Still can't read, huh? The OP did not say the amount of time spent in prison, he said the average SENTENCE for murder was 7 years, and he was comparing it to a max 10 year SENTENCE for this crime, as if this crime was getting more time than the average murderer. If you want to compare time actually served, then the MEDIAN 1 year for property crimes must be compared with the MEDIAN 14 years for murder. Whether you compare sentences (average 40.6 years for murder vs MAX 10 years for this), or average time served, either way the OP (and you) are completely wrong.
Learn to read. The first page is not showing the sentence length, it is showing time spent in prison before first release. Sentence length is on page 4.
Oh horseshit. First of all, he has not been sentenced to anything yet. 10 years is the maximum he could get, whereas the maximum for murder is life imprisonment, or in some cases death. Secondly, the AVERAGE murder sentence is 40.6 years, where did you get that idiotic 7 years? The average property crime sentence is about 4 years. https://www.bjs.gov/content/pu...
Your knowledge of patent exhaustion is laughable. Patent exhaustion says that the seller of a product can not control the product once it is sold. In no way does patent exhaustion allow you to infringe on OTHER patents, whether or not they use the product in question.
For instance, suppose you invented the transistor, and also a particular amplifier that used that transistor. Patent exhaustion would prevent you from saying 'this transistor may not be used in anyone else's amplifier', but it would NOT prevent you from asserting your patent rights if someone used it to make your patented amplifier.
Of course it's legal to do that. BUT, the 'other product' you are repackaging into may ALSO be covered by a patent, and just buying a CPU does not give you the license to make that other product, in the US or probably anywhere else.
When you take those components and put them together to make some sort of useful circuit you are creating something else. And that something else may well be covered by someone's patent, and buying those components sure as hell doesn't negate that.
Do you think when you buy a transistor you automatically have a license to build any circuit imaginable with that transistor? A piece of hardware and an application using that hardware are two separate things.
Your example is odd. Yes, when you buy a modem you expect the modem manufacturer to have paid any required licenses. No shit. But that is not what this is about. This is you bought a modem and wish to use it in a particular way that is also patented. Buying the modem does not give you that license, no matter how you want to spin it.
The point is that, according to the law, legal law enforcement operations do not need 'authorization' to access computers (and no, most 'legal law enforcement operations' do not require any king of judicial order or warrant). Therefore, the TOS can not be used to block law enforcement (or make them pay). And if you think that FB is just going to shut down all the accounts for basically everyone in the US, I'll have some of what you're smoking.
(f) This section does not prohibit any lawfully authorized investigative, protective, or intelligence activity of a law enforcement agency of the United States, a State, or a political subdivision of a State, or of an intelligence agency of the United States.
And you can bet every other anti-hacking law has a similar clause.
There nothing secretive about denials. They call you and explain it. If they don't call you, call them and they will explain it. If it is actually you doing the transaction they will let it through, no matter how odd it looks to them.
Maybe, just maybe, you don't understand the problem. Suppose Musk tweets out something about production problems. Some people will read that and decide that they should sell their stock - not necessarily a bad decision. Others though, will ignore the tweet (because they are so smart). Because of the selling, the stock price plummets. Who is potentially hurt? The people who ignored the tweet.
Since there is no way to stop anyone from acting on a tweet, the proper thing to do is make sure that all material communication comes only from official sources.
I think it has little to do with being 'entertained' and much more to do with reverting back to 'I could be prey' mode when in silence. For instance, I work in an office environment. There is nothing 'entertaining' going on, no music or anything like that. If you walk around you will hear snippets of conversations, people will say 'hi' in the hallways, etc. But, every once in a while the air conditioning temporarly stops. As soon as that happens, everyone behaves differently. Instead of normal conversation, people either stop talking altogether or whisper. People close themselves in their offices. It just feels weird, like someone is watching you.
That is the whole point. Some people WILL base their decisions on any available information. This can give them a significant advantage over people who only trust 'official' sources of information. Hence, the rule that all material information must only come from official sources.
Edible plastics are any food that can be molded or formed and will retain its shape. Ice cream, chocolate, mashed potatoes, gelatin, etc are all edible plastics.
You're not making any sense. Suppose you paid $1K over 10 years for homeowners insurance. Your house burns down, and the insurance company pays $200K to rebuild. Where, exactly, do you think the other $190,000 (the subsidy) came from? From everyone else who paid premiums. Their premiums subsidized your loss. A subsidy of $0 is not insurance, it is a savings account. Why do you think many insurance companies have 'mutual' in the name? You are subsidizing someone else's loss, and they are subsidizing yours. The insurance company is, for a fee, managing the subsidies and nothing else.
A person in Utica that makes only $30K will be paying state income tax at a rate of 6.33%. That same income in Huntsville will be paying 5%.
The person in Utica will be paying property taxes of 2.21%, while the person in Huntsville is paying 0.45%
Yet you're saying the transportation network, schools, and general infrastructure are worse in Utica. So what are the people in Utica (and upstate as a whole) getting for their ridiculously high taxes?
It's not just the tax rate, it's that the high taxes are paying for things that people in NYC want the taxes spent on rather than things that benefit the taxpayers in Utica. Keep telling yourself that taxes aren't the problem.
So we're back to 'it tastes good' but isn't healthy. Do you go to bakeries and accuse them of 'engineering food' to be 'addictive'? Do you complain when a chef at a nice restaurant prepares you a delicious meal that has 2500 calories? Or is it just plain old 'corporations...eeeeeeebil'?
So are you trying to claim that this food is actually addictive (physcially and mentally dependant on the product, unable to stop without adverse effects), or are you just complaining that they make food that tastes good so you want more? You have offered up no proof of the first, and the second is the goal of every cook and chef (and they really want to make the 'can't get it anywhere else' recipes).

Nope. You get a license for patents embodied in the hardware. You certainly do not get licenses for applications of that hardware.

How does 'someone else' make you appear in public without your consent?
Ok, Jack
Which would be obscuring the message, which is illegal.

I would say nobody ever fully understands the situation originally. Thinking otherwise is hubris.
It is british English for 'cooktop'.
