Leave your door open, have everyone steal your stuff, empty your bank account etc. Nothing to pay the fines. Do they imprison you?
In the UK, that's like being given free room and board with satellite TV and three hot meals a day, access to free gym equipment, and free educational materials.
The only problem is that you have to keep infringing to live the high life of jail. Hilarious!
Same thing here. I downloaded libdvdcss2 to play encrypted DVDs through VLC Media Player on Ubuntu. Technically, I've breached UK copyright law by bypassing copy protection mechanisms, but I have No. Other. Way. of watching these Legally. Purchased. Licensed. DVDs on my PC.
I have a TV with a DVD player, but my g/f watches programs I don't like. She can't watch them on the computer, so I watch DVDs while she watches TV. For that, I must break the law, or pay Microsoft for an OS.
I wouldn't pay that much. That's how much it costs when you take into account packaging, pressing, promoting, and shipping a physical product.
The trouble is that these are the only ways the RIAA / MPAA represented companies make money. If they are gone, all they are is middle men skimming their xx% for no benefit whatsoever. They won't do that.
The number of linux installs on PS3 is so small that there's no reason for Sony to continue to support it, basically a few high computing centers and a few hackers, as opposed to the millions of gamers who have no idea it's even there.
he guy mentioned in this summary too exploited the OtherOS feature (with burning the PS3 hardware to cause kernel panic and subsequent escalate to PS3 code) and it would possibly allow piracy on PS3.
So Sony is going to lock this feature, which only a few nerds and cluster computing sites use, in order to prevent piracy by those very same people (who are very few in number, and most wouldn't game with their machines anyway)?
Ok, so "Space" is the measurable distance we can perceive. Outside of "space" is immeasurable as we've no point of reference, but for all intents and purposes is pretty much the same as what is inside "space" apart from without the contents.
Sorry, it must be me... I have trouble with the idea that there is nothing outside of the universe, and yet the universe is expanding. What is it expanding into? Porridge? "Nothing" would be a fine answer, but that brings me back to my question regarding the speed of light, which you have already answered.
Or, is "space" and arbitrary concept? The "edge of space" is just the most distant object we can observe?
Why not? If it's expanding, it has an edge. If it began contracting, would everything inside slow down? Would anything reach this "edge of the universe" or does the edge change with every piece of matter which accelerates further from the centre of the universe? In which case, when this last piece of matter is done moving away from the universes centre... Won't we live in a giant black hole?
Do we know what's past the edge of the universe? I guess I'm asking if C is constant outside of space as well as inside, or if C could be exceeded relative to what is outside of space.
1) Mount a satellite dish on the wall of a long room. 2) Place a chair at the opposite end of the room. 3) Have this guy sit in the chair for an hour. 4) See how much he complains about headaches, how much he acts up, how he has been brain-poisoned etc. 5) Show him that the dish is not connected to anything, and never has been.
If he doesn't react, affix it to a signal generator and see how he performs in an actual scientifically conducted test. But do it my way first, then make it into an amusing video montage so everyone knows how much of a tool he is.
How fast is "really really really fast" in the planck epoch? Would I be right in assuming that prior to 10^-6 seconds there was zero mass in the universe, and therefore everything could travel many times the speed of light?
Forgive me if it's a dumb question; Physics major, I aren't.
There will be no shrinking that you will perceive, should you fall into one. There will be much rending, though. The compression comes afterwards.
I'd recommend heading straight into the centre through the axis of rotation, though. High energy x-ray death sounds better to me than being pulled apart.
"Hi folks, here's the poll! If you are for the filtering of indecent images of children and violent sexual acts, dial this number! If you believe that everyone should have access to indecent images of children and violent sexual acts, dial the second number."
Lies, damn lies, and statistics. Filtering does not solve the problem of child abuse: It just takes it out of the public eye.
It's only fair if they engage by the rules. Offer no possibility of defense / retaliation through regular means, and expect those you fight to switch to some truely despicable tactics.
Boy, you've watched too many movies. That menacing look the protagonist musters while he's being tortured / beaten / intimidated? It's not nearly as menacing in real life as they make it look on film.

I'm willing to forgo the blackjack.
Looks like your society has its first hooker...
I'm the complete opposite; I can understand the theory, but not the math.
I might pick up a text book from the library...

Logic fail

Amazingly, that makes sense!
It was more of a sarcastic post, but not to worry. I mod frequently too, and do the same as you describe.
Well, it eliminates that he's right, doesn't it.

Haha! UK here! Too bad you can't drop our connections!
Wait, where is slashdot hoste[Connection dropped by USA Presidential request]

Or is that a stupid question?
Ugh, I had to post this right below the bleeding heart "he probably needs help, you insensitive clod!" post... Now I KNOW I'll get modded to hell.

Sure the next iPhone will be an improvement.
It will run Android.
Zzzzzzing!
You're not suggesting... A world wide beowulf cluster?!

Cyriak.co.uk was filtered where I work for cartoon violence (school). Don't know what they're doing with LHC feeds, if indeed they are there.
I can just picture the questions now:
"Hi folks, here's the poll! If you are for the filtering of indecent images of children and violent sexual acts, dial this number! If you believe that everyone should have access to indecent images of children and violent sexual acts, dial the second number."
Lies, damn lies, and statistics. Filtering does not solve the problem of child abuse: It just takes it out of the public eye.
It's only fair if they engage by the rules. Offer no possibility of defense / retaliation through regular means, and expect those you fight to switch to some truely despicable tactics.
Purely for survival.
This wouldn't be an issue if you weren't a newb camper! :D
Real men do it with a crowbar.
Threaten to take someone's life...
Boy, you've watched too many movies. That menacing look the protagonist musters while he's being tortured / beaten / intimidated? It's not nearly as menacing in real life as they make it look on film.
At best you look like you're constipated.
