Well, PATENTED idea? - no, thank you then. I thought it was a community effort, based on free ideas and standards. Isn't it like paying for "protection" to your neighbouhood bully after all?
No!!!, I read the PDF and it's just too much. If this fuckup becomes law, the law I will have in disregard. Screw it. There is a level of corruption behind which people don't respect the law. Welcome Banana EU!
cars, cigarettes, earthqakes, white gloves... Actually, sueing for an earthquake could be tricky...:D Anyone with a round, black object to use against barbarians in emergency? And believe me, abuse of common sense the emergency might well make.
So show me the next equally successful, non-GPL project... That demonstration would validate the discussion (still not proving the point)..(yawn). Next one please?
Concerns not only cars. Think of buildings. I live in northern Japan (snowy winters, hot summers) and assure you that most of buildings seem to have been constructed without much concern for thermal insulation. What campaign are they talking about anyway?
...And your comments make me more sad than the original news. It looks like the Americans have been seriously insulted. So sad, that the only post here calling for positive action was drowned in stupid jokes and whining. Sorry guys, but those who hopelessly whined are already demoralized into Bush's puppets... For a tutorial about dealing with election cheating, look to Ukraine. Things _can_ be changed. Camping in Washington, anyone? (INaA - I'm Not an American)
Would be nice to let MPAA know that people can voice their opinions and still sign with their real names. Please, be gentle and reasonable. (Sorry if redundant)
"the heavy fire of artillery to saturate an area rather than hit a specific target" [dict.org] Isn't the frequency of restrictive copyright-related law proposed in US a bit too high?
I hereby claim the method of grouping icons in the third dimension and in the time domain. Leaving higher spatial dimensions (dementions?) untouched - rush to USPTO while it lasts!:-)
These cameras have the depth-of-focus preview button which I find indispensable while composing pictures. (this is the button closing aperture to preset value so you can see what would be in/out of focus on the picture - is the background blurred, etc.)
Especially the Nikons are sturdy, their lenses are comptaible with later models.
I would especially recommend FE-2 for it's convenient light meter display.
Basic 50mm 1.4 lens is handy, but I've chosen 50mm 1.2 to work with.
Harsh penalties might not decrease crime, but IF the crime rate falls for whatever reasons anyway, the people who introduced new law would advertise it as THEIR success. Win-win, because the public wouldn't care about damages made by ineffective, severe laws (think of costs/effects of war against drugs). IANAL
For good or bad, Teller wasn't the only father of the hydrogen bomb. From: http://www.phy.bg.ac.yu/web_projects /giants/teller.html
---- Teller and his colleagues at Los Alamos made little actual progress in designing a workable thermonuclear device until early in 1951, when the physicist Stanislaw M. Ulam proposed to use the mechanical shock of an atomic bomb to compress a second fissile core and make it explode; the resulting high density would make the burning of the second core's thermonuclear fuel much more efficient. Teller in response suggested that radiation, rather than mechanical shock, from the atomic bomb's explosion be used to compress and ignite the thermonuclear second core. Together these new ideas provided a firm basis for a fusion weapon, and a device using the Teller-Ulam configuration, as it is now known, was successfully tested at Enewetak atoll in the Pacific on Nov. 1, 1952; it yielded an explosion equivalent to 10 million tons (10 megatons) of TNT.
As I remember, It was called the "Red Flag Act", enforced in England for... the safety of horse-driven carriages:-) It has practically made impractical the use of steam-engine automobiles.
Atari 800XL was my door into geekdom. As soon as I got my hands on floppy drive and Pascal compiler, I used it to compile assembly programs. 6502 was a great chip, and the first I ever knew:-) For many people from my generation that entry point was Spectrum or Commodore. People keep discussing business here, but where are those who actually started programming with these machines?
however are the inscriptions in broken English, everywhere from the toilet paper holder "for amenity of a human life", to the tank itself. They are omnipresent in Japan, but reading them in the loo greatly speeds up the business:-)
I wish people stop using the fashionable oxymoron "Intellectual Property". For me the ultimate reason why information can't be owned is the necessity of Mind Police to enforce such kind of property. Please, use the words with care.
Will emerge based on streaming pay-per-use media to 3gpp mobile devices. Associate that with adoption of ipv6 protocol. See, that PC without IPMP built in is the only weak point - anyone could run a server. I'm afraid, that bill would pass and be soon adopted worldwide. 3gpp adopters seem not sure about their profits, and not sure what would be their killer-app. They would press governments to guard them. Just an idea...
why not use ATP-driven translocation of polynucleotides, single-base pairing receptors changing their fluorescence, the pores able to regulate each other so that only one is sequencing at a time, enzymes stretching out hairpins, things like this make me wish i come back to my old toys one day...
Just another TV drama on the wide screen. Dropped some tears - yes, but that's all. Nothing new. Is SF only about replaying worn out myths with robots and aliens for a change? Don't think so...

Good luck!

Actually, Mr. Yushchenko had declared withdrawing of Ukrainian soldiers from Iraq...
So much for correcting your mistake.

Is reason for worries;
Intensive slashdotting
Shortcircuits memory.

JPG is the DOS filename extension, not the picture compression standard's name, I suppose.
Better luck the next time, Slashdot
