That makes no sense whatsoever. Something in a patent document could, for other reasons, be copyrighted--for example, I could include a copy of a short story I wrote in a patent application (for example, in explaining how a short-story-rewriting machine worked). Would that deprive me of copyright over my short story?
Because a gallon of diesel =/= a gallon of gasoline, in terms of cost, weight, output of CO2 and other pollutants, energy produced, etc. If your interest is in lowering fuel cost, your comparison of miles per dollar of fuel. If you're thinking in terms of environmental policy, it should be pollutants released per mile driven.
It costs about $10 to $15 per gallon, and covers about 100 sq feet.. So its going to cost me about a months electric bill to paint it on. At a 10% savings it'll pay for itself, at about 3 months of summer per year, in about 4 years. That skips a whole lot of accounting "net present value of the money vs the loan interest rate vs a typical rate of return of my favorite PRPFX mutual fund". Also skips the cost of labor and the environmental cost of making the goop itself.
If you're going to be that precise about it, you should also count the full cost of not painting the roof, which is not just a lower energy bill but also less wear and tear on the cooling system (which is therefore likely to last longer). There's also the environmental cost of producing the energy that does the cooling. Moreover, in NYC in particularly many of the affect buildings would be apartment buildings, which have a much better ratio of residents-to-roof-surface than single-family homes (and even single family homes in NYC tend to be smaller than in most of the US).
Not if you still have it on your property. The police can go through the trash bag on the curb, but not the bin in your back yard. It sounds like this was still on site when he went through it.
Any cable made of a material whose production technique (for example, some new kind of fiber optic glass) is under patent but produced by someone who was not licensed to use that technique would be in the same situation.
And dont forget you cant buy their MP3s, TV shows, streaming video, and most of the kindle catalog outside of the US either.
Go fuck yourselves Amazon!
I'm sure they would be happy to make money off of you, but they'd have to but licensing rights for all that stuff from the copyright owners--separately for each national market.
The above information really needs to be in the description. Phrased in a way that's more useful to the customer, of course.
But most people don't know the specs of their Android phones, especially the details of the innards. So using the manifest system is probably the best way to filter incompatible devices out, and it does work for ordinary purchases (though I've found some apps that I can get from Amazon but not from the Android Market).
Who said anything about carpet? That's $5000 extra. I charge $100 to go in my chamber pot. There's a business model you can monetize! Make money at home by making your house into a public restroom!
When can we go back to just calling it the Internet?
When they're the same thing. Doing something "over the internet" could refer to doing it on a server that you control, connecting to it through interweb pipes. Whereas the example above is "cloudy" in the sense that the server is out there somewhere, perhaps not on a machine owned by the company you are interacting with.
Actually, wouldn't you have a tax issue regardless of whether you were running a business or not? If I had $20 in bitcoins that turned into $500,000, wouldn't that be $499,980 in taxable capital gains?
Not really. It's mainly backed by the expectation that the US will honor its debts in the future, and will be able to do so because the US economy is productive enough to provide the resources to do that. Precious metal (and foreign currency) reserves are relatively minor in the big picture.
You do realize that in the US, government-run healthcare and government-run insurance plans spend far less on administrative costs that private insurers?
All he has to do is LOOK and see for himself which finger is missing.
What if more than one finger is missing, say one was lost in an accident and another had to be amputated? How would a doctor tell them apart without that being recorded? What about things like broken bones that have been set? It could be diagnostically important to know which bones have been broken and how they were fixed, but that's not visible from the outside.
In Japan they pretty much all take cash--if they take deposits, that includes cash deposits (the exception being perhaps small cash dispensers that don't take deposits, perform transfers, etc.).

Colleges stopped doing that a few years ago.

Actually China has stricter fuel efficiency standards than the US does.
You can't directly compare diesel to gasoline.
The earth has been bombarded by meteors for billions of years. Therefore I should have no problem with someone throwing a red-hot boulder at me.
AFAIK Exchange is only available on enterprise Gmail servers, not on public Gmail.

Put them in the freezer (in a plastic bag) for a few days. Most of the bacteria that cause odors can't survive cold temperatures.

That will be $100, please.

If that analogy were a car it would be a broken-down Yugo.
