But in this case, they couldn't get a (regular) warrant. There is no probable cause. The only power they have is the threat of a warrant. Unless secret warrants are easier to get.
Radio is basically the only thing that works that way - and I'm guessing it's only for ASCAP. But that's the songwriter's royalty. I believe they pay royalties based on complete count for the recording to SoundExchange (the license for the actual recording for the song instead of the writing credits). And probably all other songwriters exchanges too (BMI/SESAC/etc). It's ridiculous that they're not just requiring something that the radio stations already have to do for SoundExchange. They really need to get with the times.
It's not so much a typo as it is an accidental translation to English. It's only 2 letters off from English - Folkswagon. What spell check has a list of commercial entities' proper names?
I will add that some record labels will pay a radio station to air their music. And theoretically they could give them a free pass to air it without a license. But the radio station STILL has to pay royalties on those songs, since their agreement with ASCAP/BMI/SESAC still requires it.
Terrestrial radio is required to pay musicians. It's copyrighted material and can't be broadcast without some sort of license agreement. This is usually brokered through an agency like ASCAP/BMI. Clear Channel may have a special agreement with one of those agencies, but they aren't the only ones required to pay.
If a small TV station airs a Ford commercial with copyrighted music in the background, they have to track how many times they air that commercial and pay royalties on that song. It's no different with TV, radio, or Internet. The royalties are just higher for Internet performances.
Some people make a living just by writing songs. A lot of famous singers do not write their own songs. Both skills don't always go hand-in-hand except for the most talented people. That's why there are writer's royalties and performance royalties - both are separate for a good reason.
It's not a strict comic. It might embody the xkcd spirit, but it's not the same old thing. And it's interesting even outside the context of it being related to a web comic.
I have an external hard drive named TimeMachine. In it, is a folder named Backups.backupdb. In that is a folder named the same as my computer. Inside that is a list of folders named after datetimes. Each one of the 51 dated full hard drive backup folders contains the full contents of my hard drive. Yes, it uses file AND directory hard links to link to files that are unchanged. Each backup is almost 100GB stored on a 250GB drive that still has 92GB free. That would not be possible without hard link deduplication.
As a mac owner, I'm sure you realize that mention of it being Retina is only related to Apple not using model numbers in almost all of their documentation and sales pages (except maybe in the fine print).
The Airports are really flaky for TM backup. The bottleneck I've seen with them is that they just quit working and need to be reset. Even over Ethernet.
I think the slowdown is from the hard links it creates in the backup directory on the external drive. That takes a lot of time. Every file that's changed gets written to the backup directory as a new file. Every file that hasn't changed gets written as a hard link to the inode of the original backup of that file. So if you have 200,000 files, and 10 of them changed, you still have to write 200,000 entries for the backup.
Still - I don't ever see 15 minutes. I'm curious what's causing your problem and wonder if just blowing away your backup and starting over wouldn't help.
Part of why Time Machine takes so long is that it has to create hard links to every file that hasn't changed. If you look in your backup folder, there's a list of dated directories. Each one is a complete image of your hard drive at the time of the backup. The deduplication comes from hard links, so you can delete older backups directly from the filesystem without messing anything up. While it does take time, I really wish more backup systems were set up that way.
Does it destroy the old backup or create a new folder? I realize you might want to delete the old backup to save space when it does this, but you wouldn't have to do it.
I wish there was something more like Time Machine for Windows and Linux - especially the part where there's dated directories with hard links back to the original revision of the files.

That's just bizarre:

compound words are not a thing in English, but otherwise it's the same idea.

That's definitely outdated. Radio stations have tracking systems to keep track of individual plays of songs now.

You could not have been more wrong if you'd tried.

Proof that you can be more wrong (on television).

Time Machine uses an external HDD.
