No it doesn't. At its most simple level - without all the moral rights to be identified as the author stuff - copyright is the right to make a copy. The clue is kind of in the name.
You can't get even get Virgin fibre in this bit of Cambridge (i.e. Chesterton). Well if you believe their website you can't. It may be wrong. Mind you their website doesn't think our house exists. It thinks the one next door, which is exactly the same age and design, exists, but not this one.
They have to use OpenReach unless they have LLU at your exchange, in which case they use their own equipment. ISPs with LLU can generally be spotted because they're cheaper and/or faster (because they're not paying BT's wholesale metered rates).
Hmm, there are still places with poor broadband coverage, or they may mean "high speed" broadband (e.g. FTTC), which only a fraction of the UK has. I don't have it and I'm on what is laughably called the Cambridge Science Park Exchange. We don't even have 21CN enabled on this exchange and only one LLU provider.
Cynically I suspect BT of deliberately not rolling out 21CN or FTTC on this exchange, because they don't want any of the small to medium sized companies on the park switching from high cost leased lines. Not that 21CN is much use, it was out of date before they even started rolling it out.
I'm one of those stereotype geeks who doesn't like talking to people, outside a small circle of friends (and I find talking to them stressful at times). I'd rather just e-mail support with details and get an answer "whenever". If they need more information, they can ask for it.
I do not need everything in my life to happen *now*. I am perfectly content for things to take a little time, so long as no-one is taking the piss. Which is just as well, because IT at work will get round to dealing with your problem whenever they feel like it and you can't actually phone them anyway, you have to submit support tickets.
Valve projects run on the basis of "work on what you think brings value to our customers and to the company", so someone would have to have decided "I think a Linux port is a good idea, so I will start working on one" and encouraged other people to join the project. All of their desks are on wheels, so people working on stuff can move their desks together - they just unplug from where they are and plug in where they go.
Valve has a flattened hierarchy, there are no managers. Team leaders aren't appointed, they just happen because the naturally turn out to be the team leader. Remuneration is based on perceived worth by your peers. Their employee handbook is an interesting read - the PDF of it was publicly available, last time I checked.
The rules about compensation generally are designed so as to give them as little as possible. They even charge you board and lodging if you were in prison and are subsequently cleared and given compensation.
There's at least one video on YouTube of it taking off and setting off car alarms at Heathrow. Night too, so you can see the afterburners.
Given the cruising speed was Mach 2, I suspect at 1,000 feet it was probably a fair bit louder than a regular jet. Briefly. Also given Israel has actually used sonic booms as the basis for a form of psychological warfare, I suspect it would be plenty loud enough to wind people up.
Southampton Council is a Unitary Authority; they sit at district level, which is one up from the lowest level, which is Parish Councils.
Parish Councils generally end up being responsible for things that no-one else higher up wants to run, like allotments and public lavatories. They're frequently appointed by unopposed elections too, because very few people want to be on them - they end co-opt people to them to fill in the gaps.
If I had to trawl the stereotypes, I suspect the welfare trash group may also have a reasonable co-incidence with the group who support the Republican party's slightly more fundamentalist and nationalistic stand point on various issues.
Although that's my perception has a furrin type looking in. I'm an evil European social liberal and economic conservative, so they both look pretty fundamentalist and nationalistic to me.
I suspect the field required to degauss a rare earth magnet might also be harmful to the person. There may also be a problem with toxicity - I seem to recall most rare earth metals have moderate toxicity...
Virgin Media isn't owned by Sky - Sky Broadcasting is one of their main competitors. Virgin Media was created through mergers of NTL, Telewest, and Virgin Mobile. The also co-owned UKTV, along with BBC Worldwide, but I think they sold their share in it last year.
I suspect the firms fully adhered to the export regulations and obtained the permits required.
In fact having just skimmed over TFA, it seems Privacy International are mostly trying to point out that the export control list needs updating (at least in their opinion). Egypt most likely did not appear on the control list, so the firms were fully entitled to sell to them.
Sir Humphrey wrote an extremely vague letter for the Minister that, whilst saying there was a problem they might want to look at, said it in such a way that it could easily be misinterpreted as not being something the Prime Minister need concern them self with, thus covering both the Minster's and the Prime Minister's arses, should it ever come out in public.
An incoming PM immediately faces a vote of confidence though, in the form of the budget vote. If they lose that then it all starts again with someone else being asked to try and form a government. The budget vote, in practice, demonstrates that the appointed prime minster has the backing of the majority of MPs.
I was wondering that. I only have three things pinned to my task bar: Thunderbird, Chrome, and X-Chat. The other set of applications I use a lot (my dev tools) are pinned to the top of the Start Menu. Anything else gets launched via the "All Programs" menu under the start button. And I like to keep my desktop as uncluttered as possible - half the time it just gets used for dumping stuff I'm working with, then removed when I'm done with it.
Nope. Junction points aren't even creatable via the GUI, you have to the know the CLI command to do it. Well you also have to download the tool to do it, because I don't think it's included with Windows by default.

Debugging production problems is the development team's problem where I work, ditto for anything related to databases used by our software.

Steam -> Settings -> Interface -> un-check "Notify Me..."

Ouch. We can at least get 7-8mbps most days.

Small claims court in the UK is for claims up to £5,000, so it's almost certainly the correct place for most claims relating to a game.
I don't think the UK even has legislation to support class action suits in the first place.
Couldn't give you exact figures, but I've seen values of around £45k to £50k for 18 months in prison.

I suspect the argument would be that he had licence to do so from the copyright holder.

NTFS junction points. They work well for certain things, but invite a world of pain if used for others.
If you want to get fired for circumventing company network policy there are less laborious ways of doing it.
