It's not one of those, that list is incomplete (but it doesn't claim to be a full list, it's just some well known examples from the list). The full list has several entries that could potentially qualify - including "private non-commercial" and maybe even "educational purposes".
Sucks for the recording companies that the case got heard in S.F. Liberal city surrounded by tech companies, no wonder the Judges there weren't as eager as their texas counterparts to suckle thoughtlessly on the genitalia of any incorporated entity with an IP claim.
Nobody said it was. But the science in natgeo has always been rock solid. Which is bloody rare for a non journal publication. And so wheln climate science was the topic it was science they published not politically motivated wishful thinking. As it happens the natgeo edition with the greatest climate focus back in 2007 never mentioned wildlife once. Instead it had articles on decades old ski resorts that were closing because of glacier melt.
Worse. The science and art nobels are chosen by experts in the field. The peace one was always fuzzier which is why it has had more than a few very controversial recipients but the economic one is flat out ideological and has almost exclusively gone to whoever shouted loudest for banking deregulation. The only exception in its entire history was Keynes and that was only because his ideas changed the world so radically it was politically impossible to skip him without losing any semblence of legitimacy. Of course in today's post fox world he probably would have been skipped.
It certainly matters to a discussion on compensation. It would be quite unjust of my country to demand the US compensate us for thimerasol since the drug was never available here. You cant bill somebody for something that only harms himself. Global polution like climate change however harms everybody. It also does more harm to poor countries as they have less resources to adapt with, save lives with and protect themselves with. Getting nost of the harm and little of the benefits from what rich countries did they do in fact have a rather justified claim for compensation.
Personally i would forego the compensation though, I would rather see them spend the tiny fraction of that it would cost to end their CO2 dependence. Its better to avoid deaths than to pay damages after all.
Burning organics is actually carbon neutral. The wood I burn today cannot produce more co2 than it had removed and replaced with oxygen before it was cut down.
There can be other polution impacts of course, woodash and woodsmoke can be toxic and harmful but these are relatively local effects. Climate change is driven by increasing CO2. That is only done by burning carbon that had not been part of the natural carbon cycle for millions of years or ever (such as fossil fuels).
Option 3: it is politically advantageous to play up threats in the US because fear politics are effective but politically advantageous to play down threats in China and Russia because appearing invincible is effective.
Never make the mistake of thinking what politicians focus on is correlated to how important it is. Cyber espionage is simply to powerful and easilly available an espionage weapon not to be stock in trade by every government against every government. Hell even tiny South Africa was caught spying on Germany (an ally) in late 90s.
Youre assuming that "convenient for distro developers" translates into "valuable for users". More over you are ignoring that having it adopted as a dependency by things like gnome largely tied most distros hands. Dedicated non-gnome distros are the only ones that made a choice. Any distro that wants to ship gnome (an utterly unrelated product) did not choose systemd as there was no choice available.
It's been stopped. In fact the US's nett migration rates have been negative for many years now. More people leave the US to go live in Mexico than enter the US from Mexico - and that's with legals INCLUDED.
There is no immigration problem, there is only rich exploiters desperate to have the people they exploit blamed somebody other than themselves so they invented a scapegoat. Getting the downtrodden to turn on another downtrodden group and blame them for their woes as opposed to blaming the people doing the trodding down is a political trick as old as civilization.
I think you're wrong. The logistics of dealing with that many dead bodies all at once would simply overwhelm the systems of even the most advanced and richest countries. Emergency management simply could not keep up. Bodies would lie in the street, rotting, attracting pests and disease... and the other 3 billion would die soon after as they are overwhelmed by those.
You just ruled out Heinlein's stranger in a strange land from good sf. Not to mention Ender's game and such fantastic sf shorts as "Where late the sweet birds sang"
Money and wisdom are mutually exclusive goals . You can spend your time gaining one or the other but you cannot spend the same time seeking both. How much time you devote to which is one the most important prioritization decisions a human ever makes.
True wisdom tests the veracity of all claims regardless of source. Thus you can learn the truths spoken by fools and avoid the lies told by great authority.
Which is ad hominem. Who makes the argument again has absolutely no bearing on whether or not the conclusions are true. Even fools and manipulators occasionally say true things. Stopped clock and all that.
The former two subgroups are, unfortunately, in such a tiny minority as to be effectively non-existent and have about as much actual influence over the MRA movement as Albert Speer had over the holocaust (in other words, they go along with the party-line until they get called on it and then suddenly speak out against the insane parts) and yes I know I just Godwinned myself but he was just too perfect an analogy not to.
As one of prominent feminist put it: There are quite a number of MRA concerns that are legitimate issues of gender equality which deserves to have somebody doing something about them - unfortunately, that is not what the MRA movement is doing.
Cows eat grass. Grass is green. Therefore the sky is blue.
That's a fallacious argument. Nevertheless the conclusion is entirely true.
You can't accept OR reject a conclusion based on a fallacy - or you are committing a fallacy yourself. The correct response is to denounce the argument, and demand the person provide an alternative argument or evidence for their conclusion. Note also how every statement in the above is true, it's a deductive reasoning argument, where every premise as well as the conclusion are provably true yet it is nonetheless not a valid argument (it violates one of the laws of logic in that the conclusion does not follow from the premises).
He did not have 20k people at the announcement. He had less than 100. And some of those were paid actors. I never claimed he did augment rally audiences the same way. I merely speculated that this is possible.
Your reading comprehension failures do not constitute a claim on my part.

Sound science is a "left wing slant" now ? Actually I wish I was surprized.

You should eat Donald Trump. He represents the first in a new species related to Orangutans but without the intelligence.
BDSM and "good story" are not mutually exclusive. GOT has managed to combine them exceptionally well.
Not to mention Lazarus.
Irony doesn't work when the obvious meaning makes more sense.

98% whining. 2% raping and killing women

Unproven: not a synonymn for false.
A fallacy means this specific arguer failed to prove or disprove the conclusion. It doesnt mean the conclusion is wrong.
I highly doubt that he paid them all off. Just as i highly doubt he didnt pay some of them off.
