I don't go to Hahvahd, but I have sometimes had professors count big final projects instead of a big final written exam. Sometimes the class content just isn't amenable to written exams.
...One of the plot points for a sci-fi book I was thinking of writing but haven't yet.
Thriving Mars colony already established at time of alien invasion of Earth. Mars was already given plans for a military operation to help reclaim the homeworld, to be put into motion when the shit hits the fan. Operation Phoenix sounds like a cool name for that.:)
Manifestation of assent doesn't literally have to be a paper signature.
Your installer hack would violate meeting-of-the-minds against the publisher; whereas EULAs in their normal state may offend that principle against the consumer.
On my WinXP box (a Compaq Presario), if you hold down the front-case power button for a few seconds, the machine shuts down fairly quickly; I can see the open programs close down first.
At first this seemed ironic to me; wouldn't they want the likes of Wikileaks helping to feed them good stories? NYT and The Guardian were right behind the Afghanistan leak for instance.
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, ---except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted---, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
ah, the adversarial practice of making justice into a fight between opposing lawyers doesn't really make sense sometimes, as it throws another variable into the mix that's irrelevant to what the truth of the matter actually is.
There are 2 manufacturers of processors and graphics hardware because either no one else wants to enter the business or those who have attempted to do so have failed (ie. Transmeta).
Barriers to entry are definitional of a market that isn't perfectly competitive. Transmeta tried to run the blockade; most potential players would just avoid it entirely.

Why but a gaming machine when I get a device that is a gaming machine and a lot of other things?
Especially since I play classic games [Civ II being my current fave], so I don't even need a super-powerful gaming PC.
Similar end, different reasoning.
sounds like the gold-seller side of the equation.
Do Facebook games allow transfer mechanisms like those used by the MMORPG gold-sellers?
Sounds like the classic "Keeps them off the streets" argument. :)

1. He must really be an expert at that; Malcolm Gladwell must be doubly pleased.
2. Indeed, contract clauses involving sometihng illegal are unenforceable.

If one guy is in the store and is otherwise occupied.
Some of the stores really were "7 [AM] - 11 [PM]"
Nuclear meltdowns in all three of my cities with nuclear power plants in short succession.
Yeah, I've been playing too much of that game lately.
Moral of the story is the same: research Fusion Power as soon as possible.
(IRL, even fission nuke plants are a better idea, but I still foudn this analogy amusing, dammit.)

I've occasionally used dark nail polish to label metal objects though (as regular markers tend to rub off).
According to the most frothing of the opposed-to-homosexual-marriage ideologues, it's pets we'll be marrying, not food items. :P
I was helping people make it through the big PDF, and figured the header alone might have indicated *something*.
Also, the text of the section eventually refers to national emergencies in general.
Section 706 starts on page 323 of the linked PDF
"SEC. 706. [47 U.S.C. 606] WAR EMERGENCY--POWERS OF
PRESIDENT."
Prior art - that line was used at the end of a computing variation of the Abbot & Costello baseball sketch
I do that too; on many other things, the car beeps to make it obvious that there's *some* little thing along those lines to take care of.

that might be convenient phrasing covering for a de facto bill of attainder
Yeah, latest news report I saw said that the cops were still checking the building for explosives
Malthus immediately came to mind after hearing just a bit of this guy's manifesto on the news.
Have we stopped Malthus/proven him wrong, or have we just delayed the concepts?
I don't get what WGS means here, but those coordinates are near the tip of the Aleutian Islands chain
