Giving legal advice is rather dangerous. She may have just entered herself into a client/lawyer relationship with anyone that was in the room and maybe even reads the article. IANAL so I have no idea what it implies, but it is on every single lawyer site that I read that a relationship has not been created.
Bad girlintrainig! You never, ever, EVER presume that just because someone is smart and intelligent they should agree with you -- or that, just because someone disagrees with you, they're either not smart or not intelligent.
Actually it has a name. It is called repugnance. You have to be really careful with it because if you argue philosophy it will be the first thing attacked. The only time I have seen a philosophy publish it as an argument was Bush's chair for stem cell research and that has to say a lot.
My current manager enjoys dismantling the hard disks after rather stressful meetings. I think anything after that is just fooling around. You would have to be seriously good at figuring out the sector information for that disk to get anything useful and even then its likely been ruined by dust and other platters in the pile.
That is why proxies exist. The internet is very adverse to central control. If people want it they will work hard to get it. You can't tell them what they can and can't do. There will always be a work around. Not to plug it, but UltraSurf seems to take care of any censorship I experience.
If this settlement doesn't pass, the legal fees will probably bankrupt it forever, causing [the Authors Guild] to disappear for good in a puff of ink-stained smoke.
Well now the Authors Guild's stance makes a lot more sense. This settlement is more self preservation then in the interest of the authors.
We believe that giving Google special treatment does not appear to be the way to foster a competitive market place to the benefit of you, our authors.
If it is only orphaned books then what market is that. Its not like they are trying to sell them to consumers now. They might as well release it to the public domain, but no author would go for that. They figure the little money they make licensing it is worth it.
Your analogy is bunk. What if I wanted to install the radio in another car. You can't do that with Windows they won't let you. I am all for copyright law as long as it objectifies the product. I have bought my "little box" of OS stop telling me when I can and can't sell what I have purchased. I would completely understand how copyright works then. Telling me that I don't own what I bought is just stupid or that I can only sell it a certain way. Informing me that my claim to it is invalidated by how I use it and not offer a refund. Then you have the EULA's with legal language that is not in laymans terms. How is the agreement in anyway valid. No one witnessed the agreement. I also hate how courts have been side stepping the issue and not testing the legitimacy of the EULA. I hope we as a people can get ourselves organized and come to a consensus.
Maybe PACER should provide hashs to ensure that files haven't been tampered with, its the standard method. This would stop RECAP from being tampered with as well as the official PACER download.
If legality is all it is then that is completely acceptable and they should amend their terms to state specifically that. Why do they need to use an umbrella when a rain coat will do just fine? If they said that pictures of illegal activities are controlled it would do exactly the same thing then and not have far reaching effects. Also, what right do they have to enforce this ownership. This is an unusual claim for these types of events. Most people could argue that this is inconsistent with expectations and not clearly explained which would nullify BMO's claim if its just small print.
Not with Harper in power. He likes to roll over and play dead for anything corporate. Fortunately its a minority and the senate is still there to protect the interests of the people of Canada. On a side note, I haven't seen anything from CBC so I don't know how many Canadians actually know this is happening. If I am wrong it would be nice to see a link to the article.
Doesn't the constitution allow the President to be impeached? Couldn't that be a form of self-enforcement? If you think the election has been coerced then protest to get the president removed. Unfortunately I don't think its ever clear cut who should win so you don't know when you have been cheated. Plus if there are totaling errors in a polling station aren't those votes considered tainted?
Your argument is severely flawed and your examples are misleading. You state that most technology is developed out of luck and is not consistently developed around the world. That was realistic in the time periods that your examples are from. Fortunately we are not still in those time periods. Communication and digital technology allows for rapid, accurate and consistent sharing of information globally. This means that most of the time any technology at the leading edge of science is available to a huge (compared to your time period) number of people. The most development retarding device currently in the world is political powers. Most countries protect the technology they have developed argue it is for national security. Until something like this becomes a realistic (hundreds of year) threat then I doubt the world powers would be willing to work together.
Open Source Software != Free software. This concept you adamantly describe is not about what you get paid. Its that when you purchase/acquire a program you get the whole program source code and all. This allows you to build on that software or ensure the software is safe from security holes. If the developer wants money then that is his choice and can be enforced, look at redhat. The GNU, for instance, makes specific references to ensure that it is possible.
I tried out http://www.blackdog.ie/google-bing/ to see if the issue is consistent. I tried Is Apple Evil? and got inaccurate results on Bing. It might be censoring or might be that bing sucks at open ended questions. I would not be surprised if its the latter or both.
Large non occluded diamonds are really expensive. The cost then exponentially decreases as size and transparency decrease. As well, small dark diamonds can be manufactured in a lab easily. These two factors lead to diamond dust being extremely cheap compared to its cousins in jewelry.
From the article it says that the father had to go to a police officer he knew to find out. I wouldn't be surprised either. What gets me is why they have to protest for this to be investigated. There are probably a bunch of kids that saw it happen not to mention the doctors and nurses. It should be a pretty clear cut case. I also don't know what the principal was thinking. You could not cover up that big of an incident.
Its a good thing that Apple does not wield government power then. I understand that a government regulating body should have the right to control my use of products. That is completely understandable since they are set up to ensure that my activities don't interfere with another persons well being. A business like Apple has no right what so ever to legally control what I do with a product they sold me.
Apple is trying to grand stand their argument to avoid being asked serious questions. The big one I want to know about this decision is do I own my phone or is there a legally supported TOS that I must follow to use a device I purchased. In other words do I own the phone out right or am I leasing it and Apple can seek legal recourse for perceived damages to the device. I don't like the connotations of what Apple is suggesting. I think it could have far reaching consequences that are extremely undesirable for consumers.
Does the Windows 7 RC have the DRM that Microsoft put in Vista or XP. I wouldn't be surprised that once Windows Seven ships it will be much slower then it is now because of all the DRM they shove onto the thing. It will be interesting to see, but I wouldn't make any bets on what it does until I have a production copy in my hands.
There are two factors when considering light. The number of photons and the wavelength of each photon. In this experiment the first one makes the light they are considering faint. The wavelength of those few photons is what makes them in the visible spectrum. Or another way to look at is ultraviolet light from the sun is fairly intense outside, but we don't see it because our eyes aren't designed to detect that wavelength. The neat part, that is probably most useful, is that it detects how the metabolism is doing. A rather in evasive test to see who is sick that could be set up in air ports or health facilities.
C++0x is a goofy name no wonder no one wants to work hard on it. How would you like that on your resume. C+=2 is much more consistent with the language and is much easier to read.
It does not matter what the government puts forward in a sense. If I remember correctly the last bill was struck down by the courts because they saw the potential for the legal system to be flooded with cases not in the interest of protecting our free and democratic society(might be wrong). They should be getting input from the legal system as well as the public or the same thing will happen again. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
I know HP does it. I don't know of anyone else, but they tell you not to send the hard drive in with your computer for warranty items. I myself would want to stand there while the technician fixed it. I don't let contractors into my house when I'm not there and this is the exact same thing.

Exactly the US government's interest is in not in that they get news, but the news that they will get.

They have a medication for that. They call it placebo.
