In eBay's case, they charge per-image above the free images. If Photobucket wanted a reasonable fee (it would be easy to beat eBay's price), they would have had plenty willing to pay.
Not using an email address that belongs to one of their customers for outbound emails would be a good start. There are so many substitutes you can use. Even as simple as no-reply instead of noreply will work fine. When sending outbound email with a no reply address, it has to be appear as a real delivery address to some mail servers before they'll even accept the email.
If you want to accept replies despite sending from a no reply email, you set the Reply-To: header and most email clients will use that address.
Yes, that's becoming uncommon. IMAP makes it easy to keep read status and folders synced between any and every device, phones included.
I'd rather not sort through emails on my phone as if they're a separate entity with no idea which ones are new without looking closely.
I store my emails locally too, but on a Dovecot server that I can sync everything with. It does not run the actual email address, but it proxies it for me through some sort of IMAP sync tool.
Then that would lower the pool of labor and wages would rise out of competition instead of statute. Same end result, but a shorter path. And it might drive enough economic growth to require more labor in the end since these employees could actually afford to buy what they're helping to sell.
for the profit to be real, you just need the COGS to be less than the price the customer is willing to pay for those goods
And the profit margin is often wider than it used to be. If a business can increase profits by lowering labor costs, they will. If they don't have that freedom, they will have to accept a smaller (more fair) profit. At the same time, other businesses that should have failed are being artificially supported with the welfare of cheap labor.
In some of these population-dense areas, the supply of laborers far exceeds the available jobs. You don't have opportunities for higher wages.
Now, at the same time there are a lot of high wage earners in Seattle. They can afford to buy lots of minimum-wage supported goods and services at a slightly higher price. Many of these businesses are making plenty of money and could afford to pay more because of the size of their profit margin. They don't need to simply because of the size of the labor supply. If someone wants a raise, they can fire that worker and find someone else very quickly. The only other valid fix is to force low-earners to move out of the area and decrease the labor supply, but that's not as easy as a minimum wage increase.
If the business didn't have a valid business plan because they didn't properly budget for labor, that just artificially lowers the price of the goods to fake a profit.
"Sweat of the brow" isn't enough to afford something copyright protection in the US. See telephone books. A minimal amount of creative effort is a requirement. Google Street View is automated. The effort to create the stitching software does not count.
Paypal refunded the payments, though. They had already sat on the money for 2 weeks waiting on somewhere to deliver it. For such a large account, they should have tried to reach out to Sony. After all, their share of the fees are worth well more than enough to pay for the time to make a phone call.
...and then still didn't get a power conditioner. They've only gotten themselves relatively stable voltage - I doubt they've rid themselves of noise that would have been on the high voltage line.
Refrigerators work by compressing refrigerant to the point where it's hotter than ambient air, at which point it cools off. The human body has nothing like this, so your point is not very useful.

Thinking before acting is overrated in your opinion?

And let me guess...there's nothing else wrong with it. There is no reason to throw something away just because it needs a new battery.
If the system sending it needs a dedicated outbound address. You set the Reply-To: header for replies.

But even AOL's webmail is better now. Seriously, go try it.
You missed this:
still run everything through the main mail provider, the local is for backup
I do the same. I use my provider for SMTP, but proxy everything to a local Dovecot server for access. It's the best of both worlds.
I agree that running your own outbound server is next to impossible these days.

In the end, that would let you patent the algorithm and copyright the code, not the photos.

That frees up real estate for a better restaurant.
Where will a high school graduate go to get their first job? What about summer jobs to pay help pay for college?
Ideally by not taking away someone else's only chance at full-time employment.

Integers make me nice and happy, and decimal points tend to be spaced weird on device UIs anyway from a graphic design / typography standpoint.
I really only care about if for indoor temperatures. But the point is, you don't need a decimal point to be more accurate with Fahrenheit.

Why would there be a master tape? You can send digital straight from a DAC to the cutting tool.
Did you store them in a car in Arizona this week?
Wouldn't a simple power conditioner give a pure enough sine wave? Or maybe even more so?
