the lawsuit public? These probably aren't the terms that were in effect when the earlier codes were originally sold by Redbox.
Either way, just because it's in the terms doesn't mean it's not a violation of the First-Sale Doctrine and has no legal weight.
Sell that piece of paper? Fine. Sell a COPY of the piece of paper? Not nearly as clear cut.
Raise.com is a whole marketplace that lets you sell copies of an e-gift card code. They haven't been shut down and I think this is (effectively) the same thing.
As long as only one person gets to redeem the code, and Redbox never agreed to any ToS with Movies Anywhere, I don't see the problem.
So if I buy an Microsoft Office Key Card online but don't activate it, I can't re-sell it? What about a Windows 10 Retail installer with a product key?
Maybe a material that's been around under the same trade name since the 50's is common knowledge to more people than you apparently think.
And even though DuPont insists that Mylar is the brand name for the plastic film itself, it's been used colloquially to mean metal deposited on plastic film for almost its entire existence.
That's because it's not HI (Protected Health Information). It doesn't mean it shouldn't be protected - just that it's not covered by a law specifically about Helath Information
When the external environmental temperature tips above our body temperature we begin to slow cook within our own skin unable to release heat.
Only when the humidity in the air is 100%. Otherwise, regular old sweating will reduce body temperature through evaporative cooling. Drinking cool water, having air conditioning and/or refrigeration all help too.
If the articles are typically just fleshing out the headline
With medical/science articles, it's usually worse to read the article. Even the headline is exaggeration. If you don't go looking for the original source, you have to work backward to guess what the real scientific discovery actually is.
This. They're probably going to point a neural network at this face-fingerprint data and train their auto-tagger. Right now, bad lighting or an odd angle will throw off the automatic face recognition.
Gold plating on cable connectors isn't all that expensive even with the current cost of gold (so don't pay a huge premium for it anyway). Having a non-corroding metal is still useful if you want it to last a long time - especially in a bit harsher of an environment.
A poor attempt. Making the apps work with the existing ecosystem was the only way to get buy-in. And look at Metro apps now. People use built-in Metro apps all the time in Windows 10 without realizing it.

I think that means there is clear case law that the digital license is separate from the viewing rights of the disc. First Sale doctrine applies.

Yeah, and who needs slashdot? All we really need is flat text files in one big folder for each of our comments.

Conservatives aren't snowflakes
You're right. Snowflakes are unique - parroting does not make your perspective either unique or interesting.
And they're not college students, they're collegiate students.
No. You sometimes use nouns as adjectives. Democratic does not (always or typically) mean member of the Democratic Party.
Even under HIPAA, those aren't considered PHI

So they should go back and shoot some before 360 degree video? Can they time travel?

Most people don't have time for that.
That wooshing sound isn't a 747 engine.
So throw your trash in the streets and not the landfill.

which means a 10K screen would need to obstruct your ENTIRE field of view to be useful
Or maybe, since this is for commercial displays, you don't need to see the whole screen at once for this to be useful.
Think about a McDonald's digital menu board without seams every couple feet. Or an information display at an airport.
Multi-tasking is obsolete
Linux will support it just fine. Your graphics chip has to speak HDMI, but Linux doesn't. And you don't have to use HDCP, so no worries there.
Just good old ARM (Macrovision).
I thought the topic was Windows 8, not just RT. Trying to get people to use a tablet UI has nothing to do with that.
it was an attempt to get people using Metro apps
A poor attempt. Making the apps work with the existing ecosystem was the only way to get buy-in. And look at Metro apps now. People use built-in Metro apps all the time in Windows 10 without realizing it.
They did say Windows 10 would be the last version of Windows...
I don't like the idea of disposable software either. I'm going to run Adobe CS 5.5 until it won't run at all anymore.
