I forgot to mention that I think the Azureus/Vuze DHT and clients, which isn't compatible with the DHT that all other clients use, have had this type of chat feature for a long time. I think they create a chat room for each torrent, so you can chat with other people downloading what you are downloading.
The BitTorrent DHT is a giant distributed database formed among most of the BT clients that maps ip addresses / port numbers to arbitrary keys. That's how the clients talking in the same room find each other.
Apple will meet the same fate as AOL who was once the biggest player in the ISP, email, and IM markets. In fact, it almost happened to Apple in the mid 90's and will happen again the next time Steve Jobs leaves the company. In fact, the only reason Apple is doing well with the strategy is because Steve Jobs is by far the greatest single contributor to the industry. It will take a while for them to fall but they hung on for over ten years the last time too.
Sobriety checkpoints are legal because the Supreme Court says they are, unless your state constitution gives you additional protections. See Michigan vs. Sitz.
Sounds great, how much will it cost me per month to tie it down at an airport in the SF Bay Area? I couldn't find anything recent but it seems to me like it's going to be $250+ a month for tiedown space that isn't in the middle of nowhere.
As someone pointed out in another thread, it would only be an ex post facto law if it criminalized use during the period that the work was in the public domain, prior to the law coming into effect.
Congress anticipated this and the law has a provision for mandatory licensing for derivatives created before restoring Copyright. The terms can be set by a Federal court if necessary. I posted a quote from the 10th Circuit opinion.
The questions presented by the petitioners are whether the law violates the copyright clause and the first amendment. The prohibition on ex post facto is only mentioned in the petition in a footnote in reference to a reliance mentioned by the Gov't in Eldred's oral arguments. According to the opinion below, the legislation in question doesn't.
It also interferes with the specific reliance interests Solicitor General Olson referred to in Eldred, because each Petitioner here relied on the Public Domain status of the works they performed, adapted or distributed. See Golan H, 501 F.3d at 1193.4
4 The difference between extending the term of existing copyrights and resurrecting copyrights in works that were already part of the Public Domain parallels the distinction this Court has drawn in other contexts. This Court has, for instance, recognized the legislature may extend the statute of limitations for criminal offenses without violating the Ex Post Facto Clause of the Constitution, but cannot revive time-barred prosecutions once the statute of limitations has run. See Stogner v. Califor- nia, 539 U.S. 607, 617-18 (2003). One of the bases for this distinction is the reliance interest that vests upon the expiration of the limitations period. See id. at 631-32. This Court has recognized a similar distinction in regard to the expiration of civil limitations periods. See id. at 632 (citing Chase Securities Corp. v. Donaldson, 325 U.S. 304, 312, n.8 (1945); William Danzer & Co. v. Gulf & Ship Island R. Co., 268 U.S. 633, 637 (1925)). If there is an important reliance interest in avoiding prosecution for criminal acts (Stogner) or civil liability for the illegal sale of securities (Chase Securities), the public’s reliance interest in maintaining the right to lawful expression should be greater still.
Also, the legislation in question protects people who created a derivative prior to restoration from being locked out entirely, from the 10th circuit opinion:
Section 514 provides further protections for reliance parties who, prior to restoration, created a derivative work4 that was based on a restored work. Under Section 514, “a reliance party may continue to exploit that derivative work for the duration of the restored copyright if the reliance party pays to the owner of the restored copyright reasonable compensation . . ..” Id. 104A(d)(3)(A). If the parties are unable to agree on reasonable compensation, a federal court will determine the amount of compensation. See id. 104A(d)(3)(B).
Seems to me that Congress anticipated this type of challenge.
You're right that Eldred doesn't directly apply but it reveals the justices thinking. As the infamous Jack Valenti said before Eldred was decided, "Limited means whatever Congress says it means." I doubt much has changed since then.
I don't see how returning something to protection for a limited time conflicts with the copyright clause, perhaps you could elaborate.
Both the Copyright and the Supremacy clauses are working against him. Congress has the power to grant copyrights and in Eldred the Court said as long as they theoretically expire at some point in the future then all is well. Also, signed and ratified treaties are, along with the Constitution, the supreme law of the land. Yay for "harmonization."
June 5 is the anniversary of the six day war, a.k.a. "Naksa Day." The protest had been planned for weeks/months and it isn't the least bit surprising that the day was chosen for protest.
People who aren't allowed to return to their homes have been expelled. If their home is in Israel, how could it be anyone's fault but Israel's that they can't return? Humans have a right to return to their homes and not be expelled so their homes/land can be given/leased to different ethnic group. Do you consider non-jews to be human?
Sometimes the cops will seal up the car and have it towed to the forensics bay for a thorough examination. In that case it definitely could be days before a gun is found. Not just because the caseload may delay the start of the examination but it is also very time consuming and it could easily take weeks or months to complete.
The laws you speak of do not apply to every conversation, only those where the participants have a reasonable expectation of privacy. They don't apply to people, including police officers, speaking on a public street.
It's already been decided, it's an administrative search and you consent to it anyway, you can always hire a private vehicle. Nothing will fix it until the airlines and congress perceive that the only way to save the airlines is to fix it.
A respectable fraction of homes, millions, contain guitar amps made with tubes. The days of the 12AX7 and EL84 will not be numbered when people switch to SS microwave ovens.
They changed it after receiving a memo from the office of redundancy office who sent a memo telling them to change it to "Live from New York, it's Saturday Night!"
Can you cite any cases? You're likely wrong because a password, like the combination to a safe, is not testimonial so the fifth amendment doesn't attach. No, making your passphrase a confession won't help.

Someone mixing up some TATP in the lavatory is about as likely as the TSA stopping twenty terror attacks just this year but has been keeping quiet about it.

Thanks to the wonderful SCOTUSblog you can read the opinion below, petition for cert, brief in opposition, petitioners reply, and the amicus briefs.

The first amendment protects your right to use a video camera in public. It's protection doesn't end just because there is a cop in the frame.
It is an infringement on the victim's constitutional rights in addition to being a case of assault, destruction of property, wrongful arrest, etc...

I get it, it's your phone when Apple is using it to track you, but it's Apple's phone when it comes to deciding what code gets to run on it.
I'd love to work at home but then how would I communicate with my co-workers?

Google search results and rankings are generated algorithmically. Since there is no creativity involved it isn't protected by Copyright.

Clearly, it is time to move the security checkpoint out into the parking lot.
